Is there any way to set the screen timeout and the lock screen to have different timers? I'll be browsing the web currently and the screen will timeout. If I want it back I have to hit power and unlock the phone again. What I'm hoping for is a delay between the screen turning off and the phone relocking. That way if the screen turns off while I'm using it, all I have to do is tap the screen again.
Any ideas or apps that will do this?
Tasker can do that for you.

On the EVO 4G there are different screen lock settings. I just thought that this was because they were one 2.2, but this is not the case. One can press the lock button and the screen goes off. If the lock button is pressed again in a predefined amount of time; you don't have to put in the unlock pattern. Are we able to mod our Vibrant's to operate like this. I searched the forums with no luck. Ideally I would like to have the same menu settings in the OS and not App work-arounds (i.e. proxy sensor locks).
Thanks for reading,

Hi
I am wondering if is it possible to have a application to turn on the screen without have to press the HD2 hard buttons. Like turn on the screen if you touch the screen for 5 seconds. Is there any application to do that, or is it possible to any developer do this ?
This is to save the HD2 hard buttons.
Thanks
no. if they did that then the phone would unlock in your pocket. touch screen is disabled when screen is off.

searched for another method to unlock the phone: Shake to unlock.
But found no app, that can do somthing like that with the stock lockscreen.
with Lockbot, which replaces your stock lockscreen there is a functionality that unlocks your phone, if you shake it.
Didn't tried it myself...
Thanks for the tips.
I will try the Lockbot, I put the results here.

For the home button waking phone issue, see this thread in this forum from yesterday:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2266545
I'm not as worried about the Home key, but I have the same complaint about receiving SMS.
When I receive a text message, my screen turns on for a few seconds, then turns off again. Is there a way to stop this?
If I touch the screen when it is on, it takes me into whatever I touched, and the screen stays on. That is particularly a problem when it turns on while in my pocket.
My phone is set to have no lock screen (and unless you use a PIN or similar, I don't know why you would want a lock screen - it's just one more step to get to using your phone).
My Messaging app is set to show notifications in the notification bar and play a sound and vibrate, but not to show a message preview.
So, I think it's actually a bug that the screen would turn on at all, just from receiving an SMS or MMS message.
Am I missing something? Is there a way to stop this behavior?
Hello xda fellas,
Since i switched to a i9505g rom i have a problem with my lockscreen.
Almost everytime i lock my screen and put the phone on the table i accidentally touch the capacitive buttons what causes the display to turn back on.
It turns just back on if i hit the capacitive buttons 1-2 sekonds after locking the screen but its enought to turn the screen everytime back on and drain some battery juice.
Does anyone know how to disable the screen off blocking with the capacitive buttons?
Thanks in advance

Before updating to lollipop, the screen would dimm for a few seconds before timing out, giving you a chance to touch the screen again. Now it just turns off after the set timeout period, and I have to press the power button to lit it again.
Does anyone face this issue, and how to circumvent it?
Thanks
