Hi all!
I have a little problem with this top phone. After disconnected from docking station, the phone doesn't go to screen sleep. Screen Attention mode is off. Any idea? TY
Not sure what you mean by docking station. How long is your screen off delay?

I connect phone to Dell D6000. Phone timeout Is set to 30sec. Desktop mode timeout set to 5 Min. When disconnect from docking station, settings remain ti 30 sec, but timeout Is unlimited
I'm sorry, beats me. You may try calling Motorola Support or chatting with their support.

(This was posted in the Titan forum, but since I beleive it is not device specific, I'm re-posting it here... )
I love using a2dp in my car stereo... sound quality is great, and I love carrying my tunes wirelessly from my WM6 PPC (HTC Titan) to the car speakers (Sony BT25000 stereo head unit installed in car).
Only problem is that I try to keep the screen off to save battery power, but everytime I press a command on my stereo (pause, next, previous, etc...), it wakes up the phone and I need to screen toggle it off again each time!
This is very annoying, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this problem, and is there a workaround?
I was thinking of writing some sort of MortScript to constantly check if the screen is on, and if so apply a screen toggle command, but it seems like this may create the problem of an infinity loop when I DO want to use it (turn on device, mortscript turns off screen off right away, repeat). Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I have noticed that when I use Core Player, the screen wakes up for a split second when a command is received and then does back to sleep. Of course, you would have to go through the menu of core player to activate the 'screen off' feature. This was tested on a X7501 running WM6.
Hello,
i am using my touch cruise (or better o2 xda orbit 2) for navigating on my bike.
I use it in my pocket, only listening. After some research and testing i found a way to use tomtom with locked screen.
I now want to turn the backlight off because of power consumption. But when locked the backlight is only turned to minimum, not off. How can i turn off the backlight completely ?
I tried several tools which turns the whole display off. This works fine with all applications except tomtom, i dont know why but as soon as the display is switched off tomtom stops.
So i want to turn at least the backlight completely off, but how can i do that?

With my older pocketpc's and pocketphone's the backlight could be turned down with pressing the power button for a longer period.
I told it was about 3 sec holding te powerbutton and the backlight stops.
But with the HTC TC i din't tried it yet..and my device is now at the repair centre..so you have to try it.
But when the backlight is down..you don't see a think when ther is enough sun light..so why do you want that..buy a usb car powerplug and you can charge it and use it with full light on!
Does not work (3sec pwr button)
I dont need to see anything on the screen. it will be in my pocket while navigating so theres no need for backlight.
And a car charger on the motorbike - that would need a socket to plug it in.

Thanks, i already tried it before. As soon as the screen gets black TomTom stops.
It says it turns the backlight off but as far as i can see it disables the whole screen. And as soon as this happens the f***ing TomTom stops the Navigation.
If i press the pwr button for 3 sec the device asks me if i want to turn it off.

Hi remoh, I'm having the same problem. Have you found a solution for disabling the backlight by now?
How did you manage to lock the screen and keep TomTom navigating?
Let me get this straight... do you want to turn the screen off (i.e. lock it) or just turn off the backlight (in which case the screen remains active)?
For the second case there should be some options for it in TomTom, but it's primarily for in-car use. (never used TomTom before, it's crap for my country... i'm just basing on iGO)

Being able to turning the screen off would be great but just being able to turn off the backlight would be fine also. Tomtom doesn't have an option for this afaik.
Now, thats the second reason i won't use TomTom... if the first wasn't enough
Not even power saving options?
I've tried a search to no avail.
Is there a way to just have the screen turn off with putting the device to sleep? On my TP if I'm listening to music thru the HTC built in music player or Coreplayer (streaming media), the phone no longer sleeps after a time out. It simply stays on with the screen dimmed. This is wasting battery life in my pocket. Can I just turn the screen off and keep the device awake? Pressing the power button puts it to sleep and the music stops.
Is this normal or is it because I've enabled auto lock feature with advanced config?
On my old universal I could just close the lid to turn the screen off. Is there a way to do it on this - maybe something like press and hold the power button while it's locked (otherwise it'll turn off!). Or better still - for it to recognise music is playing and just turn the screen off automatically and not sleep.
Cheers,
LLOYDY
Am I being stupid and missing something ridiculously obvious or is this not possible?...
I am working on an app that can to do this.
The current development thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431328
You can be my VGA tester if you like . (Post and problems / findings / etc. in there)
Download 0v01c and change the settings to Lights Out, then press Sleep.

Try the excellent today plugin called DevState (Device State). Its has a "turn off screen" option which is what I think you are after.
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-devstate-v1-5.html
It can be seen in my today screen below:
Cheers guys! Will look into these.
Stupid me - phone goes off by itself anyway. You just have to wait.

I noticed that after using the phone for a few hours, the screen will stay on unless I specifically hit the power button to turn it off. The screen off time is set to 15 seconds.
If I reboot it, it will go back to normal, i.e. turning the screen off by itself.
Any one experience this? Some app bug? How to fix it?
Hmmm. Is "Smart Stay" on or off? Do you have Dev Options enabled? If so, is always on while charging option on? All I can think atm.

Have you disbled any services or packages with Package Disabler Pro?
I don't have any of these mentioned issue, and I am still trying to pin point which app is the trouble maker.
Call Samsung support, and they said if I have bluetooth device as "trusted" home/location, they have seen such issue, and want me to turn off these "home" indicator Bluetooth connection.
I effectively turned off the Bluetooth wireless, and this afternoon, after a close to 2 hours meeting and was irritated to find out the screen has been on all the time.
I am going to find a good startup manager and disable APP one by one to see which is the bad boy.
thanks
I have galaxy watch 4 classic.
I adjust screen time out for 30 second or higher but it turn off immediately when it turn on. Could anybody help please?
is a bug but samsung is doing nothing
it doesn't work with wrist movement but when you wake it up by touching the screen it works
Something similar here. When I receive a notification, if I raise my hand to see it sometimes (2 out of 10) the screen turns off before I can even see the notification. I have read this is how Samsung designed it in order to save battery (if you move your arm when the screen is on it turns off) but in case of a notification it should give at least 4-5 seconds before turning off. Is there any way to sove it? Maybe disabling motion sensors or whatever? Ahy idea?
Thank you for your help
