I have a question for Joe and a report for Monroe. First the report. For Android 0.9 beta and 1.0, I have gotten the simulator to generally shut off (blank screen) by clicking off Dev Tools->Development Settings->Keep screen on while plugged in. After a minute of no user activity the screen blanks. You then have to click a button to get the lock screen, and then click the Menu button to release the lock screen. I have tested that using the Java code snippet in android.os.PowerManager to acquire a full lock or a SCREEN_DIM_WAKE_LOCK prevents the screen blanking.
Now for Joe: Is there any way in user Java code to be able to read the KeyEvent or countdown timer to know how long ago the user pressed a key or did something under all activities? --Gershon On Aug 10, 12:27 am, Joe Onorato <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, I did most of the user space power management functions in > Android. > > The big thing that you didn't notice is that there are two classes > ofwakelocks -- kernel and user space.
