N97 Keeping the Display ON all the time

Is there anyway to do this?
The max time I can keep the display on for is 60 second, EVEN if the phone is connected to the mains adapter. This is rather stupid since there are times when I want the screen on all the time - eg. when connected to a power adapter in the car and running a GPS maps routing program.  I know Nokia Maps has an option to keep the screen on all the time, but as far as I can see Garmin MobileXT does not.
It seems odd to me to have to build this option into Nokia Maps - why not make it available as an option in the actual Symbian OS, then it doesn't need to be coded into every single app running on that platform.
Perhaps I am missing something? What do others do to get round this limitation?
Thanks

  • Keep the powerbook on all the time

    I keep my powerbook on all th time (which means I don't even put it to sleep ) essentially using it as a desktop. A friend of mine told me that this behaviour is bad for the hard drive as notebook hardrives are designed differently than those of desktops. Is there any truth to this. Would it be advisable to turn of the machine or make it go to sleep every day when I am not using it. I have disconnected the battery so that is not an issue.

    Making the machine sleep is not going to preserve things in any way. Your friend is wrong about this being bad for the hard drive. When the disk is not being accessed it should not be spinning anyway. You can ensure this by checking "Put hard disk to sleep when possible" in the energy saver system preferences. The only other thing to be even slightly concerned about is the display. You may wish to choose to have the display turn off after being inactive for a while, but even this isn't a huge deal.

  • Macbook battery life,  is there a problem If I keep it plugged almost all the time?

    Hello.
    New Mac user here, so I was wondering if there's a problem if I keep my MBP plugged all the time.
    Most of the time I'm on my room using my MBP fully charged and I don't disconnect it.
    Is there a problem with my batter life if I do that?
    Or it's recommended to unplug and use it till the battery run off and then charge it again?
    Because I work a lot on my MBP and that way in a simple day I could charge it and run uff the energy of the battery 2 to 3 times at day.
    What's better for the life of my battery?
    And if you could give me some advices to maintenance my battery and Macbook pro (also programs) I would appreciate it.
    I own a Macbook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2012
    2.9 GHz Intel Core i7
    8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    With OS X 10.9
    Thanks

    No. I do that most of the time.  Perhaps monthly I discharge it to the 40% level to keep the battery happy.  Do not discharge the battery completely.  If you are forced to use only battery power and you see the battery is low warning terminate your session or plug into AC if you can.
    Here are Apple articles with official battery usage guidelines:

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

    The "fix" is to get the phone repaired.  There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
    Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you. 

  • Most times when I import photos from my desktop or dropbox to iPhoto, iPhoto will keep the title I created for the image as the display title under the image. but occasionally it displays the filename instead and I have to go back through and reenter

    most times when I import photos from my desktop or dropbox to iPhoto, iPhoto will keep the title I created for the image as the display title under the image. but occasionally it displays the filename instead and I have to go back through and reenter the title in iPhoto. why the inconsistency? running OS 10.9.5 and using iPhoto 9.5.1

    Try this:  select one of the photos that are showing the wrong title and use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Title to File Name menu option.
    See if that will put the name that you want under the thumbnail.

  • My iPod touch gen5 wifi keeps dropping out. All the other iPods, iPads and iPhones don't in the house, just the iPod touch gen 5, entering the password every time is a pain, why can't it have a button to remember password like all the other devises.

    Why doesn't it remember the wifi password like the other i devises, it's a bugger entering it in every time.

    You late question did get answered:on the 18th of this month. Sounds like you did not like the answers. Starting a new post without mentioning yur first post wastes people time
    My iPod touch 5th gen isn't charging and when I plug my working charger in that I've always used a message pops up that says "This accessory may not be supported". So can I send it in for a new one if I have a warranty?

  • Keeping N85 screen on all the time

    How do I force my N85 to keep the screen on all the time when using Google Maps? I have tried to turn off all the Power Saving, Screen locks etc, but the screen still goes off after a few seconds. I have the phone plugged into the cigarette lighter so the battery running down is not a problem? 

    Install S60SpotON(free) or Smartlight (not free). These apps will keep the backlight on. Get spot on at http://www.outbank.de/index.php?id=29&L=1 or Smartlight from any S60 app store e.g Handango.

    Here, you can study this - its pretty simple code that I wrote for one of my own students to develop;-import java.awt.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class Baller extends JFrame implements Runnable{
       int top, bottom=250, left, right=250, x=100, y=100;
       boolean down=true, forwd=true;
       public Baller(){
          JPanel pan = new JPanel(){
             public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
                super.paintComponent(g);
                g.fillOval(x,y,30,30);
          pan.setOpaque(false);
          getContentPane().add(pan);
          setSize(290, 310);
          setDefaultCloseOperation( EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
          new Thread(this).start();
       public void run() {
          while (true) {
          if(down) y++;
          else y--;
          if(forwd) x++;
          else x--;
          repaint();
             if(x > bottom) down =false;
             if(x < top)    down =true;
             if(y > right)  forwd=false;
             if(y < left)   forwd=true;
             try {
                Thread.sleep(10);
             catch (InterruptedException e) {
                break;
       public static void main(String[] args){
          new Baller().show();

  • All my apps on my iPad keep turn themselves off all the time. I have reset, deleted everything on it, deleted apps, restarted... The works. Nothing helps. Input?

    Hi people. I have an iPad. Since I updated to 4 all my apps keep turning themselves off, all the time, ncluding Safari. I now have 5.1. I have done everything on the forums: reinstalled everything, deleted running apps, turned off running apps, turned off properly... I now give up and want to throw the blasted thing away. Any input? Thanks.

    Did this start happening recently?  I have seen this too and no idea why it is happening.  I find I am typing away and it just closes, I have to open it up again.  I found this first with Angry Birds, but have also experienced it with Facebook and Safari.  I have iOS 5.01 so not sure if it is related to this or another iPad issue.
    I wasn't sure if it was because of the screen or some other touch issue.

    check your account settings, possibly under advanced settings.

    You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
    Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4)

  • I d/l your mozilla firefox today and now I get the error 0x80070002 all the time...how do I fix that?

    I downloaded mozilla firefox today and now I get the error 0x80070002 all the time, and I cannot use system restore because of it. How do I fix that so that my computer works right again. I was restoring because after I d/l your mozilla today, I lost all of my contacts in my msn email...just been tearing my hair out over this and it is soo darn frustrating. Tell me how to fix this.

    Hi,
    The error is totally unrelated to Firefox. Please see [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910336 this]. The [http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us Windows OS forum] will also be helpful.
    Please also check the downloaded file by right-clicking > Properties > Digital Signatures, which should say '''Mozilla Corporation''' and '''This digital signature is ok''' in '''Details'''. You can download Firefox from a known site like e.g. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    You can try to Reset Firefox which would hopefully display the missing features, all (contacts, emails, settings etc.) of which are actually stored at the MSN site and are temporarily displayed by Firefox every time the site is accessed.
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
