How to keep backlight "on" HTC Pure? - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need my backlight to stay on for 2 min. I set the option in settings, battery. However the phone will continually default to 10 sec. I change back to 2 min. the phone sets it back to 10 sec. Endless cycle! HIGHLY ANNOYING!
I had the same issue on my Tilt. There were workarounds. I've been searching but cannot find a fix for the Pure.
Anybody help out?

Which ROM?

Same problem on my diamond2. Latest official rom 2.53.405.5 (76952) WWE .
I try to change the default 10sec to 30 sec, but my diamond2 sets it back to 10sec.

Same problem here on Touch Diamond2.
After a soft reset, the backlight timeout is set back to 10 sec. The timeout setting is "forgotten" every time the phone is restarted.
I'm running the official ROM 2.16.479.1 WWE. Has anyone found a way to fix this?

Change of Backgrounddisplay don't Apply?

When I go into Settings and change the time of: Change backgrounddisplay when unit is not been in use.... Default is 10 seconds.
If I change this to 30 Seconds and make a soft reset this setting get's back to 10 seconds. Annoying.
Anyone know how to solve this problem?
The Diamond Tweak and S2U2 applications is the only one installed extra...
Thanks in advance.

Backlight randomly defaults back to 10 Sec

Hi Guys,
Although I set my backlight to stay on for 2 minutes, it randomly defaults back to the 10 second timeframe.
Why does it do this and can it be prevented?
I have the same problem. I did a hard reset, and it was fine, until I hit lock, now it's happening all over again. I adjusted it in kaisertweaks, but it just ignores it. Screen always dims after 10 seconds.
Check backlight and power setting for both battery and mains.
If you are also using S2U2, check the backlight settings there also. Whatever it says on S2U2, it will override the other settings.
Hope this helps.

Backlight settings ALWAYS defaults to 5min

I have a tytn 2.
I set the backlight to go off after 30 secs but it ALWAYS seems to default back to 5 mins.
I have SBP mobile shell & S2U2 installed.
Any ideas please ?
oppostie problem on tilt
I have the opposite problem on my WM6.0 Tilt with stock ROM.
After every soft reset (daily, because I have a daily scheduled backup) it always reverts to the minimum setting of 10 seconds. I'd love to get it to stick at the maximum of 5 minutes.
Yep, mine keeps going back to 10 sec. but mine does it everytime I push the power button to wake it up. quite annoying when you are trying to read websites and the backlight goes dim instantly.

How to change backlight timeout when locked?

Hi,
Is there any way to change backlight time out when the phone is locked(long red button press)??? Normally my phone is set up to turn of backlight after 40 sec -and I wanna KEEP it. I need to shorten that time to 5 sec only when the phone is locked(when accidentally I press any button in the pocket it will be unnecessary draining battery for 40 sec. Please can anybody help me?
Bump, I would like a solution to this also. Seems like my Diamond used to time out after ten seconds when locked, but it doesn't do that anymore. Now it uses the settings in the Setting:System/Power/Backlight, which I have set at 45 seconds I believe. I think installing Phone Alarm might have something to do with it. I disabled Phone Alarms power settings, but still same problem.
Anyone know the fix for this?
Nevermind, I just started using S2U2, and I can adjust this the way I need it. Thanks.

Backlight time out disabled..??

I was driving with Tomtom on my diamond 2 when suddenly the screen blanked out. Exactly after 30 minutes the screen went black. I pressed the power on button again, and tomtom was in the taskmanager list, so I could enable it rather quickly again.
I checked in Settings - system - energy - advanced and the settings were default. I did some testing, and without external power after 30 seconds the screen blanked out again. So, on external power after 30 minutes, and after 30 seconds without power the topaz shuts down the backlight.
This wasn't the case; I use tomtom a lot. Did a hard-reset after all, but no succes. The backlight/screen goes off on the same time, regardless of the settings. regardless of the used program. (my diamond 1 first dimmed the backlight, and after a short period the screen went completely black. The 2 doesn't do this..)
Anyone some ideas??
What ROM are you using?
If you have used a cooked rom, it might be something in there causing it...the 6.5 rom I have from Tom seems to do a similar thing but within 10 seconds the dim kicks in even though the power settings say otherwise
Do let us know!
I have the original HTC (Dutch) Rom.
After some testing, it seems that only Tomtom gives this problem, although no matter what settings I use, the backlight dims at 30 secs/ 30 minutes (without/with external power).
When I use Coreplayer, the screen stays on.
I just upgraded to the new htc rom (21-07-2009) but the problem persists. I just asked HTC; will post their response.
