Screen Timeout

Has anyone figured out a way to keep the screen on when maps is on? I know Sprint Nav will stay on, but I would like to keep maps on without the screen timing out. You would think Google would have a feature that when plugged in would allow certain apps to keep the screen on.

I know it sounds like I'm plugging the hell out of it lately (it has so many features), but widgetsoid had a toggle to keep screen on

Turn off the lights on the capacitive buttons?

Is this a possibility? They drive me nuts at night because they are constantly on.... a way to adjust their time out time would be incredible. Sadly, I don't think suck a thing exists.

Well, stop me if I'm wrong, but doesn't "LEDs Hack" do this? It's a free app on the market. I don't know as I haven't needed to try with this.

If you're on CM, you can adjust their brightness level based on ambient light under back light settings (separate from keyboard light and screen)

What they mean is they want to be able to open it even in fullscreen apps, games etc. The way apple does it is you swipe down from the top once a small tab then appears and then you pull that tab down and the notification dropdown appears.

Can we dim the menu and back keys?

Hey guys I recently bought the Lux Auto Brightness app which dims your display according to your environment. I would like to dim my hardware keys because when I'm in a pitch black room the keys are still bright......Any ideas would be awesome. Thanks

Up to my knowledge you can only shorten the duration of the back lit keys or turn them off completely. Settings>Display>Touch key light duration. I have my keys to not lit up at all and i like it.

i dont see that option in display

Volume slider popup location question

Hello
I have a simple question.
I might be wrong, but im writing this because i dont think i noticed it before.
In the stock video player app, when you press the volume keys while playing a video, where on the screen does the volume slider pop up show up?
For me, it shows up in the very bottom of the screen in the middle. In both horizontal and vertical views.
Is this normal? Because i could sware remembering it being in the top-middle portion of the screen...
Can anyone go and check in the stock video player and see where your slider pops up?
Thx in advance..
