I had this too, I recommend resetting the screen timeout in the app to the value you want.

That would be great. I would prefer the tasker plug in, since it give us more freedom in when we want it disabled ;)

yeah lite version is working flawlessly...

what do you mean? i tried to set different timeouts, none of them worked...

EDIT: ok, i resetted the screen timeout in android to 15s. then started keep screen on, set the timeout there to 15s too. now it works...

timeout problem

@developer:

Hi,

I have a HTC One. I put screen-off to 2 sec and sometimes it works and sometimes it takes 15 sec (I read about the device minimum timeout, however it works sometimes with 2sec as stated before).

What can I do?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
Timeout works a little weird. It should be because some time the timer is reached (15s) and then you pick the phone up again, so next time you put phone down, the timer is already reached. Experienced this few times myself.

[Android Apps and Games] NishantM:

[Android Apps and Games] BARTLETT M.:
But using the proximity sensor doesn't consume extra battery? I love your app precisely for the very low consumption of data and battery...

In any case, good job!
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
The short answer is no. Proximity sensor (generally) has a low battery impact. Anyway my app polls for some data only every 2s, so that the sensors are not constantly enabled.

Hi DDeleted,

I noticed that when applying changes, I have to reboot my phone for Keep Screen On to work properly:

Use case:

- keep screen on works OK (screen stays on if phone is in my hand, screen goes off if phone is place on my desk).

- I click on the icon (notif bar) to change settings (ex: extend degree)

- I click on restart for changes to be taken into account

- I hold my phone in my hand: OK, screen stays on

- I put my phone on my desk: NOK, screen stays on

- reboot

- keep screen on works OK now (screen stays on if phone is in my hand, screen goes off if phone is place on my desk).

My device: Galaxy Nexus with AOKP.

Am i doing something wrong ?

Tell me if you need more info ;)

See you,

Ben

[Android Apps and Games] benoit.btd:
It's OK for me since 1.5... But I had to do 1 reboot. Since then, when changing settings + restart app, it's working fine (screen goes off with phone is placed on a desk).
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
I have not encountered the wavelocks (have 1.5 pro)
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
However, I find pro 1.5 sporadically inoperative! I.e. holding phone within range, icon not lit, screen goes off. Stuff like that.

The persistant notification icon should keep this operative but maybe this should be a service (under accessibility). Or maybe this is not the problem at all?
[Android Apps and Games] Robert1973:

The application works fine on the Galaxy S2, the screen blanks when I'll put the phone on the desk. A little annoying banner but such a life...
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:

1.5 is equal to 1.4 with 1 more feature. Did you enable the new feature?
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Yes, and it does work. I do not know the reason for the erractic behavior. I do think that such apps should be services.
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
It is a service! Do you have a task killer?
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
If one needs the persistant nofitication to keep it running, then it is not "purely" a service. What I mean is turning it on from settings->acccessibility.

If a task killer killed it, would the icon have disappeared? Maybe it was a low-memory problem running a higher priority activity.
[Android Apps and Games] kurokirasama:
Hi,

I just tested the disable when no movement is detected feature and it works fine, but it could be improved by also checking touch input. I was using the phone without moving it and the app turned off the screen.

[Android Apps and Games] tramp20:
You have luck, I cannot reproduce this :)
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
It requires the icon because it's a foregrounded service, it means that it has less possibility to be killed from the system in low memory conditions (ex. When running a huge game).

I'll see what I could do to improve this.

It means it's now solved?

Seems pretty logical to as what KSO does is keeping your phone awake :D

Problem with disable when no sensor movement detected.

When the timer expires the icon turns gray and the screen off timer kicks in, any movement after that doesn't disable it, the icon remains gray and the screen turns off.
[Android Apps and Games] Dhiraj:

[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
Yes, that's exactly what it does. It's a normal behaviour. I will try to integrate some sort of touch feedback to know if it's the case of turning of the screen.

It world be nicer if you create an email group of PRO version Nexus 4 users who have contacted you via email for new update and email the app whenever you release a new version.

A much better idea world be to put an info in CAPS in the description of the app in Play Store that it may not work properly with Nexus 4 and then enable Nexus 4 under supported devices.

It becomes a pain to keep checking this thread about updates and then contact you time and again to get the latest version of the PRO apk.

[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
You are right, I have enabled compatibility for Nexus 4. Sorry for the inconvenient!
[Android Apps and Games] kobik77:
Thanks.

My take on ideal keep screen on functionality:

Let us assume that the timeout set in keep screen on is 10s.

1. Phone is laying flat and is unlocked

1.a. Movement/touch registered -> Timer restarts to 10s

1.b. 10s passed -> Screen turns off

2. Phone is in hand and is unlocked

2.a. On movement/touch registered -> Timer restarts to 40s (Configurable time is preferable)

2.b. 40s passed -> Screen turns off

3. Phone is locked in either states -> Use android lock screen default timeout

* Anyway when phone starts dimming and the user moves/touches the phone timer should be reset according to the appropriate state.

BUG:

Currently it gets enabled even behind the lock screen (screen on but still locked with password or pattern). (Note 2, stock-rooted, 4.1.2)

SUGGESTIONS

1. Please add/allow (optionally) some subtle sound feedback - for when it falls out of range/ when it comes back in range.

2. Integrate it with Tasker - as a plugin.

3. Have the range value on the bar change dinamically and reflect the current value - as you change the cursor. Easier to set.
[Android Apps and Games] grognaz:
ok maybe it is like that, but i think after i unlock the screen when this happened it ignores the movement and orientation and just turns off after 15s. i will try to reproduce the issue.

oh and in my dock it stayed alive for ever, is it disabling the screen timeout completely when i choose disabled while charging?
[Android Apps and Games] trevor12:
some features

Hi, I have only some ideas about application for battery saving ..

This application (for android, for laptop win 7,8) using integrated web cam - kepping (tracking) eyes (head) motion - movement (eyes contact with screen) and set some angle border decides screen on or screen of if my eyes (face recognition) is IN some angle or OUT of this angle (border) - maybe by using near proximity sensor ?

So this ideas are sci-fi, utopistic or "real" ?
[Android Apps and Games] ariftwister:
The ultimate aim of this app is to minimize the battery consumption.. But using front camera eats up the battery..i guess

[Android Apps and Games] kobik77:
It's rather useless, much less efficient and more likely a show off like Samsung's feature.

Two major cons for it, it uses lots more battery and more prone to error.

Ddeleted's way is much more efficient and easy on the battery, he just needs to iron his bugs.

Speaking of bugs, Ddeleted how can it be that while driving and my phone is in the home screen, Keep screen on decides to turn off the screen after 40s?

And what do you think of my previous post?
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
It is possible , because it only checks 1 axis for orientation, so when you are driving the phone is in the same position on that axis.

Moreover I decreased High accuracy sensitivity. I plan to add ultra high accuracy level for situation like this.

Android doesn't offer an API to track touches outside an app, so I should try to find a work around.

I think 3 could be accomplished, so I think I'll make a "disable in lockscreen" check in next versions, since few users are requiring it.

I just come to ask for a "disable in lockscreen" option and saw it is already coming.

Just to be sure...

My problem is when I put the phone in my jeans pocket. I noticed that when some message comes or when the power button is pressed by the jeans and the screen turns on, the app enter in effect and "keep the screen on", so now while I'm walking, the screen rolls from lock pattern to the camera widget and start to take pictures. Last time it happened, it takes 34 shoots of the inside of my pocket and my phone almost got on fire, so hot it was and the battery was almost gonne.

But when the phone is outside of my pocket, this app is just perfect. Thank you.

I'm on Lite version, so no such option to try... gonna buy it later. I just saw you have a Gnex, same as mine, so, if the sencor check works for you, will work for me as well.

Btw, thanks for the "Disable in lockscreen" :good:, and hope the "very high" precision won't cosume extra battery... wouldn't be better to let the user select the preferred time on the "disable if no movements are detected" option (for e.g.: 1 minute, 2 minutes, etc...)?

Thx!
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
The app saves last X values and does an average of them, it's not a real interpolation but the goal is the same, make values mode accurate in a short period of time. The higher, the more accurate, the less responsive.

Every level of precision consume the same battery.

I will consider this for a next version.

This is a for sure purchase for me. Being a developer, I tend to hold my tablet on my lap while I'm in TDD mode and there's nothing worse in the world than the device screen turning off as soon as i launch the app for testing.

I have never even thought of searching for an app like this and probably never would have if i hadn't found it posted here.

After testing it numerous time, find "disable after 40s..."still not working well for me. It still randomly turn off the screen while browsing but not as frequent as before. I had set the Accuracy to very high (maybe not high enough?)

Disable in Lockscreen is working great.

Yes there's another level of accuracy which should be called "very very high" but actually it's raw very inaccurate data. If I implemented this, even if you didn't move the phone at all, it would detect movement. Eg. 90, 91,93,91,93,92... So it would be totally unacceptable. Maybe I should check other axis looking for movement. I think this would help.

Range?

Hi,

I am willing to use Keep Screen ON to keep my Galaxy S2 screen when I am using it together with my laptop.

When I use my Galaxy S2 with my laptop, I always put it in portrait mode with the top of the phone on the laptop, and back on the table. This way the Galaxy S2 is not lying flat but with a angle (the top of the phone is 2,5cm higher than the bottom of the phone).

I want my smartphone screen to stay on when in this position, because it is when I use my smartphone as dictionary.

Unfortunately Keep Screen ON is not able to keep my smartphone screen on. The reason is that the smartphone still considers itself flat !

Here are my range settings: Min=0° , Max=180° , Current Min=15° , Current Max=179°

I have put 179°, so Keep Screen ON should keep my screen on.

What can I do to fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] kobik77:
I just noticed this bug too.

Keep screen on doesn't take the screen orientation into account although it should.

Just hold the test mode in portrait and see that it indicates the phone is flat.

[Android Apps and Games] chris247:
Can I ask you a question: When do you have this range (Current Min=15° , Current Max=179°), how high is the top of your phone compared to the bottom of your phone so that the test puppet is green (and not gray) ?

I think it is not a bug, but a functionality problem, as on my Galaxy S2, the top of the phone needs to be 3,5cm higher that the bottom of the phone (that's way too much!, 2cm should trigger the green puppet !)
[Android Apps and Games] DDeleted:
It strongly depends on accuracy. The higher, the easier to get a green puppet soon.

With my GN and that settings I only need to move it on for 0.5cm.
[Android Apps and Games] Columbo4Life:
Still not working when I enable the proximity feature. In addition your screen off app is not working at all anymore. Didn't install anything new and proximity sensor is working perfectly during phone calls.
[Android Apps and Games] chris247:
When the phone is staying steadly with the top of the phone at 2cm, and the puppet grey.
