Hi,
I have a TyTN with Black Dymond 3.5 rom. But the backlight is very low. Even when I put the backlight on maximum. When I'm on route and someone calls me or I want to check my email I cannot see anything. This problem also appeared on the original rom.
Before the TyTN I had the Wizard (Q-Tek 9100). And the view on this screen, in the sun/outside, was perfect.
Does anyone has the same problem and what can I do about the onscreen brightness?
Kind regards,
Cesco NL
Have you tried the WM VI Black Vijay555 Utils this I think contained the means to make you screen brighter, cab attatched.

I gave my 8525 to a friend, and its acting really strange. On both WM5 Cingular rom and WM6 HTC cooked one, screen goes white, and when you press on/off it goes again to normal. Is something wrong with the screen, or some applications are bugging it? He uses just a few, 2-3 games, HandySwitcher and pTravelAlarm
hi...
when i use my cruise for a long period of time and with the batery meter i see the temperature goes about 30C the screen distorts and goes black(the backlight on) and nor with a soft reset the screen comes back. So when i put the cruise in the front of an conditioner air for some minutes the screen come back to normal.
sometimes the temperature goes to 30~38 and the cruise is normal and i can use normally. I'm using the bepes rom .58 and with the oficial rom WWE the problem is the same.
the phone work normally but i cannot see anything, i can receive call and parently the phone is working.
possibly i received an defective unit??
anyone can help me??
And sorry for my bad english...
Hi,
I just have tried Tomtom 7 on my 614C and notice that the backlight goes off when launching the software.
Any hack to solve this problem ?
Thanks
Looks like there is also such a problem on Igo.
i use Igo8 and dont notice this problem, do the settings in igo8 stay at max brightness?
I use TT6 , it is fine
Now, I have another problem.
I noticed that after sometimes (during navigation), my gps has problems locking on new satellites. It can see the satellites (they appear in grey) but never turn blue (in Tomtom). After a soft reset, I can pick up all satellites. Meaning that the ones in grey turn blue afterwards....
I changed the following registry entry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight]
"AutoDeviceLockEnable"=dword:00000001
Now when I press the the power button of the blackstone the wm 6.5 slider will appear. So far it works fine. But when the phone is not used for a while the backlight is getting darker. When I unlock the blackstone with the slider, the backlight is not getting brighter, it remains darker (but still not turned off).
Does anybody know this behaviour? Any solutions?
Thanks
Andy
This is a known problem..Try to use auto csdevctrl for auto wm 6.5 locking..
wm6.5 lock is nice and functionally but it is slow and buggy. Don't know if it's final version will improve but I suggest you to use third-party solutions.

Ever tried EnergyROM HD 'Phoenix' (21731)
faster than any other 6.1 ROM I have tried.
Anyways - why do we need another program to do what WM6.5 should do on ist own?

Because WM6.5 isn't officially released on the Blackstone
the reason is...I am cooking my own 6.5 rom and I just won't get it working.

no,it's not.
sorry it don't work after unlock but it work when touch the screen ! And on previous versions the wake up on touch don't worked
When I am using the following settings, the lock is not activated anymore when the backlight is dims...but when I tab on the screen, the backlight does not turn on anymore. So with those settings I went one step ahead, but I still not reached my goal. Has someone an idea? How can I force the backlight to turn on again?

Hi mates,
If you want to use the AutoLock of WM6.5 without backlight issue, you need to do as follow:
1. Change Auto Backlight to Manual
2. Disable "Turn Off Backlight" in Power Setting
Now, the AutoLock will work only when you do poweroff.
Cheers,
thanks...but I know... I need the registry settings...cause I want to cook it into my rom.
backlight issues here too
I am having the exact same problem. I have the 6.5 5nergy ROM. I have to manually go to backlight and touch the screen. Even though the bar on the backlight program is up to the top, it's still dim.
This has made me avoid using my Fuze and stick with my N85 - which has a much better camera anyway. But that full QWERTY keyboard... I miss it so!
Does anybody want the fix for this, or is this old news?

It is a known problems, have problem across three devise HD2, HD & SX1.
My 2 cent obser, slock mess up, device lock work good for me across three device, so far as I know only energy rom cook in and no issue. hope it help.
Cheers
The issue from what I have been able to determine, is that once your device Auto Locks, the BackLightOnTap stops working. Once it happens, it is not possible to get the backlight back on until you turn the screen off and back on again (if Auto adjust backlight is turned off this may not even work). One way to get around it is to never dim the backlight.
Anyway, I extracted the BackLight.dll from the leaked WM 6.5 ROM for the Diamond (Pine) and it corrects the issue on my Raphael. HTC seems to have fixed the issue, but there is one caveat.
With the new driver, the screen dims when ever the device is locked. The backlight will turn back on once it is unlocked. What this means is that if you are outdoors and your device is locked, it will be difficult to see the slider in order to unlock it.
This is the only issue I have encountered so far.
Update: Doh, what an easy fix. The value that controls the backlight level while the screen is locked is here...
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\LockLevel]
"LockLevel"=dword:0
By default, this is set to 0. Values 0 through 10 are valid (0 = lowest, 10 = highest).
Update 2: Bah! One of the drivers sets the LockLevel back to 0 on boot, which is a good thing because if you set the LockLevel to anything but 0 and use AutoLock, BackLight.dll crashes (probably why HTC forces it back to 0 on boot).
Also, a note for Raphael users, since this dll is from a Diamond, you will loose the keyboard backlight.

so ,does it working on HD?
I can't say as I have a Raphael, but it should.
Also, I have found that if you lock the screen using a password [\Control Panel\Lock] there is no problem with the backlight. The crappy part being you have to enter a password from then on, but it's one way.
Any solution yet?

You can try the CAB I posted. The only quirk is that the screen DIMs when the device is locked (which seems to be the same behaviour as the Omnia). The backlight turns back one once unlocked. This appears to be HTCs answer to the problem.
