    No help, just commiseration. I've also disabled the auto dim feature to no avail. It makes me crazy trying to use the calculator when I can barely see the numbers. It will then just brighten up randomly. Sigh. Stuff like that gives the phone a little personality, don'tcha know.

    That automatic dim feature on the storm is what controls the brightness of the screen in different types of lighting allow you to still see the screen under almost any condition. There is no way to fully turn off the dimming of the backlight but you can set the backlight timeout longer which will stop it from dimming as quickly. The only negative to this is that it might effect your battery life slightly from being on for so long.

    Go to Options> Screen/Keyboard and it should be the 6th option on the screen.
