Turn keyboard backlight automatically? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Is there any way to have the keyboard back light come on automatically every time I slide out the keyboard?
thanks

goto settings -> system -> backlight -> battery power
and uncheck "turn off backlight if device is not used..."

Doesn't this mean the screen backlight will stay on until the sleep timer?
i really like keyboard light to turn on when slid out -- but still don't want to kill battery w. screen not turning off. My current setting turns backlight off THEN screen.

in this case you should do the following
goto settings -> system -> power -> advanced
and check "turn off device if not used for..." under "on battery power:"

If you go to Settings/Personal/Buttons then on the backlight tab, untick "Enable keyboard backlight auto sensor" then the keyboard will lightup when you press a key, regardless of the ambient light.
Not quite what you asked but maybe as close as you can get... I think.

Start -- Settings -- System -- Power -- Backlight -- Uncheck "Auto adjust backlight"
On a custom rom so yours might be different, but the setting should be in there somewhere.

No button lights

I just noticed my buttons aren't lighting up anymore :/
Mine stay on whenever charging and at all brightness levels... the only way they'll go off is if I put the phone to sleep (click power button).
Anyone know the setting location? I have Cyanogen & ADW launcher. I've seen it before but it's been so long I forgot where they were and can't find them.

Menu > Settings > CM Settings > Display > Automatic Backlight > Edit other levels
Lower / Upper = readings from the light sensor
Screen = the screen brightness you want based on the lower/upper light sensor values
Buttons = whether or not you want the softkeys on. Unfortunately, they cannot be dimmed (hardware limitations, from what I've read), so 255=on and 0=off
In the default configuration, for example, if the sensor value is 0-199, the screen will be set to brightness 25 and the softkeys will be turned on. If the sensor value is >399, notice that the softkeys turn off (button value changes to 0). If you want the buttons on all the time, set all button values as 255. If you're like me, and you hate the softkey lights, set all button values to 0.
THANK YOU! Exactly what I was looking for and clearly explained!

Button lights always on

Hello, I'm currently using CyanogenMod 11 [BR4] and I'm unsure if it's an issue with the rom or my device as they used to work before this rom.
The bottom button light is always turned on when the screen is turned off. The brightness goes down, but they're still turned on at a dimmed level.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Not from my side at least,I'm also on BR4. Well the only way you may try is to change the rom, Try any nightly or any other rom. But in my opinion it has nothing to do with Capacitive sensors. Some sort of light panel issue(Hardware Issue) :fingers-crossed:, not rom itself.

Seems the issue was to do with overclocking. Reduced the CPU speed and seems to work perfect now.

[Q] how to deactivate wrist motion to turn back light on?

I am a blackjack dealer so my wrist is always moving and activating the back light. I only want to keep it in dimmed mode unless I tap on screen. Is there an option for it? I can't figure it out.
Disable Tile-To-Wake. The setting can be found in Android Wear app > Settings (gear icon) > SmartWatch 3 > Tilt to wake screen.
Or double press the side button for theater mode.

Go to Settings > Display > Colors & Saturation > and set it to "Standard". It will solve it.
Or if u still want to use "cool" color setting, Go to lock screen settings and turn on "Prevent pocket dials".
I had same issue with MiUi with Xposed installed ! If you RUN both....try uninstalling Xposed
