Dim Screen still working with 3.x

[Mes]

For those interested, the 'Screen dims after ..." still works in 3.x.

(Remember the old Extended Preferences, Supreme Preferences, etc option ?)
This along with Notifier, and custom backgrounds are my minimum iPhone requirements

Sure most of you knew this (haha), but here is how to add natively.

Note: Sorry, I'm not going to provide more detailed instructions. Why? Because if you mess around with this file without knowing what you are doing it will screw up your phone.

Add the following lines to /Applications/Preferences/General.plist immediately after the 'setScreenLock:' dict item:

       <dict>
            <key>cell</key>
            <string>PSLinkListCell</string>
            <key>default</key>
            <integer>60</integer>
            <key>defaults</key>
            <string>com.apple.springboard</string>
            <key>detail</key>
            <string>PSListItemsController</string>
            <key>key</key>
            <string>SBAutoDimTime</string>
            <key>label</key>
            <string>Screen dims after</string>
            <key>validTitles</key>
            <array>
                <string>15_SEC</string>
                <string>30_SEC</string>
                <string>1_MINUTES</string>
                <string>NEVER</string>
            </array>
            <key>validValues</key>
            <array>
                <integer>15</integer>
                <integer>30</integer>
                <integer>60</integer>
                <integer>-1</integer>
            </array>
        </dict>

Usage: 'Auto-Lock' must be set prior to 'Screen dims after".

I don't know if this is specific to me or not, but I had to add

"15_SEC" = "15 Seconds"
"30_SEC" = "30 Seconds"

to the General.strings file too...

BTW, thanks for bringing that up!

It is optional. Didn't bother me seeing 15_SEC instead of 15 Seconds

heh, I suppose I'm a perfectionist...
