After banging my head on the wall a few times, and that menu options in CPS are everywhere... here is what I found reguarding the auto lights and display backlights for the APX7000 front display radios:

Top display backlight on, front display on usage or channel change, then a dim front display after timeout:

Radio Ergonomics Wide -> Display
Auto light: Checked
Independent top lights: Unchecked

Radio Profile -> (click on the profile(s) you want to change)
Permanent Front Display Backlight: Check

If you want just the top display to light up:
Auto light: Unchecked
Independent top lights: Checked

Permanent Front Display Backlight: Uncheck
(use a button to turn on/off front display)

I am sure there are some other neat variations, but those are the top most popular. Having that 2nd display setting in the radio profiles seem to trip people up.
