Default Can anyone please update this patch for 1.4.5?

I loved this patch but the developer (zanth) is no longer around and it does not work. Its a great patch that prevented auto dimming.
Thanks to anyone who can help!

Wouldn't that keep the back light on costantly - Maybe other devs believe that it wasn't a patch... that most people would want due to how our phones consume battery a lot.(IMO)

no, it only kept the screen on in you had an app in the foreground. I had the screen turn off after 15 secs if apps were in the background. It was a huge help and save battery life
I miss it.

looking at the file the other patches are writing to the same section so it is going to depend on what patches you have installed.

Try this one. I thought it didn't work at first but forgot it only prevents dimming when an app is in the foreground. It works great for me.

I am not sure shadavis. Mode switcher wrote to the area the patch was originally and I just moved it down. to an area that would probably not be affected by any patches. I am working on another area waiting for luna restart to see how it works.

I thought it was a problem with the patch I installed and my signal dropped uninstalled signal still dropped looked up Airrave had lost a connection. lol! This patch should install regardless of any other patch installed (fingers crossed)

All I hear is "Don't worry, you're still kinda a forum leader I guess... Oh yea, I have that nice shiny title below my name. Man, It's so cool and awesome."

I just moved the two lines xanthanloid put in the setup portion of the file down lower so people that dont have mode switcher installed could use it.
