Bear with me as this is all new, but in attempting to disable the thing by using the info from bberry:

"In the homescreen, bring up the search dialogue with the del-key.
Now write: ;debugOn and enter
To disable screensaver enter: ~disableScreensaver
The screensaver is now completely disabled. You can't even use it through the power slider.
So, to enable it again, enter: ~resumeScreensaver
You can end with ;debugOff"

Not a durn thing is happening. No change whatsoever, so perhaps I am confused as to what "enter" is. My presumption was it is middle of the 5-sided square but if that's the case then its not working on my device.

Thanks in advance for the help
the 'enter' key is one of the regular keys, the one on the bottom right of the keyboard (left pointing arrow with an upward tail on the right).
