Xdotool will be pressing shift key once a minute. Сertainly package xdotool (from community) must be installed in your sistem.

Turn off screen while using Drive

Hi,
How can I turn off screen, to save battery, while using Drive? When I press power button, screen turns off, but I lose voice navigation.

Hi karlo1020lumia,
Welcome to the forum!
What is the model of your device? If you're referring to the Nokia Drive application, this is a normal behavior. The screen must be active for the application to work properly. If your concern is about the phone's battery, you can check this link for the tips on how to prolong the battery life of the device:

Hope this helps. Let us know the outcome.

Turn off screen while OS runs

Hello
Is there a way to turn off the screen of a Toshiba L300 19J while the system runs (plays music for example) ...?
Thank you.

But it can be programatically. Not only by OS... I thought Toshiba had an utility software for this.
Monitor power can be controlled:
SendMessage(ValidHWND, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_MONITORPOWER, MONITOR_STATE);
Maybe I'll write a small app for this...
Would be nice if Flash Cards could do this by default...
Also i found an app specially for this porpouse: http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2008/07/20/how-to-manually-turn-off-notebook-or-laptop-lcd-screen/

Turn off screen while apps run Need help

I'm running the SiriusXM app to stream music but I don't want the screen to keep after I choose my station. Does anyone know of a way to blank the screen? Is there a setting so when there is no touch activity it goes blank?
Also If you switch tabs it won't keep running the music in the background? I have a choice tunes or surf but not both?
Thanks
I'm here you wish you were too

You should be able to just tap the power button to turn off the screen. The app should keep running just fine.
If it doesn't, that's a problem with the app. I also have a music app in the Android Market and it is possible for the programmer to grab what are called "sleep locks" to enable the screen to be turned off without losing required resources like WiFi and the CPU. My app lets the screen dim, but not go off... however, the user can turn the screen off and the app keeps working.

Macbook: Turn off screen while streaming audio

I want to use my macbook for an input in my audio system. I am going to stream audio, but because I intend to use it in a darkened room, I wish to be able to make the screen shut off. Is there a command to do that or another way to do it?
Thanks.

Yes, you can put the screen/display to sleep by creating a "Hot Corner"
Open the Desktop & Screen saver Preferences, click Hot Corners (bottom left) and select one of the four screen corners and then select "Sleep Display."
When you are streaming, just move your cursor to that particular corner and there you are.

How to turn off 3G while open 2G for iphone 4s?

Apple removed the ability to disable 3G on the iPhone 4S. iOS 5.1 beta has added the switch back. Whether we'll see it in the final release is unknown. We'll just have to wait & see.

MBP turning off randomly while on battery

So my MBP keeps turning off randomly while I'm using battery, first few times it happened I thought it had just got to hot and turned off because of that. But after it happend a few times i noticed that its not even hot to the touch. Its happening what ever i am doing even when I have very low cpu usage like listening to i tunes, or just watching a movie.
Any ideas what it could be?
Thanks for any help you guys can give.

I have the same problem. It is most likely the battery has become faulty or possibly damaged. Best to replace the battery or if you can call one of the genius' at the mac store.

How to turn off screen on Macbook Air when connected to Led monitor screen?

The only way you can turn it off is to close the lid - so you would need an external wired or wireless keyboard and mouse/trackpad attached.

Turn-Off screen keeps coming up - maybe broken sleep button?

hey there,
i got my 3gs on saturday (t-mobile, germany) and it worked great for exactly one day. on sunday i noticed that the phone woke up from time to time showing the turn off screen, which usually appears if you hold down the sleep button for some seconds (red slider at the top).
after that, the same screen popped up more often, it even interrupts other actions by appearing on top of applications like phone or mail.
sometimes the phone will make a screenshot of the current screen if i push the home button, so it seems like the sleep key is stuck.
the phone has no visible damages, the button looks normal and doesn't act jammed.
all this happens unpredictably so i can't reproduce it, but its happens pretty often by now and is anoying as ****
i tried restarting the phone, resetting the prefs, resetting everything, restoring in via itunes etc.
guess is have to send it back, i just wanted to ask for more ideas and leave a mark for other affected users.
regards
jan

Bad news. I got my 3GS Saturday (6/27) at the local Apple Store. By Sunday morning, I noticed the "random" power off slider. Sometimes, the sleep switch works, sometimes it doesn't. It's gotten progressively worse...after less than 72 hours of ownership. I have a case open with Apple and a Genius appointment in 2 days. In the meantime, I suggest you DO NOT power off your phone. Apple had me do a reset (for the 4th time) and the phone would power down DURING the boot. After 10 minutes..and pressing NOTHING, it suddenly started up and ran. The sleep switch is virtually dead. The Apple rep mentioned something about "cracked circuit boards", but did not elaborate. I suspect something in the assembly process is trashing the board the switch is attached to.
