Hello, LC Gurus...

I am looking for a command or library to keep screen "ON" while running my program.

I need to update db records while locationChanges, but android keeps turning off.

Any good ideas on how to do this?

Have you tried mobileLockIdleTimer? The first time that I used this it didn't work because I forgot to also tick Idle Timer in the Android stand alone application settings.

Regards

Kim
