But if you were watching a vid longer then 2 min, or went to potty while reading a post here you would shut off with no actual activitity. Unless you tapped into the youtube app that shows activity and keeps phone awake while watching. The concept is a great idea, but you have to think of a way of keeping it going while phone is sleeping while it thinks phone is awake unless you set sceen off timer longer than the timeout for the app being made. Either way it would keep device awake until you pressed power button or 4g was not avail.
