[q] Lockscreen doesn't timeout? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running CM11s 33R with franco kernel r14 and Google Now Launcher. When I manually turn on my screen with the power button or double tap, to check the time for example, the screen will not go back to sleep. However if it turns on automatically because I received a text or snapchat, it will sleep if I leave it alone. Anyone else getting this issue/ have any fixes? I have screen sleep set in display settings to be after 30 seconds of inactivity so i'm wondering what the issue is. Thanks in advance.
Edit: It actually seems like my screen timeout isn't working at all, past the lock-screen, even while i'm in the actual device or an app.

Are you plugged in? In developer options, there's an option for the screen to never sleep while plugged in. If not, the answer to everything: reboot the phone!

Nope not plugged in, and i reboot multiple times on a daily basis and that hasn't fixed it.

For me, when I double tap or press the power button and leave it there, the screen will go back to sleep after 30 seconds. My old phone would turn off the screen after 5 seconds on the lockscreen. There doesn't seem to be a setting for this and it's just automatically set at 30 seconds.

i also got this problem
I got this problem also
i'm running same Stats like: CM11S 33R, test with Franco Kernel R14, Trebuchet Launcher.
If i doesnt turn my screen off by power button the screen will be stay activ anyway no-matter which settings i set on Options

i also have this problem... annoying... any update?

I am also having this problem.
In my case, the screen will stay on indefinitely. I have timeout set to 30sec.
I have "Llama" app running, and configured to disable my lockscreen based on location. This could be generating some problems... But I don't think so.
Any new thoughts or fixes?

Only way to find out is disable that app or whatever it does then testing it out

cyanogenMOD ROMs have an awesome auto brightness configuration.
I suggest you check that out.

[Q] Can't get screen to stay on

I use my tablet as an alarm clock and it has always worked perfectly. After the last system update, though, I find that I can't get the sreen to stay on. I have the screen timeout set to 5 minutes, and I cannot override that. I went in to developer settings and set it so the screen stays on when it is plugged in, but that does not work. I tried using the system clock app and using night mode but that also shuts off after 5 minutes, even when plugged in. I tried turning on the screen saver to the clcok setting when it is plugged in but that still does not keep the screen on past 5 minutes.
Anyone have any other ideas for something I could try?
There are a bunch of apps and widgets that make it easy to switch between "normal screen off with delay" or "screen always on". Have you tried one of these ? Since your setting is blocked as you say, I'm not sure if the apps can override it, but you can try.
for instance No screen off (widget)
or Keep screen on (a background app that checks the device's inclination)

I use app Backlight Switch. It has options to show in notifications and has a widget. You can also create an app list that auto-toggles it.

Screen waking randomly

I've been having a problem recently where the screen will turn on (very dimly) when the phone is sitting idly. It seems to happen frequently when there are notifications. It will sometimes do it repeatedly, even several times a minute. Is there any way to turn this off?

This is as designed and is called Moto Display, open the Moto app and select Display, select "Wake screen when notifications arrive" and then select None, it should stop.

If you're using Android Lollipop's "Ambient Display" it behaves similarly. It wakes a few times after a notification before staying off. I think it actually wakes 4 or 5 times at a set interval after a notification is received.
Goto Settings / Display, you should see where it gives you an option to turn Ambient display on or off. As far as I know the only option is to turn it off. I don't think it is configurable, but not sure on your ROM.

Screen Waking up automatically

My phone is waking up automatically to change lock screen picture every few minutes. It used to do that every few hours and now its happening every few minutes. It there a way to fix this ?
I am using magazine unlock and have latest OTA B190.

Try to investigate problem. There is something what does not allow phone to sleep and wakes up periodically.
What specific apps did you install?
Go to settings / battery and look up for draining apps.
Use alternative apps like gsam battery monitor or similar
Additionally, go to settings / screen lock & passwords / magazine unlock and turn off option "auto update over WiFi"
Is there a Bluetooth device such as a Huawei Band nearby?
Settings -> Display -> Wallpapers
Check "interval" number and change accordingly.
However, screen shouldn't wake up from this.

I have disabled magazine unlock screen also not changing wallpaper automatically. There is no notification, it looks like as if phone is waking up to change wallpaper.
Ended up doing factory data reset. Everything is back to normal. Not sure what was going on..

Us mate 9 oreo update kills app

I updated through the phone to oreo. Whenever my screen goes to sleep, my power amp pauses and I am not getting any of my emails, messages etc.. I've checked the settings and applied the do not kill option but it does not resolve my issue. I have tried a factory reset as well.
Mine is intermittent, but, I know sometimes flushing the system cache, along with setting the app setting to never sleep helps.
Also, I have all power saver settings disabled. (with a battery like the Mate, why bother with power savers).
Sometimes, mine still does not send notifications until after I turn the screen on. Mine did it as well with Nougat.

I have tried setting my apps to never sleep but that did nothing for me. Power saver is also disabled.
