Soft keys won't light - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

I'm running AOKP right now, and no matter what I do I can't get the soft keys to light up (this was a problem when I was still using CM7 last week). I tried editing light levels in the settings, did a full wipe before flashing AOKP, then tried the auto brightness toggle I had seen somewhere, but nothing worked. Any other suggestions?

Hmm the auto brightness toggle is what fixes it for me

No luck with that here, haven't seen any other fixes though, I'm thinking that the lights just died on me. Oh well, as long as the buttons still work.

Turn on hard keys using ics

Hey guys I've been looking around but cant find anyway to turn back on the hard keys. (Home,menu,back,search) I guess its also referred to as capacitive buttons. I just flashed to mazwoz beta 5 (totally sweet)using mason full kernel. And noticed the lights don't turn on under the buttons. I was using synergy ( which rocks IMO) and I know he lights work. Is there a setting I'm unaware of or a zip I could flash to get them to work? Or maybe ics is designed this way? Idk. But any help is appreciated.
Thanks

You have to play around with the brightness settings to get them to turn back on. Just move it up or down or turn auto brightness on one of those will make then light up

CM9 & touchkey/softkey backlight

Alright, hopefully I'm just being a 'tard and not looking in the right place. I took my phone from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 last night, and I have allllllmost everything set up the way that I want it. The only thing that's missing it the backlight for the four softkeys (menu/home/back/search). I want them to stay lit whenever I have the screen on. I've searched, but all the threads that I turned up were people that couldn't get them to turn off!
Can anyone point me in the right direction, or is it something I just need to get used to?
Thanks,

Its a bug, sometimes they turn on sometimes they don't. I hardly pay attention to them anymore as I've gotten used to it

happens to me off and on. Pretty common actually, not a big issue to me since at this point we should have the layout memorized

This is a known issue. They won't work when the screen comes on initially.
If you leave the screen untouched for about 5 seconds, they will come on when you touch the screen. You can also get them to come on by adjusting brightness. They will work until the screen turns off.

Not quite what I meant... I'm referring to the fact that, once they /are/ lit, if you don't touch the screen for a few seconds, they turn off. I want them to be on as long as the screen is on. You can set this to happen in the OEM TouchWiz OS, but not with CM9.

Go to System > Advanced > Sensors, then check the box beside Enable Keys Backlight

Not a fix lol easier to just adjust brightness from status bar to get them on...
same thing with the screen brightness... it's not as bright as it is with stock rom when you dont have power saver enabled..

I think I misunderstood. I thought you wanted them to stay on when the screen is on. The directions I gave you do that on mine. What was it you want the keylights to do exactly?
Personally I think the screen brightness is actually too bright except in when out in bright daylight.

CM10 low battery notification light

In the cm10 beta 2, is the low battery notification led supposed to be on by default? If so, is there a way to disable it? It was under display settings in cm9 but I have been unable to find it in 10.

I too have been wondering the same thing
I have it in: Display > Battery LED on CM10
(btw, I have an Atrix. Maybe your CM10 release is too old?)
That's how it was in cm9 beta 1.

LED brightness

I'm stock rooted. I've noticed that my red charge light randomly gets dimmer until I wake the phone. I put it back to sleep and it's normal. Has anyone else seen this.

If your in a bright area the led will be brighter and vice versa, I believe it uses 1 of the sensors to detect how bright it is.

Even with auto-brightness off?

Yes it just changes the led not the screen brightness.

I guess I thought it was a problem with my phone, but I shined a flash light on and off at the light sensor and the charge light changed with it. Thanks for the input.

[Q] question about CM 10.2 LED intensity

Is there a way to turn down how bright the LED's are for notifications? I just updated from stock to CM 10.2 and the LED notification lights are a lot brighter, and a different color. It's so bright that when I'm charging my phone at night the light really bugs me. I liked the old blue light from teh stock set up much better.
I looked around and also searched but didn't see anything on this.
Thanks,
CF
What about using the Quiet Hours setting to disable the LED altogether during certain hours?

I have it set to turn off the ringer. If it does the LED's too I totally missed it. Will check that out.
"Disable Notification Light" is the bottom option.
