Where is the "phone stays on when plugged in" button?

I know I'm new but for the life of me I can't find where the option is to keep my screen on while my phone is charging! I found it on CM6 but no luck on CM7. Any body know?
Thanks!

[Q] Battery lag

Hey guys, so I'm an owner of a new MT4G, perm rooted, running Ice Glacier 1.1.6 with Smart Ass kernel. Everything's good but I've notice that my battery life stays at 100% for a long time, like maybe till noon and then starts dropping really fast and levels off to what looks like the current level. Have tried checking with Battery graph, but it didn't really help. Any ideas?

I saw the same on the CM7 build 34. You might want to check out a CM7 nightly 2 or later build.

I'm getting the same thing in Iced Glacier 1.1.6

Try whiping your battery stats from recovery.

That and also calibrate your battery for better results.

1) I don't know about this so...
2) You're not alone,all newer videos can't be played in HQ in the YT app...Try the browser version,some videos might play in HQ there
3)Only way I know of is to turn off Data or Wifi

Yeah I'm tryingti block ads like that but I heard that you can change smthg in the hosts file and it will stop the ads.
Anyway thanks.
maybe somebody knows the solution 'bout the battery&youtube?

drain your battery completely, let your phone switch off on its own. Reboot into recovery (dont plug in your charger yet, and dont worry - it still has some juice left) and wipe battery stats. Now boot up again, still not plugging in, and as soon as it stabilizes it should power off on its own. This time you will not have enough juice to boot up again. NOW plug in your charger, and after a couple of minutes, unplug and boot by holding power button+trackball (CWM recovery bug) and plug it in again. Dont use it till its fully charged. See if this helps at all.

Yeah I found your post yesterday 8am it was unplluged (music for about a hour, internet all the time, sms) and now its 10:35pm and I have left 27%. Better than 0

I read a thread. It is about battery problem with adw. Adw claims that the launcher will dry your battery. But I think the problem is already fixed.

Phone keeps switching off as soon as I turn 3g on!

Hi all,
I've been having a problem with my HTC Desire Z for some time now, but have delayed posing here in the hope of it sorting itself out!
My problem is this; I take my phone off charge before work, at 19.45, nothing is draining the battery other than the phone being on, 3g is off, WiFi off, GPS, and Bluetooth all off! I check my phone at midnight, and 18% battery gone! I go on my break at 1 am and turn my 3g on to check my emails etc, and within 5 minutes my phone turns itself off! When I turn it back on it says 2% battery life left! I'm not up on phones and stuff but I know that 5 minutes of 3g usage doesn't drain a battery from 80% to 2%! I've used the 3g for longer than that without a problem before!
Android Version 2.3.3
HTC Sense Version 2.1
Hope somebody can help,

My first suggestion as usual. Try a factory reset

Also maybe look into flashing a new radio.

Hey guys,
Ok so I've done my factory reset, but still it keeps dying after about 10 minutes! It's just gone from fully charged to 85% in 10 mins and then crashed out! When I restarted it, it said connect your charger! I'm going to call the company I got the phone from, see if they can fix it, if not HTC, and if all else fails ill buy a used iPhone from ebay!

HTC should take care of it for you

I've swapped the battery back to my original HTC one, was using a replacement higher capacity one not made by HTC! So far it seems to be doing the trick, I've had about 5 hours of life, on constant 3g and its on 75%! Fingers crossed it keeps it up!
Thanks for the quick replies!

Actully I suggest you to change the battery, I think is that the problem

Thanks for the help all, I don't know what did it, be it the factory reset or battery change but I'm now getting well over 20 hours with constant 3g or WiFi on and background data on!

did you buy the battery off ebay? (when you had problem)

also maybe you can try battery stats reset, maybe the battery isn't actually fully charging even though it says it is. You could flash a new radio too, but if you have the stock one I don't see why it would cause problems.

[Q] Need help with this.

I am editing my answer because at first I wasn't able to understand exactly what you were asking.but after re-reading a couple of times I am now thinking with the shutdowns and unable to connect your phone to the computer as you stated going in and out ,I am thinking that you might have a similiar problem that i had,and that was somehow i had a broken usb port and it was causing the pins to short together in the usb port and not sure of the pinout but I could see that causing it to shutdown or causing issues connecting .just a theory !!but it is worth taking a look into your usb port on your phone and see if there is something like lint or a piece of plastic cracked in there!again just a theory!!
