Samsung Galaxy S :: Screen Timeout - When Using Phone Screen Times Out And Locks In About 5 Seconds
Sep 18, 2010I have the screen timeout set to 1 min which works fine until I use the phone. When using the phone the screen times out (and locks) in about 5 seconds. This is a real pain when using voicemail etc and you need to interact with the keypad.

Jul 6, 2010Is there any way to set the screen timeout while you are on a phone call? There are lots of times that while on a call you need to hit a number to transfer and the screen times out way to fast and you end up accidentally, while trying to get the screen to wake up, that you hit the wrong number whlie the screen is dark. There has to be a setting somewhere for this. Any suggestions?

Aug 21, 2010I would like to keep the screen timeout set to the default 30 seconds to save battery while the phone is not charging. However, I'd like to increase that to at least several minutes while the phone is charging. I don't want the screen to be always on it just doesn't seem like the best thing for the life of the phone. Could be wrong, it just feels that way.Is there any setting or app that would allow this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: GPS Application Gets Killed On Screen Timeout
Apr 9, 2009I can see on OMAP zoom2 platform, the moment screen timeout happens my application is getting terminated. I have a Google map based LBS application which is running on Zoom. I have implemented the interfaces given in gps.h to libhardware_legacy/gps.cpp .
GPS application talks to android framework and Framework talks to libhardware to get the GPS info. Now I can see that the moment screen timeout happens and the display goes off, my application killed. Actually from the framework the stop interface (hgps_stop() ) gets called on screen timeout.
I am wondring why this is happening, as I am not sending any stop request form my GPS application to the libhardware.
Is it something related to Android power manager, that android Power manager does not know about my application is running?

Android : Preventing Application - Want Screen - CPU Timeout
Jun 13, 2009I have an Android (1.5) application which needs to be constantly running when a button is pressed. So, when a button is pressed I would like the phone to remain on and not want the screen or CPU to time-out.

Android : Preventing Screen Timeout In Google Listen?
Feb 22, 2010I have a Nexus One and while using Google Listen to listen to podcasts my screen lock will go into effect. Unfortunately, when this happens, the podcast audio pauses. I can set the screen timeout to a maximum of 30 minutes but some of the podcasts are longer than that.
Is there anyway to have Listen suspend the screen timeout while it is running?
Android :: Implementing A Timer Thats Active All The Time - Even During Screen Timeout
Oct 31, 2010I've implemented a Service in my android app that starts a timer (using the standard java.util.Timer and java.util.TimerTask mechanism) to do some processing in the background on a pre-defined interval.
CODE:...
The service is started / stopped by my application like this.
CODE:..........................
As long as the phone is active (no screen-timeout occured), the service is running fine, and the Timer is performing its job at the defined interval. Even when I quit the application (using the back button), the timer remains active.
However, as soon as the phone goes into timeout, the timer task is no longer running stable. If I leave the phone in timeout for several hours (at night), I would see that on random occasions (sometimes a several hours interval) the timer kicked in.
Also, when the phone is activated again, all timer runs that have been queued are suddenly executed in one shot before resuming back to the normal interval.
What would be the right way of implementing a timer that continues to run properly, even after the phone has gone into timeout. Should I resort to using the PowerManager and WAKE_LOCKS (as described here http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/os/PowerManager.html), or is there another mechanism ?

HTC EVO 4G :: No Screen Timeout After Upgrading To 2.2
Aug 2, 2010Updated to stock 2.2 using the OTA update just now. Everything seems OK, with one exception - the screen timeout no longer works. Doesn't matter what I set it to, the screen just doesn't turn off.
I do have KeepScreen installed, so I shut off its service just in case it was interfering with something somehow. It makes no difference - the screen just doesn't time out.

Apr 16, 2010I'm having a problem with my screen timeout - nomatter what I set it to, it soon afterwards resets back to 30 seconds. I've tried 2 minutes, 10 minutes etc. and it might work immediately, but not long afterwards it gets reset.
The only thing I had running that I thought might possibly affect it was timeriffic, but I've deactivated that now and its still happening.
And yes, I know that apps like screenmodewidget and Screebl can be used to work around the problem, but I'd rather fix it!
