[Q] Prevent WP7 sleep/standby while charging/on cradle - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Is there any way to prevent turning off HD2 while charging / on cradle?
I need it to see clock 24/7 while my device is charging.
Now if I connect device to the PC it goes standby (while on lock screen, when the time is displayed), even if "screen timeout" is set to never.
Thank you!

Screen Always on when charging

Anytime I have the K-Jam charging, the screen never goes dim, the backlight is always on. I have selected 5 min shut whether on internal or external power..?
What am I missing..?
Start->Settings->Power, then click the "Advanced" tab. ensure a checkmark appears in the setting for "On Battery Power" (e.g., Turn off device if not used for..").
It will shutdown when connected to a wall charger, but will never dim when connected to a computer via the USB.
Is this a known issue..?
its not a error, its how it should be, when your connected to computer, its not inactive, activesync is constantly running and watching what you are doing.
If anything, you should cancel your activesync process to disable this and also cancel the activesync on the device.
Alternatively, you can try just dimming the screen after inactivity.

My device randomly turns its screen on whilst charging

I've got a Universal with all the default ROMs and whatnot. I plug it into my PC overnight to charge. I have it set so that the backlight turns off after 5 minutes when connected to external power, and it normally does so. However, it seems like it turns itself on again at random points (it does turn itself off again). I cannot discern what it is that is causing it to turn on, the only relevant thing I have running is ActiveSync and it isn't busy syncing.
Has anyone got a clue why it might do this?
mine will switch on when it's downloading e-mails.
ActiveSync wakes the PDA up at regular intervals to see if it needs to sync, its something you have to live with.
in power settings, the default is to turn on while being charged
have alook at power management in settings

Weird Activesync Problem...

This happens when my jade is connected to pc via activesync...
Aftersome time, when there is no data transfer between pc and jade, it gets disconnected automatically
Jade keeps charging and the screen light remains dimmed... Is this normal
In the power settings (start/settings/advanced tab) there is an option for 'on external power'. Check the value for 'turn off device if not used for:' option.
Hi Thanks for reply..
But as i said before the phone doesnt go on standby, screen remains dimmed and the value set is 30 min....
There's something else :S

X1 Standby mode

Is anybody can explain to me , how the standby mode works in X1.
I just changed from an asus p535 where if i pushed the power button once the phone gone to sleep mode and the active sinc lost connection, the phone completly in sleep ...
Now with the x1 when i push the power button its not gone to sleep and the AS just keeps working, and because of this i worried about the battery life, it should work for longer time when its completly in sleep
How can i archieve the full sleep on X1?
I think it makes a difference if USB is connected or not. Power button works different with Headphones plugged in (Screen off) or not (Suspend).
When you sync your phone with your PC using the USB cable, the battery is charging as if it was through the wall charger
WM is set by default to "not turn off the phone if not used" when it used on external power so it never go to sleep mode
If you want your phone going to sleep mode when used on external power: go to settings -> system -> power. Then check "turn off the phone if not used for" under "on external power" and set the time it should wait before going to sleep mode
plus it's a myth that charing it often is bad for the batt so it don't matter if it's charging when you have it connected long periods of time

True that.

[Q] Why Power Up?

When I pull the charging cable out of the A500, it automatically turns the device on. I can't find any place to stop that nonsense from occurring. Any hints on how to stop this from happening?
It should only turn the screen on if the device is already on and only in sleep mode (it assumes you want to use it if it's sleeping, charging, and you pull the plug). If it's truly off, it should stay off.
