Screen won't stay on and LiveView won't work #189

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Nikon D3200 connected via WU-1a 
2. Have "Keep screen always on" option selected
3. Select Lv

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Instead of the screen remaining on, it is constantly dimming, shutting, and 
locking, forcing me to touch and swipe it in order to get it to come back on. 
When I press the "Lv" button on the program, I get an error message that says 
"Liveview prohibition, The Exposure Program Mode is [Scene mode] or [User 
mode]". Can't get the Liveview to display. I have "Live view at startup" and 
"Return to Live view after capture" selected in settings.
When I press the Lv button on the camera while connected to DSLRDashboard, I 
get an error message on the camera that says "Cannot start live view at current 
settings or under current conditions".

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using version on Google Play downloaded on 1/21/14 on Galaxy Note II

Please provide any additional information below.
Was hoping to be able to use android screen as a viewfinder, but I can't get it 
to display. Most controls and shutter release seem to function properly, but no 
image displays on screen. After a picture is taken, program does download and 
display the image, but it takes a LONG time to download. So long that it is 
almost useless. I thought that I'd be able to see those images displayed almost 
instantly, like it does on the camera's display screen when a picture is taken, 
but maybe it has something to do with Liveview not working?

Sorry for late answer, my stupid fault not seeing there where more open issues 
(more pages).

You have a setting for this: General->Keep screen always on

Please select a different exposure mode then [Scene] or [User] before entering 
live view, and once in live view change to the mode you require.
Use the latest version V0.30.33
