Hi. Just bought a Kaiser after moving on from my old Hermes.
Seems like there are a few differences in the way the button lights operate. It seems that when a call or SMS/alert comes in the button lights (call end/pickup etc) do not come on - only the screen light does.
Does anyone know how to make these lights come on as well?
Cheers.
No-one else have this problem?
I concur this is true, but I don't know how one would solve it. To me it isn't a problem.
Not a problem here either...
...Just press the OK button under the THUMP WHEEL when you get a call if you need the buttons to light up.

Now this is probably me missing an obvious setting BUT - I liked to set my Hermes to have the keyboard lit up all the time when open. But I've tried various combinations of settings and cannot get the Kaiser's to stay on. In pitch darkness I fumble a bit as it goes off after only a few seconds and anyway I like that blue glowy keyboard even in daylight (not as bright as Hermes though ) Anybody got a setting to make it stay on??

Oooh I like asking newbie questions again

I have posted on this subject both here and at Modaco (See my Front panel lights post) and no one seems to reply so I can only assume that no one can find a solution.

hi guys
I have Att tilt and since 3 days a go my phone keep turning on by it self. any ideas how to fix this? Thanks.
i'm defnitely sure u need to call in an exorcist. for the time being, pls place the phone within a ring of garlic cloves
It's probably the instant messenger receiving an SMS message with someone signing on/off or you getting a message.
if you are using a case with a magnet in it it will cause it to turn on like if you were sliding it open to fix this download kaiser tweaks and turn off the option to turn on when slide open or keep away from magnet cases

This is indeed the only thing i can imagine is happening. Strong radiowaves can turn on/off devices and even uses them..... Just to give a exemple, I work on a warship and we had a 250KW powercable with some leaks in the isolation. This causes some of the other equipment to power on and even use it while all safeties were still on!
thanks guys for your help. i will try to disable the sliding thing. i hope it works.

My brother wanted to give me his old Wizard holster which closes with a magnet. I told him the magnet might cause my screen to turn on. Sure enough, as soon as the phone got near the holster the screen came on and switched to landscape just as it would if I had flipped out the keyboard.
Guess that's why my Kaiser came with a holster that uses velcro.
This has been driving me nuts since I got my Tilt! The slightest sliding movement of my screen would wake the phone up.
Thanks for the easy fix with the Kaiser Tweak setting!
Hi guys,
I did the Kaiser Tweak setting but still same issue from before. every like 5 to 10 min my phone comes on by itself.
any other sugestions?
now im having the same problem. wtf is going on. no magnets near my phone. it sucks lol
well today I flashed my phone again (for the hundredth time...nothing new here) it was either open touch 5 lite or itspoppa rc5 that i had when it started...but my directional buttons on the d-pad went out 1 by 1 over the course of a few hours. i thought my up button was just broken at first...until i realized it worked if i slide the keyboard open. now when the phone is closed the d-pad doesnt work at all it doesn't even register that im pressing buttons to extend the backlight time...but if i slide open the keyboard magically they all work?! i've flashed to t-mobile stock and had the same problem and took out the flash card and flashed to open touch 5.2 and still have the same problem. the keys work because its PERFECT when the keyboard is open? i dont understand whats going on! ive searched and googled forever and never heard of anything like this =[ idk what it could be from?! could anyone please help me? thankyou
you can delete my thread in the rom development section i didn't mean to post there.
it sounds like the ribbon cable is loose between the two halves of the phone. but I could be wrong
i'd be willing to open the phone up and take a look...had to do that to a laptop to fix the screen before the ribbon vga was loose. does anyone know how exactly to open up the wing? lol. if anyone can point me towards a tutorial thatd be great.
hi!
Im asking myself if this is possible with the diamond... been using an iphone 3g for the last days and when you make a call and put the phone to your ear the screen turns off automatically - but then when you remove the phone from your ear the iphone switches the screen on again automatically.
any chance to do this with the diamond?

use tweak 3.2 for diamond that has all the functions u want just as u said.
As far as I recall.. no it doesn't
An app could switch the screen back on when the phone is <45 degrees while on a phone call.
Surur
Usually the word fruittyphone gives me the Creeppsss
But I must say this is a great idea!
Anyhow I cant break tradition:
FruityPhone SUKKKKSSSS
i guess there's no chance to achieve that function with a registry tweak?
some say this has been fixed
but the last rom that had been fixed still don't work
so i think we will have to live with this a little longer
No. The iPhone has a proximity sensor. It detecs your face without touching it. Does anybody know where I can make a free website?

This would be nice, if someone could make an app that would turn screen off and on during the call with light sensor. When you start talking on the phone , you put it to your ear, that covers light sensor, an the app could turn off the screen, and when you remove it from the ear the light sensor gets exposed to the light and could turn the screen on. Now when I think about it, dont know how it would work at night
Hey guys, have you tried this yet

Hope this will do the trick for you
the iphone switches the screen off when it goes to your head then turns back on when u take it away. is there a simple app for this??
Phone lacks the proximity sensor the iPhone has. Fortunately, it has a plethora of other useful features (a keyboard, picture messages, etc.)

To add on to that the phone also goes to sleep when the call is connected and its just a matter of pressing the power button to get it to wake up again.
mine doesnt
Well mine has always went black when it goes up to my ear, but it would be nice if it came back on when removed from my ear.. although we dont have a proximity sensor, i dont see why it coulnt work with the gsensor/accelerometer. all it would have to do is go on when the phone is put back in the upright position

is there a setting for this?
is it possible to in fact use the light sensor? it obviously recognizes something when it turns off, maybe write up something saying "when dark below 'x' threshold, turn off screen. when bright above threshold, screen on. you would have to press the screen somewhat snugly to your face, but it sure beats nothing.

It should be possible, but no one has done anything with the light sensor of turning it back on. I'm thinking that the polling of the light sensor turns off when the screen is in standby. If we can somehow get that to work in only incall (so it doesn't have battery issues), then it should work, when it goes from little light to more light, it should act as close to phone to far away from phone.
One could even use 2 sensors for it? Maybe the Light-Sensor and the G-Sensor. So when u bring the phone to your ear the light gets dark an the position upright. (the phone turns the screen off) And as soon as it get brighter and the position is change to normal (whatever that is ) it turns back on.
I reall would love to write something like that. But so far i have no clue of writing anything for that phone. Does anyone know a tutorial for writing software for a pda?
Thx
Come on guys this would be soooo great

It doesn't actually do that when you put it up to your ear. It's a WinMo setting to put the phone in standby after a call is launched or received. What you preceive as behavior is actually a timing thing.
The guy from pocket shield managed to combine these two sensors, g-sensor and light sensor, to work together as locking/unlocking behavior.
maybe some g-sensor and lumos code can handle this thing... and create one cab solution here...
if some one could write this code it would be an AWESOME addition to the Phone. I would personaly love this as im sure many others would.
Thanks.
this is a bit late, but here's a cool app that i've found...
