Keep screen on when connected to power ? - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Is there any app or tweak which can leave the screen on when the phone is being powered / charged ?
If I connect the phone in my car and just want to read the odd bits while driving, the screen keeps going off.

Hi,
have you ever tried the app "No Screen Off" from the market?

Not bad but would prefer something which works automatically based on whether it's connected to a charger or not

I'm not too sure exactly what you mean, but check

Make sure never turn off is NOT selected.

Are you using stock charger, and is it same through ac and usb?
Weird, but I feel it's something simple.

Excellent, don't know why I forgot about that one. Maybe it's the jetlag and no sleep for nearly 2 days. Glad it's sorted.
Edit: knew it was something simple.

[Q] How to turn off car mode

Hello, please i need help how to remove the car mode because its enabling all the time automaticly, i deleted carmode apk from the sys but it still showing up...(u can see it in status bar)
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Launch the car mode app and hit exit car mode. Its one of the big buttons. It should not be starting itself automatically... what rom are you using?
I know but i deleted that apk and it still showing off on status bar and when i click on it i get to home screen because of missing apk. But i got it, settings/locations and untick first option....i think that was a problem.

Check your USB port. It could just be dirt shorting the contacts.

What does that have to do with anything?

The usb port is very sensitive to voltage change. And a piece of dirt can trigger the car mode because it thinks the car charger is plugged in.

How to turn off screen without sleep on

I am wondering if I turn off my screen is there any way to prevent it from going to sleep if I mod htc v? I am using my htc one as a dedicated webcam and is using an app called ip webcam. It does have features that can prevent it from going to sleep but it lags whe. The screen is off.
Plug it in and have the dev settings to never turn off screen while plugged in. And turn brightness way down. Hope this helped

Already done that but when screen is turned off the processor is slowed down therefore the video is slowed down.
Use Screen Standby

Make the screen turn off when charging AUTOMATICALLY?

I don't like how the screen stays on while charging, I know theater mode can turn it off but I have to get into theater mode every night and I know there is a trick with ambient display from the app but this also takes time. Is there a way to just have the watch turn off the screen ALWAYS when charging without my asking it to?

Get an app called slumber. It does what you're looking for.

Actually slumber didn't work very well for me buy I ended up finding a thing online saying to go into developer options and change the setting, THAT worked wonders

I confirm that setting it "backwards" from what you expect does what you want. Someone's boolean logic was off when they programmed that setting.

This worked for me too. Setting is reversed.
Once on charge, I get the charging screen for about 15 seconds then it turns off and stays off! Perfect!
i can confirm that the setting is reversed
however, this feature isn't all that reliable (the screen doesn't always turn off)

You gotta dock with the screen on. 90% off the time it works every time
