[Q] Lock and screen on different timers?

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.

screen won't stay off while: navigation only

Sometimes I want to turn the screen off temporarily to save power while using navigation. Now when I use the power button to turn the screen off, it only turns off for a second, then pops back on. This only is happening in navigation mode - screen will stay off otherwise. Any ideas?
I'm on Orange Glacier with the latest faux123 kernel...tried fixing permissions.
Same thing happens to me. I haven't bothered to check though. Maybe it is made to stay on in Navigation mode.
Check settings in navigation app probably made so you wont accidentally turn it off while driving then have to fiddle with it and risk a crash

Well my bad I guess. It looks like this is how it operates stock too...I could have sworn I was able to turn the screen off during navigation in the past, but must not have been able to.
I have checked and no such setting in default navigation for screen on and off.
I was just guessing I have a seperate GPS and only use nav when I'm in someone else's car and they're lost lol

Same thing happening here since recent update. It's not ROM-dependent, and I haven't figured out how to disable it.
I don't mind if screen timeout is disabled, and actually prefer that, but in this case I'm pressing the power button to turn the screen off and it repeatedly turns back on immediately.

Phone keeps vibrating even after setting change

Hi everyone, I recently changed my rom to cyanogenmod 7.1.0 everything seems to be working fine except for this whole vibrating issue. I have the setting set for off. It vibes when I get a call and when I get notifications. With my hanging with friends app, all I get is the vibe and no sound.
Can someone please help me out?
Thanks in advance!

Try turning the phone off , pressing the volume up and down at the same time and holding the red button for 5 seconds this will do a factory reset of your phone

Touch stops responding after sleep

Hi I am running CM7 and sometimes after I wake the device up the screen simply does not respond to my touches. The device is not frozen the home keys and all will work and you can use the volume keys, but since you can't click on the power menu if you bring it up, you have to do a hard reboot. It does this fairly often but not every time. Any ideas?
That is the sleep of death issue. turning off wifi before or using a wifi management program will help. Also, the latest CM7 has the problem slightly less. Check it out.

Yea...started happening to me a few days ago. Try totally disabling the lock screen, and see if it stops. If it does, you can enable it again. Are you using the regular slider lock screen? That's what I was using when it happened. I used face unlock for almost 2 days, and it never happened. I'm not running any lock screen now that I'm home, and its fine. Its just weird that it randomly started happening...I've never used a third party lock screen or even messed with the default settings for it to happen.
Yeah im using the stock lock sliders. I'll play with the lock sliders tonight when I get home and see how that goes.
