Backlight bug

Hi all,
i have the Kaiser for a week, and was thinking the batterry autonomy isn't especially amazing..
Then doing some research, i've found out that that despite the backlight setting set to be turned off after 30 sec, it was NOT turned off.
Switching setting to 1 min doesn't help either.
Setting it to 10 sec DOES work, the backlight turns off after 10 secs, BUT turns back ON after various seconds (sometimes +/- 11 secs, sometimes after 21 seconds...), then 10 secs later again off, etc etc... (cycle forever).
I did removed from the today screen both SPB Mobile shell and HTC Home (today screen = blank). But the problem is still there...
so the questions :
1) Does anybody experience that (it took me a full week of use to note this... can you try it on your Kaiser ?)
2) Any idea/solution to fix this ?
Best Regards,
Mike.

Just letting you know, that mine works as it should.

I dont have that bug .... but another bug:
After soft-reset, the battery backlight will be set to 10 seconds.
No clue yet why that happen.

When having issues like that try a hard reset and do not use a back up just set everything back up by hand. I found that most apps still are not ready for WM6 just yet since it really is a new OS even though we have had it for what seems like a very long time now.

When you set the back light to turn off, it doesn't actually turn off, instead it drops to minimum brightness. If you are in darkish room and so have the backlight set to minimum anyway, it looks like it isn't going off.
This is by design for Windows Mobile 6 devices, the Toshiba G900 was exactly the same. I can only guess it is because the screens are not trans-reflective, so they dim to the lowest level so you can still make out what is on the display and can tell it is still on, rather than in standby. This makes the behaviour seem similar to those moving from trans-reflective displays as while the backlight could go out completely, you could still make out what was on the display.

Can can I prevent my screen from waking up?

It wakes up everytime I get a text message and sometimes seems to wake up for no reason. This didn't always happen but I can't find and option to disable this.
Anyone know what I can do about it?

i dont think so it might be better to leave it alone.

On my phone, every time I receive a text message, the buttons light up for about half a second then starts to vibrate and play the ringtone. It's been doing that since the whole CnD thing and I've just ignored it since it didn't seem to be causing any issues.

You could go into the SMS app and shut off notifications from there. Might make a nice, powersaving script.
I don't know why the phone powers up without a notification. I have found I can't turn on my Wifi when I turn on Background data and it's been off for quite a while (still have autosync off). My data connection is showing heavy useage. The big G is watching us all. It makes me wonder if something is coming in to your phone from somewhere to wake it.
If it's killing you, you could try living without apps for a day you suspect might be doing it, or just schedule a kill at intervals if you can't uninstall it.

You could go into settings and change the screen timeout to 15 Sec so if it does come on, it wont stay on long..

[Q] Normal for the GNote screen to warm up?

Hello,
I have had noticed this for a while but though it was normal. Till I am starting to notice that it is taking the GNote screen longer and longer to "warm up".
What is happening is when I leave the GNote in deep sleep for a while (the longer i keep it in deep sleep the longer it takes to warm up) and then wake it up, I get a green screen, but after a few seconds the green colouring will slowly fade away until it is back to normal.
If I put the note to sleep and open it back up in about 2-5 seconds, it will wake up perfectly fine but as soon as I start leaving it in sleep mode for about 5 mins, I can start noticing the green tint when waking it up. When I wake it up after 5 mins, it takes about 1 second to get back to normal, when when I leave it for a good 3 hours, it takes about 5-6 seconds before the screen return to normal.
I just want to know if this is "normal" as I can not find any thread on this forum or in google about this. None of my friends has this phone so I am unable to check theirs. Sorry about the long explanation, I just want to make sure you guys know what I am talking about.

Nope....that doesnt sound right....ive had my phone 4 a month now and cant say i saw ths issue....sounds like a faulty screen to me.
If ur on warranty....ask 4 a replacement. If not, try changing the rom.

I tried a number of things to see if it fixes the problem. I first tried using the K7 deodexed rom, then I tried changing the kernel to Abyss. Now I am running Rocket ROM with Abyss 3.5b.
But I do remember that I didn't have this problem in the first week. I think I started noticing this after I rooted my phone when it was on XKK9 but I wouldn't think rooting my phone would cause something like this unless it was just coincident.

I guess no one has any idea why this might be happening. I might send an email to Samsung and see what they think.

Is my phone broken?

Hi Fellow Citicens
My screen turns off occuationally. The screen just fade off during couple of seconds. Especially if I have navigation turned on, screen will fade away less than after15 minutes.
I need to shut phone off and make it little cooler if I want to get screen back.
So what do you think. Could it be sw problem or is my screen/sensor just broken and I need to get phone fixed by professional service?
Thanks for your support,

Take it to service for repair. Just to be sure everything is covered. But i think it is H/W problem. Not sure, but i can only guess.....

Screen timeout

Hi guys,
I've been trying to find a solution to this issue for a while now and it's driving me crazy. I love my ROG II but my only complaint is that the screen timeout is SUPER short. Its like 10 seconds and then my screen goes dark. I have to constantly be touching my screen so it doesn't go to sleep while I'm watching a video or reading an article. Even when I'm trying to show someone a photo or anything on my screen they always say "Oh, it turned off". So annoying! I went through all the settings but can't find anything! Please tell me I'm missing it and that there is actually a solution to this! Thank you so much!

You should be able to change the time out in settings > display > sleep

It's currently set to 10 mins. Still goes to sleep after about 10 seconds of inactivity. ??
