View Full Version : Power/Backlight settings not "sticking"?

I have an 02 XDA Exec, and have just finished installing all my apps and configuring them (took a long time!). Has anyone had any problems with the power (I'm checking to NOT power off while on battery) and the backlight settings not sticking? I'm finding that while the device is on, at some point, the settings are reverting back. Also on soft resets? Anyone heard of this?

For those curious, I'm leaving the power on because, for some reason, if I power off then power on, the unit freezes. I don't know if that's due to a bug in 02's WM5 image, or an app I'm running. So that I don't have to rebuild AGAIN, I'm electing to keep the power on so it doesn't freeze.

Any suggestions on both issues? Any seen both of these problems?

Thanks!
Marc

It might be a conflict with a program you installed. Are you using Phone Alarm? Because if you do, there is also an option there regarding Power OFF.

Christian,
Thou hast saved my sanity! That was it, exactly. Changed my backlight and power settings within phonealarm and, so far, I'm good. Thanks VERY much! (I was ready to ship this puppy back!)

Any idea on what app could be causing the freeze? (I have two batteries so it's not a huge issue if I leave it on all day).

Thanks again!
