How to increase shutdown time of the lock screen?
The "off screen" option in the "Display and background" can only set the switch-off time of the "home" but has no effect on the lock screen
I also tried the option "automatically Locks" in "lock screen" settings. I put 2 minutes but the display when it is in the "lock screen" , shuts down after a few seconds ...
The Samsung has set, in my opinion, a switch-off time of the lock screen too low.
The problem affects even the screen of the cover's View that goes off after a few seconds ...
I also tried some App, type "Screen Timeout", but they all only have an effect on the home screen and not on the lock screen .....
Do you know any App that allows you to set the switch-off time of the lock screen without having to root?
Thanks a lot

I have recently had a Touch 3G and want to know if there is an auto screen lock.
I don't want to have to put a pin code in every time but just want it where it prevents me calling people whenthe phone is in my pocket.
When I first set up the phone this function was on there but as I have had to hard reset a number of times (due to software compatibility issues) it seems to have vanished.
Can anyone enlighten me?

I am not sure about auto lock.. but you can try this method.

I do not know an auto-lock of screen but you can lock it by pressing the red button for 2 seconds if you set "\Start\Adjustments\Buttons\End long press" to "lock" (all translated from german, perhaps other terms in english).
dunno if it's same thing but on my jade after a min of inactivity screen turn off and touch is disabled i control this also with power off button

This is called "energy off". In this status you only can activate the handset by the ON/OFF-button. It can be adjusted by "Start/Settings/Energyadministration/Extended" (all translated from German).
The Lock I described above means that you have to touch two special places of the display to unlock display and buttons. This does not depend of "energy off". It your handset is "energy off" and "locked" you first have to power it on by ON/OFF-Button and then unlock buttons/touch.
Both functions are overlapping a bit: If you power the handset off by ON/OFF-button of course the touch/buttons do not react. If you lock it as described above the touch/buttons are deactivated but you can see the display until it vanishes according to the energy-settings.
I use s2u2 for this and find it quite good
Hi - just got my new HD2 - great phone! Added some tweaks etc from this site (thanks very much BTW!)
I've got a question about the lock screen. When i press the off button the screen goes black, I then switch it on and the lock screen appears. Then after a few seconds the screen brightness decreases and then the screen turns off again. But what I want is for the screen brightness to decrease but the screen not to go off, so that I can easily unlock the phone without having to strain my fingers to get to the buttons in the corner to switch the screen off. I've changed the dimming and off settings in the settings menu but it doesnt appear to affect the lock page. Any ideas??
No matter what I set in the lock properties (even if I disable lock) my HD2 turns on the lock screen whenever I power off the display (end call button) and wake it again. Is there a way to only activate the lock after the time specified in the lock settings has passed?

Sadly, the answer is no.
It's either on, or off.
whenever you go to suspend, it would lock (or not, depending on the settings), it does not consider the time parameter.
(this is my experience.
if someone else knows how to suspend without locking,
but set a lock only after a specific time without usage,
I would also be glad to know how)

My experience is that the device wakes up locked (simple swipe unlock it if no password is set) even if the lock settings are disabled. I remember my Touch Diamond didn't have this issue...
power button -> screen off -> wait a little -> power button -> screen on. power button -> screen off -> wait 16 minutes (15 was the lock setting) -> power button -> screen on & lock screen.
this is what I want
I think what you can do is to use the S2U2 v.2.30 lock instead of the default WMo lock.
Through the right S2U2 settings (e.g. Lock when device wake up, Replace WM6.5 system manual lock etc.), the S2U2 should be able to override/disable the default lock settings. Then by setting the right sleep/suspend/wake intervals using the device setting and/or other power management apps, you should be able to achieve what you want.
Btw, there is also a registry tweak (also available in .cab) to fully disbale the default screen lock. Just search "Disable Auto Device Lock.cab" in this Forum.
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.
Is there a way to bypass the lock screen when using smart lock when trusted? What I want to do is double top on the AOD screen which then takes me directly to the home screen and NOT the lock screen where I have to swipe in again. Any ideas?
I have also been looking for a solution to this. While I have not been able to completely bypass the lock screen here is a workaround which minimizes when the lock screen appears.
Settings --> Lock screen --> Secure lock settings --> Lock automatically I increased the time from 5 seconds to 30 Minutes (which is the maximum value)
When away from my trusted places I use the power button which locks my phone immediately based on the 'Lock instantly with power key' setting
Hope this helps
I used Gravity Screen for this purpose a few years ago. I don't know if it works with this phone but you can try it out.
I also is able to turn on your screen as soon as you pick it up. And bypass your lockscreen ofc.
