AutoLight - HTC Topaz (Diamond 2) auto adjust backlight function is a good idea with a not very good implementation. It must be said to HTC excuse that the light sensor is very noisy, especially at low light conditions.
Some alternatives do exist but are not very good or are Compact Framework application (not a very good idea for background application).
AutoLight is supposed to be a better implementation for the auto adjust backlight function.
Requirements and compatibility
AutoLight was developed for HTC Topaz (Diamond 2) with WM6.1 and it critically depends on HTCSensorSDK.dll, HTCUtil.dll and on a 10 levels backlight starting from value 1.
It has been reported to work with WM6.5 and on Rhodium (Touch Pro 2) and it might work on some other HTC phones.
AutoLight is a native application with a very low memory usage. On the other hand the Configurator requires Compact Framework 2 but it should be closed after the use.
The Configurator is designed for WVGA screens.
