Has the dimming been fixed? - try running the ffalarms clock or manually changing brightness - the dimmer subtracts something from the brightness value and after a couple of iterations you have zero brightness - and cant fix without a reboot so you can see the screen again :(
Also, in daylight (its peak summer here in Australia), the screen disappears as once the dimmer cuts in, the screen isnt bright enough to be seen (and starting at 80% brightness means it is only barely visible in the shade anyway). And try reading an ebook without disabling the dimmer :( The new shr-today is only a little faster when I tried it, but seems very flaky in that it often stops working and needs a reboot before it will work again. Do you have a clock, GSM and battery readings? - they were not present when I tried and none of the suggested fixes worked? Some of these problems are fixable (disable dimming altogether) in the config files, so I am waiting for an updated version that addresses these issues (prob after xmas I guess) - dimming is a good powersaving feature when on a call, but too much of a problem elsewhere ... maybe make it limited to calls only?
