Keep Screen On During Charging

[jayinla#AC]

Hi, does anyone know if there is a setting to keep the screen from shutting off while charging? The Motorola Droid had this setting but can't find it anywhere for the Incredible.

if you have an outlook email profile, the feature is disabled.

I'm looking for a hack/utility that'll keep the screen on when charging.
I've found a few that will do it manually, but I'd rather the screen always turned off when off the charger.

Does anyone know of a setting or hack that you can switch the display on until you turn it off when only on battery?

maybe a widget out there?
but your battery will drain faster than ever.

if you have an outlook email profile, the feature is disabled.

If you mean an Outlook email profile that's configured for an Exchange server, that may be a security setting by the mail admin.

If you're using a local Outlook profile to push your (non-Exchange) mail to your device, then that may be the case. I haven't had the need to play with that setup.

@exmeaguy: To echo Tony, that would kill your battery faster than pretty much anything else you could do. Why would you need to keep your screen on like that? Most apps that need the screen on (video playback for example), already keep the screen active while they are running.
