Hi all,

Got my 9700 on Tmo. I bought a charging cradle so I can leave the phone by my bed to charge and do thw alarm clock mode, which is pretty cool. My only issue with it is when I turn off the light in the room the keyboard backlight comes on and stays on all night because the room is dark. Any idea how I can tweak this so the keyboard backlight stays off in alarm clock mode?

Otherwise, its the best Blackberry I've owned!!

Thanks.

Are you sure you are in bedside mode? Just putting the phone in the charging cradle does not put it into bedside mode. You need to open the clock application and choose options from the menu. From there, you set the phone to take certain actions (including bedside mode) when charging.

Otherwise, with the phone on, pull out the battery, let it sit for a few seconds, and then put the battery back in. Then try the charging again.

You're right--i wasn't in bedside mode. Didn't know there were options on the clock screen. Got it tweaked and is working great now. Even turned off the status led, which is really bright on this model.

Thanks!
