That occured to me, but I'm not confident that it would be reliable. I don't like the idea of listening for 2 events, storing a status for later use, and hoping that I never miss an event or start with the screen off. One possible troublesome scenario occurs when the app starts really slow for some reason and before the listener is registered, the user turns the screen off. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
