Does anyone know of an app that will turn my tablet screen on at a programmed time?
I have my tablet next to my bedside in a stand and I have an app that turns the screen off at 11pm.
My alarm app that goes off M-F at 6:25 turns my screen on for the alarm, etc, but on Sat/Sun, I don't use the alarm so I'd like something that just turns the screen on (no alarm) for those two mornings without me having to touch the tablet. I have searched high and low and there are tons of screen wake/on apps on Google play, but none of them do the one thing I want an app to do, which is to turn on the screen at a programmed time!
Has anyone seen anything like this anywhere?

I appreciate the help and I realize you're tapping this out on a phone, but I really don't understand what you're suggesting.
He means Tasker is the app you are looking for bro.

Download the app called Tasker and the plugin app called Secure Settings and you can set up a task to turn the screen on at any time. Another app similar to Tasker is Automagic Premium (might be a lite version also). Automagic can turn the screen on as well. Tasker and Automagic Premium both cost money. Secure Settings is free.

I would suggest calling an exorcist.

Oh that's the accessibility feature called talkback I think. To turn it off you have to go into Browser Settings or System settings to turn it off. I can't tell you precisely where to go as my xoom isn't with me at the moment.

Settings
Accessibility
Under there you have a check box for turning on Accessibility, then under that options for SoundBack and Talkback.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any apps that could do the following?
1-Quiet Hours-Looking for an app that could duplicate what CM's quiet hours does.
2-Also looking for an app that will allow me to create a folder in my app drawer that would contain several applications. I also would be able to link an icon that I would keep on my home screen to open the folder. (desktop visualizer seems to do some of this but not all).
Any help or suggestions are appreciated
For quiet hours I use an app called silent time from the play store. Works a treat

Do you know if that gives you the ability of getting incoming phone calls?
Yes. It simply turns your phone to silent or vibrate and you can set times to turn on and off. You can also set it for different days too.

Beautiful Widgets also has a widget similar to the quiet hours. It allows you to perform a number of actions (including turn off sound) for a set amount of time.

The important thing for me with quiet hours is that I can mute all sound but still get incoming calls

For quiet hours, try AutomateIt and set triggers such as time period to turn off certain volumes.

"Folder Organizer Lite" in the market will set up a short cut on your home screen to a folder that can contain up to 6 apps. Let me know if you need some help.

Hi!
Is there an app to mute and turn off vibrate when I lock the device? My phone is my primary device, connected to the same accounts and I would like the tab to only make noises when I unlock it. So far I didnt find a setting or app for this. Could you help me?
Try tasker or locale

I use Silent Sleep

Tasker worked like a charm, but I will search for this silent sleep in the afternoon, I'm guessing it uses less resources since it's more specific
when i receive a text my screen does not automatically turn on when im usuing google messenger. is there a setting i need to activate to make it work?
I've never had it turn on regardless of the phone I'm using. I believe that's how Messenger is. I don't think you can change it.

AcDisplay changes the whole lockscreen, I just wanted the screen to switch on for a few secinds like active display and adaptive display in moto X and nexus 6 when any notification is received to glance it quickly on lockscreen without having to pick the phone press the power button
