Auto lock

Can auto screen lock be disabled?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

I use a (paid) app called Battery Indicator Pro which has the ability to disable your lock screen. Works quite well. It doesn't permanently disable it as if you restart your phone the lock screen will show.
The main function of the app puts your battery status in the notifications window and allows you to view what has been eating away at your battery.
I hope that's what you meant by "auto screen lock"

Yeah, sounds right. I find it a pain trying to drive and unlock at the same time, esp if you wanna make a call or skip tracks on music player

Settings>>Applications>>Development>>Stay Awake.

Using the method I mentioned above, just note that the screen will still turn off, but when you hit home or power it will go right back to whatever you were doing.

You can set your screen to never time out in the settings.

try using Extended Controls or SwitchPro widgets to skip ahead some extra steps in making your phone always awake.

Tried the dont turn screen off while charging and it works!

[Q] Battery status app

Ok, I give up.
This is probably a nooby question, but I can't find the answer anywhere.
I have seen a battery usage screen on my Fascinate twice. It displays what device or program is using the most power. I can find how to get to that screen again.
It's probably right in front of me.
I have searched everywhere but I'm missing something.

Menu button from home screen, settings, about phone, battery use.

That is so intuitive.
NOT.
Thanks everyone.
Now to find out why this dang thing blocks me from downloading applications.
Much to learn.

Go to menu-settings-applications and check the box on top by "allow installation of non-market apps" then it should work.

I had already done that. The browser just refuses to download it.

Use astro. In the settings check the 'enable browser downloader' option.

From your homescreen, do Menu-> Settings -> Accessibility. The option should be there.

[Q] I Found this HIDDEN Setting in Note 3 K.K

Dose Any one what this "Setting" do
it was Hidden and i Founded using " Quick Shortcut Maker"
Thanks

Are you using stock firmware?
Can show show the screenshot in the 'Quick Shortcut Maker' app?

Yeah, i found this a couple of months ago. Never bothered about it. The power saving mode is the same as the one in the phone settings, the "Auto Power Off" will turn off the power saving mode after the given time you set it.
"Fast Power On" I don't know what that is, it was ticked by default.
I know I didn't help, but if nothing else, I increased my post count.

I don't think the option of "Auto Power Off" turne the Power Saving Mode off after the given time
But I think it turne off the device "Shutdown the Mobile" After 1Houer ( the time I set )
And I think the screen must be off during this Houer
Many Thanks to All

Thanks, I will add it to my 'Missing Android Shortcuts' app.

Hello,
Now you can get all of these HIDDEN settings in this app: Shortcut Master.
Just go to menu --> Search, enter 'powersaving' to search.

Turn auto call off?

The auto call feature where you hold the phone up to your ear and say who you want to call, can this be turned off? I know you can disable all gestures in the settings menu. Also, the auto call feature in that gesture menu is different. It only applies to calling the contact displayed on the screen, like a text message or viewing a contact.

Disable the "Auto Call" toggle under "My Voice"in settings, I believe.
