my dysplay won t turn off only if i press the power buttn when connect it to a charger . Is it any settings that allows the screen to turn off without pressing that button ? thx !
I'm not too sure exactly what you mean, but check
Settings / display / screen timeout
Make sure never turn off is NOT selected.

when i plug in my charger display turs on and stays like this until i press the power button to turn it off .
Are you using stock charger, and is it same through ac and usb?
Weird, but I feel it's something simple.

i manage to figure it out. settings ,applications ,development, stay aweke
Excellent, don't know why I forgot about that one. Maybe it's the jetlag and no sleep for nearly 2 days. Glad it's sorted.
Edit: knew it was something simple.

The power button on my wife's HTC Desire is faulty and becomes unresponsive at times.
When this happens, it means sge cannot get access to the phone unless she either plugs in/unplugs charger, receives a call or removes/reinserts battery (phone will power up automatically when button playing up)
Phone is out of warranty and cannot get repaired right now, so what i want to know is, does anyone know of an app that can be installed that could set other buttons on the phone to activate screen when screen is off?
Any advice would be appreciated

Widgetlocker app does this on unrooted phones
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
Thank you all for your responses, i have installed widgetlocker (on desire and my own galaxy s).
on the initial start up it does advise to go unto settings to be able to set any hardware key to activate screen. But i cannot find the settings :-\ the menu icon only locks the screen as does the icon in status bar.
Can you please help me find the settings?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
Open widgetlocker from your app draw. This will cause the lockscreen to appear but is actually 'tool mode'.
Now press your menu button > settings > buttons and inputs > check Easy Wake. Done.

But all sorted, my wife is a happy bunny now, many thanks :-D

Hello, please i need help how to remove the car mode because its enabling all the time automaticly, i deleted carmode apk from the sys but it still showing up...(u can see it in status bar)
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Launch the car mode app and hit exit car mode. Its one of the big buttons. It should not be starting itself automatically... what rom are you using?
I know but i deleted that apk and it still showing off on status bar and when i click on it i get to home screen because of missing apk. But i got it, settings/locations and untick first option....i think that was a problem.

Check your USB port. It could just be dirt shorting the contacts.

What does that have to do with anything?

The usb port is very sensitive to voltage change. And a piece of dirt can trigger the car mode because it thinks the car charger is plugged in.

I am wondering if I turn off my screen is there any way to prevent it from going to sleep if I mod htc v? I am using my htc one as a dedicated webcam and is using an app called ip webcam. It does have features that can prevent it from going to sleep but it lags whe. The screen is off.
Plug it in and have the dev settings to never turn off screen while plugged in. And turn brightness way down. Hope this helped

Already done that but when screen is turned off the processor is slowed down therefore the video is slowed down.
Use Screen Standby

There is an App called Screen Standby. It will solve your purpose.
Is there any app or tweak which can leave the screen on when the phone is being powered / charged ?
If I connect the phone in my car and just want to read the odd bits while driving, the screen keeps going off.

Hi,
have you ever tried the app "No Screen Off" from the market?

Not bad but would prefer something which works automatically based on whether it's connected to a charger or not

It still dims the screen after timeout.
It says 30 min but its been on longer then that but I am downloading stuff so does that keep it on?

I have not figured this out myself. I went to bed and when I woke up it was already off

If you want to turn it off you unplug it. It's meant to be on 24/7.
It does go to sleep after 30 minutes, but pressing any button will wake it up.
If you have a PC keyboard with a power button you can use it to power it on or off. In my case on a Logitech K520 with unifying receiver, Fn + F11 has the power on/off PC logo on it.
So it want kill it to just let it run.

I know this topic is very old but encase anyone wants to know.
Amazon has added a Sleep option under
Settings > System > Sleep
if you don't want it on for 30min or so.
