Display and keyboard backlight troubleshooting
Context
The device has one LED driver that provides current for both display and keyboard backlights.
Keyboard backlights are turned ON only in dark conditions. This is controlled by the Ambient Light Sensor
(ALS). Also the brightness of the display is adjusted by the ambient light sensor.
You can enable/disable ALS with the help of Phoenix service software.
Display brightness can be adjusted manually, if ALS is disabled. If the ambient light sensor is enabled, it
adjusts the display brightness automatically.

• If a phototransistor is broken, replace it with a typical phototransistor.
• If the phototransistor is changed, the calibration value in the phone memory has to be changed to the
default value ‘1’.
