If you like to use wifi a lot on the 360, like I do, go to wifi settings, advance, change battery saver delay from 30 mins, to 180 mins. otherwise, after 30 mins the watch becomes basically useless.

I am running CM 6.1 Stable, and have been for a while, yet this issue just popped up a few days ago.
I cannot get the phone to auto shutoff the screen when idle. I have it set to 5sec off and 1 sec lock, (down from 30 sec off, 5 sec lock before).
I have looked at the stock settings and all are in order.
The only thing different is I was trying to play with the setting on my Alarm Clock Plus regarding screen setup, but have reverted to original settings and even rebooted several times with no success.
Anyone else having issues with this? Any way to enable screen off again without having to flash a recovery?
It's really killing my battery fast!
Thanks for you help!

In the android display settings, 15 seconds is the least amount of time to turn off display. how is yours set to 5?
In cyanogenmod settings, theres options to tell the lockscreen to kick in after the screen has automatically turned off and when the user has pushed the power (sleep) button. what is your time set to in the android settings? (settings - display - screen timeout)

Um....finding rock, and hiding underneath it!!!
Turns out I am a moron that can't read.....but I swore that I had the display set to 30 sec....It was disabled. I will test again, over the next few days if for some reason it reverts to disabled.
Thanks!

Lol no prob. Happens to the best of us!
Just thought I would post some of my tasker setup to make my battery last a very long time!
First you need Tasker
You also need Secure Settings
And lastly you need Synker
if you want to make my settings super easy to install just download the two attached files and place them on the Sdcard in the Tasker folder.
userbackup.xml
userbackup.xml.txt
then start Tasker, click on the menu button and select Data then restore. This will place all my prebuilt settings in for you.
The first profile I have is Mobile. I have this profile made for when I am in my car but its settings are for anytime power is plugged in.
The things it does is: Turn on GPS, Turn off auto brightness, turn display brightness to max, turn auto sync on, turn media volume to full, turn display time out to one hour.
When unplugged from power it does the following: Turn off GPS, display turns off after 30 seconds, Auto brightness on, Auto sync off, wifi off.
The next setting turns on GPS automatically once maps or navigation is started then turns it off once you exit those apps.
The next one is the big battery saver! When the display is off it Turns off mobile data and wifi.
When the display turns on it will wait five seconds and then turn on mobile data.
lastly I have it setup to turn on mobile data every 2 hours and sync gmail then turn mobile data back off.
I have had tasker for a long time but never really dug into it until I got the SG2. I think this will make your battery last much much longer.
If anyone has better suggestions please add your input.

i have the same setup but use juice defender to do the same thing as tasker and synker. it can actually more, like sync more or less at certain times of the day. but i've been thinking about switching to tasker, might be more battery efficient.
i'm using secure settings to turn gps on\off too, based on what applications get run. i noticed the little tray icon only turns on when an app is actively using the gps tho. does that mean gps only uses battery when actually in use? but it seems like i get more battery with it turned off completely.
for mobile, i'm going to attach gps to my car's nfc sticker instead of when plugged in. might be a little faster for charging at home.
i guess you could use secure settings and tasker to only turn nfc on at the lockscreen. although i'm not convinced nfc uses much battery.
lets see... i'm also using tasker to immediately turn off the display if upside down (in my pocket).
it turns data off if i'm reading an ebook or watching a video.
i use it for 1 click switching between 2g and 4g.
i use it to switch cpu max between 192000, 918000, and 1728000. you can get crazy battery life by running 192000 all day, but everything will run slow. usually i keep it at 918000 and play games at 172800.
there are lots of other things, but that's the battery stuff.

Hey ,I just wanna say thanks I was getting 8 hours on a Verizon extended battery but now using your settings and tasker plus extra apps I'm getting 14 to 15 ,I just wanted to add that it in order to use secure setting you have to root your phone but it worth it.

Do you still have these backup files? The links are dead when I try them. I would like to try out your settings.
Reupload please

First post and it's a necro asking for something. I swear I used to have an account here in high school.
Anyway, I think those files are gone. Every time I come back to Tasker I try to start from the group up and a day later I'm fiending for backup.xmls/txt just whatever you use for your battery, please, just a quick string of code.

There are settings for anywhere from 5 seconds up to 30 minutes for the sleep timeout. However, no matter which one I select, the cover app goes to sleep in about 3 seconds. If I set it for Never, it will stay on but obviously that isn't an option as it would drain the battery fast.
Anyone else had this problem?
Really? I'm the only person who has ever had this problem?
Subject pretty much sums it up. Not sure what the heck happened but, for some reason everytime my note 8 sleeps the display time out resets to 10 mins. so if I set the display timeout to 15 or 30 seconds and then let my display time out in 15 or 30 seconds it will but when I wake if up the screen will then not turn off until 10 mins has past. if I check display time out in settings/display it shows 10 mins. WTF. I do not have any tasker type apps or display changing/tweaking apps that I know of or battery opto apps etc.. also i have not yet taken the bluetooth fixing update that vzw is insisting to push on my note 8 as I dont want to inhibit my phones ability to potentially get root/bootloader unlock eventually.

Display time out keeps going back to 30 s. I changed my power modes quite a bit so far. It may be when I turn OFF the battery in the settings dropdown toggle. It calls itself optimizing, when it's turned off. I was able to carefully set options for battery saving with toggle on, and checked that turning ON the battery toggle didn't cause the 30 s reversion.
I need a fixed 10 minute set. I can't stand the 30 s reverting because the fingerprint sensor has been so faulty so far with waking it back up.
Same problem as me, we need to report to samsung to solve in next sw update
Right. Back to 30 s time then off after every other restart. Latest updates too.
well according to settings>device care it says that optimization happens once a day. That's probably why it is happening.
I may disable it. I def recommend that you set an extremely long time (files(Samsung A70s native file manager app)>settings)before it auto delets your files. Like 200 months would be probably ok.
