Upgraded from ICS to Jellybean on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and notice the power setting widget is now gone.
What I really miss out of it was the Screen Timeout toggle whereby I could set the timing by toggling the time value.
I have checked the market to see what is available and so far I have found one that only turns timeout on/off and another is a shortcut to the Display Setting screen which I then have to select screen timeout then set which is too many steps.
Can any one suggest a good free widget?

Okay so I discovered that Auto brightness in CM7 is messed up so instead I am using manual brightness setting. So far so good, but when I use Google navigation, after a while the screen dims to lowest brightness and wont go back to my brightness till the navigation app speaks next instruction and then it dims again after a timeout.
Anyway to turn this annoying behaviour off?
Does changing the screen timeout setting help?
The one under Settings > Display > Screen Timeout is the setting I'm reffering to.
No, that only affects the screen turning off. It remains on, just dims to lowest brightness
Give this app a whirl. You can select an app and while in the app you selected (navigation/maps/whatever) the screen will never turn off. I don't think it will dim either.
You have to use navigation thru car home to prevent that.

Hello.
I have GS MTCD device with Android 6.0. I have the following problem both with stock rom and with Malaysk's one.
I want to set a screen timeout so that after 1 min for example the screen turns off and an app starts as screensaver like Glance Plus. Just like on any phone, but on this device there is no Screen Timeout settings. I tried different apps for timeout settings, but after I save the new setting, the system restores the default one immediately which is Infinity (always on).
Is there a way to overwrite this setting so I can turn off the screen? I searched for solution but no luck.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Perhaps you can find a launcher which does the same thing for you. If I am correct Car Launcher Pro has some sort of screensaver feature. But not sure if you can chose the app to be launched.
I personally would like to be able to specify the screen to go completely off. My KLD unit has a button in the notification bar which turns off the screen completely (including backlight) but didn't find a way to trigger this either by tasker or any other tool yet. Also it looks like changing the volume brings up this useless volume-bar on screen which wakes the screen (might be an issue also with other types of screensaver).
Yes, I'm using exactly Car Launcher Pro. Unfortunatelly its screensaver does not autostart for the moment. Hopefully the developer will add this feature
I found this in another discusion : https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...tcd-device-t3598908/post72445250#post72445250
This file has a sleep_timeout setting but it is disabled. I have no idea how to enable it though.
I don't understand why these devices lack screen off feature

Did you find a way to doesn't wake up the screen when press the volume button?
Is there a third party app that allows you to use the wakeup gesture...*however*...adjust the screen time-out to more than 6 seconds when viewing the watch this way?
I believe this is well known - however, the screen time-out feature ONLY works when you turn on the watch in some other way than using the wake-up feature. If, say, you turn the bezel or hit the button to turn it on, then the screen time-out setting will be used (as whatever you set it to). However, I have no found a way to adjust the time-out when the watch is turned on via raising your wrist (aka Wake-up Gesture enabled).
Thanks, in advance,
Rob

Hello friends...Samsung Galaxy Note 10+....Any way to increase the duration of message notification visibility on the lock screen? It's really short, just appears for a second and it's gone
Settings > Advanced features > Motions and gestures > Smart stay
Keeps the screen on while you are looking at it. Works best when Lift to wake is also enabled.
Smart stay is enabled. I was asking if there is any way to keep the notification visible for longer when the screen is locked and if it's lying flat on a table with the screen off
enable maybe notification reminders under Accessibility/Advanced settings
Hi raul6 that just sets up a repeat notification after the set time interval,such as 3 minutes for example...
I missed flashing LED notification. I feel all phone should have one.
