I tried it with Sprint Nav and TomTom, but those don't seem to do it.

Most of these applications force the phone not to "Sleep". I always run GPS on car power so I set my Backlight to not "Dim" on External Power. But if you leave that check box on the light will dim (to save power) but it won't go out.

I think there are some apps out there that can shut the screen off that folks use for playing music with the screen off. I believe that should work for GPS apps to.

The Device has to be on, but the screen doesn't really need to be.
