How to prevent standby/sleep when charging

I need to use an app on my phone constantly to enter data but I cannot find any way of preventing the phone from switching the screen off and going into standby mode.
When I resume I have to navigate my way back into the app which is very frustrating.
In WM6.5 it was possible to prevent sleep mode on mains power.  Surely something like this is available in WP7?

There are options to change the lock screen timeout to a maximum of 5 mins. There is no option to disable it though. This is specific to Nokia phone's as other wp7's allow you to disable the lock screen completely. Nokia phones don't, they have made that decision in their design.. I believe this is a bad limitation as it is very frustrating to have to unlock the phone manually every 5 mins.
This is incredibly annoying when using GPS in the car. Bing maps locks out every 5 mins making the navigation feature unusable in a car. Nokia Drive works fine though. It is also frustrating if using music when driving.
It is up to the app developer to enable code that prevents the screen locking.
I contacted Nokia about this and they have no plans to change it. They have done this to extend battery life, but that's irrelevant whilst charging.
I wish i could just disable it like every other phone in existence.

  • [SOLVED] how to prevent suspending/sleeping when closing laptop lid

    Hi all,

  • Why does my macbook pro "goes to sleep" when charging?

    Why does my macbook pro "goes to sleep" when charging? It is working fine without charging but once I attach the charger to my laptop, it just blacks out or goes to sleep mode and I can't wake it up unless I unpluck the charger.
    I read from threads that it is a logic board problem....How do I solve this problem?

    Try an SMC reset. Follow the method for "a battery you should not remove yourself."

  • MacBook Pro won't sleep when charging

    My 15" i5 MacBook Pro won't sleep when charging; a reboot of the machine solves the problem temporarily, but it always recurs.  When I close the lid and listen carefully, I can hear hard drive activity; the drive sounds like it keeps spinning up every 10 seconds or so.
    This is not an issue when trying to sleep when running on the battery only. Any advice?

  • MBP won't sleep when charging

    My 15" i5 MacBook Pro won't sleep when charging; a reset of the SMC solves the problem temporarily, but it always recurs. Interestingly, the sleep indicator light pulses as if the machine is sleeping, but I can clearly hear hard drive activity; the drive sounds like it keeps spinning up every 10 seconds or so. This is not an issue when trying to sleep when running on the battery only. Any advice?

    I would just buy a wall charger for the touch and leave your MBP alone. If you really only wanted to charge it from the MBP, just make sure it doesn't sleep when plugged into the power adapter.

  • MacBook Pro will not sleep when charging and display is closed.

    Hi,
    My Mac will not sleep when it is charging. When I close my display, it will not sleep.
    When I unplug the power cable, it sleeps...
    I've tried to reset the SMC, and I think i did, the charger went from green to red etc different colours..
    Does anybody know what this might be?
    thanks

    AIGHT GUYS!
    This is how to fix it, and i guarantee u its 90% the cause.!
    first of all, if you are a lion user (most likely all of you with this problem) go to system preferences, and then to sharing. turn all sharing OFF. especially printers....
    open a terminal, and type in :
    pmset -g assertions
    This will show u if somehting is preventing ur mac from sleeping. on the left colomn, it should say "PreventSystemSleep" and on the right colomn a number. mine was one, which is probably the same for you guys.
    Go to system preferences > Print & Scan > Open Print Queue. Make sure all the printing queues are empty and nothing is in there. You do not need to pause any or anything like that just make sure nothing is in the queue.
    Close your macbook lid and look at ur light it should be sleeping. HOPE THIS WORKS FOR U
    took me long enough to find out.
    dont hesitate to ask me any questions

  • Prevent computer sleep when Apple TV is streaming from iTunes ...

    Hi,
    Is it possible to prevent my computer from going to sleep when my Apple TV is streaming from my iTunes library ?  I was told that I can watch a port to see if there is data  streaming through it. 
    What is the port used for this ?
    Regards.
    Robert Lespérance
    Québec, Canada

    Hi Chris,
    My computer does not go to sleep in response to the system preferences's setup.  It has always been like that since I bought my iMac.  I have submitted this problem to this forum many times and was never able to find a clue.
    I don't have any other problem with my iMac and it works great.  I also didn't want to go through a full reinstall.  In order to get it to sleep, I wrote a little handler script that monitors my computer's activity.  It looks at specific apps or processes and monitors their activity.  If none of these apps or processes have been active for a specified amount of time, the script forces my computer to sleep.
    When streaming is pushed from iTunes to my Apple TV, iTunes is then acting as a server.  I can see if it is using CPU.  I monitor it's activity and put it to sleep when the delay is expired.  When streaming is pulled from my Apple TV, iTunes does not use my CPU and I don't know how to monitor this specific «pulled streaming».  I hope that this better explains what I am trying to do.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How do I prevent computer sleep when on screen saver

    Hello,
    I have an early 2009 MacBook Pro (17 in.). Since installing Lion, I have a problem when my MBP stays on the screen saver for a while. (Arabesque). I have set my Energy Saver preferences so that when on power adapter, the MBP goes in Display sleep after an hour, but never goes in Computer Sleep.
    However, when I leave it like that for a while, the computer still goes to sleep.
    Does anybody know what I need to do to make it respect the Energy Saver preferences?
    Thanks,    Dan.

    Yes it's important to have both. Basically, I'm using third party
    software, a surveillance program to trigger Insteon and X10 portions of my
    home automation. The only way to do this on a motion detection event is to
    run an executable from that program, so I'm doing so by launching LV with
    the vi as the argument. The problem currently is that when the motion even
    occurs, the vi pops up for a split second and then runs in hidden mode.
    I
    did try the transparant thing, but it still grabs focus away from the current
    application. Wouldn't be an issue at all if the pc were dedicated to the
    security system, but it's used for other stuff too.
    I do have a fallback
    and that is to listen to UDP on assigned sockets from the surveillance program.
    I would prefer not because it's intended to be used only with the remote
    video playback client program and more importantly, if LV isn't running,
    then I'm SOL. Currently, the VIs that are launched do to camera activity
    also make sure through path and call references that the other parts of the
    system running is LV is running or launched if not.

  • MBP battery drains in sleep when charger has no power

    At home I regularly plug my MBP's charger into an outlet that's on a light switch. When I'm done working for the night, I put the laptop to sleep and then turn off the light. Usually (since I'll be leaving first thing in the a.m. and the charger cord is kind of in the way) I unplug the charger and stow it, but every now and then I just leave the laptop plugged in and turn off the light.
    I've discovered that when I do this--leave the fully-charged, sleeping laptop attached to an adaptor that is not getting power--the battery drains until the point that the laptop goes into hibernation. So when it wakes up, less than 10% charge is left.
    In all other respects I have no problem with the battery and resting overnight (unplugged) it only loses a percent or two of its charge.
    Is this a bad adaptor, possibly?

    I'm not sure how that helps me figure out the problem. I suppose I'm still having problems expressing myself clearly.
    You have expressed yourself very clearly. I got it from reading your original post.
    The only thing I can come up with is somehow the charger or the Macbook is bleeding power back through the charger into the electrical lines.
    There should not be any voltage at the AC prongs of the charger when it is connect to the MBP. The flow of current should only be one way. You can check this with good multi meter.

  • How to prevent duplicate photos when sync

    I have videos and pictures that I want to keep on my phone, however when I sync to nokia suite it will sync the same photos over and over. anyway to prevent this, or do I have to delete them from phone. Also,  same thing with duplicate contacts.
    What is the best way to transfer photos from Nokia suite to disc, or memory card. I have a ton of photos on Nokia suite and want to transfer them to a disc or memory card.

    Create a new folder on your desktop, download the picture files from the CD's, delete the duplicates.
    As I see it, you now have 2 options:
    Burn new CD's or a DVD from the desktop folder as your source, and use the  Editor & Organizer - or
    Use Editor & Organizer, using the desktop folder directly
    Suggest that you stick to one of these options for this group of photos so as not to confuse the path in Organizer.

    Is there a way to disable this feature.
    Thank You

    Adobe Reader for iOS automatically saves any changes to a currently viewed PDF document when you close the document by going back to the home screen (showing the file browser).  There is no preference or option to disable/turn off the "Auto Save" feature.
    You can make a copy of your blank form before you open it.
    In the home screen, tap Documents.
    Long press (press & hold) the document that you want to make a copy of.
    Tap the overflow icon (with small three squares) in the upper right corner.
    Tap Duplicate.
    Open the newly duplicated PDF document (instead of the original one).

  • How to prevent jumbled "Events" when copying iPhoto Library

    iMac 24" 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    OsX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
    iPhoto 11 (9.2.3)
    When I copied my iPhoto 11 Library to a backup drive (original drive took a lightning strike and is limping through it's last hours of life) the copy opens with events that don't display key photos, even after redesignating the key photo. Any ideas?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • How to prevent duplicate logging when using ODL Log Handler.

    Hi,
    I have created a custom Logger for the java classes in my project( using ADF/JDeveloper). I have defined the custom logger in the standard "logging.xml" file.
    For this custom handler I am reusing the ODL Log Handler class "oracle.core.ojdl.logging.ODLHandlerFactory". I am re-using with another name i.e. creating an alias to the default ODL Log Handler to write the logs to my own log file since I am then able to change the log file path in the handler properties.
    The problem I am facing is that ODL Log Handler class is writing to the standard ###-diagnostic.log file also apart from my custom log file. Also, the same logs are being written to the console also.
    I want to store the logs only in my own custom log file and not in multiple locations. What is the way out?
    Also, is it possible to write my own Log Handler class and not re-use the ODL Log Handler class i.e not re-use oracle.core.ojdl.logging.ODLHandlerFactory?
    Regards

    I have figured this out - because the logger's parent has a default ConsoleHandler. After removing the ConsoleHandler from the parent, there is no more cosole output ...
