Question

I’m trying to develop a very simple app that displays like a slideshow of images which Im sure ill be able to figure out (if anyone has any advice would be much appreciated) but what im wondering is there any way I can stop the device from going to sleep if its left cycling through these images?

Answer 1

using

     getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);

will make the screen always on which will disable the lock. Remove it by using

     getWindow().clearFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);
