I have searched everywhere & cannot find anything on changing the time that the lockscreen turns back off without installing a custom lockscreen.
Do any of you know how to dig into the filesystem to change this?
I simply want to change the timeout to 5 seconds, so when I turn my phone on to check the time, it turns off by its self in just a couple seconds.
I dont even use the lockscreen for long anyway.
I have the Display timeout to 15 seconds & its great, I also have the lockscreen to appear immediately when the power button is pressed (a pretty obvious choice of settings, since I want to have the lockscreen present as soon as possible.

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.
It's strange that when i press the lockscreen botton after screen is turned off by screen timeout,my phone doesn't show lockscreen and directly jumps to the launcher.But if I lock my screen manually by pressing the lockscrren botton,next time the lockscreen will come up.
MAYBE SOME APPS IS STOP THE LOCKSCRREN FROM COMING UP.How can I find it?
I have no problem in system setting.Swipe to lock has been chosen.
Check your settings again.. There is a setting where you can adjust the time how long your phone will remain unlocked after your phone has gone to sleep.
Settings/Display/Sleep. It's always set on 1 minute, whether I change it or not. I've tried setting it to 5 mins and it goes right back to 1 min. None of my changes will stay. Always 1 min. My tab is not rooted and its up to date.
I cannot find the answer anywhere. Any searches I make on Sleep never give me the correct search. I am at my wits end. It's extremely annoying when reading something and the display closes down. I always have to press the Power button to wake it up.
Please give me some suggestions.
Thanks
Restart in safe mode and test if it works.
(To restart in safe mode push power button until the shutdown dialog appears in screen, then push it but don't release it until safe mode dialog appears)
If it works the problem is caused by a third party app so you need to look for that app and change its configuration of uninstall it (should be an app related with energy or screen management, a screen filter, etc...).
Aplications may cause that problem? Restarting phone or removing battery doesnt solve that problem. I have set 2min display timeout and immidiate lockscreen timeout but while phone is locked it turns off display after 2 min.
So all works like it's supposed to!
Not an issue nothing to see here move along.
So my mxpe lockscreen wasnt timing out at all, using latest google phone wakes up the device leaving lockscreen opened and if plugging in the turbopower waking the lockscreen it would stay opened. I found this solution to work.

Ok. So recently I used "power saving" mode. I took it off immediately after I didn't need it any longer. For some reason, the Android system on my phone didn't register that, so my phone lock screen kept time-outing after 3-seconds (kinda annoying when trying to use Samsung Pay).
Anyways, do what I did: simply go to Settings>System>Battery>Power Saving Mode>On
Then just turn it back off. Kinda like cycling it, but only once. This time around, my Edge seemed to pick it up, and register it. My timeout screen is now longer than those annoying 3-seconds.

I guess it didnt fix it. The sleep when in active is set for screen and lock screen. This sux. I have sleep set @30min so my lockscreen will stay alive for 30min.
Found a real solution that works. Found here.

Some stated to goto developer options/running services and kill one by one each service and power off the screen and back on till timeout works on screen well I did this and found that Material Notification Shader kept the timeout screen from timing out so I disabled the app and I have a timeout on the screen after I power on the screen and/or plug in the power cord.
