Keypad Low Light Sensor, Logo Flash | Motorola i885 guide

Customizing Your Phone

To save battery power, the internal display and external display backlights fade before going off and the external display shows only the time or phone status as the backlight fades.

Internal and External Display, Keypad, and Logo Backlight

A backlight lights the internal display, the external display, the keypad, and the logo when you make or receive a call, open or close the flip, or press keys or buttons.

To control how long the backlight stays on:

1From the main menu, select Settings > Display/Info > Backlight > Timer.

2Select the number of seconds you want the backlight to stay on.

To control how long the backlight stays on for Java applications:

1From the main menu, select Settings > Display/Info > Backlight > Java Timer.

2Select the number of seconds you want the backlight to stay on for Java applications.

Keypad Low Light Sensor

To set the keypad backlight to light up only in low light conditions:

1From the main menu, select Settings > Display/Info > Backlight > Sensor.

2Set this option to On.

Logo Flash

The logo backlight flashes rapidly when you receive a phone call. It flashes slowly when you receive messages and reminders, until the alert times out. If your phone is set to sound no alert tone when you receive messages and reminders, the logo does not flash.

To set the phone’s logo to flash:

1From the main menu, select Settings > Display/Info > Backlight > Logo Flash.

2Set this option to On.

WT Button Backlight

The WT button backlight lights up when you are starting to send a WT item or call alert. It flashes rapidly when you receive a Private call, Talkgroup call, Group Walkie-Talkie call, or an item sent in a Private call. It flashes slowly when you receive a call alert.
