iPhone keeps going into dim/sleep mode even with the proper API calls.

Question

I call:

[[ UIApplication sharedApplication ] setIdleTimerDisabled: YES ]

on the applicationDidFinishLaunching event.. I set a breakpoint on it, which fires so I know it's getting called.. I've also called this function in other places as well.. Basically, a 3G iPhone will still go into sleep mode, but my 3GS won't. Has anyone seen this behavior before? Both are running the latest OS versions.

Thanks for reading!

Answer 1

Rebooting the 3G iPhone will fix the issue. I am not sure if Apple is working on a fix for this currently.
