Default display off while charging

Sorry if this is redundant but is there a patch to turn the display off while it's charging on the touchstone, so that it doesn't show the time and the lock? It's so bright at night that it bothers me as I charge it right next to my bed. Sorry if there is one and I just haven't found it, and any help is greatly appreciated!

There is an app called "quick system tasks" I think that allows this. The name might be wrong.

I use Quick System Tasks and Mode Switcher to turn off the screen when on the touchstone.

ditto with Mode Switcher! Not only can it turn off the screen, it can do a bazillion things more. Kudos to the developer, sconix, on this app. Check the 'homebrew apps' forum and study up on it.

use the first download link it takes you to, the one on preware acts funny but this one works fine. Remember to uninstall during update.
