Backlight? Where art thou?

---

I've flashed and reflashed the desire rom by modaco and the remix v.1 and v.2 and neither of those times was I able to get the backlight on the soft keys to work. I looked throughout this thread and just met more questions than answers. Anyone have any advice? It'll be much appreciated.

I have not yet found any desire rom with proper backlit buttons.

mine are working fine and i've been using Desire ROMs Alpha 7-11. the backlight dims (go off) in bright conditions and comes on in low light conditions. could this issue be related to not wiping data and/or the dalvik caches? i ask because with each Alpha flash, i've wiped both data and dalvik caches...

Make no difference with or without wipe for me. The backlit lights up, but not properly in the dark.

i've wiped dalv and data and still no backlight for the 4 soft keys.

i have never had any issues with the softkey backlights.

Some problem here

did you guys with the backlight issue go back to a stock ROM to see if that corrected the problem?
