Is there a way to configure the S3 to not time out the screen and lock the phone when it is on the charger? Maybe there's an app that will add that feature?

Developer options are: USB Debugging, Allow mock locations, Desktop backup password, Strict mode, Show pointer location, Show touches, Show screen updates, Show CPU usage, Force GPU rendering, Window animation scale, Transition animation scale, Do not keep activities, Limit background processes, and Show all ANRs.
No "Stay Awake" anywhere in these options.
It looks like there are some apps that will do this. One of them even seems to do the sane thing, which is don't time out when connected to the charger, but time out normally otherwise. I'll probably do that.

Thanks! Caffeine "just works", and makes the phone do exactly what I want.

app called tasker.
does everything. If tasker was any smarter, it would make money for you.
