Hi.

I've noticed that while my app is running and after screen lock is 
activated (pressing power button or letting timeout to lock the device), 
all activity is stopped in the application i.e. writes to my log file 
stops, no more network communication etc. When the screen lock is 
deactivated, my app becomes alive again. How do I disable this? My app 
needs to talk to my server all the time using wifi or cellular 3G, even 
when the screen lock is active. Is there some simple way to configure 
powerd not to go into this kind of deep sleep?

Cheers,
 - Ari
