backlight - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

im just wondering after a while of not using my phone the backlight gets reverted all the way dim so i cant see anything on my phone. Luckily i have it on my today screen and i can see just enough to fix it. is there any way to fix that perm so it doesnt do that.

maybe see this thread - doesn't contain a solution, though:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=51415

I had a similar problem struggling with PocketZenPone and found following issue: There is a checkbox in the energy settings: switch on backlight by tapping on screen (i dont know the exact phrase because i have got a german ROM). Double check if it is checked. If not check it and your problems are gone. Post the result here please for the other guys.
Thanx.

well the thing is ive done that before and well it still reverts back to that setting after a while

Do you mean you have double checked that issue and recognized that the option is not checked although you have checked it.
Do you mean it is unchecked automatically? If so this is a crucial information for all.

I had the same problems some days ago,
Didnt work to check/uncheck softreset.
I went to registry and did it there, and now it works.

johnny which key did you go to

I´m so sorry, i dont remember.
But it was in hkcu\controlpanel\backlight
Try change backlightontap and batterytimeoutunchecked.
That sounds good.
I would revert them and softreset then change them the regular way again (if its not ok.)
So probably i did it at that time.

ok this is getting real annoying this didnt start happening til i upgraded to 2.21. Now everytime i go into standby it turns my back light to very dim and i gotta go and reput it back to bright is there a program that might be doing it.
i have wisbar, resco explorer, resco pocket radio, pocketbreeze, phm reg editor. installed any one else have any problems with those messing with the backlight
i also have memaid, pocketzenphone 6

nm i figured it out thank you all for yourhelp

Wizard screen randomly turns on

If my phone is sitting by my computer, and I'm about to get a Text Message or Phone call, everyone knows the dii dii dii, noise that your speakers/monitor make/do.
Well, it doesn't even do that noise or anything, the screen will just light up then go away. Normally it'll light up if I'm about to get a text message or a phone call and then a second later it would come through.
Well it doesn't. It just lights up.
Anybody else have this problem, and know why it does it?
I have the same problem, usually I notice it when only after I've just used it. Example, I've used it, switch it off.. then a few seconds later, it switch on by itself with no reason. If I were to switch it off again, it'll be alright.
I have a problem with backlight though, I suspect that is to do with PhoneAlarm though, since I've got this problem after installing it. The backlight will sometimes be set to 0 and have to manually set it back to the 25% I use.
Hmm. Well I know that it's not only my problem.
I an using Faria's WM6 rom.

Most of the time it is other stuff on the phone or setting changes. There are plenty of threads on the wake-up "issue". Try searching.

Bluetooth Fix

I think I’ve solved the Bluetooth problem that everybody seems to be having.
After changing this registry setting below, my Bluetooth have not switched off on me once.
Hope this helps
[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\]
"Bluetooth"=dword:00000000

Looks like it could definitely help! I'm imagining this is translated to something like "Do NOT control the power state of Bluetooth".
I'll make the reg change, reboot, and report my findings after a couple of days. I usually ran into the Bluetooth switching off problem after having Wi-Fi enabled.
Thanks for this!
I have no problems with enabling WI-Fi since I applied this reg setting. I’ve also noticed that if you switch your Bluetooth off and back on again the reg setting that is applied defaults back to the original setting, so it will have to be set again

Thanks for sharing as I am experiencing the same problem of Bluetooth turning off every time I reboot my phone.
Sent in my phone to the Local Service Centre and they reflash the ROM but still encounter same problem.
I even bought another X1 to try it out and still same problem so it is confirm that it is the firmware problem not just my phone.

That also makes sense, i suppose it's just a status entry then...too bad. I just hope that the eventual fix from SE is in a .cab package so that we don't have to reflash. My unbranded ROM is running sooo perfect right now...with the exception of this very common issue!
It seems that the Bluetooth does not always stay on as I experience it being turn off if I go into the Connection/Bluetooth/Mode menu.
Does that mean that we do not go into the menu to check on the settings then it will not be turn off again?

Mine just did the same so looks like we’ll have to keep away from Bluetooth setting :/ have to reset reg setting yet again

Yes, really hope that the next ROM upgrade will resolve such issue as I heard that the SE Team already know of this bug.

You can use the Resco Registry editor or the one comes with SKTOOLS.
Hi!
The problem of mine that Buetooth Hedset buttons (play/pause, ffd) wake it up the telephone from a sleeping manner. How is it possible to repair this?
Thank You!

Display dims but does not turn off after timeout

First of all sorry for opening a new thread.....did search but didn´t find anything.....and I usually get annoyed myself by people asking question that have already been answered....
Problem: once in a while - and in no understandable pattern - my HD does not switch to standby after the set timeout (60s for me). Soft-reset does not solve the issue, but it disappears after a while (several times turning the display on/off). Have not changed/installed anything recently. First blamed it on S2U2.....uninstalled and problem seemed to be solved, but only until today - now it´s back in all its glory....
Already compared the - what I think - relevant registry values to my Diamond registry....no suspects there.
And no, there is no video-, audio-, or navigation program running in the background, as the problem manifests itself right after a restart/soft-reset....
Any ideas?
Thanks!!
mine does the same...I've just gotten used to it.

Hmmm....I don´t want to get used to it, because whenever the device wakes up (missed call, reminder, alert etc.) the display stays on (altough dimmed) using up battery power....
Same problem here with my Diamond.
Any news or ideas on this?
Same for me, and it's a very big problem!
I've read in some of the other posts that it may have to do with the activation of auto-screen lock that is included in the ROM, but this isn't turnd on in my case!
I use my Blackstone professionally, which means I need as much battery power as possible on one charge! At the moment this problem makes the device last for about half a day during work!
If anyone has a fix, I would appreciate hearing about it

Display stays dimmed

I know I know there are tons of topics about this
But here this out. I ve got the problem for about a week and hope some one can help me out.
After 30 secs my screen goes to dimmed-fase ( correctly as I setted )
And after 1 min. it suppose to auto turn it off but, it does try to by it only locks it down so the screen stays dimmed and doesnt go in standby ( total black screen and stuff )
Any one know what this might be?
Ive check the power settings and I have ticked the auto turn off after a ... minutes not used :S
So hope some one can help me out cause it drains my poor battery
sounds like a software issue, perhaps someone here knows the correct registry settings applicable to powersaving
I hope some one knows Cause I thought there were more folks that are looking for this
is it plug in for recharging? if yes, it's normal, during rechargind, it dimms out after 30 mins or so (please check both options, to dim out after 1-2 mins.)
Nope just normal use, so I sure hope some one knows the right registry setting to it
When plugged in USB and sync with PC, the Touch HD stays on with dimmed backlight. No matter how long the settings to turn off the backlight, the backlight still keep on its minimum level.
This is totally different with my Hermes, which the backlight can turn completely off after some time.

I noticed that happens even when using a bluetooth to sync. No matter cable or not, connected activesync keeps light on.
Arrggh? Does no one know the right registry key value to it ? its quit annoying
*bump*
Really no one knows anything about this
same problem for me
I use LumOS, are you using it too ?
I removed LumOS, and everything is good now
Do you have MobileMagic installed?
I did and it had 'Stay On' activated in its settings which meant it always stayed on!
Might be the case here too!

Even if my HD has no LumOS or Mobile Magic (from hard reset), the problem (backlight stays on during USB sync) still exist.
P.S. My previous X1 has the same behaviour...

Well I had it installed but I removed it later one cause I didnt liked it too much
But the problem still occurs so there most be a registry value that didnt change with the install :\ or something
I've looked up some registry value's but really dont know which one i've have to edit
or if I even have looked up the right one
BatteryTimeOut 30
BatteryTimeoutTemp 0
BatteryTimeoutUnchecked 0
Maybe some one that still has the function that the screen goes black after a while.
Can look up the registry value's ? here is the path I dont know if i'm looking at the right point:
HKCU\\ControlPanel\Backlight
Maybe some one is kind enough to list all of there value in this map ?
PS:
My problem is that my blacklight doesnt go fully to black and that's when using it normal. Not connected to anything or something .
It usualy goes to black after a XX amount of time. but that doesnt happen any more :\
Dang no one is offering his self up too look up those registery valves
Guys, the fix is simple. You must have turned on the Autolock feature using HD Tweak or Advanced Config.
If yes, just turn it off.
I have got the autolock function on, did it via HDtweak
Havent check it via Advanced config.
But I dont know what you mean with the last sentence?
Should I turn it on or off?
Edit:
Well dang you were right, i've turned off the autolock function.
And now the display does go to black.
But I find it strange that it worked nicely a few weeks ago and now the problem occurs
so any idea?
*bump*
still no one has found the solution?
wrong reply

Screen Problem

I already posted in the sticky but didn't get any answer.
My problem is one that occurs quite often how I see but still I don't find any solution.
The problem is that the screen of my HD doesn't show up anymore when it was in standby and I left it for some minutes. It's on because I can still change the loudness and I can feel the buzz of the buttons when touching one. It takes me some luck and time to bring it completly to life again by pressing over and over the ON/OFF button. When I bought it the problem occured very rare but now it's happening all the time when it is in standby.
I never did install any roms (because until now I have no idea what it is about ), the only things I have done so far:
Installed TomTom 7.450.9028 and these two registry edits:
under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\POP3 i renamed the mailtrns.dll to mailtrns2.dll (it's a fix for the email because my GMX account didn't work with POP3 on my phone) and the other was setting the value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/GPSIntermediateDriver/Drivers/GPSOneDevice/PollIntervall, to get better GPS-Signal
Everything else is just original, like it was when I bought it some days ago.
Is there anything I can do? Or do I have to send it in?
I really like the phone and it's working perfect except to this point so I'd like to stick to it. Hope you have some advice,
THX in advance,

Have you tried going to Start > Settings > All Settings > System > Power > Advanced and making sure device isn't set to turn off after a period of time?
Thx for reply but doesn't that mean my phone will be always on? Or can I set it then manually (by pressing ON/OFF) in standby and turn on again without problems?

Yes to both, it will remain on unless you manually put it into standby by pressing on/off
Ok, I try it out now. Hope it works that it comes on out of standby without problems.
Wow until now for exactly 1 hour and 33 minutes no problems. Seems to work, hope it will continue like this, if so I could kiss you
