to identify whether the system_inactivity_ind occurs when the device becomes active (return false) or going to sleep (return true).
aaaah, I understand. To address that issue I simply checked if the screen is dimmed AND the keyboard is closed.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
#check screen is off:
brightness=$(cat /sys/class/backlight/acx565akm/brightness)
#check keyboard closed:
keyboard=$(cat /sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/slide/state)
if [ "$brightness" == "0" ]; then
        if [ "$keyboard" == "closed" ]; then
                #do some stuff
        fi
fi
This way, if I was actually doing something that and did not want the device to run the script I would just leave the keyboard open.
