Set timeout to something reasonable (30 seconds or less) and enable Smart Stay.

Screen timeing out with stay awake selected

I have the screen time out (settings->display->Screen Timeout) set at 15 seconds and the stay awake (settings -> appications -> development -> stay awake) checked but it will not stay on.
Anyone else have this issue after update to 5.3.6?

Sets the screen timeout.... AKA SCREEN TIMEOUT ,if you want it to never timeout, set it to never... 15 sec = 15 sec timeout, 30 sec =30 sec timeout and so on...

STAY AWAKE
Screen will never sleep WHILE CHARGING
this will be the only time the screen never sleeps
I am aware of the WHILE CHARGING part of it.
I plug it in and it will not stay awake....
I am seeing if anyone else has this issue to see if something went bad in flashing from stock to supercharged to stock to update to stock to update or if they messed something up in the update.
I plug it into my charger to keep it awake while I have it mounted in my car for Google music and it would stay awake with the screen time out option selected and even shut the screen off when I would turn the car off before I updated to 5.3.6
So if someone can give a simple it is working on my phone or a hey you ****ed something up that would be great.....
It's working for me. When I am charging it stays awake.
Not sure what "5.3.6" is but I am on the new 2.3.6
It is 2.3.6 but I just had someone else in the office check it and they have the same issue after the update...

[q] Lockscreen doesn't timeout?

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

Screen Timeout Setting Keeps Changing

Have my Screen Timeout set to Keep Screen On on my LG G3 running 4.4.2 and something keeps resetting it back to 30 seconds. I've posted on the LG forums with no response. I've tried running Log Cat but I'm apparently too dumb to figure out how to find out what's causing the setting to change. Any thoughts?
Bump... anyone?
I think you can set the timeout on display setting, set time as you want it.
Thanks yeah... I know. I have it set to not turn off. But it still reverts to 30 seconds periodically.
I have set 2 minute timeout on my phone, and its work fine, but it will be reverts to 30 seconds if the battery is low (on state < 15%) . I'm not quite sure but i think your phone timeout setting periodically reverts is because your phone is in low battery state
My battery has never been below 50% so that's not it.
Thanks though!

Caledar reminder issue keeps screen on

I have issue with calendar reminders keeping screen on. I get reminder on the lock screen( not using always on display) for a calendar event and it would go away after what ever screen timeout setting is, then it comes right back. It would repeat this forever until calendar reminder event is dismissed.
I ask another guy at work and he is getting the same with "always on" enabled .
Anybody know how to fix this? I would expect that android would honor timeout setting and put phone to sleep after 1st reminder.
Thanks
ps I'm running nougat on Verizon
Can somebody replicate this for me? Set screen timeout for 15 seconds. Set up a meeting in google calendar with starting in 7 minutes and reminder 5 minutes before meeting. Then wait for reminder on lock screen to pop up, don't touch anything and let screen timeout. See if screen will get activated again and go off after 2nd screen timeout.
If you get the same behavior, please report. I think there is something wrong with this as if you had a meeting reminder and the phone in you pocket, the phone battery will drain fast and phone gets hot of course.
Thanks
im having the same issues with my s7e. phone calls dont go allow the screen to go off either.
I have the same problem. This started only recently for me on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge with AT&T. The screen will keep coming back on with the notification every 5 seconds and the battery getting drained.
Somehow it appears that this is related to my Samsung Pay account but I can't figure out how/why.
