Perhaps Solution for BT suspend in WM 2005

[ekapco]

I am trying screenguard at the moment to see if this works.

With this you can lock your buttons and blackout your screen while keeping the device active therefore the BT stays on.
Like with normal mobile phones.

I think this could be a solution until a real OS solution is found.

Hope this helps.

But even if you have charged the phone at night, won't this eat the battery for lunch, if not for breakfast?

No, not a solution.

Battery died within 8 hours.
So still no solution.

I think MortSaver is a beter solution.

MortSaver is a combination of screensaver, keylock, and a "stay off!" function.

Screensaver: The display's turned off, but the PPC keeps running (e.g. for audio players). In spite to other tools, MortSaver turns off the dispay again if it's been switched on by e.g. an alert or the on/off button.
Keylock: All buttons (except the one necessary for deactivation, of course) are locked, as far as it's possible to me. A few programs sadly use some undocumented tricks, which allows them to get the button presses even if they're assigned to MortSaver in the system, or set themselfes as topmost window, by which the direction pad keys will be sent to this window. Disabling MortSaver can be done either with one button or a sequence of two buttons.
"Stay off!": PocketPCs are often switched on by themselves or accidentally - by alerts (appointments, SMS, ...) or accidental button presses in your pocket. In those cases, MortSaver can turn off the device again after a selectable timespan (so you recognize MortSaver's active and the device alive).

After power on or system-caused disabling of the screensaver, MortSaver shows a countdown until the screen or device (depending on settings, also see instructions), the button(s) to deactivate it, the time, battery level, a user definable text (e.g. owner infos), and on Phone Edition devices also signal strength and hints about missed calls and SMS.

MortSaver is Freeware.
