Possible Duplicate: Overriding the power button in Android Is there any possible way I can stop the screen being locked when the power button is pressed.

Solution 1:

You can't stop screen to get lock(short click), But you can get the event of long keypress of Power button

@OverridepublicbooleandispatchKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) {
    if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_POWER) {
        //dostuffreturntrue;
    }

    returnsuper.dispatchKeyEvent(event);
}

try this as per your Requirement,

KeyguardManager keyguardManager;
    KeyguardLock lock;


    publicvoidDisable_AutoLock() 
    {   

        getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);

        keyguardManager = (KeyguardManager) getSystemService(Activity.KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
        lock = keyguardManager.newKeyguardLock(KEYGUARD_SERVICE);        
        lock.disableKeyguard();

    }

    publicvoidEnable_AutoLock() 
    {
        lock.reenableKeyguard();

    }
