About this app

Wake Lock gives you access to Android's Power- and WifiManager.
You can use it on any Android phone or tablet.

Examples of what it can do for you:
• Force the PowerManager to keep the screen on
• Have the CPU still running in standby mode
• Ensure the Wifi connection keeps running at full performance
• Keep the screen on in full brightness or dimmed mode during movies
• Override power saving measures if they are causing issues

This is the modernized version of my app "WakeLock - PowerManager".

What the permissions are used for:
• WAKE_LOCK, to obviously be allowed to acquire wakelocks.
• RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED, to start the app after device reboots.
• READ_PHONE_STATE, to act on start/ending calls, allowing the app to acquire a lock just for the duration of the call.
• INTERNET, for automatic crash tracking. There is an option to disable this, but why would you 🙁?

Fixed my Note 4 issues - so really happy about that. Only comment is that the CPU lock pauses occasionally for no reason I can discern. I have disabled power optimisation but still happens. Not a big deal to switch it back on again. Saved my phone - thanks darken. Update. CPU lock pauses now seem to have gone away. All is very good and I for one am very happy.

If you can narrow the cause down mail me some details and I'll look into it.

Compared with the original app, this one doesn't seem to work, at least it makes no significant effect. For example, with "wifi high performance" and "processor" locks held (and battery optimization for this app is off), I tried connecting to my phone via SSH (rooted, with SSH server running) when screen is off, it took multiple seconds to respond to each key press, it's nearly the same as without the app. While the original one can make the latency some shorter.

This app gets the job done. I am using it on my Samsung Galaxy S5 and it solved my CPU issue. My S5 octa core now runs normal and remains on standby. I have no other issues related to the good use of your app. Highly recommended! Much appreciated indeed. Thanking you kindly. I also have another S5 phone (snapdragon cpu setup which is stable and has not as yet given me any cpu issues) Your application is a masterpiece!
