I have again a really strange problem with my german TP2!
After using it for a while with my stuff allready installed and customized, the Timeout for shutting off the display seems to be set to 30 seconds again but the Backlight settings are set to 5 minutes!
Anyone encountered the same problem? Only way to solve it is a Hardreset! And the same game appears after a few hours or days again!

Hey users!
I was wondering if anyone else has this problem: my screen won't autolock. Whenever I leave my DHD around without actually pressing the screen-lock button, it just lowers the contrast and brightness, and leaves it that way for the screen to drain my battery. Rebooting the phone seems to solve the problem sometimes, but not always.
My phone's rooted, but the problem did not occur until I checked the "don't go to sleep while charging"-option. It's now unchecked, but the problem seems to reappear every time a charger is plugged, and from time to time when it's not.
Anybody have the same problem? And hopefully a fix? I haven't tried a factory reset yet, hoping I won't have to...
Is your screen timeout set to 'never turn off' in the display setting?
Hehe, no it's not. It's set to 30 seconds, and the contrast/brightness adjusts according to the settings - as I guess it should.
maybe there is an app running that is interfering.. I know that Titanium Backup used to cause the screen timeout to be ignored after it did a scheduled backup so maybe you have something similar.. other than that I can't really think of anything else that could be causing it atm.
I found that using a task killer when this happens resolves the issue.
I guess some apps have bugs and prevent your phone from sleeping.

That might just be it, I have Titanium running 24/7... Tried to kill it now, aaaaand it looks like it did the trick! Hopefully my scheduled backups still will run tonight...
All, i'm having a huge problem. beginning last weekend, whenever I wake up I find my phone clock has become nearly 5 minutes slower.
Because of my sleep schedule on the weekdays, its always 5 minutes late by the time i wake up. strange thing is, within 10-15 min of my phone being "awake" I assume the auto clock sync corrects the wrong time and by the time i'm i'm driving to work the clock's time is right.
i tried turning off wifi one night i think a couple days ago to see if it was some type of strange wifi issue and i found that with wifi turned off, my phone was almost 20 minutes off on the time.
This has affected strangely my alarm clock as well and sometimes it doesn't even go off and i naturally wake up and check and it shows the screen where the alarm clock is running, asking me to "dismiss" or "snooze"
This is super cumbersome, is ANYONE else having this issue with the hox? my only conclusion is while i am sleeping and my phone is on standby for many hours something isn't quite doing its job. maybe something like the phone time being off, i don't know, like 30 seconds an hour or something. I'm still on 1.73.
during the day while my phone is turned on every 30 min to an hour, my clock is perfectly sync'ed.
please help.
turn off auto updating and manually set it - does it still happen?
it could be a conflict between phone time and network time, and the phone stops checking when asleep?

Are you using a custom kernel? Some kernels can have time slew issues. Most people don't notice it. I use Clocksync from the market to keep synced.

i've only rooted it for titanium back up. kernel is factory. i am definitely going to look into clocksync as well after tonight's test. thank you.
i can confirm after i turned off network clock sync that it indeed was not the problem and that there is something inherent in the software that is slowing down my clock on my phone overnight. thing is i don't have any crazy apps. this is so strange.
anyways i have downloaded ClockSync and seeing if this will fix the problem. thanks
My wife has a Captivate Glide running UCKL1 (2.3.36.3). She has changed the screen timeout to 2 minutes, but for some reason it periodically gets reset to 15 seconds. We've installed just a few apps from the Play Store (all of which are also installed on my SGS2 and it's not doing this), and some searches pulled up an app called Screebl that would cause this, but that's not installed on her phone. I tried rebooting it, and it stayed set at 2 minutes.
Has anyone seen this? My searches didn't really turn up much, at least for this phone or phones without Screebl installed.

I think it's the powersaving mode. When it activates it sets the screen timeout to 15 seconds.

Thanks. It was set to go into power saving mode at 50% battery, and was set to that out of the box. I set it to 30% for now.
Powersaving mode is a bit of a waste of time because there's no trivial way to set everything back to your preferred settings once you've recharged

Shame there's no way to specify a percentage to start powersaving mode at, like 20% or 25%, instead of just having 10%, 30%, 50% and 70%. If anyone knows of a way to do this I'd love to hear about it.
I've got an issue with my 7, every time I set the sleep time (Settings -> Display -> Sleep) to something other than 15 seconds, it keeps resetting itself back to 15 seconds. It seems to occur every time the device screen is turned off or a timeout occurs. I'm on 4.4.4, stock, unrooted. There's no apps I can figure are causing this issue. I've tried removing it from the case, no help. It's basically making the thing unusable.
It seems to be the same issue here, though not exactly, as mine occurs immediately, not after several hours or charging:

Any suggestions? It's kind of driving me crazy.
Hi, Im running OxygenOS 3.2.6 and my phone goes to sleep mode way too fast like within 5 seconds sometimes.
At first it wouldn't go to sleep, so I rebooted and now this problem is occuring. I have set it to 15 seconds in the display settings. What seems to be the issue?
Thanks
