frontlight switched off after standby

franklekens · 06-02-2020, 06:59 AM

If I set the frontlight to a particular value (other than 0), whenever the device goes into standby/sleep and I wake it up again, the frontlight is off. I have to go to the frontlight menu again. To my surprise, the value for it is not set to 0, it's where I left it. The light just doesn't switch on untill I fiddle a bit with the settings again.

Is that a common bug? Or is it a setting somewhere that I can change?

There is a checkbox "Activate the Frontlight when the device wakes up" in the settings under 'power'.

Ah, I see. Silly me. Thanks.
