Detecting when device screen has powered down or gone to lock screen

Does anyone know how to detect when a device's screen has powered down or gone to the lock screen?

Hi Jezra, You can check Tizen Device API: Power in tizen documentation https://developer.tizen.org/documentation/dev-guide. You can try using void request(PowerStateRequest request, optional SuccessCallback? successCallback, optional ErrorCallback? errorCallback, optional PowerStateChangeCallback? listener);

I've already checked the Power API. The 'request' method makes a request to set the brightness of the screen, and part of that method is an optional callback for handing the powerstate change. However, I don't want to make a request to change/set the powerstate, I just want to add a listener to let my application know when the state has changed.

couldn't find the Power API on Tizen 2.4/3.0 for Web TV Applications, plus do we have any listeners that detect when Device/TV is powered ON or OFF?

Seems Power API is available for Mobile and Wearable only. You may try Visibility Change (as mentioned on this post) to check out if it performs your desired action.
