If its true, that really sucks the big suck :(

I've tried all kinds of registry hacks that deal with keyboard backlighting, and this really is the case.. it just doesn't have any affect. Several people have asked this question and several people have tried to resolve it but I have not found anything which has worked yet. So it's just the way it is. After awhile I got used to using the "Phone Keypad" for T9 input and only use the keyboard if it's a long message anymore, so it's not too big of a deal to me.

My question is why couldn't HTC set the keyboard to autolight up in darkness. The Mogul had a light detect on the keyboard, but the Touch Pro also has a light detect on the face. Not sure why they decided to not implement the same function on the newer phone.

yup the keyboard guys left it out cuz it wasn't thier domain, and the other guys didn't think about the keyboard backlight, (too busy counting diamonds.. ;) )

earlier in the game someone mentioned just pressing the ctrl button because its easy to find, and it doesnt do anything if you arent pressing it with a key combo.

lights right back up.
its worked wonders for me. haha.

here's an idea. not sure if its good. a small background task that pushes the "cntl" button every 9 secs while either in landscape mode or detected keyboard open.

might work?!

You all need to do a search for threads like this. The main thread that discusses this issues already covered everything in this one. Bottom line is it cannot be fixed at this time.
