Android Question No wake

[bernardR]

Hello,

I'm looking to make a small application that does just this:
prevent the screen from going to sleep while it is in the background and another application is running.
Is it possible ?
I tried with keepAlive without success.

Thanks a lot

Not possible. You can prevent the CPU from sleeping with a partial lock.

You should be able to do it with OverlayWindow: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/probundle.58754/

It has a KeepScreenOn option, though I haven't tested it on newer android versions.
