AutoBacklight for HP iPaq 415x PPC - HP iPaq 415x is a great Pocket PC, but its backlight control system doesn''t support backlight brightness change automatically when connected to (or disconnected from) AC power (charging). Most of the other HP iPaq PPCs have this feature though.
This AutoBacklight utility solves the problem. It will set the backlight brightness to the highest when a 415x is connected to the charger (and charging). The backlight brightness will turn to normal (the default setting) automatically when charger is disconnected.
AutoBacklight is a very small program which takes less than 8kb memory. It works for HP iPaq 415x PPC only. There is no UI or whatsoever. Just run AutoBacklight once to enable it. Run again to disable it (if you choose to).
Installation and user guide:
1. Download the AutoBacklight zip file, copy the cab file to your PPC then install (with any file explorer)
Note: two shortcuts will be created automatically. One is under WindowsStart MenuPrograms, the other is under WindowsStartUp (to enable AutoBacklight after a reset).
2. Run AutoBacklight (by clicking on any of the above shortcuts). Now if your PPC is charging, the screen backlight will turn to full brightness (in a couple of seconds).
3. To disable auto backlight, just run AutoBacklight again and confirm the action (click on the "Yes" button). The backlight brighness will be turned to normal when AutoBacklight is disabled.
4. Uninstall: you''ll have to disable AutoBacklight before you can uninstall it.
AutoBacklight is FREE.
