I don't know if it works on the Ace, but there's an app called Screen Filter, that turns down the brightness of the screen and also has an option to turn off soft keys. It's useful for night reading.

Search button backlight

Has anyone found a way to turn off the backlight for the search button? I was able to turn off all other capacitive button backlights but the search button for some odd reason, even though I changed it in file manager.

This is light bleeding from the screen
I have it too, just keep the buttons on dimmest settings, so it's not off completely.

Require app to on-off screen widget

It has any app for huawei mediapad to turn on-off screen widget , thank you
Do you want a widget that can turn off the screen? If so, then you can download widgetsoid. For a simple app that can turn off the screen, lock screen app should be enough. For me, I use notification toggle and lock screen app and put the app on the notification panel so I can have quick access to turn off the screen.

Thank you, turn -off its OK, but how about turn-on withou Power button?
I would also like to be able to turn on the screen without power button. It would be good if there was an app that could turn on the screen based on orientation, ie. face down screen off, face up screen on. However, from what I've read, the gyroscope turns off when the screen is off.
In my current setup (carputer) I'm using the fact that the screen turns on when the device is plugged into the charger to wake the tablet up.
you must be looking for this one
the app is called "Screen Off and Lock"

Is there a problem with your power button? Why do you want something like this?
If you have problem with your power button, maybe you can remap your buttons, so any colume button can be power on/off your device (I don't know how to do, just an idea. I'm a newbie )

[Q] bottom bar light will not go off

Hey all,
So I just flashed MIUI 2.4 to my Galaxy Vibrant and all went well but, when I press the power button or when the screen times out on its own, the bottom bar (the one with the Home, back and options button) light comes on and doesn't turn off. This is causing some serious battery drain and I'm not sure why it's happening... Any thoughts?
Cheers!

there is a feature that uses the button lights as notification lights.
you might try clearing the notifications and turning the screen off to see if its still doing it.
if the lights go out then that's it.
if you want to disable it, I believe the option is in settings (I'm not currently on that rom or I'd check)

Capacitive Buttons

How to shut off capacitive buttons from lighting up? Did Samsung remove this feature to shut off and change duration?
Yep,,,sadly they seem to have removed this option. Annoying.
Looks like we weren't the only ones to notice

Thanks. At least it is something to use at night.
Hi, I have the S6 Edge. The touch key lights are not working at all. In Settings I have the Touch Key Light duration set to "Always On". Power Saving Mode is off, but they still won't come on. The keys do blink briefly during startup, so I do know they physically work. Any ideas? Thanks
