​U can download the stock rom and install via odin.before that take backup of ur internal storage.i think this problem will resolve aftrwards.or else before try to reset the settings,if its not resolved then go with stock firmware

very dim lock screen instead of completely turning off the screen

Well, my streak on 2.1 was doing this for a while but not anymore after a reboot: When the screen time out kicked in, the screen would not turn off, instead it would dim the screen but I could still see the Beautiful Home Clock. You still need to hit the power button to unlock the phone. Anyone know how I can enable this feature again?

I have the exact issue. I am running 2.1 on att dell streak.
At first I thought i fixed it, i turned the style lock feature off. it started to turn dark for a couple hours then reverted back to doing the dim on lock.
i sometimes have issues d/c calls because its dim and un-responsive.
I have dont alot of searching on this matter and dont know what to think.
I also have this problem... reading over at modaco, there's a bunch of other people with the same problem. They're saying if you turn off wifi before locking the phone, it doesn't occur. Mine only seems to have the problem every once in awhile though, so I haven't been able to test it myself yet. You might want to try it and see what happens.
Ah ok, i went back and searched and found the post you were talking about.
i would post the link but new users cant link, its under 2.1 bugs in modaco streak forums.
Too bad that turning wifi off for me isnt really an option because usually it wont let me turn it back on

[Q] Wi-Fi won't turn on

Hi my friend received her galaxy s4 this evening and for some reason her Wi-Fi or Bluetooth won't turn on, she touches the wee circle to turn it on and it just won't turn green, or turn on just keeps saying Wi-Fi turning on but doesn't do nothing

Yeah I tried that didn't work, but my friend just phoned me saying it's working now after a fully charged battery, I thought it was very strange it had about 60% on it
Try to remove the batterij for like 2 min. and put it back in. Start the phone, hopefully it works again. However this is the second time I got this problem (with the stock rom). I kinda hate Samsung right now.

4.4.2 bug fix??

Bug fix ??
When updated to 4.4 on verizon I noticed that the screen doesnt lock or go back to the slide setting I set it to after a missed call. This is a headache because screen stays on, it makes me accidentally open apps and make calls, and runs battery fast because screen stays on. For those who have updated already does 4.4.2 fix this? Also is the lowest brightness still super high? Or did it get fixed back to how it was on 4.2.2? Thanks in advance.

You post your question, and then minutes later post ..... as if we don't care about you. Pipe-down, please.
To answer your question, I haven't had the issue you're saying. The screen locks back automatically on mine, and furthermore, the Active Notifications shows I've missed a call. Check your dialer settings, reboot your phone, and worst case scenario, FR the phone.

screen will not timeout.

I have screen inactive settings set to 15 seconds. But my screen will not turn off on its own no matter what. I've tried all inactive times and none work. If I get a text my screen turns on and stays on till I shut it off. This is killing my screen and battery. Anyone know if this is fixable? Should I try factory reset? Thanks
Just in case anyone has this issue I learned a temp fix. Backup and restore and then reset settings. But the issue just arised again today. So it's only temp.

If you have the Dev option on to 'Never Sleep' then that's why. Otherwise I have no idea.

Nope. it's super annoying. And restarting phone won't fix it. All I change is ring tone and text tone. Takes about 3 days to start acting up again and it really kills my battery with my phone on in my pocket.

You don't have a Pebble do you? I found a setting with YANC Pro that was keeping the screen on

[Q] Screen flashes on unlock (lollipop)

I tried searching if this happens to anybody else, but couldn't find it. Since I updated to lollipop (I put original polish rom first via odin) whenever my auto brightness is turned on, when I wake the phone using home key or power button, my screen turns on with full brightness for a half second or something like that, and than goes back to normal.... I thought it was a bug on polish ROM, so I flashed austrian rom, but no improvement. Now I have custom TW rom, and it is still the same. When I turn auto brightness off, it doesn't happen. So I suspect it to be that screen turns before the light sensor on unlock, and it is set to full brightness always. is there some file I can edit, so screen starts at lowest brightness or delay screen start for half a second so the sensor can start first.
It is killing me when I get a message while sleeping in a dark room, and I want to check it, it blinds me so I wake up, and can't go back to sleep later!!!
LOL I have the same problem, which is extremely irritating to say the least, but I had no idea that it had to do with auto brightness! I am on latest AryaMod, which is stock TW based ROM, so I guess its a problem of all the TW releases?
Don't know! I will ask this in AryaMod topic and see whether dev will be more than kind to provide us a solution. Thanks for creating the topic, I had thought about it a lot of times, but was never intrigued enough.

I tried flashing 5.0.1, but it didn't fix it, I also have a problem with screen not turning off during calls now, which rom are you using?
