Thanks hackbod, that worked great.
One more question though: I'm acquiring my wakelock in an activity, as
well as attempting to release it in the OnDestroy() function of the
activity itself. Is there a good way to destroy the activity
programmatically? It doesn't appear to be done automatically

Call finish(). Once you return control back to Android (e.g., leave the
on...() callback you're in), your activity should be gracefully shut
down, including having onDestroy() called.

Hi Mark,
Sorry, I forgot to mention that I would like to destroy the activity
from a different class not associated with the activity. Is that
possible?
Provide that class with a reference to your Activity when you create it.
E.g.:
class ActivityKiller {

Thanks again.

Thanks Mark. I went about this another way, as I forgot to mention
that I was going from an activity, to a broadcastreceiver, to a class.
I ended up calling the same activity with the FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP
and FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flags, and then calling the finish() in the
onNewIntent event
Interesting... I'll give that a shot. Thanks.

Hello,
Another question on this:
Have you seen the Stopwatch application developed by Tom Taylor? I
just downloaded it, and it keeps counting after the phone is put to
sleep entirely. Any ideas on how he's doing that? I'm looking for that
kind of functionality.
Thanks again.

Maybe PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK, looking at it now... interesting.

Yes, for both these things, you need to hold a partial wake lock to
keep the phone from turning off.
