Hello all,
Instructions can be found inside the readme.txt in the full zip file download. I will post it here for your convenience. You can always contact [email protected] if you have any problems with AutoStandby.
-ZAutoStandby 1.3.1
---------------
Once installed, AutoStandby will attempt to check and autoconfigure various required permissions needed for operation. These are Idle Timer, Phone, and Keystroke Injection. Please accept any prompts for these permissions for correct functionality. If you do not receive a prompt asking for these permissions or AutoStandby does not appear to be functioning correctly, follow these steps:
1. Goto Options > Advanced Options > Applications
2. If you do not see "AutoStandby" listed here here, press the Menu key and select "Modules"
3. Select "AutoStandby" and press the Menu key and select "Edit Permissions"
4. Under Connections, make sure "Phone" is set to ALLOW
5. Under Interactions, make sure "Keystroke Injection" and "Security Timer Reset" are set to ALLOW
6. Under Options > Auto Standby, make sure you have AutoStandby enabled
7. Reboot the device with a battery pull, if necessary
Options
*Enable AutoStandby - This enables or disables the application altogether
*Disable if music player running - This will prevent AutoStandby from taking affect if one of the following players are currently running: RIM, MiuTunes, xPlayer, and BerryTunes
*Disable if connected to PC - This will prevent AutoStandby from taking affect if connected via USB to a computer.
*Seconds to wait after screen blanks - This is the amount of time AutoStandby will wait after the blacklight turns off to take affect. For example, if your backlight timeout is set to 30 seconds, and you set this delay to 30 seconds, it will take 60 seconds of idle time before AutoStandby becomes active. If you press any key during this delay, the timer will reset and the screen will turn back on.07-12-08 07:32 PM - I purchased this last night and it works as advertised. I'm disapointed that the maximum delay is only 60 seconds, and there's no icon to toggle it on and off. I'm guessing that the app access OS calls or something which is why it shows up in options and advanced options. Kind of analagous to an old Palm OS 4 hack.
Perhaps a future version can add this functionallity.
08-07-08 11:11 AM - 60 seconds didn't sound right. I just checked and I have 90 seconds, but I agree, that seems too short. I think though, that the delay is after the screen dims, which means that it's at most 120+90 seconds until standby mode.I purchased this last night and it works as advertised.

What do you mean by it being in advanced options? I noticed that AutoStandby appeared in options (which should have been documented somehow - I kept assuming that something went wrong with my install). But, I didn't see anything in the Advanced options.09-08-08 06:51 PM - to toggle on and off u just gotta hit the mute button 3 timesI purchased this last night and it works as advertised.
