I have the original HTC touch which all of a sudden can't go to sleep. The backlight turns off, but the phone itself does not go to sleep. Can anyone shine a light on this?
Start -> Settings -> |System| -> Power -> |Advanced| -> Turn off device if not used for... (check it)

hi, how can i delay the time before the screen dims?
start --> settings --> system --> power --> advanced
advanced only changws the turn off delay right? i dont mean turn off.. i mean when the x1 dims the screen after a few seconds..
thats the "turn off backlight if device is not used for" option i think
"turn off device if not used" for will turn off the screen
i found many registry values pertaining to screen brightness, thresholds, delays, etc. go look around in the registry.
If the screen is dimming within seconds you have auto adjust on
Settings -> System -> Battery -> Backlight -> Untick "Auto adjust backlight"
I can only find a setting for turning off the device which I don't want to do because sometimes I sync files and I don't want the phone to turn off in the middle. Surely there is a way to turn off the screen though? It bugs me that it is always on when the phone is charging.
Thanks!
Go to Menu > Settings > Power >
Then click the advanced tab along the bottom
and if you only want the backlight to turn off and keep the device powered while charging
On external power:
enable turn off backlight (and choose after how many minutes)
disable turn off device if not used
Isnt turning the device off turning the screen off? As in throwing the device into standby?
When my X1 is in standby (after pushing the power button), I can still access it from my computer...
Hi
I have search all forums but not finding any answear.
I have S2U2 installed.
And all worked fine until today when my backlight didn't turn off (set backrounflight to 30 sec), neither did the phone turn off (set turn off to 1 min).
I have set the parameters in settings->power
Also in S2U2.
But the backlight just dimmer, not turn off, and the phone do not either turn off.
Can anybody help me??
Please!
taht usually happens when your connected via active sync, it will just dimmer, but u can change, goto settings > system > power > backlight and tick it off if you dont it to dimmer. hope that helps
My touch HD has just started an annoying habit - when it is on external power, the screen dims to about half-brightness in about 5 seconds. This is extremely annoying in the car cradle as it is very hard to read.
I cant find anywhere in settings or Advanced Config to change this.
Is there somewhere i can change this? a reg key?
cheers
settings > system > Power > backlight > uncheck auto adjust andf settings for external power should show up.
thx bigf00t - i tried that before, but it only changes the actual brightness of the screen while it is on power and in use. After I adjust that it then dims again after 5 seconds no matter what the setting.
You may try settings -> systems -> Power -> Advance, you should able to find what you need there.
ok - that was definitely it.
"Turn off backlight if device not used for" was set to 1 minute. I changed it to 2mins then back to 1 minute and it actually stayed bright for 1 minute instead of 5 seconds!
Nice to know that "turn off backlight" actually means "dim backlight"
Topic says it all.
Can the screen be disabled while the phone is playing when connected via TV-OUT. I tried the lights option and it locks the phone.
install AlenSoft QuickMenu and use the QuickMenu > Screen > Close
and it should blank the screen...
I found out last night that you can BUT you need to disable Lock Screen under Settings -> Display and Light.
Then, under General Settings -> TV Out, set Turn off backlight to whatever time you want.
