Question [Q] brightness of LED for menu/home/return/search

I have tried searching for an answer to this question for a while, but haven't been able to find anything for GS2X.

Is there a way to dim these lights? I don't want to turn them off, but I find them a pain on the eyes when watching something in the dark. Also, is there a way to lock them from use when playing games?? My 5 year old daughter gets really pissed when she's trying play fruit ninja and hits the home or return buttons .. lol.

Thanks in advance!!

Runs awesome for me. And as far as dimming goes, that would be something that has
to be baked into the kernel. Can be done though as far as I know.

all apps run smoothly on my phone. running bullet kernal w/ juggernaut and use setcpu to performance whenever i'm gaming. burns through the battery, but hell, what game doesn't on a mobile phone

i do find at times my phone starts to run a little choppy, even with everything jacked up it scores pretty low on quadrant. if that's the case, i just reboot and it's back to running sexy fun time.

thanks for the response. so would this be something i could request in the juggernaut thread? or do they only do the rom and not the kernel? maybe i should just go there and ask them rofl.

You stated that you're using bullet kernel... Why not request in that thread?

so, you guys have rooted and tuned your device?

I think mine can not run some games because I am using original stock rom, right?
