Phone Locking problem

I'm running jack's ROM v2.
I've set the screen-lock to automatically activate when idle for "0 minutes". I expected this to mean that if my phone dims, then it'll screen lock.
But the problem is, after 30-60 secs (I haven't counted), it will screen lock. I've set the screen to dim at 3 mins, but the lock comes on a lot sooner.
Anyone have any ideas how to change the registry so that I can make the screen lock only when I press the screen-off button at the top of the phone?? Or at least make it screen-lock only when the phone naturally dims at 3 minutes??
Any suggestions would be great
THANKS!!

bump? someone?

Lock screen page

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??

Delayed Lock Screen

With my settings set to Automatically lock (immediately after sleep) and power button instantly locks with a visible patter screen lock, my Nexus 7 on wake-up [pushing the power button immediately] either right after an invalid pattern code (where device then sleeps) or waiting a few seconds with no activity until the device sleeps (where the Nexus 7 fades to a black screen) will have a delay in bringing up the lock screen OR sort of flicker presenting some sort of black and white bar lines background at the bottom half of the screen for a split second before bringing up the lock screen. In essence, when waking the phone from sleep, the screen "glitches" for like a fraction of a second where the "glitch" is a set of white lines that flash on the screen before the lock screen appears on the display. This "rarely" occurs and has to be done fairly quickly, but I have seen it a few times as I continuously tried it over and over again; you can blame my OCD Anyway... I was wondering if this is normal or it is in fact a defect? It doesn't seem to affect the performance of the device itself.
The following are video recordings of the "issue":

Does this happen for anyone else?
Thanks in advance!

[Q] want swipe lockscreen when tablet wakes

My Tab 4 is password-protected with a 30-minute delay. But when the tablet wakes, I'd like it to always go to the lock screen, in order to protect against waking accidentally if the tablet gets jostled in its carrier. The lock screen should just require a swipe, unless 30 minutes have elapsed since last use.
That's the way it works by default on my Android phone, but I can't find any setting to make my Tab 4 work that way. Instead, if it's been less than 30 minutes, the tablet wakes directly to the home screen, or whatever screen was last in use (after 30 minutes, I get the lock screen with password, which is appropriate).
Is there any way to get the desired lock-screen behavior on the Tab 4?

How to bypass lock screen when trusted with smart lock?

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.
