I've now got my lovely new SP5 and everything about it is just lovely as far as I'm concerned.

However, there is one issue which is really getting on my nerves. No matter what combination of settings I try, I just can't the backlight to switch off.

The problem was already present with the original ROM on the handset, and has continued even with the new ROM. I've tried installing i-Mate's powersaving utility from their website, but in fact, it only made things worse by deciding that the backlight should be switched after one second, which was of course extremely irritating.

I would simply like the backlight to switch off after ten seconds. My current settings are:

Home screen settings

Layout :: Windows Default

Colour scheme :: Default

Background image :: Default

Time out :: Never

Power management

Backlight time out on battery :: 10 seconds

Backlight time out on AC :: Never

Display time out :: Never

Light sensor enable :: Off

Where am I going wrong? Given my spectacular ineptitude with technical matters, and my comically clumsy fingers, I'd ideally prefer not to have to resort to editing the registry. However, any help that can be offered will be very gratefully received.

Try changing the display timeout to something other than never. I think that should get you sorted.
