Android Question Screen auto-off vs app minimise

[Arf]

I've made this app, its mostly service driven, so when the screen does its auto-off powersave, the app keeps running. This is what I want, but the nexus tab has got a button in between the BACK and RECENT APPS buttons, that makes my app minimise but doesn't kill it.
When this button is pressed I want to kill the process, so really the only time the app keeps running when it's not foregrounded, is when the display turns off to save power.

Is there any way I can catch the press of this button in the Activity_Pause function and deal with it?

Thanks

You can handle the ScreenOff event with a PhoneEvents object. Run some tests to see when does it fire exactly. Probably shortly after Activity_Pause is raised.

This means that you can use a timer, started after Activity_Pause, to decide whether you need to kill the process or not.
