jailbreak Looking for a way to turn off my 3GS screen

[Shadrack]

Hi!

I've JB'd my iPhone 3GS and installed AirServer to allow for some AirPlay audio streaming to my home entertainment center. It works great, but I have a problem. AirServer only works with the app running and the iPhone on. It stops working if I "lock" the phone and turn off the screen.

I tried to install Backgrounder thinking if I put AirServer in the background, then maybe I can turn off the screen. Backgrounder just doesn't work apparently on 5.0.1 and crashes the springboard if it is enabled.

Does anyone know of a way to turn off the screen on my 3GS while keeping AirServer running? I would like it if I could keep AirServer running all the time, but I do not want the screen on the 3GS on all the time as I think this may shorten the life of the screen.

Thanks for your input.

The developer behind Backgrounder stated that he wasen't going to update the app once iOS 5 was released due to its native multitasking.

ScreenDimmer v1.70 will achieve what you would like, it's available on Cydia via the BigBoss repo:
