I am creating an Android service which constantly runs in the background. I'd like to be able to intercept calls to the power button to: a) prevent the screen coming on and b) handle the power button press in a different manner.
This is to enable the user to have a very simple interface to my application and prevent wasting battery powering up the screen when it is not required. I will probably need an alternative mechanism to actually bring the screen back up (such as an extended key press or similar), but this only becomes relevant if what I'm after is possible.
