wake up device

[Dirk A]

Hi ,
I'm receiving tcp commands in a service. When my phone goes to sleep , I'm still receiving the commands but I try to wake up my activity with

 If IsPaused(Main) Then StartActivity(Main)

with no result.
How do I wake up the phone ?

Note that when the device really goes to sleep it will turn off the wifi connection.

See PhoneWakeState from Phone library.
And also these results:
Basic4android Search: turn on screen

I just want to turn on the screen if the user has turned it off
to turn on the screen I use

Dim p As PhoneWakeState
p.KeepAlive(True)

but nothing happens

Are you sure that the code is executed?

 

[Dirk A]

I added p.ReleaseKeepAlive before p.KeepAlive(True) , now it works but it always shows the "lock screen" and I have to unlock manually . Can you unlock programmatically ?
