I wonder if there is a way or a tool to gain backlight, I bought qtek2060 yesterday and it seems like the brightness was set to half, but it is set to max, can I do something whith it?
Or is it possible to set more backlight in registry? I think my hima can shine more, but how to do that pls )

hi,
i have a problem. i own a hermes (o2's trion) and a herald (htc p4350).
on the hermes you can choose from 7 points of backlight brightness.
but on the herald you only have 4.
the thing is that the lowest level is way too dark (you can barely see something) and the second lowest way too bright/light for me (eye cancer: help).
is there a way (registry?) to make all the 4 backlight levels darker or to find a way to get between the lowest and second lowest level of the backlight?
it's really so bright now, and that also needs much more battery.
thanks very much in advance.
i think backlighting levels are on a deeper level in the machine (hardware or driver) then a registry entry can fix.
SPBPocket Plus for Herald could maybe help (read the features). But I didn't try it.

I would like to recall my previous post. There is no such thing like a special version of SPB Pocket Plus for Herald. It's just fricking dynamic webpage changing according to your search
Well, we can still keep hoping at least.
hi guys,
the auto backlight feature of the HD is quite nice, but one thing really annoying me:
if you are in a dark room the backlight is still to bright. i mean, theres no light around but it is still on propably 50% brightness.
is there a way to fix/change it somehome? maybe some registry settings with min and max value for brightness used by auto backlight?
or to calibrate my sensor? saying normal room light = 50%, outside = 100%, room in the evening with only tv on = 0%?
maybe somebody else solved it already, board search didn't gave me usefull topics.
thanks in advance,
guro
Hi!
I wonder if there is a way to lower the backlight levels on auto adjust (or increase for those who think its still not bright enough). Point is I think having the backlight on generally lower levels will naturally increase battery life. I know I can change the the brightness to a fixed level that suits me - but that would just be right for the current situation. I still want it to adjust to different lighting situations. Ideas?
It would be nice if it was possible to change how dim the backlight gets on total darkness and how bright it gets on your average sunny day.
I've been messing around with the reg to see if I could find max and min values but I can only change manual settings, not auto mode using the light sensor.
One note though: The sensor itself uses battery to measure ambient light. That being said, if you spend most of the day under a constant light source (say an office) manually dimming the device should consume less energy since the sensor is not doing much good for you anyway.
I guess it's not your case. I had this app on my Cruise to change backlight intensity. never used until now. it works on leo (running 1.48 but that should not matter) and changes backlight in 25% increments. You can copy a shortcut to the startmenu and add a quick link to your home tab or map it to a hard or soft button somehow.
I wold really like to know how to change max and min levels on auto backlight.
Try Lumos - it's a backlight replacement that allows you to customise how you want your auto backlight to work, ie. what the minimum/maximum brightness is, how fast the backlight changes, etc.

Seems to work fine. Still some tunning to do. Thanks!
I'm using Lumos now and it works great! Simple to set up and easy to customize. Thanks for the hint!
lumos is great but I found it was draining the battery quite fast on the leo.
Admittedly I was using it with the wm6.5 Check for active programme only setting. I never tested it to see if it worked without checking that box.
As far as I can tell by now the batterylife appears to be rather better than before. I haven't put in any application exceptions and didn't check the one checkbox in the settings tab. I also use a custom curve where the backlight stays at 30% until the sensor hits about 400 (30% is plenty in my opinion and still brighter than my friend's iphone in normal light condition inside).
you should try AutoLight http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548402
it works fine on Leo
At night the backlight too bright when set to Automatic - it won't go below 30% even when it is totally dark. It seems like this threshold can't be changed. As a workaround, does anyone know if there is a way to make a shortcut to the Backlight settings screen that can be used in Quicklinks, so at least it can be quickly set manually.
try lumos. it works on the hd2
The "low" brightness is way too bright for me. Microsoft is nice enough to introduced 30 levels of volume but offering just 3 levels of brightness is pretty dumb.
Anyways I was looking through registry hack and I found the MinBrightness and MaxBrightness setting. Originally I set it to "manual" and "low" in the brightness setting. Then I checked the registry and the Min and Max is 0 and 19 respectively.
I changed the Max to 0, and it APPEARED to be dimmer than before. I went back to the Setting -> Brightness and now my brightness level is shown as "Medium", Auto adjust set to off. Both of them are grey out so that I cannot change it, I supposed the setting screen read an unsupported combination and freaked out. I wonder if anyone else tried this, or this is just my placebo effect?
I thought I was the only one having this problem.
Hopefully there will a solution regarding this issue.
I wonder if I can use privacy screen to lower the brightness, or even those tinted window screen from home depot.
So where to tweak this in registry?
