Understanding the keyboard backlight
Your smartphone includes a keyboard
backlight for low light conditions. The
keyboard backlight is activated
automatically when the screen turns on.
The backlight turns off automatically when
the screen turns off or when you are on a
call or playing music in the background for
longer than the time specified in Backlight
Settings. You can set different time
intervals depending on whether the
smartphone is operating on battery power
or is connected to an external power
source. The backlight also turns off when
an application’s power-saving features turn
it off.

By default, the first letter of each sentence
or field is capitalized and the remaining text
you enter is lowercase. To enter other
uppercase letters, do one of the following:
• Press Shift , and then enter a letter.

while entering a letter.
• Press Shift twice to turn on Caps
Lock, and then enter a series of letters.

again.
TIP

interval. Press Start and select Settings.

Backlight. Set the time interval on the
Battery Power tab and on the External
Power tab.
