Backlight wont turn on. Help! - Treo Forum

deevel79 · 09-25-2008, 05:52 PM

It happened from 1 second to the next. I made a phone call, put the phone back in its pouch, and when i went to use it again, my backlight wouldnt turn on. I can see the screen, but it doesnt light up. What can it be?

By turning the brightness up! LOL. Must've accidently turned it all the way down when messing with the phone.

Ah Ha I have that problem occasionally with the phone volume on my 750.

Sounds like something I would do. I came out from the doctor's office the other day, actually my 48th birthday, and couldn't find the keys. I had left them in the igition and to top that off I had left the car running. (The mind is a terrible thing to lose

No, not this time. Though I have done that before, but it was many years ago.
