screen off during call - can i change this?

Hello all.

I use my phone in the car a lot, currently with the headset supplied with phone until i get a different solution.

When i am on a longer call the phone is on the pasenger seat and i chat away. The screen goes off as usual after the time i have set, i think it is 1 minute.

When i have ended the call i would like the screen to come back on automatically or respond to a single screen press. I do not want to have to press the power button on top again to get the phone back on.

Is this possible?

When i am in the car i am powered on so maybe i can just set the timeout to 20 minutes?

Thanks

Jono
 
I found an app called No Lock (by BoD) which turns the screen lock off and on with a press. You could turn it off whenever you get in the car.

When the lock is disabled the screen will come back to life with a press of any of the 6 physical buttons.

I know it's not exactly what you're after but I hope it helps.

This app toggles between:

1: auto sleep (default screen behaviour)
2: no lock, but screen off
3: no lock, no screen off

Seems like exactly what you want?
