In the Developer options menu, there's the setting for keeping the screen on when plugged, "Stay awake - Screen will never sleep while charging". Does this setting stick for anyone ? I check the box, back out of the settings menu, and look again and it's un-checked.
Are you connected to an exchange server? My servers security settings force that check off. Just a guess.
Nope

Im on the latest stock MD3 and it stays checked for me. Maybe its just your rom? Or It might sound stupid, but have you rebooted your phone, quirks sometimes happens and a reboot usually resolves it.
Ive had settings not stick before and usually running "fix permissions" solves the problem. Are any other settings not sticking?
Fixing permissions didn't work. I've had the S3 for two weeks and out of the box, this didn't stick. It's one of my automatically enable settings (been flashing ROMs for three years). Currently running bean's stock/rooted/odex version.

I have a rooted thunderbolt (thanks for all who made that possible). in the last couple of days I have noticed that the screen does not timeout. I don't know if it is a rouge app, or some other problem. I have done some searching and it appears that I am not the only one with this problem, but I have not seen a solution to the problem yet.
After a reboot it does appear to work correctly for a time though. If it is an app how would I find out which one is doing it? As a side question. If I do a hard reboot will I lose root?

Go to Spare Parts > Battery History and select "Partial Wake Usage" from the first dropdown. Should tell you what the culprit is.

i've noticed the same thing intermittently over the last few days, let me know if you figure out how to fix it
Yeah, I get this too.
Do you guys run Titanium? My screen wouldn't turn off this morning, and now that I'm paying more attention, I noticed Titanium ran an auto-backup last night on the charger. That might just be a coincidence, but something to look out for.

Well the spare parts thing did not work...
Any other ideas?
The only time I had this happen was when I bumped the volume buttons as I was setting the phone down. Somehow the volume indicator on the screen got stuck or something and the screen never shut off. I just started being more careful not to bump the volume, or actually pressing the power button to shut the screen off. Idk if this is your issue or not, just thought I'd throw it out there.

Change the setting to disable "partial wake locks" (in TB) and it will go back to sleep.
pandora radio also has a toggle to keep the screen on while its in use.
maybe you guys are using pandora?

When I try to turn on Accessibility for those apps, I get a pop-up with options to cancel or turn on. CANCEL will cancel, but tapping "TURN ON" does nothing. If it's not going to allow me to turn it on, it should at least give me a message. Any idea what's going on?

Have you done any sort of debloating and/or are rooted and disabled a lot of stuff? There are a couple of things that will prevent turning on Accessibility for apps if they are disabled. They are UniversalSwitch.apk and SamsungTTS.apk.
I mention it because I've had this issue in the past.
So how do you turn these back on? I'm pretty sure it's UniversalSwitch that's preventing it. Mine doesn't say its disabled though.
I uninstalled Lux and that fixed all of my accessibility issues and helped me add a credit card to google wallet. Hope this helps

Hey, OP here. I just had to go into Lux advanced setting to turn it off. Then I could change the Accessibility settings and go turn Lux back on.
Hello,
I am facing the exact same issue but I have never heard of LUX before.
I am not using it so it must be something else but I can't figure it out. Do you have any other suggestions?
Could help me saving a lot of battery I guess

If you have any sort of screen filter turned on or anything is overlapping the screen, you need to turn it off momentarily. Android secuirty policy prevents you from clicking that while an app is hanging over the screen for a good reason.
Based on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/help/knock-to-wake-t3239674
So far it's only a confirmed suspicion, but it's already happened to several people including myself. Accessing the hidden menu may break the knock on feature, even without doing any modification in it.
Possible Solutions:
-Hard Reset (100% working)
-Deleting Finger Prints (I've only seen this working on 1 person in another thread)
Please report if this has happened to you and if you've done something else to solve the issue. Thanks!
I go in the hidden menu a couple times a day to change RAT selection and have only had one issue. So I wouldn't say it's a 100% the hidden menu

Nope, doesn't break it. Been in the hidden menu to access Engineering Mode a bunch of times already and knock-on works fine.
Went in there to unlock the APN fields. Knock-on works fine.

Guys, it only breaks, as I stated in another thread, if you open the IMS Settings (which causes a crash) in the hidden settings menu. It is 100% reproducible, but *ONLY* that setting causes the issue.

Nope that didn't break it either
@baymon - Funny how everyone notices this until you post a PSA about it then everyone has to try to rebuke it.
If it "breaks" (turns knock on, off) you can use the anycut type app from the play store and make a shortcut to the hidden menu knock on option to toggle it back on or off if you so chose (I turned mine off so it would stop turning on in my pocket).

Obviously we need more data on this issue, there could be other variables in play as well but that's why we're raising the awareness of the knock on issue.

I'm anxiously awaiting everyone now saying their knock on is broken ?
Didnt break mine! Thanks for the info to get into hidden menu though
nope mine still works but i do have issues with the screen in calls but thats it. but but was that way when i got it.
i think your hidden menu theory is good but my knock doesnt work but it stopped after i did a rest because the apn got messed up and it wouldnt let me add a new one. so i found this out this problem seams random as hell and if i turn knock pattern on to unlock the phone the knock works to turn the screen on but not off. i also noticed my second screen doesnt have the flash light on it when off anymore. so i will be doing a reset tomorrow unless anyone knows how to get the secound screen apps back when the screen is off. i think those apps are related to the tap on
It did break mine. Went to menu and hit apn unlock. No crash or anything. I noticed it not working immediatly. Knock code does still work.
I had the issue also, then did a reset. But I want to add to the issue that it didn't only effect knock on, but the touchscreen didn't register anything altogether when screen off. Meaning, the second screen can swipe when screen off to show the quick toggles, it did not work during that time.

mines the same no quick toggles
Mines the same no quick toggles but i found the answer with out rest on another post. i figured it out that its just something crashing the hidden menu doesnt matter what even force closing causes this problem. which is what i did seeing that the first time i used it nothing happened but the second time when the problem happened i cleared all apps and it stopped working. i'm guessing they disable it if something crashes it.
the knock on actually just gets turned off. Here's the quote for the answer make sure both knock on settings are on and it works instantly so no reboot needed.

Get yourself Quick Shortcut Maker, launch it, change the search type to 'Normal', search for 'Knock On', click on 'Settings', then on 'Try'. On the next screen, switch Knock On back and forth and see if that works.

Unfortunately no dice I toggled Sound Mode, Vibrate while ringing, Volumes, Intensity, Pattern, and all the toggles under System and Key-tap Feedback a few times, then tried Do not disturb and still FC. Toggled everything again and rebooted, and still FC. Also cleared the "Settings" cache from the Apps section in case something had gotten corrupted. Thanks for the suggestion, hopefully it can be narrowed down.

Did you try toggling the switch in the notification panel? That is what fixed it for me. Push it on/off 3 times and hold the toggle. Second row last column of the image.
I still prefer Silence Premium Do Not Disturb (already had it bought). Not to be a sales man but to me DnD sometimes when I hit the volume rocker disables itself. With Silence I can just click the notification and it will resume the scheduled mute.
I can confirm the same issue on my S7. I have tried all of the listed fixes including a factory reset. No go.
No issues or problems here. Every since my wife used on her S6 I started to use it on my Note 4 and now S7 Edge.

Just tried toggling that option about 5 times (DnD enables / disables) and still get a FC when trying to access its settings. I'll have to check out the app, thanks for the suggestion. I rely on DnD quite a bit!
Wohoo! I got it working! I'm not sure if this is exactly what did it, but last thing I tried was toggling the DnD option in the notification panel a few times, and then left it as toggled "On" and restarted the phone. Once restarted it still said DnD was on, and I was able to click the notification and it finally let me in to the settings.
Same problem here... apart from the fixes don't work for me - or haven't at any rate!
Annoying as I need to set times for the DnD, so toggling doesn't cut it!
So, oddly mine has started working as of yesterday... no idea how/ why - very annoying!
Having the same issue. Toggling and restarting did not work for.
Looks like this is a bug in the core Android settings application. It fails when it attempts to read the schedule start time. Why do some of us have the issue and others not? I suspect it's because those that have the issue might have set up a DND schedule on a different phone and that gets restored when you setup the S7 the first time.
Bug has been reported to Google and I'm hoping that they can provide guidance on how to clear the associated settings without having to wait for the bug to be fixed in code. Because we will be waiting forever for that fix to hit our phones!
DND works fine for me. I have it on a daily schedule, and sometimes manually activate it via quick settings
Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
Got Mine Working
I fixed it but couldn't get it to work the way that was described above.
Here's what I ended up doing.
I think I had DND turned off and then I turned the volume all the way down using the volume rocker buttons. When it was all the way down, I turned it down one more click. I then slid it open from the top and clicked the DND button to turn it on. I then clicked the DND notification panel and it opened automagically!
Hopefully this or some variation helps some people.
Good luck.
Now I just want it to turn off DND based on my alarms, like my CM-rooted LG G3 would do.
So I've noticed since upgrading to Pie, when using the quick toggle switches, the wrong item is displayed at the bottom of the screen. If I was to click the wifi toggle, it will say mobile data enabled at the bottom of the screen. If I was to click the wifi toggle off, it says wifi enabled at the bottom. I'm 110% stock (Verizon version ?) thoughts?

Mine keeps enabling "Night Mode" to "Always on" all by itself. I set it to "Always off" and it turns itself back on again after just a few minutes.
Weird stuff going on.
I may just start going through system apps and clearing cache and see what happens.

That I believe is because you have night mode turned on in the messages app, or any other Google app that has a dark mode setting. The night mode setting in developer options I've noticed, doesn't really matter. When I use Android auto, it switches between day and night on its own. Now if I pick up my device and use it while it is still plugged into my car, and I open messages which I have dark mode enabled, it will switch Android auto to dark. And I would have to unplug the USB and plug it back in. Hope that helps

You're absolutely right. The night mode setting for the notification pull down follows the setting in the Messages app ... which I had turned on.
Thanks! That was driving me nuts.
