Default Need clock to stay on and not dim

Please Login to Remove!

I need my clock to stay on for at least 30 minutes a day, but after 30 seconds it seems to dim. I've entered into Bedside Mode, but that doesn't stop it from dimming. Can I fix this?

I use BBLight to keep my screen lit while charging. Its a free app. A search should turn up an OTA URL.

This might be it, but I don't need the clock for charging; I want it mostly for when I leave the BB on my nightstand and go to sleep at night. I want to be able to look up and see it on all night like an alarm clock. Can this app do that?

I downloaded it and I don't think it's what I need. I basically want the Clock to stay on all the time instead of dimming. Looks like another user shares my problem: Storm screen keeps dimming, no matter what - BlackBerry Support Community Forums

You do not need an app for what you want to do. The handheld has a feature called "Bedside Mode". You can enter bedside mode from Clock/Menu/Enter Bedside Mode or set it so that when plugged in to charge it will automatically enter this mode (Clock/Options/When Charging). In Clock options, you can determine if you want the LED to remain on, if you want to disable the radio, dim the screen and which sound profile you want to use.

I use mine as an alarm M-F and it works great. I charge nightly so I am set to enter bedside mode when charging. I have LED = Off, Disable radio = No, Dim Screen = Yes (still very visible but you can set it to no) and Sound Profile = Active Profile ( I place my handheld in "Phone Calls Only" before retiring each night).

Try it out. I believe this is just what you are looking for.
