[Solved]Backlight Slider Disappeared.

[JohnnyK58]

Can anyone help me with this problem... The Backlight Adjustment slider for on external power, in settings, has disappeared and I don;t know why. It was there last night, and this morning I put the HD2 in the docking cradle and the screen went darker, so I looked in the settings and noticed the slider had disappeared, this has happened once before, but it came back after installing a new ROM.
I have just installed a new ROM "Dutty's Leo Multi-Lang V2" yesterday afternoon and the slider was there after flashing the ROM and last night, Any ideas please...

U should try pressing the "Hangup" button until you can select "Lock Phone" (or similar, as i have dutch version). Now this unlock slider will re-appear.

I was not on about the unlock slider, I was talking about the adjustment slider in settings for the backlight, see image...

Did you scroll to the bottom of that page? It isn't visible on the initial screen.

In the registry, HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\
Set ACBrightNess and BrightNess to 5.

Some program most likely messed with it and brought it out of the 1-10 valid range.

Hi kilrah. Thanks for the regedit, that has fixed it, thanks for your help.
I don't know what it was that messed it up, could docking it into my cradle cause it, I have a new cradle that has audio out which has a phono plug that goes into the headphone scoket when you dock it into the cradle and I have a mini speaker attached to the cradle? Thanks again
