My phone will randomly wake up and turns the screen on. If it's plugged in it will sometimes stay on. The phone is completely stock and "Stay Awake" is not enabled in developer options. This is the lock screen and not the Quick Glance screen. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a way to tell if its a certain app that is causing this problem?

When certain apps are running and my screen sleeps, the phone will vibrate once, wait a second, and vibrate again. With that same app open (TD Ameritrade) it vibrates the same way when I rotate the phone, or turn the power off. I don't recall this happening on Eclair, but does on Froyo EC05. Has anyone else noticed this for certain apps, and am I missing a setting?
I don't like the vibration, BTW, and want it turned off. Very irritating.
Thanks!

Yes, this keeps happening to me too. The second time it vibrates in two short bursts. Usually when this happens something force closes as well.
Hi Everyone
I am currently in the process of putting a Nexus 7 into my car dash as a headunit/stereo replacement... however, once its in, the buttons will not be accessible... Which leave me with the obvious problem, when the tab goes to sleep... how do I wake it back up? Are there any settings/apps that will allow me to wake the device just by touching the screen?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
You can use a magnetic on correct spot of the screen to wake/sleep.
I stills dont own a N7 so cant tells exactly the spot on screen OR any other way to acomplish that

I have the same problem. The way I currently deal with it is I've set the Nexus 7 screen to stay on when charging, and then to turn off after 15 seconds once it is no longer charging. So turning the car on wakes it up, and turning the car off puts it to sleep after 15 seconds.
The "keep screen on while charging" option is under the Developer menu.
Hi everyone,
i had the same problem with my S2, but is there any way to keep the screen from turning on when the battery is fully charged? I understand it's a "feature" to make me unplug the charger, but it's really annoying when the screen turns on in the middle of the night. So far i've been placing the phone face down, so it won't wake me up, but that's not really the solution i'm looking for.

It does turn back off in a few seconds (after the screen times out), right?
Honestly not sure how this little light can wake you up
In any case, did you try some of the apps for the older galaxies, like Battery Silencer?
Another suggestion would be to turn on for the night the Blocking Mode in settings , and configure it to suppress notifications.

In developer options you need to turn off "always awake" or the phone "wakes up" when it has charged.
If you can't see developer options in settings / other, tap build number 7 times and it will appear
Thanks for the quick replies.

My sleep isn't very deep unfortunately... Yeah it dows turn back off after a few seconds, but it still wakes me up.
As far as I understood, those silencer apps and the blocking mode only supress the sound of the notification or do they also keep the screen from turning on?

The "always awake" option is already unticked, but the screen still keeps turning on for the timout period

I have that turned off on my phone, and it still wakes up for a few seconds when it's fully charged. Wakes up when I plug in the charger, too. Neither one is a big deal to me, though.

Ahhh .... must be a "design feature" then
I leave my phone in the computer room overnight (don't use it as an alarm) so I've not noticed.
Hi there. I'm currently having an issue with my S7 edge where the lock screen won't turn off after some time. The screen does turn off when I'm using the phone normally from the main screen after some time passes but it's just the lock screen I have issues with.
Whenever I charge my phone or just hit the power button once to see notifications on the lock screen, it'll just stay like that until the same time the main screen timeout configured time passes (5 minutes) and this is getting annoying and somewhat draining a little bit more of my battery. Previously it was working fine and the lock screen would turn off after around 10 seconds or so.
Has anyone faced any similar issues with their phones? I haven't tried a factory reset yet but I'd want that to be a last resort.
Clear Background apps.
It happens when you left some games or apps by pressing home button but it keeps running. Hope they will fix this soon.
Have you tried pressing that little button on the right side of the phone? That usually helps.
Yeah...I already tried that with no luck. Even tried uninstalling some recent apps in case one of them was cause but it didn't work either. Any other suggestions?
The issue isn't with turning the phone screen off by pressing the power button, it's the lock screen itself not turning off after a few seconds when it usually does.
I'm having the same problem, had good lock installed thought that may have been the problem but after uninstalling that I'm still having the same problem with samsungs oem lock screen. I too would like an answer or fix for this. also to note, in developer options the stay awake is off and no apps running in the background.
I am having this problem now also. The screen will lock, but the display stays on but dimmed. I can tap the screen and it will get bright. Now I must click the side button every time I set my phone down or the screen will drain the battery.
I'm facing exactly the same issue. When the screen is locked, it stays on for the same time confirmed to when its unlocked. For example, 1 minute, instead of 10-15 seconds.
Any workaround discovered for this?
Did anyone find a solution to this problem?
I thought that I might've been the only one! This problem only appeared on my phone after the Nougat update, and it's extremely annoying as I rely on notifications waking the screen for my main messaging app.

Hello, I am having the same issue in my Redmi note 11 pro plus Phone. In my case The screen will lock but display stays on with dimmed light. Usually it is not visible during day, but in dark room its visible. And it stays the same way whole night. And battery is fully drained and phone is turned off. Is there a solution for this??
Recently I have noticed when I set my phone down the screen stays turned on. Has anyone else had this issue? The screen just will not turn off I have readjusted the timeout settings. Stay awake is not turned on in developer options. It only happens on the home screen. While I'm browsing the internet or doing just about anything else the screen will time out properly.
So no one else is having this issue?
