I think the system update released yesterday fixed this.

Yep, instead of taking out the battery, turn it on while holding volume down.
[Nokia Lumia 820] vikeor:
thats doesnt even work... have to take out the battery.

This crap happened 3x in the last 24h. Phone is going back and I regret that I didnt take another Android phone...
[Nokia Lumia 820] AndyFZ1S:
Had to send mine back, Bear in mind this is a hardware issue and not related to the OS as my replacement is working faultlessly, Androids have their hardware issues too and I have had to send many a HTC back for repair, Am none too impressed with Nokia ATM as the wifes Lumia 900 has just had to go in for repair with a non working loudspeaker :(
[Nokia Lumia 820] vikeor:
I agree, this is Nokias last whistle if they want to survive in the phone market and so far they are blowing it... ;/
[Nokia Lumia 820] MortenRJ:
I got a Lumia 820 for X-mas with the same error.

I have update the firmware to verion 1232.5951.1249.1003 and there is still this problem where the screen is turned off and I have hold down power and "volume down" button to restart the phone. It is very annoying, special when the alarm is not working in the morning.

Is there a software/firmware solution to the problem or is it a hardware error in the phone?

I found this at nokia forum:

http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-Lumia/Lumia-820-freeze/m-p/1613474/highlight/true#M25637

I will try to turn off speech in setting and see if the phone will continue to freeze
[Nokia Lumia 820] vikeor:
I gave mine into to get replaced... Pissed me off too much to try and fix it.
[Nokia Lumia 820] MortenRJ:
After 4 days with the Speech settings turned off have the phone only freezed one in that time. The phone used to freeze 3-4 times every day. The phone af been constant turned on and I can use the alarm to wake up in the morning.

Update:

Today the Lumia 820 freezed. The only thing have have changed is that the Bluetooch have been turned with my headset, used and then turned off again.
[Nokia Lumia 820] vikeor:
got my phone back today... Unfortunately its the same phone... reflashed. Reinserted my SIM... 30min and it froze.... THANKS NOKIA! First and last phone from you.
[Nokia Lumia 820] AndyFZ1S:
That really is bad work from Nokia, I ended up selling my O2 replacement as got short of cash but cannot fault O2 as they did replace my faulty handset.

I am now debating whether to get another Nokia as had nothing but trouble with all of the Lumias me and the wife have owned, From Proximity sensor failures to loudspeaker to Device not waking up,

Think they really are in trouble now as they have shifted yet another 1000 workers :(
[Nokia Lumia 820] vikeor:
They are definately in trouble. This was there last chance and they blew it. Shoulda gone Android when they had the chance and not bash it. Some really good looking phones with crappy software.

Time to go b*tch at the guy from the store again.
[Nokia Lumia 820] phoenix155:
Possible Solution !!!!

THIS IS NOT MY COMMENT, only copied from http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-Lumia/Nokia-Lumia-920-freezing/td-p/1604040/page/13 from user

CloudStrife

I think there are many problems all software related. I wonder if all the Lumias were made using the same hardware, i.e. the same wlan adapter, the same video processor etc etc... if the answer to this question was NO, then there might be compatibility issues with the driver for different components.

Some experience the issue with the WLan I read, I exprienced that with the data network, leaving it only WLan never made it freeze. Some others with the "find my phone" option. That maybe could explain the crashes during the night?

However... I found and tried to follow a suggestion that one user reported coming from both Microsoft and Nokia, and surprisingly it seems to have fixed my issue.

I removed the SIM, then turned up the phone and left it on for 10 minutes (I read that when the "no sim" message appears, some files are supposed to be deleted, and written again when the SIM will be put back in the handset and recognized as new).

Then I shut it down, inserted the SIM back, and turned it on.

It has never frozen again, it's about four days.

My issue was when I had both network data connection and WiFi, or when I had only network data connection but with low service so it was often switching between 2G (Edge) and 3G data connection.

From when I tried that I left enabled both WiFi and network data, and it never froze again.

I don't know if it's a definitive solution, but I hope so.

What I'm pretty sure of is the fact that if I left both WiFi and network data enabled before, it was a matter of hours for it to freeze.

I hope that my experience can be helpful for someone... at least, it worths a try.

OR

Try this:

If automatic date/time settings are on, the phone freezes if there is problems with the date/time sync:

1. On Start, flick left to the App list, tap Settings , and then tap Date+time.

2. Tap to toggle Set automatically to Off.

3. Perform a "Soft Reset", i.e. press and hold the power button and volume down button for about 10 seconds; the phone should vibrate and reboot your phone.

4. After reboot date+time should be wrong! Thus, on Start, flick left to the App list, tap Settings , and then tap Date+time.

5. Tap on each of the options to set your current Time zone, Date, and Time. When you're done, tap the phone's back button.

IMPORTANT Don't turn on automatic date+time setting again!

OR

It is the Network + update and affects everyone!

Hey guys,

I have Samsung Omnia M, WP 7,5 Mango and I want to ask, is it possible to unlock it?

I didn't find any worth threands about it, so think it's pretty rare phone, isn't it?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cheshyre:
I'm considering switching from rooted stock to a custom rom, but hate the thought of having to reinstall everything / reconfigure settings, etcetera.

Even with Titanium Backup, it still seems like a huge hassle. (I use Tasker/Zoom for custom widgets)

For those running custom ROMs, how often do you update/upgrade your ROM, and how long does it take you to get your apps and settings back the way you like it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
After a full complete wipe to avoid errors and force closes. I sign into Google, sync everything and it downloads all the previous apps that I've been using. Sign into all my favorite apps. Setup my launcher and theme. Place widgets. Wallpaper. Sounds. Settings adjustments. For me 30 minutes to an hour. I'm not a Tibu master yet. I'd rather wipe everything and start new. Unless I'm using a Cyanogenmod nightly then I'll just wipe if it starts acting goofy. Check out Black star and Novena if you get a chance ..Nice Roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Titanium back-up pro one touch batch restores, (NEVER ANY SYSTEM SETTING IN RED) if you backup your launcher data all you'll have to do is add widgets again. And since I'm a minimalist and have 1 home screen with 0 widgets, I just set it down till it vibrates the notification that the restore is done.

Then change any system settings to my liking.

Depending on how customizable the rom itself is takes me from 10 to 15 minutes and I'm done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
What ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Said....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ahlex:
like what darkchyld said... and try out blackstar and novena. Both roms are very nice, but i prefer novena just because it has the sg3 ripple effect lockscreen. If blackstar had the ripple effect lockscreen i would definitely go with blackstar. "wink wink".. Bigfau.. next update add the sg3 ripple effect lockscreen please. =-p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
How often you flash depends on you. I like to try the updates but lots of users are on rooted stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
I have 11 rom backups, all from the offering here..

And I'll use 5-6 different roms per week....

I'm a "TRUE" flashing addict......g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Psykologikal:
I used to flash a lot. I started with the sgs1 and I flashed almost everyday. Now I have the note and am still on aokps supported device list. I tried alot of other ROMs but I've always found I come back to aokp.

So to answer now I flash whenever aokp has an official release. So every few weeks and it takes me around 45 min yo restore all my settings and inverted apps and what not. Longer if I use titanium but I usually don't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Radimus:
Maybe every month or so... Depends on whether there is an update to the ROM worth having or the device seems to freak out more often.

I have a titanium backup of the core apps that I use (Enhanced Email, ROM Manager, Tasker, Juice Defender, Swype, QuickPic, SMS Database, etc...) That I have set for automatic backup 2x weekly (Wednesday and Sunday nights)

When I flash a ROM, I just chain in the JB apps, Titanium backup, and my core apps backup... I can usually be back in business within 15-20 minutes of the first boot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpcdeux:
Every day or two
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bradl79:
I do mine quite often about every other day. It only takes about an hour to restore everything back for me.

I also create my own mods to install certain apps with the rom and delete apps i dont want by flashing when i clean install rom. With my own themes too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vanemburghj:
I update the second I see there is an update, always dirty flash and 99% of the time no issue. If there is I wipe everything clean flash and restore with titanium back up. Root and flash away grass hopper.

***DELETE***

This app is now outdated. I am going to re-write it completely from scratch. I will obviously include the standard features, but is there anything else you users would like me to add?
[Android Apps and Games] WarlockW:
Very Cool ..

Thanks for the update :)
[Android Apps and Games] adl:
Cool, thanx for updating this little gem!

I used it but it wasn´t working more for me with ICS 4.0.3, so i switched to another app, but always liked the option to have the screen go a bit darker and not stay with full brightness.

Havent looked at your improved app but could you make the constant notification tick/untickable? I never experienced that the app stopped working, so i wouldn´t need this and i hate to have any icons in the notification bar :eek:

The autostart option is VERY nice to have! :good:

EDIT:

Just installed and saw there is already an option for the notification icon, great!

Working very nice so far, will monitor it and give you some feedback during the next days.

Thanx again, really nice to see this app is liked by other people as well. :D

This sounds like a great app that could be well used on certain apps that you want the screen to stay on, well done to both developers, now I am wondering as a noob and still on a learning curve, will this app work on a Galaxy GT-S5830i rooted device and what would be the best way to install.

It would be great to get some advice on this. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
Yes this should work on any device rooted or not! :)

To install just download and use a file browser to tap on the downloaded file.
[Android Apps and Games] tboooe:
Thank you. Looking forward to trying this out on my rooted razr.
[Android Apps and Games] sljenkins87:
Yesss this is what I have been looking for so long and I am supper excited to get this on my note that I am getting back tomorrow
[Android Apps and Games] sasa g:
It work on my Neo V. TNX :)
[Android Apps and Games] manu_18:
Just two points for me:

Adding a widget to enable and disable the service and it would be fantastic.

Stopping the service when the screen is turned off (or alternative) because I saw my screen turn back alone (synchronization of a monitored application?)

Thank you for your work.
[Android Apps and Games] zenosteam:
will try it , i was waiting for this kind of application , thanks
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
It has a listener receiver for screen off. Sometimes if you have an app open that you set to stay on all the time, and you manually shut it off, it turns back on. That's just because the service didn't shut down fast enough.

And I don't have source code. I doubt I could add a widget.

However I could write my own app that force close the service. (Almost like a task killer) but it won't be able to start the service.
[Android Apps and Games] FractalSphere:
I really loved this app when it first came out, but it fell by the wayside for various reasons.

Thanks for picking up the slack here! You'd think this is something they could actually build into android at some point. Apps that when on-screen don't let the phone blank the screen. O_o

Tried it and it works great! =)
[Android Apps and Games] manu_18:
Ok Thanks for the reply.
[Android Apps and Games] ahkow:
I like this apps, it keeps my google map always on. However I need to manually start the apps on each power up. Any way to have an option to auto start? Second nice to have feature is to sort these apps selected at the top.
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
You're saying after selecting the apps you wish to have the screen remain on, then clicking "start/stop service" then rebooting your device, you must manually restart the service?
[Android Apps and Games] ahkow:
After select the apps, eg google map and click start. It works fine. But if I reboot my phone, start google map the screen will off, I need to launch this apps and click start again.
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
What ROM device? When you start your phone, do you see a "KeepService starting.." toast message?
[Android Apps and Games] rainabba:
another option with a different approach and more features

You might also want to check this out. More options and control plus extra features on top of the behavior you seek: http://androidheadlines.com/2012/12...ile-improving-battery-life-while-playing.html

I don't mean to take anything from your app and have nothing to gain. I find this app invaluable though so I figured it was appropriate to share.

hi elesbb

very cool app. small request. can u add feature for dim light for the selected Apps. i mean where it goes from 100% to 50% and styas on in 25% light. something like that :) would be very cool in my opinion . cheers!!!!

[Android Apps and Games] Soundtrack to Chaos:

I save my long presses for utter and torch tho,lol

But I will check it out
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
I have mine customized. Any app I wanna launch from anywhere I mod and add the long press shortcut
[Android Apps and Games] Soundtrack to Chaos:
On my gs3 I have utter set for my menu button and I have the widget locked into my navigation bar on the PacMan rom
[Android Apps and Games] Soundtrack to Chaos:
Hm.. Just realized this app doesn't even work half the time, on both my nexus and my gs3,while I had sms backup and amazon app store on respectively, both devices turned themselves off

On my nexus, it actually turned back on for some reason after it went off
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
Wait when you say the screen shut off then turned on again, did it shut off by the device's timeout? Or did you shut it off?

And I know it fails to work sometimes. It's android killing the service. I just realized I modded my ROM to have my background services never close. Well after flashing cm10 I never did that mod and I noticed the service was getting cleaned up by the os. It's actually normal and proper operation by the ROM.. but we don't want that. Lol. I'll see what I can do. I hate having the notification icon always showing in my statusbar. So I'm gonna figure out how to (if possible) to make the service stay alive without the notification.
[Android Apps and Games] Soundtrack to Chaos:
Oh ok

I mean the screen just turned off and came back a second later, it was soo random and weird lol
[Android Apps and Games] garbageguy:
thank you for picking this up again. ever since i moved to jellybean, none of the apps that i used that kept a list of apps to activate with have worked for me (they hang and crash when loading the list of apps) - i have used your updated version a few times, but at times it stopped working (dies, and i find myself at the lock screen). any idea ?

thanks

phone: galaxy s3 at&t, jelly bean 4.1.1 (stock); and yes, the notification icon stays on when launched.
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
Ok so i was poking around and there is NO way to keep the service alive WITHOUT a notification. HOWEVER, i can make the notification icon (the one in the status bar) invisible, meaning you wont see it unless you drug down the notification bar. However, it will still take a place in the status bar, meaning every other notification will be pushed to the right by a wee bit.

I'll see about getting it finished soon.
[Android Apps and Games] Soundtrack to Chaos:
Can't you just make it an ongoing notification without the icon?

I've seen other apps do it
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
Yes if I had source code, I could do whatever I want. But I'm using smali code. Very troublesome to tinker with and inject code into the correct places as well as debugging where issues lie. I might try emailing them for source code. But since their website is down I'm not getting my hopes up.
[Android Apps and Games] Soundtrack to Chaos:
Oh ok, I don't have issues with it my gs3 currently, just on my nexus its inconsistent

Both running 4.1.2 ROMs
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
Yeah. It's androids clean up process. I have my own dummy service I wrote just to test it out. And I figured out how to keep it alive. Also, the notification icon is invisible and always the foremost right icon so you can't even tell it's there. Now to import it into the smali code.. ugh lol. But I love a challenge!
[Android Apps and Games] garbageguy:
i do understand that you don't have access to the source code and i appreciate tremendously that you go through the trouble of doing this for us. i had no issue with having an icon at the top; as a matter of fact i personally prefer having it at the top to remind me that this thing is running (ie draining my battery ;) )

i use endomondo on my bike rides to monitor my calorie usage, speed, and distance covered. however the "geniuses" who made endomondo failed to provide an option to keep the screen on while using it (i have my galaxy s3 strapped to my bike's bar handle) - yet they provided that option to ios users. other rival software to endomondo on the android platform provide the option to keep the screen on, but i don't use them because they don't have the features i want...

i have used keepscreen (your version) with endomondo a few times (endomondo added to list of apps to launch/enable keepscreen on). 2/3 of the times it worked flawlessly for the 40+ mns i needed it. the other 1/3 of the time, it died well into the workout (30+ mns later) and the screen eventually turned off (not aware that it died until the screen turned off). pressing on the home button on my phone showed the android lock screen which android only goes to after a screen timeout. unlocking the screen shows endomondo running, but no sign of keepscreen in the status bar.

i hope that clarified things a bit.

again thank you for all your efforts :)

ps: phone is samsung galaxy s3 (sgh-i747) running stock at&t rom

OP UPDATED!!!

Included a version which has on going notification. HUGE thanks to theos0o for finding my derp mistakes and teaching me something new :)

Here are screenshots of the notification.
[Android Apps and Games] reinbeau:
By 'ongoing notification' do you mean it's always up there, like WidgetLocker? I'm going to give that one a try. I had this enabled earlier today on a timer program and the screen kept shutting off. Thank you for the update :)
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
It's always up there yes. But I was smart and made the icon image transparent, so your status bar is empty. You'll only see the notification when you drag down the status bar. And yes I love this updated version so much more! This app is like perfect now! ^-^ I'm happy! :3
[Android Apps and Games] elesbb:
I added two screenshots for everyone!
[Android Apps and Games] adl:
As your first version is running perfectly fine, I think I don't have to update to the new version. Still download it in case I run into any problems, so I can try the new version. Thanks again for taking the time! Great app!
