Turn off screen in call

**Gary.Lavin** · 11-09-2008, 02:08 AM

Anyone know how to turn off the screen without ending a call?

It doesn't already automatically do that? I think you're in your own boat. Perhaps set the screen timeout shorter.

I want to be able to answer the call and put the phone back in my pocket without waiting for the timeout and I don't want a short timeout......

I called myself, and answered and the screentimed out.

- Screen already timeout.
- Answered an incoming Phonecall.
- screen timeout in less than 10 seconds.

Did anyone actually provide an answer to this.
Short screen timeout is not an option for me.

No answer, but I did find a setting in a really odd place. Settings/Applications/Development lets you turn the screen time out off when on power (stay awake).
