You could change it in the settings database using Ex: to change it to one minute sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/ settings.db "INSERT INTO system VALUES (null,'screen_off_timeout','600000');"
or sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/ settings.db "update system set value='600000' where name='screen_off_timeout';" But I find it kind of bad to be doing it this way (I can't think of any particular reason, but it just seems hacky). Since the settings provider exposes SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT , I would feel much better using that. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.System.html#SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT On Aug 24, 6:17 pm, Shanth Murthy <shanth.murth...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks, > -Shanth -- unsubscribe: android-porting+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting
