Re: Make the bottom hardware key lights stay on longer?
 

Not a bad idea. The other night I kept pressing the window button when I was trying to open up the dial pad. I think it should atleast light up when you wake up the phone. You have to physically hit a button to make them light up.

There is some issue though - is it that the lights now stay on all the time? - if anyone tries it - please post here

No takers? Ha ha. Alright, I'll try it...

Ok, I've installed it. First impressions: it works. And if you turn the device off as per usual, the lights go off with the power button. However...

One caveat (as per the disclaimer on XDA): if the device goes to sleep itself (ie. after 1 min of activity or whatever you've set that to) the lights DO stay on. This is a pain. For instance, if you get a text message while the device is in your pocket and you don't notice it, those lights will stay on till you do. I would assume this would have an adverse effect on your battery life.

So it's not ready yet. Let's hope NetRipper keeps working at it. I'll post this over at XDA too so he knows we're interested.
