At 15% and 5% i got this ****ty message of low battery and then at 5% it's put the brightness to zero which takes me time to change it back because i can't even see the damn screen..
I'm pretty sure there is an option to cancel those messages, but i couldn't find it.
I don't have root or twrp, 100% stock.

Do the touch key lights just stay off when the phone is low on battery because right now mine are off and I have it on always on but my battery is very low.

If you do not use any batterh saver app, the system just acts as you set up it on settings > display > touch key light duration
You can change the time from there.

But if your touch light is always off on low battery then you may need to check wether any application is intercepting your default settings.

you did not answer my question...
it happened when my phone went into critical mode maybe it was just an bug because after it died and I turned it back on they were on.
My second post. Which rom are you using? If you do not use any tweaked version nor any battery saver app, system won't turn off the light.

Mine shut off once the battery gets critically low, also screen dims even though I have auto brightness off.
It makes sense why it does that though.
This past week the stock Samsung internet browser app dims when opened. Then when I close it the phone goes back to the brightness level it was at before opening up the browser. only happens when using the Samsung stock browser. Anyone else having this problem?
Stock AT&T GSIII
Edit: Also wanted to add that this is not happening on my wife's GSIII.

Check display settings. There is an option to change the screen tone to reduce battery usage. Try unchecking that.

Thanks for the reply but just unchecked it and it's still doing the same thing. Even tried toggling on and off auto brightness and it still does the same thing. It's very strange.
Try turning off powesaver.

I'm chalking this up to a bug. I have a friend with an S3 with this exact problem. No amount of settings changing would fix it. I'm pondering doing a factory reset on his and seeing if that fixes the problem.
I was having the same issue. Turning off power save mode fixed it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Its not a bug. I was able to make this happen or not happen by changing a few settings, but I don't remember which ones because I'm on AOKP.
But it definitely is a battery saving feature, so turn off all battery saving stuff and then try it.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
The Samsung gs3 browser has its own display brightness settings that are independent of your screen brightness settings. While in the browser press menu and you should see a screen brightness option. You can select between 3 levels of brightness or set your own slider.
Thanks everyone...I found the culprit.
For anyone else having this problem, it is under the phone settings, power saving, I unchecked "Background color" which says "Change background color to save power in internet"

I dont know if anyone is facing the same problem I have now, my n2 screen wont turn off by itself. I have set the timer on 15secs, smart stay disable. It juz wont turn off when idle. And if its fully charged, it will stay up all night as well.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Does it relate to my Omega rom or Redpill kernel?
Thanks
Do you have motion on?
Reboot?

Check developer options, stay awake. Make sure its unchecked.

experienced this after upgrading to 4.1.2 weeks ago. backed up everything, complete-wipe then reflashed my rom(always on stock). no more issues. must have been a hiccup.

I had this even when I was on 4.1.1. Thought the upgrade would solve it for me but it didn't. Tough luck. Still searching for 3rd party apps that could give me a permanent solution.

i noticed this problem sometimes with 4.1.1 but not with 4.1.2
I dun have a fix to this problem but I have a tasker profile that turns the screen off when battery is fully charged. You might want to try that as an interim.
What is your screen time out once mine was changed automatically check that
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
There's a button on the side for that
Just kidding, that's very strange. I noticed if you reboot the phone and don't touch it, when it comes on the screen never turns off either. Doesn't matter if it's plugged in or not.

I had that problem when using smart stay and smart rotation settings turned on in display settings. After I turned them off the screen shut off after 30 seconds as it should every time.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Yes I noticed when 'smart stay' is turned on it causes the screen to stay on all the time. It's not a perfect feature. So I've turned it off
Sent from my SGH-I317M using xda app-developers app
do you have the power option to stay on whilst charging?
It's not smart stay, not the screen rotate with your head thingy nor the developer option that keeps the screen on while the device is being charged. I turned all that off. This is clearly a big that I've had from 4.1.1. Can't get rid of it. Annoyance at its peak.

Are you saying that the screen just won't turn off, or that it turns itself on and then won't turn off?
If it's the first, my guess is an app which prevents the screen from turning off, didn't release its lock after being shut down. This can happen with some games, I've seen it with angry birds and jetpack joyride, titanium backup has done it too. Try to empty ram and kill processes, and/or reboot, though I would guess you might have tried that already.

If doesn't turn on on its own. When the bug kicks in, the screen doesn't go off if it's manually turned on or If a missed call or message is left unattended. Hope you got that. But yes, I can turn off the screen manually but doing that every time is ridiculously annoying. The bad thing is I cannot know if the bug is active or not without actually watching my screen till the timeout. Annoying bug! I've tried various things and I do not know what's causing this. I'm on stock rom, never rooted.

I can't stand the flashing red light at 15% or the pop up, also can't stand the 10% and 5% popups afterwards.
Any app that controls LED indicators and OS popups?

I dont think there's an app but there probably a way to change that in system settings I would email a dev

You can disable the led using an app but to remove the popup requires a bit of editing and decompiling and recompiling of apks

I know for sure MikG allows you to disable/alter power savings thus disabling the prompt.
Can someone tell me if there is a way to stop the screen from turning on when I get an SMS as well as stopping the SMS from appearing on the lock screen? It's very annoying and I'm sure over time it cuts into battery life.
Thanks.
Msg. Setting.

Settings in message app and uncheck preview message.
Theres no way to prevent the screen from waking i dont think...custom roms only.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the replies. I'll have to wait for a ROM then.
Thanks again.
Problem is with preview unchecked you still get a box on your lock screen minus the text info. I believe it just says "message".

chomp
use chomp sms. its quite fast, more customizable than the stock messaging app and actually has an option from preventing the screen wake. i cant say for the other sms applications though, but chomp is good
I have been using Go SMS for years. I really like the customization and settings. You can turn off stock notifications and eliminate the screen wake issue.
