Password Protect

Hi guys when I first setup my phone it asked me if I wanted to password protect it and I clicked yes. Now every 3 minutes the phone locks and asks me for my password, this is a good security feature, but its getting annoying. I cant find out where I can change the settings so it locks up every 10 minutes..Please help.
Also...
The button on the top left of the screen that turns the screen on and off, my finger always hits this button when I am typing and it turns off the screen and when I press the button to turn the screen back on it takes me the home screen without saving what I was typing (i.e. a sms or something else)...is there anyways around this?
Thanks a bunch

Hey, to take care of your password issue, go to Start > Settings > Lock and in there you will see the settings on how long your phone will wait to lock again after inactivity (after you type your password). You can also use this area to chang your password. Hope this helps.
As far as your issue with the power button, I'm sorry but I don't have any suggestions.

[Q] Screen is blank but phone is working

The screen of my OPO went blank, but I believe the phone is still working as it gets notifications, the torch comes on with the "V" from the standby screen, phone wakes from a double tap and the phone rings when called from another phone. But the screen is completely blank, so I cannot reset it because I do not know where to touch the screen.
I have entered a repair ticket with OPO support but they are advertising a wait of at least ten days before any response and I have tried, but cannot hold my breath quite that long. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Same problem over here, have been using phone for few months without any problems, very carefull with my phone, no drops, moist or whatever, but suddenly this strange blank screen starts to occu. Backlight buttons come on and vibrate but screen stays blank.
I can however reboot my phone by holding the power button until it vibrates, phone will work ok ..... until it happens again.
Try clean flashing whatever ROM you're on and go from there
I think it's referred to as "SOD" which stands for "screen of death" maybe? Or darkness? Lol I dunno search for sod

look at my post one the oneplus forum, i'm pretty sure this must be some sort of a software issue

[Q]Screen doesn't turn off when locking

Hello everyone.
I have a couple of problem with my xperia Z3. The problem is that when i press the side button to lock the phone, the phone get locked but the screen seems to be still on(and then turn completely off after a few seconds) . I mean that even if the phone is locked it's like i am seeing a completely black image. This doesn't always happens with Android KitKat but with the Lollipop upgrade i made yesterday flashing a generic Baltic firmware, the problem got worse! When it happens the screen stays on even after few seconds and it doesn't turn off and i'm forced to restart the phone to "solve" the problem. If it helps, when the phone locks fine the screen turns off immediatly but when the phone has this problem when i press the lock button i can see for a moment the screen locked, with the clock, the padlock icon, the fast dial icon and the fast camera icon ecc and then the screen turn black(but still on) like "something is slowing/blocking the phone from getting locked"
The second problem that i have is that sometimes when i make a call or recieve one when i put the phone to my ear the screen doesn't turn off and the tousch screen still works making me end the call unintentionally touching the screen with my ear for example. I haven't had this problem yet with Lollipop, but I used to have it with KitKat. Anyway this is the less important problem that i'd like to solve because even if the phone should work proprely by itself i can always accept the call and then lock the screen with the side button "solving" the problem of unintentionally ended calls. But the first problem really bothers me a lot and i'd really like to know how to solve it.
Does anyone have at least one of this two problems and knows how to solve them? Thank you !
I'm sorry for my english and i hope i've explained myself well. I've just restarted the phone so the problem at the moment doesn't persist but the next time it will happend i will make a short video to make you see exactly what happens or if you think that this two problem could be caused by an app just tell me and I will write you a list off the app that i've installed.
**Edit: I'm really sorry, i haven't read that this was the wrong section for questions, could someone move it to the right one? Thanks.

empty message box appear every 30 sec

Hi,
I have a very strange behaviour happened to my nexus 5 after upgrade to android 6.
When my phone is unlocked and screen on, every around 30 sec my phone will show an empty message box like the image 1 below
hxxp://postimg.org/image/c2c3idkeh/
hxxp://s28.postimg.org/c2c3idkeh/Screenshot_20151203_002123.jpg
it will cause the screen which already at dim stage (normal dim screen before screen turn off) to turn back on again (like the screen has received touch input) thus the screen will not turn off if i don't intentionally press power button to turn off screen.
I find that the message box is similar like in the image 2 below

It's very annoying because the empty message box keep showing whenever i use my phone. And if i forget to press power button to turn off the screen, the screen will stays on cause battery drained very fast. I still can use my phone normally tough
it happen both on stock ROM and cyanogenmod ROM (I'm using "12.0-20150202-NIGHTLY-hammerhead") but it doesn't happen when the phone on recovery mode.
My current phone setup :
Nexus 5
ROM : Cyanogenmode 12.0-20150202-NIGHTLY-hammerhead
Recovery : twrp-2.8.7.1
Anybody know what cause the behaviour and how to fix it?
appreciate all the help

Problem of waking the screen

When I make a call and hold the device to my ear, the screen goes off. And that's fine. But when I remove the device from my ear, the screen is still black. I say goodbye to the caller, and to interrupt the conversation I have to press the power button or double tapp screen to wake the screen. Is there any option to wake the screen more actively?
The same problem here....
I hope they will fix this in future updates. My friend dont have this problem. On other forum some guy told me that i need move phone and i will get phone wake up. On my other phone (s9+) i dont have this problem. This problem have many s10 series phone. I read that the problem is because proximity sensor position. And AOD dont turn off when is phone in a pocket or screen down wich use more battery.
I tried old good wipe cache in recovery and...it's good, problem is gone.
Try it too!
I try. It didn't help
Same problem as well, it doesn't happen always but often enough to annoy me...
yeah, same problem here man
same problem.. if you turn your phone upside down it will get the movement and show the screen but don't think this is actually a good workaround! does anyone know if there is something to do for it?
