Screen Brightness

Unable to adjust the screen's brightness level. It is always bright and runs down battery. Unchecking auto brightness and manually sliding brightness slide bar has no effect. Non rooted, running froyo. Did a reset with no help. Anything else to try before sprint repair shop or insurance claim? Thanks.

I've heard it being a bug on gingerbread, but never to hear it as an issue on froyo...
Have done any updates at all? Like updating radio, prl etc?

I had same issue. Try this... Brightness Level by curvefish on the market. Worked fine and fixed it all for me!

All updates are done and tried the curvefish brightness app with no help. Thanks for the replies. If anyone else has an idea please let me know, otherwise will just live with til upgrade time.

Put window tint on it! That will lower that brightness right down!
