Phone would not get past network carrier screen before getting hot by on/off button and switching off needing a reboot. Would sometimes get further but then either freeze or shut off completely. Managed to get phone working long enough to download this app. Issue resolved immediately. ..

Used to love this app, but after the latest update to my Samsung Galaxy a7 2018 (android 10) it no longer works.

Had a reboot problem with my 2 phones, Lg G4 and Galaxy Note 4.. Now since i installed it, they don't reboot anymore but gets hot still..

My phone was acting weird. It was freezing all the time and restarting itself often. I tried to factory restart, I tried to delete the cache partition and I tried bunch of tricks to solve the problem. None of them worked. Then I saw someone recomending this app. At first, I was skeptical and as far as my understanding goes this app should even make it worse by using some of the cpu all the time. However, somehow this app makes it work and solved my freezing and rebooting problems. Thank you :)

Literally just download it, of course it crashed 3 times while trying to download, so i plugged the charger in even, tho the batt was at 50%, crashed one more time on the charger then finally stayed on long enough to download. I selected "partial" and now im off charger at 41% charge and NO CRASHING! It was literally crashing every 2 minutes before i googled this fix! i was actually shopping for a new phone yesterday! Love the removable batt on Note 4!

I have no idea what this app is doing but it works. It prevents my Galaxy Note 4 phone from freezing and from the “could not do normal boot, mmc_read failed” error. That being said, most Note 4 users probably have a spare battery, and the process of switching battery still have some freezing issues. However, I found a get around solution by removing the battery, wait 5 minutes, put the recharged battery in, and wait another 5 minutes before power the phone on. Thanks for saving my Note 4. Oh, and don't just thank the app developer, send him/her a well deserved donation.

About this app

Wake Lock gives you control over the Android Power- and WifiManager.
For example, you can force the PowerManager to keep the screen on or have the CPU still running in standby mode or make sure the Wifi connection keeps running at full performance.

You can use it on any android phone or tablet.
Use it to keep the screen on in full brightness or dimmed mode during movies or slideshows.
To make sure the CPU is still running in the background doing your tasks when you press the standby button.

There is a "Donate Version" available if you wish to support my work.

What are the permissions used for:
* WAKE_LOCK, to obviously be allowed to aquire wakelocks.
* RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED, to start the app after device reboot.
* READ_PHONE_STATE, to be able to act on start/ending calls, allowing the app to aquire a lock just for the duration of the call.

New features

v2.5-f
