    Is there anyway to make it so that autodim will not dim my screen while I'm in certain applications ... like google maps. It is very annoying when my wife is trying to give me directions using google maps while I am driving and the screen keeps autodiming and then the display turns off.

    There has to be a option or setting to make so that the display doesn't turn off while I'm in certain apps without having to continuing to press buttons.

    HELP?

    There is an option in BB Maps you can use that keeps the screen lit (only while using BB Maps) until the battery has reached 75%, 50%, 25% capacity. Very nice when using the GPS. I don't think Googla Maps has the same otion, though.
