I own a 8320 from T-Mobile. For the 2 months I have had it I have struggled to see the keypad lettering. It seems that the keys are so datk even with the light on.

I went over to ATT to look at their curve and seemed as if the keys were more visible or brighter. I did not have to strain to see the lettering.

Am I imagining this difference. I need to make my keys on my T-mobile 8320 more visible. They are simply too dark for my aging eyes. I am thinking about changing the keypad of my t-mobile 8320 for the one for the ATT (I believe 8310).

Any suggestions on my delimna. Are there brighter or more visible keypads for the 8320. Or maybe I am imagining things.

Also if I go with a different keypad, where can I get one from. I did a search and all of the third party vendors are selling faceplates and not the actual keypads

If this is just an issue of backlight brightness, go to options > screen/keyboard and adjust the backlight.

No, I have my backlight brightness set to 100%

So it's your vision? Gotcha. No suggestions other than look for a BB that works for you. If you are talking about installing another keypad, your out of my league.
