[Strange] 6600 Key backlight

4 replies · 2,345 views · Started 11 April 2004

I've just got my 6600 last week, and it is a pleasant change from my good 'ol P800 (which I still love!). I have a slight little problem with it (and I did a fast search, but nothing really came up...), namely that the screen backlight is working fine, but the key backlighting isn't. It just doen't work. Al all. I know it worked before, because I remember being pleasantly surprised by the brightness of it.

Am I missing an easy-to-find feature here (and I'm just to stupid to find it), or is my 6600 broken already?

I believe the backlight is standard....

You might need to have it sent back to the retailer (if still warrantied) and have them fixed or replace with a new one.

Hope this helps buddy...

As bizarre as i thought this post sounded at first,it could (slim chance tho) be an install error,as the key area backlight is on a different circuit to the screen(and as such lights slighty later than the screen).

Try uninstalling,or back up (You did back up already didnt you! lol)

IMO
1/10 This is the problem.

9/10 the phone is faulty.
