The issue with that is that it requires special permissions my app doesn't have. I'm not really looking to put the device to sleep, I merely want to turn off the screen.
I found this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3018716/android-turn-off-screen-when-close-to-face so I guess I need a way to get a new wake lock with the value of PROXIMITY_SCREEN_OFF_WAKE_LOCK but that value isn't available in M4A. And the SpeakerProximity project is GPL'ed, and I don't suppose using java interop (which I'd like to avoid at this juncture) would be considered different from using the lib in a java project (so basically a nogo). > >gap: "Turning screen off, haven't tried in mono for android, but in java this works" > >powerService.goToSleep( SystemClock.uptimeMillis() + 1 ); -- View this message in context: http://mono-for-android.1047100.n5.nabble.com/Turning-display-on-and-off-tp5712611p5712616.html Sent from the Mono for Android mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Monodroid mailing list Monodroid@lists.ximian.com UNSUBSCRIBE INFORMATION: http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monodroid
