I had this problem starting with M600i, P990i and now P1. And I don't even have to restart it, just to change the settings in the backlight section. I have to say it has a mind of its own because Ican't figure out yet how to set it.Mine also remains sometimes 5% lit and I can't shut it down 100%. I don't mind...I have to add.

I think I've found the problem. The problem is; you know, sometimes UIQ phones ask for installation of an uninstalled program at bootup of the phone. And if you cannot exit or apply for the installation process, it remains in the background but you cannot reach to them, and it causes to put lights at %10 position like a program remained open and its work remained half. It's solution is:
1. Connect you phone in mass storage mode (AKA Data Transfer), or use a memory card reader.
2. Go to \\private\\10202dce on the phone's folder, from you PC
3. You'll find the installer files (.sis) just delete them and you're done
Please try this and inform this topic if it works for you.

This has been an occasional problem with the P1 after the lastest update too. Its happened to me, i found that turning the phone off pulling the battery out for 30 secs then booting back up again seemed to solve the problem.
Thanks for the trick, but it works for only one boot time, means I should pull battery out everyday. There must be another way to overcome this but how? My battery is drained pretty fast.
To MoeOz > Thanks for reply, but the settings are all Auto, and I tried also different settings and default setting but no luck.
Actually, it's a bug. And I know it cuz it happened to me since M600, P990i and now P1 from time to time. You have to keep these settings:
control panel/device/backlight/handheld:auto/power save:1min and brightness tab: backlight handheld:normal.
These are the settings and your backlight should be off in 10 seconds. But when mine doesn't I have to restart it and it's fine afterwards.
PS: I keep my light at 50% so it won't eat much energy and still be very readable at night. More than that hurt my eyes in complete darkness. One more thing: if it's not off, you can go to brightness when dimmed and put it at 10%. If the light doesn't turn off, it'll only drain your battery around 2% in 12 hours - I know, i've tried it. And had some advantage too: i can always see what time is it and if I had any missed calls, I didn't mind it wsn't switching off completely.

If you keep your light at 50%, it'll eat 2% in 2 hours or 4% in 24. Which is not the end of the world, as I said above.

Workaround to remove program asking for installation at boottime
Thanks fixxtr, was looking for a workaround for this and it worked perfectly
I used the file manager in swiss manager pro to do this directly from phone itself
choose capswitch- capabilities OFF
click each sis file in D\\private\\10202dce
it will show the details of installation
choose the file which creates problem at startup
and delete it
