Screen Timeout - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

I have my screen timeout set to 2 minutes but my my screen turns off after about 15 seconds. I've tried with the smart stay feature off or on, makes no difference, any clues?

Reinstall your Firmware

Thanks I'll try that. Is that the same as reinstalling the MOAR rom?

Screen flickering issue

Hey everybody...
I just got a new note & everything is excellent except that I've been noticing some weird flickering in the screen... Its not even flickering, its more like it goes dark for milliseconds & its not that frequent. Should i be conserned or its a software issue... does anyone have such an issue?

Have you got auto brightness enabled? If so try manually setting the brightness, also check your screen timeout in setting /display set it to a 1min not 15secs

Auto brightness is off. The same issue is happenning with my galaxy s3.

Go into Developer Options in Settings and set animations to .5x.

Take it back. It may be a defect.

I dont think it is. Because on the home screen & some apps like youtube the issue is nonexistent, Strange

I have not seen this issue yet. Had mine since launch.

After some testing I found out that the screen issue is related to some apps only such as chrome & xda's app. Most other apps work just fine such as s note, photoshop, youtube, all games & the home screen shows no flickeri g whatsoever.

I have seen this, I was worried but it is very difficult to return my unit as it is a grey import.
I totally didn't notice that it went away after changing screen timeout to 1 minute. Battery life is good enough to easily cope with this.
Setting back to 15 seconds to see if it re-occurs.
fyi, I leave brightness auto.

I can confirm that the problem is solved. The whole issue is that some apps are conflicting with the hover function for the s pen. Once you disable that function in settings all becomes completly normal without any issues.

I have the similar issue on my Note 10.1 - the browser is the biggest 'flasher' and it seems random. I called Samsung support - They had me reset to factory and the issue went away, but eventually came back. I don't want to have to keep resetting to factory as that is painful for me to reconfig everything and I tend to believe that if I restore to ClockWorkMod backup, the issue will still be there.
Hi.
l had the same problem earlier. Simply deactivate the hovering S - Pen icon, and voila!

Notification sound after call.

Everytime I end a call my phone makes a notification sound. Any idea what this is for and how do disable it?
Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk
Go into call settings and there is a prompt that allows you to turn it off on

I turned off the end call notification and still get it.

So I've figured out when the noise happens, but can't figure out how to turn it off. It happens everytime I connect too lte.

Is it a sound or vibrate? I see an option for vibrating
Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk
It's a sound and its quite annoying.

117 views and no one else has experienced this. I've come to the conclusion that it has something to do with lte, but can't figure out how to disable. I can't be the only one.

Not sure, I've had two S5's now and neither did this.
It's possible some random setting that carried over for most of us etc.
I know the first S5 when it restored my old phone settings the screen timeout was set for 45 seconds for example, well that's not a valid option so it made the menu look funky lol. The second one it didn't do that as I had changed to 30 seconds before exchanging again.
I imagine something similar, some setting carried over to disable the sound and we just dunno which/where.
I did a lot of traveling yesterday and bounced on and off 3G and 4G and no data many times, no sounds.
Maybe it's the roaming guards too glitching? I do disable those too.
Thought I disabled the roaming guard but will check again. It wouldn't bother me as much if it wasn't so damn loud.

I feel like an idiot. It was signal check pro. It never did it on my g2 or my tablet, but for some reason it was on by default on my s5.

Brand new nexus5, can't get notification LED to work?

I just got my nexus 5 last night. This isn't my first android device so I unlocked and rooted it.
I installed gravity box and everything, and noticed that my led was not blinking for texts. I tried multiple texting apps and the end result is the same...it does not blink.
Now for the funny part - when I use test notifications within evolveSMS the light blinks, just not when I receive any notifications.
Does anyone have any ideas? The led is checked under display settings. I am on stock 4.4.2, with elementalX kernel.
Thank you!

Hmm does it have to do anything with kernel settings? Have you tried your notification LED before on stock kernel? Was it the same??

I'm actually heading home now to check that out. I haven't heard any issues with elementalX kernel though.
I'll keep you posted. Thank you!

Battery saver not working

It won't turn automatically at 20% like I have it set or will any of the settings work when I set it manually. I am not rooted running full stock. Any ideas?

If you turn it on manually it still works. Try setting it to turn on at another percentage and see if it will work automatically.
Fixed did another reset and started working again. Thanks.

Mine turns on at the correct percent but doesn't seem to do much in the way of saving battery

Screen goes dim and unresponsive for a few seconds

Randomly my phone screen still going dim kind of losing something is overlaying on the screen and it won't take any touch input. It lasts for about 3 seconds and then returns to normal. It appears to be Software related.
Has anyone else experienced this out know what's going on?
