Wake up Android with use adb or Eclipse (just before debug)?
adb shell input keyevent KEYCODE_WAKEUP
As described here, this wakes up the device. Behaves somewhat like KEYCODE_POWER but it has no effect if the device is already awake.
To toggle sleep/wake with one command you can issue
adb shell input keyevent KEYCODE_POWER
Here's what I came up with:
adb shell dumpsys power | grep "mScreenOn=true" | xargs -0 test -z && adb shell input keyevent 26
This will first check to see if the screen is on. If it isn't, it will emulate the power key, which will turn on the device's screen.
