Wakeup the device opening the screen

[brunino1967]

Hi,
actually I'm searching a method to activate (wake-up) my htc Universal simply opening the screen. Usually it goes off after some minutes and when I re-open the screen I need to push the power button... I would like it goes on simply opening the screen.

Now I use a trick: I disabled in "Energy" (Power) the item "shutdown after X minutes". So my device is always on and the scrren goes off simply closing it. This method is ok because when I re-open the screen again, the entire device is immediatly ready! But there is a problem: doing it the device is always ON so it spend battery a little bit more than usual!

I know there is a magnetic switch controlling the opening screen; I wonder if someone has found how to use it to control power up of the entire device (like the power button does)... It will be very interesting and usefull if the Universal goes ON immediatly simply opening the screen! There must be a method to associate the screen magnetic switch with the Power-ON function (like power pushbutton does).

What do you think about?

Thank you

I have been thinking about it myself for a few days now.... having upgraded from the Nokia9500, it would be great if the device detected that it is open and turns itself on!

Just came accross this while searching.

Would be very useful if someone found a "patch" for this.

Could be as simple as a key in the registry.

I'll check
