There is a "stay awake" option but only if the charger is plugged in. First, you have to enable "developer options". To do this go to /About device in setup and tap /Build number seven times. Then can turn on /Developer options/Stay awake.

Why don't you just enable smart stay?

Kaiser goes to today screen on resume from standby

If my Kaiser goes into standby, say on the mail screen, if I hit the power button or slide the slider to turn it back on, it goes back to the today screen.
Is there a way to stop this?
You probably have an application that does this, there are a lot offering this feature.
Gah,
I have kaisertweak, phweaver and HHC installed, could it be one of those?
Password
Are you password protecting your phone? If so, this can cause the Today screen to pop-up after you resume from standby, even if you are not prompted to enter a password.
nope, no password protect - I have WIMP, I *want* anyone who steals it to use it
May it's the setting 'Today timeout:' under Settings/Personal/Today/Items...
have the same problem with my touch. idea anyone? have the HHC installed, maybe it's an option of this program?
still have this problem - driving me crazy! plz help ...
bump old thread bcuz im having this issue now too...& this seems to have never been resolved.
it never used to happen, but i just got an rma w/ a a new rom 162 instead of 157 i was running on the old phone. so i'm assuming its a "feature" set in the new rom, but its annoying. also its frustrating bcuz i cant use that "camera workaround" where you cover the camera, hit the power button to sleep it, then resume...thus im back to stuck w/ a crap camera.
any thoughts/suggestions? thanks.

no, I have unchecked box of Today timeout, but still doesnt working.
When i resume Kaiser from standby (by press On/Off button) then always go to Today screen.
Probably need a soft reset for the shell to pick up the change in settings.

There is no solution?

Any other apps that stops the phone from sleeping during a call?

I tried "Shake Awake" but its pretty buggy. It sometimes doesn’t work during a call and other times it works when I am doing other things.
Anyone seen a better app that keeps the phone awake during a call?

Power Manager monitors in-call settings also? Must be a new feature.
Yep, the paid version has it. Edit the profile and you will see an option called "Stay Awake", and in there u can choose the screen awake during call but not forever, only from 10 secs to 10 mins"

[Q] apk to keep always active when plugged in?

Is there an apk that will keep gtab active so that it doesn't go into sleep mode as long as it is plugged in. I am using "Screen On" and it helps but is not perfect.

Don't need APK ... Built in...
Settings -> Applications -> Development -> Stay Awake.
Does the screen timout set to "never" not keep it from sleeping? I have never tried it as I just use the tab once every now and then. Or are you asking for an "active app" that the screen is off but the tab is not "sleeping" ie the cpu is still running??

Change WiFi Sleep Time

Is there an App that can change the WiFi sleep time from 15 minutes to say 10 seconds or whatever? Such an app existed before with RyanZa's app for his lagfix, but I haven't seen it since he disappeared.
10 seconds? Why not just have it turn off when the screen goes off?

Or you could go into Wifi Settings and hit Menu -> Advanced -> Wifi Sleep Policy. Or just download Spare Parts and change it.

The WiFi is still on for another 15 minutes, because that's what Android/Samsung has it set to. It doesn't matter what the sleep policy is.

In Spare Parts, there should be an option for "Wifi Sleep Policy".
Nope not in mine. My Spare Parts app came with FireFly. Maybe it needs to be updated or something...

Stop Screen from coming on when fully charged

Does anybody know a way to prevent the screen from coming on (to the lock screen, not the always on screen) when the phone is fully charged? I have my phone on a wireless charger on my desk all day and it keeps topping off the battery but every time it hits 100% the screen comes on. So it's constantly charging up, screen on, discharging a little, charging up, screen on, etc...

I tried so many things with my N7 and nothing worked. not on my N4 either. it'll take something like root or other things to accomplish. I gave up and just deal. N8 due here shortly.

There's an app called SnooZy Charger. It's a Canadian app in the Play Store but not available for us in the United States Play Store for some reason. I have the link to the dev's page though. Download the zip (non flash-able of course) and extract the APK. Save it to your phone, install it and open settings, change "Connection status" to have the screen turn off when you either plug in the phone, unplug the phone or both.
Visit the entire site here.
If you just want to download the zip (the apk link no longer works) click here.
Best I can do with no Xposed or root. Hope it helps.

Thanks for posting this - I downloaded it and it works well. I usually charge in my phone after I am bed - and it annoyed me when the screen would light up.

I fixed it! I'm using AutomateIt Pro and I have a rule for charging/not charging and part of the rule on each is lock screen on/off and screen dim low (still playing with the number) and then screen back to normal when removed. it may not be perfect, but I am so tired of Sprint turning on my screen when it's finished charging or at random times. since I keep it on a wireless charger when not using this handles it for me. hope you all find your particular solutions. best of luck.
This should be a phone setting. Particularly annoying how it will routinely turn the screen on. Why doesn't it do that when connected to a charging cable?

I'd thank you twice if I could! I'd forgotten all about tasker. I thought it was only a rooted phone type of app.

Tasker isn't for everyone. I tried to make it as easy as I could by going step by step.
I got it set up and had it enabled. Something buggy with the app since other things are also not working. I'll play with it later. Meanwhile AutomateIt is giving me what I need until root.

I turned it on and then I tested it multiple times. did a bit of troubleshooting, uninstall, reinstall, add the item back, etc. something is buggy with my app. and it's really different from the first time I tried it years ago. really straightforward now, but won't let me do any kind of customization, etc. and save it. later I'll go clear my cache and see if that does anything. since my needs are handled atm I'll deal another day.

Thank you! This was also driving me nuts! I ended up having to leave it on the Wireless Charger in the kitchen overnight because the spouse is a light sleeper and threatened to shove my phone where the sun doesn't shine if the screen comes on again at night
