I just received a Diamond as a replacement for my Touch and overall I like it much better.

I did like being able to adjust the backlight on the Touch by simply pressing the icon. Does this feature exist on the Diamond?

Thanks.

I don't think that was a default feature of the Touch. Maybe you had a 3rd party program installed that did this? The Diamond is nice because it automatically adjusts the backlight as conditions brighten or darken.

It was a default feature of the Touch.

I can't stand how the screen on the Diamond constantly gets darker to save the battery.

I've used many phones as flashlights before and the autodim on the Diamond is a pain in the A$%...

there are reg tweaks to change the backlight settings..

You mentioned there was an icon to do this? Where is it on the Touch? I owned the Sprint version & never saw such an icon, so maybe it's a Verizon thing.

Regarding the auto adjust backlight function on the Diamond, there's a checkbox to turn this feature on/off in Settings>Power>Backlight.

Also, you might be interested in Lumos, an alternative app being developed for controlling the backlight.

Oh that's right.. I had completely forgotten about that!

There's probably a way to program one of the programs tab on the Diamond to do the same thing?
