[Q] Change patterlock timeout to be different from screen timeout - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I have setup my SE xperia mini pro (2.3.4) to use a patternlock screen, but I would like the timeout to be slower than the screen timeout so that I can quickly respond to replies and other stuff if the phone is in use.
So what I am looking for is a setting to do something like this:
Screen times out after two minutes and turnsoff but the pattern lock only activates after 15 minutes so that I can quickly turn the screen on when somebody instantly replies to a message.
Can I set that up? It was possible on the iphone I had before.

[Q] Home screen lock time and screen turn off time

Hi All!
I've pretty much got my Photon setup the way I want it to look and act except for the home screen lock time. I don't mind the screen turning off so quickly, but every time it turns off, the home screen locks. Is there a way to change the lock out time? The lock slider gets annoying when I have to keep doing it during text conversations or if I'm streaming Pandora in the car and I have to unlock the screen to see what's playing, etc.
Also, I have my screen turn off time set to 1 minute, but it seems like it turns off in about 15 seconds. Any help with this would be appreciated as well.
Thanks for the help!
Did you try going into Settings>Applications>Development?

[Q] How to turn on screen by touching it? (while it isn't locked yet)

Hello, I come from a Nokia 5800 and this behavior was common in CFWs, but I can't find anything similar on android yet.
What I mean is, android's behavior is something like this:
- 30 seconds go by and the screen dims.
- 5 seconds more and screen turns off.
- 2 seconds more and lockscreen kicks in.
- If you want to use the phone now, you must press power or home button.
In Nokia 5800, it was something like this, and what I'm looking on android:
- 30 seconds go by and screen dims.
- 5 seconds more and screen turns off.
- xx seconds more and lockscreen kicks in. Also (this is the important part!) if you tap the screen at this point while the screen is off, it turns on back again! Kinda like when its dim and you touch it and it lights up again. Same behavior but with screen off!
My question is, Is there some way to replicate this behavior on android?
Thanks.

Lockscreen, screen timeout modes CM 10.2.1

My lockscreen is no longer working and I have no idea why. I have a 2 min. screen timeout but when I wake up the Nook with the "N" button the screen is already unlocked (I do not have the selection checked that uses this button to unlock). It used to work fine but then more or less stopped. I've tried all kinds of combinations of settings. Sometimes it will work once after changes, but then it stops again.
I've just discovered I can manually lock the screen with a quick press of the power button. That works every time but is sort of beside the point. It should (used to) lock automatically when the screen goes off after 2 min.
And...what exactly are the "screen timeout modes"? Each of the two consists of 3 time intervals but there is no explanation or description of what they are/do. Originally they were unselected and I just had the 2 min timeout. So are these deepening levels of power saving (dim, off, sleep)?
I wish there were some kind of reference for the CM settings. It would really help a noob like me

How do I turn off the screen lock wake that happens when the phone is moved?

It's my friend's mate 10 but I have the mate 9. I think my phone used to do the same thing before I put a different ROM. With the screen locked when you handle the phone the clock appears. He doesn't like that so is there is setting to shut it off.
It's under the motion control, flip setting

Display turning off after 5 seconds after notification - How to extend the display going back to sleep too soon?

Before you tell me to look through the settings: there IS NO SETTING to force the screen to stay on for longer when receiving a notification! Nada! The sleep mode time has NOTHING to do with notifications or the lock screen.
So I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro running MIUI 12. Please let me know how to fix this, because I'm already enjoyed to death. My job involves constantly receiving notifications and I'd prefer NOT to have to constantly turn the screen back on or touch the screen every 5 seconds. When the screen is turned off and you receive a notification, the screen ALWAYS shuts off after 5 seconds without exception! You can't change this. This makes it impossible to read a notification longer than 1 syllable. It forces you to either touch the screen to prevent it from going back to sleep or click the power button to turn the screen back on. So now I'm logging for a mod or an app or something to extend this automatic 5-second interval before the screen goes back to sleep after a notification.
Looking forward to extending it to at least 30 seconds! Thanks in advance!
