Backlight settings when charging

Mornin Everyone
I recently got the ORA desktop cradle from expansys, cause I like to have my PDA charging next to my keyboard - it's a hangover from upgrading from an iPAQ. I like to have the machine permanently on and the screen backlight on full when it's the cradle.
Anyway I can't seem to make the setting in the both the backlight & power control applets to stick. I've unticked the turn off backlight box on the external power tab of backlight applet and unticked turn off device box on the advanced tab of the power applet.
This works for a day and then the next morning the boxes are ticked.
It doesn't seem to be connected with soft reset's though seem to stick through them.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
Cheers David

I had the same problem, hard reseted and problem gone
I think it was caused because I played a lot with some registry values, in order to make a custom cab with my prefered settings, and possibly I changed something that caused this.
Have u restored your settings form a backup? this can also be the cause, I guess...

Hi Pof
I've not restored any backups, but I do run programs like tweaks2k and wisbar....
It's really odd cause I soft reseted earlier and the setting's where ok and now after lunch they've gone back to being ticked.
Cheers David

Yes, I was having exactly the same issue you describe... I don't know how to fix it, but I got my backlight settings right again after hard reset and never had the issue again.

Of course the other problem that I had was that I installed phonealarm - the profiling program from Pocketmap http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html, which has a ability to set the state of the screen dependant on what profile you are in ...
Doh!
Cheers David

The Flash of The Camera

Hey, sup?
The flash in my HD2 camera doesn't work! nothing I did, turn it to Auto, or always, or never, and then Auto again, nothing worked.
Any ideas?
tnx,
Elioravr.

is battery level lower than 25(or maybe 30)% because it gets auto disabled.

No, it always doesn't work... also when the battery is full...

hey, I had this issue too. Mine seemingly resolved itself, although I wanted to blame the BsB camera modes tweak.
Do you have any other software running/installed?
Have you tried a reset?

Happen to me also , I solved it by using clear storage in the setting option. Remember restore all you data and contacts before using this option. I recommend to use ''microsoft my phone'' as you will restore your exact files and contacts setting.Using clear storage will format and install new WM OS.

I've tried to turn off and turn on my phone, and it didn't work...
how do i save everything in my phone if i want to do hard reset?

install a flashlight program to check if the flashLED will work that way, If not, your set might be broken.

can someone give me a download of a flashlight program, please?

[Q] Is there any way to manual change to landscape mode?

OK folks. Here's my problem. As best as I can tell, my acclerometer has gone bad. My poor old MyTouch will not auto-rotate. I have tried to wipe, reflash, change roms, wipe rotate settings, opened case and checked all connections, beat it with a hammer, yelled and screamed, and even blamed my wife. Is there any way, that anyone knows of, to lock the poor thing in landscape mode. Even if it is just in the text messaging app of any rom. Any ideas or help would be greatly helpfull and apreciated.

PBK gestures not working.

Hi!
Got my Priv(stv100-4) yesterday,and after setting it up i realised that pbk gestures is not working.
It is enabled in settings,the phone has the latest updates and all blackberry apps are also updated. I also tried the "factory reset" several times.
Everything else is working perfect so i don,t see what causes this. Is there a setting somewhere that i am missing or did i just get a defective device?
If possible i would reflash the firmware,but haven,t found a way to do that.
Sombody have a good advise for me?
Was hoping to avoid sending it back for replacement...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If as you say it is enabled in settings, then it just has to work. Have you tried turning gestures off, restarting phone, then turning it back on?
Also you can try pressing VOL UP BUTTON and VOL DOWN BUTTON for at least 10 Second. Device should restart.

Thanks for replying.
tried both,and nothing happend.
guess i just have to send it back.

PKB gestures only work when using the Blackberry Keyboard, so if you installed say, the Google keyboard instead, and set it as the active input method, PKB gestures stop working. You have to use the Blackberry Keyboard as the active input method.

I wish it could be someting that easy,but i only have the blackberry keyboard installed

OK Google Detection

Is anyone else having the issue of not being able to re-train the voice model and leave it so that it works while the screen is off?
Ever since the latest Essential update mine won't stay on when ticked. As soon as i leave the screen it reverts back to being off and then doesn't work. Was just wondering if anyone else was having the issue before i factory reset.
Thanks

Fixed it for now, by rebooting and then fixing the smart Lock.
Please merge this party with the other one.
Thanks
