I am running an app that uses WebSocket to connect to a server.
If the user closes the app on the Tablet, the server side receives the Disconnect.
However, if the app is running on the Tablet and the user switches the Tablet Off using the Power Switch, the server side does not receive the Disconnect.
I was thinking of using the following code, which works with a "soft" shutdown button in the app.
When the user clicks the Power Switch, I sense the PE_ScreenOff:
However, my problem is that once the screen is off, the user cannot see the MsgBox.
How can I keep the screen alive once the user has pressed the Power Switch?
