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.
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?

I was just wondering if the screen on the LG G2 is supposed to remain on if you plug it in for charging?
I'm running stock UI and after plugging it in, when I wait for the screen to time out it goes to a live wallpaper and other themes I've tried seems to do this as well. I can't find any way to have it time-out normally to an off LCD screen. I'm just afraid that with the screen on that it will affect the charge time.
It seems that I can only get the screen to turn off by pressing the power button. If I try to knock off, it just throws the phone back to my lock screen.
Is this normal? If so, is there anyway to set it so the screen turns off automatically while charging?
Turn off the dream crap in settings.
I have owned many Android devices over the years. Every one except my Nexus 7 would dim a few seconds or so before completely turning off the display. However, my N7 just turns off when the screen timeout timer expires. Every time it turns off, you have to use the power button to turn it on. I much prefer the behavior of my other devices when it comes to the screen timeout. Is there a way to get the N7 to dim for a few seconds before going off completely like my other devices do?
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.
