Expansion Module screen too dark?

Hi,
Has anyone used expansion module? I have tried this product recently, everything works fine except the screen. I think the screen is too dark to see the speed dial on it. I have tried both 7914 and 7915, but got same result. How can tune it more easy to see? Thank you!

You can use the Contrast setting in the phone's settings button. The 7914 and 7915 are monochrome without backlighting so be sure you are not expecting something it does not provide.

Screen too dark to see - it lights up when I plug it in a charger

my screen is too dark to see - can see SOMETHING in background - but too dim. I can plug into a charger and it gets normal brightness. Sometimes it starts flashing crazily! I am frustrated. This phone is my third or fourth phone (lost track) and all have been manufacturing problems. HELP!

The screen needs to be replaced

Ipod 4th gen. screen too dark, adjusting brightness does not help

lost ipod for a few weeks. When found screen is too dark. If you hold it in the light just right you can see everything and it works, you just cant see it.

That actually happened to my friend. But he literally took the screen off and then did something in the inside but I'm not sure what he did. But yeah it should be something on the inside of the screen.

Screen too dark to read after reboot. How to fix this.

AFter reboot, screen so dark I can barely see it. How may I fix this!

Hi Jbr8d,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. Are you able to adjust the screen brightness, as outlined in the following article?
OS X Mavericks: Adjust your display’s brightness
If you are unable to adjust the brightness, or the brightness setting isn't retained or doesn't respond to ambient light (if you have a MacBook Pro with an ALS), you may want to try resetting the System Management Controller, as noted below:

T400 vista login screen too dark

On my t400 with Vista Business the login screen is so dark that it is hard to see anything. It can be made brighter by using the brightness control keys, but this is a nuisance if you have to do this first before you can logon. Is there any way to set this logon screen to a higher default brightness??

It's a power saving feature.
Check the Power Manager options under the Globat Settings tab and uncheck the option to dim the screen during startup/log-in.

The screen saver too dark

ok i had my e65 a fews days now and i have
nearly figured out everything as in all
the functions with the exception of these,
which i need help with.
1, when the sreensaver comes on i notice
that its too dark and i mean, if i wanted
to quickly look at the time and/or date
i have to focus properly to see it, i cant
quickly glance on it as other phones
is there some sort of control to adjust the
clock on the screensaver to turn the brightness
or contrast up a bit that i may have
overlooked ?
2, whats the real purpose of this light sensor
on the top right hand corner ?
i have covered it a few times in day light and
low to no light at all but nothing happens.
thanks in advance

"Did you work out how to do it, I've still not sorted it either?"
nope i have not figured them out yet... the screen saver is too dark and that light sensor must be some sort of joke.
MINI RANT MODE ON
the light sensor really annoys me to look at knowing it serves no purpose at all and after using a few other screen savers its too bloodly dark. it would of been better if nokia had put nothing there at all at least this way i could understand that there is nothing to look at.
as for the slow capture actions of the camera..... well i will leave that for another time
MINI RANT MODE OFF
apart from that though the nokia e65 is the best ever phone i have used to date. connecting via VPN or SSH to my home server is a breeze, using SIP with www.sipgate.co.uk is like talking on a house phone (very clear) the internet is fast even with the stock browser.
too many good points to mention
sorry KD44 i think i slightly diverted from the main question
if you figure them out then please let me know.. its obvious that one other nokia knows the answer.
Thanks
Nokeya

Prints are too dark even though screen image looks fine

I have an iMac and an HP Photosmart D7360 printer. Lately, every photo I print is too dark. With older versions of iPhoto I was able to adjust the print settings (saturation, brightness, etc) from the print window and save those as a preset so my prints would match what I'm seeing on the monitor. Those settings seem to have disappeared in iPhoto '09 and I can't find a way to do that anymore. I don't understand Color Matching and some of the other settings I see, but I would like to learn how to get my photos to print the same as they look after I adjust them in iPhoto. It's mainly the darkness that's way off.
Thanks.

I also ran Disk Utility to repair permissions. The first time through there were maybe 100 repairs made to the AirPort Utility.app. I don't even use AirPort, so I don't understand that.
I've re-run it two more times and both times kept getting this message:

Also, all three times I've repaired permissions it's taken over 5 minutes or more to complete. I've never had it take that long.

Hi- I am just learning to use my new iphone 4, already did software update. When i am on a call, the screen goes dark within a few seconds so that i cant easily get back to the keyboard, the screen that allows me to go on speakerphone etc. Is this normal? I adjusted the auto-lock in settings but i couldnt find any adjustment for the screen going to sleep while on the phone. Also, is there any way to adjust the number of rings before the call goes to voicemail? Thanks.

Change background color ? - Too dark !

Is it possible to change the colors of the interface in LR 1.3 ?
I think the grey are too dark and makes it hard to see.
I think I can changes it in the "edit - preferences - interface" menu,
but I can't seems to make the background lighter.
Can someone help ?

>Is it possible to change the colors of the interface in LR 1.3 ?
I think the grey are too dark and makes it hard to see.
The changes that you can make are only for the background of the photograph that you are working on and how the screen looks in "Lights Out" Mode.
>I think I can changes it in the "edit - preferences - interface" menu,
but I can't seems to make the background lighter.
That is where you change the background colour. You will see the different background "colour" (black, greys, white) in two places:
If you goto Lights-Out mode (i.e dim or hide the Lightroom panels and menus). Repeatedly press L key to cycle through different Lights-out settings.
The Background colour setting determines the background shown behind your image. You can see this in Library Loupe View or in Develop module.
If you are looking to change the colours of the Lightroom interface panels, then you are out-of-luck.

Lightroom 5 Prints are too Dark - We Need a Fix Now!

Hi
Am using LR 5.7
I import images in RAW and convert to DNG.
hen I export as a JPG and print, the prints are fine.
When I print from Lightroom's Print Module, the prints come out too dark with a significant loss of detail in shadow.
Adobe.... This has been a major problem since version LR 1... It is High time you fixed it! I have wasted dozens of sheets of paper due to this problem!!
My screen is a 24" calibrated IPS ASUS monitor.
Windows 7, 64Bit.
Many Thanks
Kind Rgds

Hi Butch
Do a google search for Lightroom Prints too Dark and you will find dozens of posts for all versions of LR. It is a common problem.
There are many hardware and software issues that according to a "Google search" would appear as a universal problem, while in reality, they are far from widespread. I can assure you that Lightroom would not be as popular as it is today if this were indeed a universal problem.
Robert Mack wrote:
I also upload images from LR to a Print Lab and the prints are fine.
Yes, but is your lab making adjustments to the images during the print process? Many do. My labs do not, they simply print the files as they are submitted. Many consumer and "pro"-sumer labs apply auto correction to image files. Most of these labs do not even inform you that they are applying those adjustments.
Robert Mack wrote:
The problem is using the LR Print Module to print on a printer attached to my PC.
I have the same problem with an Epson R1900 and a Mitsubishi
Yes ... and if you are applying the same settings/instructions in Lr for printing, the problem will persist regardless of the brand of printer used.
Robert Mack wrote:
LR had ICM managed by Printer. The Printer has ICM managed by Host.
I did try this using the printer's ICM profile within LR. Still too dark.
This could be part of your problem ... if Lightroom is set for the printer to handle color management by the printer ... and your printer is set to be color managed by the host (i.e. - Lightroom) ... then in actuality, the images you are printing from Lightroom are not being color managed at all. Ideally, you should have Lightroom set to manage printing when you have the printer driver set to "managed by Host" ...
Robert Mack wrote:
No windows apps are adding any additional processing in the printing process as far as I am aware of. The only exposure correction / adjustment was done in LR..... I am choosing the same printer paper profiles in all methods of printing.
You may not be making settings in your Windows apps ... but if your printer driver is set to make auto adjustments by default when printing from these apps could explain the difference.
Additionally, many folks think they are "calibrating" their monitors when they are not doing so as it pertains to printing. Accurate color is only one phase. While your colors may appear true, the monitor brightness may be too much to accurately render a near match of what a printed version of the image would be reproduced.
As trshaner pointed out, not only do you need to render a close approximation of color ... but also overall brightness. Most monitors/displays, even very expensive and high resolution displays, are extremely bright at default settings for rendering a close match for printed material. That overall brightness level should fall within 90 to 120 cd/m2 and be adjusted as needed for your specific viewing environment and papers and printer inks combinations.

MacBook Pro to TV, Video Output Too Dark

Hi,
I have an 2010 model 15" MacBook Pro i5.
I got this video converter for Christmas:
http://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-VGA2TV-Computer-Presentation-Converter/dp/B000X3 FAJU/ref=sr14?ie=UTF8&qid=1295210644&sr=8-4
Using this in conjunction with an Apple Mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter and a standard RCA video cable, I am able to connect my MacBook to my TV so I can stream video from sites like Hulu.
My TV is a Sanyo flat screen CRT that's, probably, 6-7 years old (exact model probably isn't important).
I have no issues with the quality of the video output I'm getting (i.e. resolution, color). The issue I'm having is that the video is too dark. The video looks great on my MacBook screen, but the TV display is too dark. I have tried playing with the settings on the TV and on the converter (through which I can adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, and sharpness) and I can't, for the life of me, get the output to my TV brightened up to an acceptable level.
I have tried to use the display calibration tool in the Mac's display preferences and that didn't seem to help (I'll admit that I don't think I'm doing it correctly).
Can anyone suggest some steps that I might try in order to improve my video output?
Thanks.

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on and back off. It is very, very frustrating. The other issue is that the battery drains very quickly. I have called Verizon numerous times regarding these issues. They tell me to do different things that never help. We eventually did a factory reset and it still has the same issues. Help! It is a brand new phone and unfortunately I am in a new two year contract. Ugh. Is there anyone out there who can help me?

I have done that several times. In fact, every time I call Verizon with my phone problems, they have me do the same things repeatedly. I keep telling them I have already done them but they insist they are SURE it will work this time. It never does. After doing the factory reset and it still not working correctly, they act like they are confused, almost like I am lying. I did what you suggested above on the slim chance it would work this time but it did not. I bought two S5's that day and the other one works perfectly fine. I know I got a bad phone. Verizon just does not listen. It is a bad phone. I just want a new phone that works properly. Is that too much to ask? I bought a new phone that has been bad from day one. Why oh why do I have to spend hours of my time on the phone, in the store, on the computer, trying to rectify this? It shouldn't be this difficult! Help please!!!

ITunes Movie Rental Playback too dark

I have downloaded 100s of GBs of video podcasts, free TV programs, & other free video content from the iTunes Store since I obtained my Mac Mini (Early 2009 2.0GHz-4GB-320GB OSX.6.6, 'iTunes 10.2 (34)') in 11/2010, and they have all played admirably--no complaints--on my 14 year-old Samsung CRT SDTV (connected via Mini-DVI to VGA and this converter box [http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?cid=101&cp_id=10114&cs_id=1011407&pid=4724&seq=1&format=2]. In fact, ANY video (QT, Flash, Silverlight, etc.) I've played on it has displayed wonderfully...this is mainly what the Mini is used for.
(I should note that the Mini shipped with OS 10.6.3, but when I upgraded to 10.6.4, the overall display had a markedly richer, but darker quality to it--enhanced the desktop & apps' appearance, but (as many on these boards at the time decried) added darkness to all video. I went through convulsions re-calibrating the color using the provided system software, but could never quite get back to the as-purchased video luminance, and had to compromise with a "futzed" calibration. Subsequent OS updates have not changed this).
However, last night, for the very first time--and I've had an iTunes account practically since the iTunes Store opened--I decided to make a real purchase, and rent a movie while visiting some friends. I brought my Mini & cables over, plugged into their similar vintage Panasonic SDTV the same way as into mine: via RCA jacks; had done this before to show it off, and everything displayed fine without a hitch. We also both have FiOS broadband internet. Before renting, everything was great--I showed off photos using the OS screen saver, then played with Front Row, watched a Danish cooking show podcast (quality was near normal SDTV), so, everything was functioning properly.
I went into the iTunes Store and ordered the rental for "Inception" (no HD option, and I have iTunes configured to always play SD quality in prefs). Not five minutes after the download began (it said the 2GB+ file would d/l completely in 62 minutes), I double-clicked on the Inception icon to begin playing, and when the video window appeared, clicked the diagonal arrows to go into full screen. Boy, was this video dark! We might have thought it was intentionally produced that way, but one of my friends had seen the film in the theater, so I knew something was wrong. After half an hour of suffering (could not make out details at all--we were actually missing plot items), I paused the movie, and went into display prefs to try to lighten things up--didn't have time to do a full-blown re-calibration, but I unchecked "Show profiles for this display only" and picked a non-specific profile that was the brightest. It helped some, but at that point I figured I'd never rent from iTunes again...really a waste of $4 (beforehand, my friends were going to get the DVD from Redbox for $1, and told them the $3 savings would not be worth it).
After 90 minutes or so, I attempted to rewind a bit on the Apple Remote (old white version) as I had already done many times--but this time I supposed I held the "back" button too long, and the movie display disappeared completely. "WhaddidIdo?" So, I double-clicked the Inception icon in iTunes Rentals again, maximized to full screen, and was rather confused--the new movie window was SO BRIGHT AND FULL OF PREVIOUSLY UNSEEN DETAIL that I had trouble finding where I had originally intended to rewind to...the difference was so great, it seemed like a different film! "Don't touch anything else now!" my friends implored: "Leave it like that! That's how it looked in the theater."
WHUHAPPEND?
After the film's end, I stopped it just as the credits began, and went back to watch the beginning again...watched for half an hour or so to get what we had missed in the darkness. Then, being late, stopped it and shut down, intending to watch more of it at home before the file expired this evening. Despite the late hour, I couldn't resist hooking up my Mini at home again and trying it out. BUMMER. I could watch it, but it was back to the "dark ages." All my other videos--podcasts, streaming flash, whatever--all still look great. Just not this paid movie rental.
Any ideas, folks? I sure am skeptical now of purchasing ANYTHING ELSE on iTunes again.

Hi Epski
Let us know how you go as i'm having the same issue also. I upgraded to yosemite and itunes 12 at the same time and thought the OS upgrade was the issue. I downgraded back to Mavericks again (for lots of reasons i won't go in to here) thinking this would fix the problem but it didn't.
When i play any video content from itunes 12 in full screen goes dark once the controls fade away. QT, appletv or anything else plays them perfectly, as per itunes 11!
You don't have a Samsung TV by any chance do you?
