Hey,
the box appears when you, e.g. with a usb keyboard, select the icon. To remove it I would suggest to just restart your phone... or if you really use a keyboard try hitting back or escape
peace

Just click anywhere else on the home screen or push the back button. It will go away.

There are ALOT of forums discussing this issue, when you hang up do not hit the home button or back, let the phone return to the home screen on its own and this is the work around for this particular issue...

Confused here... Your title says your phone won't sleep.. But your post says your screen times out (shuts off?)??
Little more please....

Try to delete some recent apps you installed.
I never got to the bottom of this. My screen will turn on after I get a txt or the alarm clock rings.

Those are proscribed behaviors... The phone is supposed to do that unless you dl a mod. I think freeza did a mod for the messaging notifications....

Hope I'm not thread jacking. But they turn on and never turn back off. So if I don't put my phone on the charger at night and then I get a txt, the screen stays on and drains. Or if I snooze in the morning and pass back out, the screen stays on.

Wake locks! Use better battery stats to tell you what the offending app is.

I'm actually having this issue. Phone will stay on and won't go into sleep. Touch key light duration is set to 1.5 seconds but this stays on as well. And I'm having to reset the phone every time this happens. Could anyone direct me to resolving this issue?
Use better batteey atats to find the app keeping it awake, and uninstall.

Is that a app?
I've had this phone for about a month and a half, and almost every single day I have to go into the sounds setting to disable the "screen touch sounds". Has anyone ever had that issue before? I have the phone set up the way I like it, and don't change anything in the settings anymore, but somehow I'll be going to do something and I hear that silly noise when I select something. I know it's not a big deal, but it drives me crazy. Any advice?

Same for me. I ended up going in with root explorer and replacing the sound files with silent files to stop the sound from coming back.

Happens to me every time I put the phone on vibrate and back on sound. It is annoying.

i havent had that problem at all, ever since i got the phone and rooted with phantoms blaze rom its been working flawlessly, no issues here.
I've noticed it only happens when you change the camera to video or back to camera. So its the camera modes turning it back on. Try it out for yourself.

I have the same problem with the key sounds as well, and I also have the same problem with the hectic feedback. I have no idea what it is, but it's a small problem...

yep, you nailed the cause of the problem. I also have the same issue. It seems this is a pretty common problem on sgs3
I have been turning on the camera app and having it sit black with all the app buttons (settings, flash, etc.) not working. 5 seconds later, the screens shows what the camera is pointing at and the settings begin to work again.
If it freezes, i click the home button, hold the home button and clear the camera app, and open the camera app again, the camera will work.
Anyone have a similar issue?

Try going to application manager --> camera and clear data.
This problem is back.. Any other advice before I assume it's a hardware issue...

Went to sprint and they told me other people are having this issue and that they're pushing an OTA..
Just want to see if anyone else is having this issue because I think its a hardware issue.

Dont know what else to call it really but I know this is happening with all of our devices.. which is when the screen times out and u press home to wake it up it takes u back to default homescreen. The sgs3 doesnt react that way and ive had to get used to hitting the power button instead. Any ideas? This would be amazing and greatfully appreciated.

I can't replicate this issue. I let my screen timeout and pressed the home button and it simply turned the screen back on to where I left it.

I've had it happen. You press he home button immediately after the screen goes black, and it wakes the screen up, but also takes out of what ever you are in and takes you to the home page. I've retrained myself not to go for the home button, but the power button.

Stock rooted. I tried it multiple times and the same thing happens, screen times out, I instantly press the home button and it turns the screen back on but keeps me on the web page, app, etc that I'm using.

This is really an issue, "immediately" hitting the home button when it goes to sleep? Why not just avoid letting it go to sleep or hit the power button? This seems like a non issue to me and I've never had it happen.
but my post does not help the OP so good luck with that, sorry for the editorial.
The point is my sgs2 gti9100, and sgs3 tmobile which both had physical buttons didnt react this way.. I find it to be strange.

Are you using stock LEAK ?
I think this is a Jellybean 4.1 issue. My Note 2 has the same problem, but my wife's Galaxy S3 didn't when she was on ICS. Last week the phone updated to JB and now the problem exists.
This is definitely related to Jelly bean but I'm not sure if it is strictly a Touchwiz Jelly bean issue. It happens when I removed S Voice from the home button double press. It happens on the S3 and when my Note II comes in I bet it will happen on there too.
There are a lot of people that noticed it and I even saw someone open an issue with Google, although I'm not sure it is entirely a Google issue.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39326
The last line is the issue maybe.
"I want the single tap to be more snappy - for that I must disable s voice, but when I do it this bug raises its head. "
Do you guys have s voice disabled on the home button to save that lag time?
I disabled the s voice on the home button but still have the lag.
