Does anyone have an issue with the heart rate monitor? I have my watch set to monitor continuously but sometime it just stops monitoring. When I go to the heart rate tile, it show the last heart rate to be two or more hours old. I have to either take an ECG or flip the setting to monitor every 10 minutes and then back to continuous t get it to start monitoring again. I cleaned the back of the watch with an alcohol pad but no change.

When strange stuff starts happening one of the first things I try is a reboot. Hold down both buttons for about five seconds. Select turnoff. Wait a few seconds then hold the top button down until it vibrates to restart.
Maybe this will help, maybe not.

How do I keep the phone on all the time to play music or navigate when connected to the car charger?
The music keep playing even when the screen goes off.
And i believe if you are using some navigation software, it will stop the phone from turning off the screen by itself.
If you really "want" to keep the screen ON all the time, you can download some widget to do the trick.
Curve Fish has one, you can set the timer: 15s, 30s, 1min, 2min, 10min, 30min or Off (no turn off)
As the title suggests, sometimes when my tf700 has had a long period of being idle if I go to use it and press the power button nothing will happen. I can still hear it functioning though cause I've accidentally taken screen shots when trying to reboot it when this happens, the screen is just black and I have to reset it.
Any suggestions?

Try switching WiFi sleep off and see if it helps.
Wifi sleep off?
I have that happen to me more than a few times. I just end up hitting power button and just tapping the corner. It works sometimes. but it's not always faster than just rebooting. Although, if you're going to reboot, just hold the power button till device shuts off.
What I think is happening is not that it's not waking, the display is just not turning on. I noticed this by plugging in the charger, which always turns on the display and device.
Yeah, the display isn't coming back up. I've noticed that too because I can still hear events occur (ie: unplugging the charger).
Another user on here tipped me off that it could be that it's in power save mode and the dimmer is COMPLETELY down, if you bump the brightness dimmer up just a hair, even 1 notch, it'll stop it from doing it, or at least it's stopped it so far for me since I changed it.
Why start two threads on the same issue?
Help! My nexus 5 won't turn on after only having it for about a year now.. It's not a boot loop!
Here's what's happening:
-My phone boots up to the google sign and then the 4 moving color dots... It never gets past this screen.
-If the phone is plugged in, the phone will continue this looping process all night.
-If the phone is not plugged in, it will only occur twice when the power button is pushed.
-If I attempt to access the bootloader, I only see the screen for a split second until the google screen reappears and the loop begins all over again.
-I can get past the 4 dot screen by repeatedly hitting the power button on an interval of roughly once per second.
-If I do this, the next screen to appear is the "Android is upgrading.." "optimizing 0 out of 130 apps."
-This screen will not progress through all 130 apps however, unless i keep pressing the power button at the interval of roughly once per second.
I used to successfully make it through the start up process this way and be okay for the day, but now my phone will shut off once the home screen is reached. It seems to me that the power button was a bit too sensitive, but I took the phone apart and it is working fine. I did drop my, which cracked the screen, about a month ago. About a week ago is when the problems began to occur. The insides look good though, just the screen which is cracked. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
I'm trying to hold out for the Nexus 5 (2015)!
Dead power button it is.
In Indian LG service centers they replace out of warranty handset's power button for 330inr roughly 5usd.
I had the exact problem and thought is discarding the phone, but the repair fixed it.
Thanks, I'll look into this. Maybe try to do it myself real quick.
It's not easy to replace yourself, ad the button is soldered to the board. Best give it to a pro lab.
Bang it on a hard surface like a table. That is a temporary fix when my power button starts to act up. You can try hitting it on the palm of your hand, but that doesn't really jar it enough.
If I use wrist gestures to turn the screen on, it only stays on for about 6 seconds. It will only stay on for the selected duration if I interact with the watch or turn the watch on by pressing the back button. Is this by design? I've already reset the watch multiple times.
This can be adjusted in settings. Display screen timeout.
Whatever settings I use, if the screen is turned on by gesture and not interacted with, it only stays on for about 6 seconds. Watch only obeys the setting if I touch the screen after it turns on or I hit the back button.
Can anyone confirm if this is normal behavior?

Yep, is normal. If you raise your wrist to see the time, there is no reason to keep the screen alive for 15 or 30 seconds.
if you turn the bezel one click left and one click right it will remain on for the 15 seconds, 30 seconds, minute or what you have it set to, in failing that there is a widget you can download called flaunt and it gives you the option to have the watch face on for up to 30 mins
I know this is probably way too late but my Gear S3 Classic has the same issue. no matter what time frame you choose for the timeout it only goes for 7 seconds. I've reset to factory twice. i've used factory watchfaces and 3rd party watchfaces but same issue. i'm not sure that the replies above know what they are saying since there are 4 screen timeout settings (15 secs, 30, 1 min & 5 min). If these are options then why don't they work?

The timing for the "wake up" gesture is at a fixed duration of 6 seconds - just long enough for you to see the time. It is independent of the standard display timeout settings for 15 / 30 / 60 seconds.
This is normal behaviour. There is no way to change the timeout for the "wake up" gesture.
It does what's supposed to do...

Hi,
Yes, the watch will only start timing down (or stay lit) the pre-defined number of seconds if you either: rotate the bezel right/left or
left/right on one click as someone already explained, or you either press the top OR lower buttons once. With no 'mechanical' intervention, the default 6-7 seconds ON will prevail. If you think about it, it's a smart design. Turning your wrist get time to see the watch screen; any other actions will leave it on for your desired limit.
Best.
I agree in part. You don't really want the watch to stay on for the timeout period when woken by gesture. However, it should be possible to set a duration for the watch to stay on for a different period on gesture wake up. Perhaps 1 to 10 seconds?
My watch only stays in for 4 seconds, way too short!

Turn off wakeup gesture in settings. U'll have to wake it up using the buttons tho. Fine for me. Doesn't work half of the time anyway.
For some reason my Watch 4 is timing out at around 4-5 seconds. I've tried the setting at both 15 and 30. The display brightness sometimes is turning itself down as well (related?). Charge is at 80+% I've tried cycling the power.
Any ideas.
Unrelated, any tips how to search just a single forum here?
Answered. When the display wakes to a gesture it timeouts in 5 seconds. When wakes due to touch or bezel it waits the set amount.
