who knows how the function works, especialy when switching off the display?

I have set a

setTimeout(“callback”,30*60*1000).   // 30 Minutes

When the phones display is off the timer is not fired.

How can i get a more reliable solution?

The work is a little bit hard, editing directly on the phone.

at the moment i send the script from a PC to the phone.

It is possible to set timers using setTimeout. Pay special attention to clear these timers when needed, LL won’t do this for you. If you don’t clear timers, you may severly increase CPU use and battery consumption.

I have created a timer with setTimeout for 5 Minutes.

When i switched off the display the timer is not executed in deep sleep mode. I expected that the CPU would have been awoken after the specified time to execute some things and sleep after that.

is that right?

When the display is switched on again the timer seemd to be executed after a time.

Can someone explain whats going on behind the curtains?

the Code:

LL.bindClass(“android.provider.Settings”);

var myItem = LL.getEvent().getItem();

var myId   = myItem.getId();

function setTimeout15Seconds() {

   Settings.System.putInt(LL.getContext().getContentResolver(),Settings.System.SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT,15*1000);

   Android.makeNewToast(“setting timeout to 15 sec”,true).show();

   myItem.setTag(“timeout”, 0);

}    

function setTimeout5Minutes() {

  var timeout = myItem.getTag(“timeout”)||0;

  if (timeout == 0) {

    Settings.System.putInt(LL.getContext().getContentResolver(),Settings.System.SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT,5*60*1000);

    myItem.setTag(“timeout”, setTimeout(setTimeout15Seconds, 5*60*1000));

    Android.makeNewToast(“setting timeout to 5 min”,true).show();

  }  

}

setTimeout5Minutes();

            Settings.System.SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT, time);”

how should be done in LL
