e63 keyboard light turns off

When I am in the middle of typing a txt or email the keyboard light turns off. Is there a setting to keep the light one until I send?

 

display > light time-out is 60 secs which is the max. Have I missed a setting?

Have you tried typing a text in the dark, does it still turn off? I'd assume it'd have to do with the ambient light sensor. If there's enough light in your environment it will turn off the keypad lights, or keep them on when there isn't enough light.

Re: e63 keyboard light turns off

the light on my e63 keyboard seems to only be affected by the light sensor. the only setting I know of is under Personalize - Display - Light Sensor but that should only effect the sensitivity I think.  I put my finger over the sensor and it stayed on until I removd my finger typing or not for 2 or 3 minutes approx

Power saving time out was 65 seconds; I have now set to the max which is 90 seconds. This will not be long enough if I am typing an email!

Put black sticker on the light sensor (next to ear piece). Set the Light Sensor to the level which is comfortable to your sight. I set it to lowest value.

Re: e63 keyboard light turns off

Hi kirrin4j. Was it doing this since you got the phone? If not...Have you tried to restore the factory settings of your phone?

Try, 'Menu> tools > settings > General >? Factory Settings' and use the security code 12345 (unless you've changed it).

You won't lose any of your data and the phone should restart with all the same settings you started out with (including any sensor settings that were the default).
Life is one big road with lots of signs.
