When I use my HD, tapping with staylus, sometimes (2-3 times a day) it just suddenly turns off..
I just install HD tweaks and chose some settings...
I have the opposite problem, mine doesn't turn off on its own after the 3 minutes selected in power settings.

No matter what I set in Settings -> Power, screen dims after a (short) while of inactivity both on battery or power. I had similar issue sometimes with my Elf. I just had to check those boxes and uncheck them and press OK, sometimes I had to restart it. But it never worked with my HD. It always dims backlight after some inactivity no matter what I set in power settings. I want to have backlight on full power (according to L-sensor) all the time even if I don't touch it for hours. It's really annoying to tap screen every minute when reading something because it dims.

did you install any extra software? could be some conflicting settings/registry entries

I remember it was like that out of box ;-( but the time was longer, now it dims after one minute.
I've got the same problem. Very frustrating indeed.

I unchecked the "Turn off backlight if device is not used for x sec" and the phone never dims, so it seems to be a problem in your devices/software only.
I have a HTC Magic from Orange (PL), unmodified, without root access, Android 1.5 out-of-box. Recently, I've noticed annoying issue on my phone. If I don't press "end call" red button to turn screen off, it will be on forever - the phone is on the desk for 15 minutes, I'm not touching it, and the backlight is still on, with my Android desktop (not lock-screen) on the screen. It's look like there is no timeout to turning backlight and screen off, although this was working some time ago. I've tried to change settings like timeout value in minutes, WiFi sleep mode etc. but without success. It is so annoying that I have to remember now to press red button after using a phone. Anyone can help me?
P.S.: I don't have aFile or Dark Keys installed.
Is there a setting or a way to keep the screen on without having to tap the screen every 10 minutes?
I've tried four different ICS ROMs, and in each one the screen always blacks out at 10 minutes of idle time. It doesn't even matter if I set the display sleep to 30 minutes. At least it's easy to wake up. Just need to tap the screen. But when I'm running on the treadmill watching a video with my tablet just out of reach, it's not so easy to tap the screen. I've tried several apps that keep the screen on, but they don't seem to work.
Search "no screen off" in the market
Make sure in the ROM settings you have it so that it won't turn the screen off on idle
My screen always cuts off after being idle for around 10-15 seconds. It doesn't matter what I set the timeout to, it cuts off if I don't touch the screen for 10 seconds, even when I'm moving the phone around! The only fix I found was to enable caffeine, which is annoying when my screen accidentally turns on and never shuts back off unless I manually turn it off (like when my phone is in my pocket or a bag and I don't notice the screen is on). Does anybody know what to do? I already tried resetting and that didn't work.
Why is the screen always on ?
The sleep setting of 30 seconds does not seem to work.
I'm on latest FW
My phone started doing this a few days ago. I did a test last night:
I plugged the phone in to charge,
I pushed the power button to turn off the screen and observed it was off.
I got up this morning to a 100% charge with the display on!
Hmm
Mine used to do this as well. I find that if the Ambient Display option > lift to check phone option is active will cause the phone to wake sporadically with little vibrations. I've turned this option off and just have notification wake my screen.
