I just started experiencing that my phone wont go into sleep mode after pressing the power button. I can hold it down and pop up menu to turn off shows, and bring it out of sleep after the 15 sec delay i have set up but thats it any ideas?
The only issue I have is when the phone goes to sleep wifi turns off and the captivate starts charging data to my plan. Does this happen to anyone else and if so is there a known cure?
I had my phone not go to sleep at set timeout one time. It may have been due to an app i installed. I rebooted and no problem since.
As for using data when asleep - Wifi turns off when the phone goes to sleep mode - this is the way it behaves, same as iPhone and other android phones. You have some app connecting in the background, maybe email sync?
You can keep the wifi on during sleep by going into the Settings-> Wireless and Network -> Wi-Fi Settings. Press the menu button in Wi-Fi settings press on "Advanced".
In there is an option called Wi-Fi sleep policy. Switch that to Never and you shouldn't have to worry about the wifi turning off when in sleep mode.

Yea It was an app I installed, I did a reinstall from a back up and it works now.
Captivate Shutting Down Instead of Sleeping
Mine is doing this too, as are a few others, from the look of some posts on here. Mine started after a day and a half and two full charges. Suddenly I would go to wake it up and it will have turned off.
I'm thinking I might take it back to the store to exchange it, as not everyone is experiencing this problem. Sucky. I did notice that the battery, after you take the door off, is a little wiggly on the side opposite the connectors. I wedged some thin paper in the between the battery and the battery slot and it still did it. Got to be a problem with the individual phone.
Total PITA!!
I had problems with mine shutting off while in sleep mode and I uninstalled SetCpu and my task killer and it stopped doing it....
I have a single issue when the phone goes to "sleep" mode it reboots.
so i set the lock screen time out to 30 minutes, sure enough phone is stable and useable, if i set the phone down for 30 mins as soon as the screen goes dark, it will reboot
same as if i turn it on, when its on the lock screen after booting, if i dont touch it for a few seconds as soon as the screen goes dark, it will reboot. this is now my ONLY issue
is this a known issue? i cant find anything for a fix for it. help is appreciated.
So I'm using Stock Android 5.0.1 Nexus 5.
The problem is my lockscreen never turns itself off.
So the phone goes to sleep from any normal screen after 1 min (as per settings).
This turns the display off and everything is fine.
But if I manually get the lockscreen up by pressing the power button or by plugging in a charger the lockscreen will stay on forever. I think its supposed to turn off after 10 - 15 sec or so but it doesnt do that anymore.
So every time I plug in a charger I have to make sure I turn the display off again.
I'm not sure when it started. I have dev options enabled on the phone but I never found any setting to fix this anywhere.
Edit: Reboot fixed it for now but I'm pretty sure its recurring. Well with luck its not.
Reboot
when my phone screen lights up to notify me of some kind of event text/phone call/whatever it wont shut off. once its triggered it doesnt shut off until i manually press the power button to shut it off. it will stay on all night. i will go to bed, wake up, find that i missed a message or something from like an hour after i fall asleep and 8 hours later the screen will still be on. i've gone through all my settings and cant find a fix. i've done my best to search online and cant find any fix. i've even done factory resets but nothing helps. it immediately does the same thing. very frustrating. any suggestions or help you could offer would be most appreciated.
Hi there
I've got a problem with this device.
If it is charged to 100% everything works well, the power connector is working also.
When i need to charge it, the device flips on and stays on after 5 seconds when i set it on standby, it wont go 'to sleep' after that, it's always on
I've restored to factory settings, but with the same result.
I really dont know what could be a fix??
