Help Soft key buttons illuminate problems?

I have an LG Optimus ME P350 Android phone that has a soft key for a back button, but I was wondering if it's possible to use the touch screen to go back instead of using the soft key? For example, when using Android 2.x I go into the default sms app and there is no onscreen button to go back, so I have to use the soft key button.
The reason I'm asking is because the soft key backlight doesn't illuminate when the touch screen is pressed, so at night when I am in the SMS app and I want to navigate backwards, I cannot even see the 'back' softkey because it doesn't illuminated. The soft key backlight only illuminates when you press them.
