I have an S10e. Screen timeout is set to 10 minutes. But it keeps blanking after about 30 seconds while I'm listening to instructions & I'm displaying the keypad in a "press 1 to..., press 2 to..." menu system. I have to touch pretty much anywhere that isn't a number to keep the screen active & be able to press the appropriate number when the menu system finally tells me which selection I want to make. It's a PITA! Why does it blank LONG before the screen timeout setting? Is there some setting somewhere else that I haven't been able to find?

For security reasons, I have a 10 digit code set for my HD2. However, the default behavior of the hang up/on/off button not only blanks the screen, but also activates the lock as well, which means that I have to enter a 10 digit code every time.
What I want, is to change the behavior of the button, so that it only blanks the screen, and to use another program, such as ThrottleLock to secure the screen instead of the lock password. I've set the phone to lock in 30 minutes, so that if I don't activate the phone in 30 minutes, then I'll have to enter the 10 digit code.
Any help would be appreciated.
Nevermind. Found the cab I needed here.
While roaming through my phones settings I discovered the following setting and cant seem to find out exactly what each number refers to.
Settings\System\Notification Drawer\Widget Buttons\Screentimeout Modes
It shows the following:
15s/1m/5m
30s/2m/5m
These appear to be screen time out settings but does anyone know what each number is referencing?

I think its obvious
15 seconds / 1 minute / 5 minutes
30 seconds/ 2 minutes / 5 minutes
It'll work this way.
If u select the first option and then touch the screentimeout button thrice, it will toggle between 15s / 1m and 5 m
The second option will toggle between 30s, 2 m and 5 m
What is the difference between the ScreenTimeOut setting vs.Display\Sleep?
And I am not sure where I would find the ScreenTimeOut button.
I don't know.the difference exactly. I think it's the same
Pull down ur status bar. Do u see buttons at the top? one of them is the screen timeout button
OK, that's why I could not see it it was not ticked in the settings to show on the bar. Weird and possibly redundant feature though.
It's not weird...screen timeout means when your phone will switch off the screen...sleep means your phone will switch off the screen+go into standby mode...sleep mode saves battery but take longer time to reload your previous activity...
OK, I (without reading of course) thought the Display setting turned the screen off not hibernated the phone.
I have posted this in another thread recently but are you aware of any tweak or setting that will prevent the screen from blanking when using the dialer? It will not blank if I call voicemail (I guess it knows more keys will be entered) however, other calls immediately blank even though I have more keys to press. I have tried for some time to locate a setting or fix to no avail.
As it currently stands, if I were to press the power button on my phone to turn on the screen, the screen turns off within 5~10 seconds if I don't unlock my phone. This is annoying if I'm checking notifications or something, because it just checks for an unlock, not user input. If I'm looking through my notifications and sliding on the screen, it'll still timeout. Is there any way to change this value?
The only option I know of is Settings > Display > Sleep, but that's once the screen's been unlocked and there's been no activity, I'm talking about the timeout directly on the lockscreen.
Ever thought about asking that in the ROM thread?

Hello. I'm new here and I really need your help. Recently bought Huawei Mate 9 and I cannot use the screen recording feature. Whenever I click the icon on the status bar, my phone only goes back to the home page and is not showing the prompt to start recording the screen. I also tried the knuckle screen record and the Volume Up + Power button and same thing happens. My screen only goes back to home and does not show any prompt to start screen recording.

Have you turned off window animations in developer mode? Put them back on. At least to .5x
Where can I find that setting sir/maam. Still having this problem. Thanks so much for reply.
You have to enable the Developer options.
Settings > About phone > Build number
Once you’ve found the Build number section of the settings, tap on the section 7 times. After two taps, a small pop up notification should appear saying "you are now X steps away from being a developer" with a number that counts down with every additional tap.
The thing is if you don't know where developer mode is, it means you did not turn off animations in developer mode in the first place ?

Hi - I had this issue as well with my Mate 10 Pro and I found out a way to fix mine: Go to Settings > in the search bar type "Dropzone apps" > Dropzone apps
This sets the permission for individual apps to display over other apps. In "Dropzone apps", find "Screen Recording" and turn on the permission. This fixed my problem. Hope this helps you too!

I have two problems with the lock screen: - The first problem is must DoubleClick twice to wake up the screen, and sometimes you click several times and no response. On the Note 9 it was a long press on the screen and then you felt a vibration .. you were pressing the virtual home button and it was quick. - The second problem .. After updating to Android 11, the notifications on the lock screen appear in the form of icons and do not appear in the form of a summary box..I have set the settings on the lock screen, but it is useless .. Is there a solution .. Is there a screen lock application Better than the default app?
