Anyone else having issues with their settings changing with out user input? For instance, the lock screen keeps resetting back to the theme default. And also the screen timer of inactivity keeps going from the one minute I had it set at to the 15 seconds default and I never touch it?
A Suggestion..

May I Make A Suggestion...
Please try a Factory Reset.. and Do Not restore any apps for a couple of hours.
If the problem still exist, it's your device.
If the problem goes away, it's one of your apps.

Well, as of right now it's only been the screen time and the wallpaper. The wallpaper in gonna contribute to the theme possibly. But the screen of time is weird. Thanks for the suggestion but since it's that minor in gonna hold off on factory reset until we're able to root and twrp so I can backup.

I have stock (rooted then unrooted) JC with APEX launcher. It sounds crazy but my phone screen doesn't turn off by itself.
There are several times I woke up in the morning to find out my phone screen was on overnight (screen must have turned on when I plugged in the charger). Right now, I turned on my phone just to see if the screen would turn off at 1) lock screen 2) apex home screen. neither works.
I tried all these with different timeout settings (15 sec, 30 sec, 1min, etc.).
Anyone having the same problem? Anyone with solution?

Yes rebooting always solves the issue but can i get a permanent fix? It's kinda annoying. I'm on GT-N7100 JB4.1.2 and i've never rooted.
Kinda glad i wasnt the only one having this issue. Happened to me yesterday. Kinda freaked me out as i dont want anything wrong with this phone.. reboot worked for me yesterday.
On a side note.. every once in awhile my youtube app goes to **** and it refuses to play videos.. it says network error yet i can do everything else... reboot fixes that too.

Yeah no kidding. I really don't want anything to go wrong with my phone. But unfortunately it has been kinda buggy from day one. A minor issue with the stock keyboard was solved after the 4.1.2 update. But the weird error with the Quick Commands thingy ain't getting sorted out, even after the update. Of course, reboots also never help.
Oh someone please tell me what's wrong with my phone The screen timeout thingy ain't working An unattended message or missed call means my display stays on till I turn it off manually A reboot would solve the issue but then it would come back again. Any permanent fix? Please help I've never rooted my phone.

Uninstall any apps that keep your screen on or go through the apps list and kill everything individually. imediashare keeps my screen on after I'm done using it cause it still wants to stay running.

Went through the 124 apps that had WAKE_LOCK permission. (Used Permission Explorer). If I count out the recently installed apps before which the problem had originally started, I guess there aren't any suspicious apps. Oops Aren't there any apps that forces the display to go off? ^_^

I'm just throwing it out there by maybe go into recovery and fix permissions? Clear the cache? Factory reset if all else fails I guess.

Hi. Having the same problem... However, i believe it has to do with the feature that prevents screen from turning off if you are looking at it. Try to turn it off and on. Perhaps it will help.
If you continue to have problems, just disable that feature... it is a good adon, but having the screen turn off tose battery is more important.
Hope it helps.
Let us know if it worked out
I was wondering if any has encountered this.
1) After a reboot and when I'm on my main screen, it would take a while for it to load the launcher. If I attempt to scroll with Nova, it would say its unresponsive, and if i wait, it would work.
I recall on stock ICS, after reboot, i'd unlock screen and pretty much immediately i can use the main screens.
2) Sometimes when I try to unlock the screen it would freeze up. The screen remains blank, but the capacitive buttons light up.
I can reboot to enter the phone.
I can wait it out and it would eventually load and say something is unresponsive, sometimes the launcher. And if i wait, it would work again.
Or I can increase min cpu to 486 instead of 384hz, and i dont see this problem. Can someone explain to me whats happeneing? Why would 384Hz create Sleep of death?
Any insights would be helpful. I would like to get rid of the sod or lock screen freezing thing without having to mess with my cpu settings.
And resolve the lag issue at during reboot. it would take like 10 plus seconds for it to be responsive. I'm not saying 10 seconds is long, but the point is that i never had this issue with stock TW.
I am rooted on paranoid android/CM10 latest build. with SuperchargerV6.
Thanks in advance guys.

try dirty flashing the rom. that usually clears up issues in cm10-based roms. make a nandroid if you havent already. cheers
I sometimes have issues with my screen going black when I hit the power button coming from sleep mode. I keep having to reboot, and that sucks. I'm not sure what causes this and past experience tells me not to change anything unless I know what the problem is, and exactly how to fix it. What sucks even more than having to reboot often is having to reflash everything and spend an 2 hours setting it back up.
I added this line----> ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 to the build.prop, but I'm not sure this is even responsible for the problem. Is there something else I need to know about?
Is that going to fix the issue permanently or is there something else altogether that I have to tweak?
I have the Pacman ROM, and the Next 3D launcher. I also have the ROM Toolbox and Android Tuner. Are there settings in either one of those tools that will fix this black screen delay/freeze thing coming from sleep mode?

Try upping your Clock speed to Min/384 and see if that kinda helps a bit.
I was just wondering if this happens to anyone else. So sometimes I go to unlock and the screen doesn't let me do anything, it happens not just when unlocking but when I'm using the phone too, it's really annoying when I'm trying to text someone back or try to answer a call. It doesn't happen all the time so I could live with it....but I'm wondering if anyone has a fix or has the same problem.
Also I have my phone rooted and g3 tweaksbox, and I turned off the knock in code..I don't know if any of these have factors.

Is it lag? Does it only happen for a few seconds before it starts again?
It's not lag..I don't think unless it's a really long lag ?... I turn my screen on and off and it would still be frozen. Maybe after a few mins of turning the screen off and on again it will work...

Sounds faulty i think.I'd get the phone freezing for a few seconds before it responded, but that was lag.
Aww man that would suck if it was... That's the only problem I have!

i had this problem..it would lock up..freeze and i had to wait for a min or so to come back to life..a hard reset fixed it
Oh okay! That is good to know...I guess I'll be trying that soon
I have the same issue as well.
It's not that the screen "stopped" working. It works, except there's no update on the screen. As if the entire phone is frozen, but it's still giving me haptic feedbacks. Except, actions aren't being reflected on the UI; things like, tapping home navbar button, doesn't take me to the launcher, tapping up/back doesn't take me to the previous screen. I can lock/unlock the phone, but I'd return to the whatever page of the app that corresponds to the back/up command I previously made.
I think, the easiest way I can summarize this is that the OS stopped doing visual updates, while there's actually stuff going on despite that "stuck" screen.
I keep my phone in mobile stand while drinking. However, while driving the when automatically switches on. I have tried disabling multiple options like double tap to wake, wake phone on pick up, disabling notifications etc, but no luck.
Anyone else have this issue.

Reset the phone and don't restore the applications or data. Set up fresh. This fixed my problem.

pls could you put the steps, as i did reset, still issue persists and day by day the issue is growing and kind of screen keeps waking up
Reset the device. When you setup, don't add your email and continue. Once you reach the launcher, add your email address, install applications and configure settings.
