i encountered a very strange behaviour with my Touch Dual:

manually set HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\BatteryTimeout to 20
=> manually suspend the device
=> press power button to wake up the device
=> HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\BatteryTimeout changed to 7 (!)

anybody have similar prob? there should be an app doing this behind but i couldn't find it out. :(
it really annoys me because, combined with IdleStart of S2U2, my device is locked upon 7 seconds of inactivity!

pls help!!

thanks to glennza in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1430924&postcount=404). it's found that the prob can be solved by setting LockLevel to 0. after all, seems location of this key has been changed to:

[HKCU\ControlPanel\BackLight\LockLevel]
LockLevel = 0

(i couldn't find the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Power] key on my Touch Dual)


[3 Jan] problem found: this reg key value reset to 1 upon every soft reset. as quick workaround i import a concerned .reg file upon every bootup (i.e. place a shortcut in Startup folder). could somebody advise a better solution?
