Guest SkUk21 Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 Hey guys, I was wondering if there was any way of keeping the lights on the C500 whilst on charge, and then as soon as you took the charger off it went back to normal?
Guest Confused Stu Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 Um... Sorry SkUk... Great idea, but Orange/HTC haven't come up with that particular one, so it's not possible at the moment. Although you can change the backlight timing in the Settings it doesn't differentiate between charging and not, so you cannot set it to do one thing with one and then one for the other. It might be possible to write an application that runs all the time and checks for charging then turns the backlight on. Only problem, the application could well end up taking more battery power when off-charge than simply leaving the backlight on the whole time! :roll: Keep thinking of ideas and posting them. You never know when one'll find it's back back to a Windows employee in the right departement! :lol:
Guest nickwaring Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 Hi, take a look in the Compact .net development forum threads... there is one near the top about a backlight utility which does what you are looking for... You probably need to read the whole thread to understand how the app works within the constraints of the C500
