simple display on/off question

Hi!
- Does the Universal turn on automatically when the display flip is opened or does the user have to press the Power button first?
- What exactly does the Backlight button do?
I need to know this because I'm investigating a possible wiring damage ...
Thanks!

Depends...
The Universal knows two different states. When you close the display while the device is on, and then open the diplay again the screen will come on.
If however you first press the power button to send the device into standby, and then close and open the display, the screen will not come on, the device will remain in standby.
The backlight button is useless, use the hack to re-assign it to a function of your choice.
Thanks!
That helped a lot!! 8)

screen doesn't turn on by screen tap?

Hi All,
My Wizard is set to turn the screen off after a minute of inactivity.
To get it back on, I have to press the power button.
I've checked in backlight and power settings and have it set to allow a screen tap to turn the backlight on, but it's not working - well, if the backlight's off but the screen's on it works ok, but I want a tap to turn the screen and the backlight on together. At the moment I have to press the power button, which upsets Pocket Player MP3 playback...or I can press a hardware button, but again, this tends to interrupt playback of music as all the buttons are mapped to something.
Seems a simple request, am I missing anything? This is under the Mr Clean ROM, if it makes a difference.

Once the screen goes off, the phone is "sleeping". The only way I know of to turn it on at this point is to tap the power button. To do what you want would be turn turn off the screen going into sleep mode, but that will come at the expense of your battery life. Start>Settings>Power>Advanced then uncheck the Turn off device under On Battery Power.
device lock(s)
A halfway solution, you could turn the screen off using the device lock app, which includes screen off. Then when you press the power button it only effects the screen and not anything which is running. The second one is very good for listening to music with, assuming you volume control button isn't broken like mine

Turning the damn thing off!

Hi there,
This is probably a daft question, but how do I completely turn off the device? At the moment if I press the silver power button; it just turns off the backlight the way it does if you close the lid. It's not THAT much of a problem, just a huge drain on battery power.
Any ideas would be great,
Ta
You can't turn the device off completely like a regular phone. If you press the silver button once quick it will put the device into low power standby mode. The backlight AND screen should turn off. If you hold the silver button for longer only the backlight will go off which is different.
There are also a number of power saving options in the settings which will determine how long the backlight is turned off and how long the device will go into standby automatically.

OFF/ON The Screen with STYLUS (REQ)

Hello guys.. im searching for some litle app that is able to map the Stylus
for example: When the Stylus is IN the Screen to be OFF backlight in a sleep mode.
When the Stylus is Out the Screen to be ON.. wake up automaticly.
I found this that is avalible in Mobile Magic Button Maper etc.. but there have so many extras with i will not use them and i hear that this app drain the batery fast.
So i need and i think many of you need just one very light simple app for the Stylus... this will not drain out Battery and also we will not need anymore to press the Power Button when we want our phone to go on Sleep and Wake Up
For example if you Map some key for the screen OFF thats work without problem but when the screen is OFF in HTC Touch HD you can`t turn it on with any from the KEYS because they just don`t work in sleep mode.. so you can turn it ON only by presing the Power Buton witch is not good because from so many use of that Litle Button often the peoples have problem with this button and he often Crash.
If someone is able to do this Stylus APP will be Awsome.
i want this as well since my power button is broken....
will wait...thanks
It's part of multi functions in Gyrator.

Hello dude i gound Desigion of the Problem.
Here is full with APPS like this but i was searching for something very Light that don`t dry battery and work fast... i know that in Gyrator and MobileMagic you can do this option but they have alot more stufs to costumize and i need only the Stylus so what you can do is very simple.
Install "Turn Off The Light" this is a CAB and you can install it directly on device memory after you install it just go to Settings, Personal and Buttons
So you can asign a Key i asign my my 1st Hardware Button when i press and long hold to TURN OF THE LIGHT
and thats it...
Also my Stylus when is Out by default my phone Wake UP..
So i don`t need any more applications and etc when i want my phone to sleep just long pressing the hardwere call buton when i want to wake up just pul out the Stylus and there is no need to use the Power Button Anymore.
thanks for the response...anyway by removing the stylus...it seems that it eats up 1-2% of the battery usage...
any alternative solution to turn on from off...
thanks in advance
S2U2 can wake up / unlock the screen when pulling it out and lock it when you put it in.

i just noticed that when i press the power button to sleep the phone and lock it while the camera is on (video) the keys turn off for a sec then turn back on and stay on. dont know if its a battery drain but worth informing i guess.
