    I can and will try. I downloaded an app on the google play store called Bluetooth keep awake. It’s purpose is to not allow your Bluetooth device to sleep. I’m not sure how much the author actually works on this program. It did not work for me or should I say the keyboard. I have another Bluetooth keyboard I’ll try it with. And I’ll see what else I can do and let you know.

    Hello, as far as I know it is just like any Bluetooth device, it eventually will sleep if being unused for a period of time. See what I do is have the joypad and keyboard on at the same time for some games like Darkforces or Duke Nukem 3D and at some point stop using the keyboard for to long and it sleeps. If I remember to touch the little touch pad on the keyboard from time to time stopping it from sleeping no problem. I am looking to see if there is an app that keeps a Bluetooth device from sleeping.

    1st off, thanks for the assistance. Yes my gamepad also does fine. It is when the internal changes places with external or Vice a versa. At one time using external keyboard helper pro i had it solved but that was under marshmallow. I have that app now under nougat and I just can’t seem to get it to work. I could be doing something wrong in the settings. Thanks again.

    Yeah, so here is an example. I have my Bluetooth keyboard connected and start magic dosbox. I start up a game and play but if I allow the the keyboard to idle to long and sleep or simply shut it off it will reset that game. It does not restart the entire app just the game that was running. If I just had magic dosbox and no game physically running and the keyboard sleeps or is shut off everything is fine. Sorry should not have said app crashes in my subject title. I will say this, I had this figured out with external keyboard helper pro in marshmallow but now I am running nougat I am not sure if that is it or I simply can not remember how I had external keyboard helper pro setup.
