Android Question Turning on the screen from a service

[ecastelli201]

Hi,
may I turn on the screen during telephone sleep from a running service, like an incoming call?
I was able to play a sound, speak with TTS, write to SD but always with blank screen.
Thank you and best regards

You should call PhoneWakeState.KeepAlive. It should turn on the screen.
