Help or Guidance: Display off but...

[Max_box]

I'd like to be able to turn my screen off and still be able to use the ShareWifi. I use it in my car to share with my Ipod touch to listen to SiriusXm thru the internet. But I can't turn off the screen without it killing the signal. I've tried the "psShutXP Power Key" but it still kills the signal. I'm running 6.5WM if that helps. This thing heats up like crazy when I have it on and I'm sure it's not good for it. I hope by turning off the display it'll keep that from happening. Thanks!

This may or may not be similar, but I know that when I'm listening to music in TCPMP and I tap the power button, it doesn't turn the screen off like it does in WMPM, it kills the whole thing. The fix for this is to go into psShutXP (that you said you had), and pressing "display off".

Try the ScreenOff utility. It can be found on the OP of my closed ROM thread.
