are you using lightflow or any other battery monitoring app?

'alarm' means a wake lock caused by a notification. If your led flashes a wake lock is always caused (on any phone).
It's part of the reason samsung never included led notification lights until now.
As for the battery monitor wake lock I am almost certain its the better battery stats app that causes that.
If you want true reflection of wake locks change the preferences in that app so it shows you time spent in wake lock while screen is off. Any wake lock while the screen is on doesn't really effect the battery anyway...

My screen stays on when plugged to a charger or the computer, is anyone else having this problem? It seems like it just started happening all of a sudden

Go under app settings, development, and make sure the keep screen on option is off.

Do you have the option ticked not to turn off screen when charging? If the phone is in debug mode and you flick open the notification menu, you can change some debug settings. One of them being screen sleep while charging.
Sorry to hijack the post, but I love my screen being on while plugged-in but is there a way to prevent it from dimming. I want it to stay at max without dimming, and it drives me crazy.
thanks

Whenever I watch netflix on my note the menu soft key lights never turn off. Does this happen with any body else and is there a way to turn them off?

Only way to turn them off is going to phone settings and display and then touch lights and click never.

You could use screen filter from the market and leave the filter super high and check the soft key back light toggle
The theater leaves them on so you can get to the restroom safely.
I use the Screen Off and Lock app to turn off the screen without fumbling for the power button. For some reason it doesn't work properly on the S3 - it turns off the screen briefly but then the screen turns itself back on.
Does anyone know of a homescreen widget or app which will turn off the S3 screen?
I also install it, on my device its set the screen off, then it came back for a second and then off.

Yes, that's exactly what it's doing on mine now.
Unfortunately, it will only work properly if the lock screen security > none
Tested with Swype, face and pin. Obviously the screen security prevents it from staying off.

That's exactly how my settings are - the screen still switches itself on again momentarily after tapping then Screen Off and Lock app. I've now tried a couple of the other free "screen off" apps and widgets and they do exactly the same thing, so maybe there's some sort of issue with an API in the S3?

In the menu I posted, select "none", then it will screen off properly. The app (and others) obviously have issue with TW lockscreen with any setting other than "none".

Why not? Read my previous posts.
With lock set to "none", the app works properly, with any type of lock, the screen will flicker from off to lockscreen on.
This proves the app is not totally compatible with SGS3 TW lockscreen.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
is there a regular option or a trick (no app) to adjust the time the S3 lockscreen keeps lit? i am on latest SGS3 stock rom 4.0.4 (no root) and the lockscreen shuts off after about 5 seconds - which is far too short for my liking.
thanks!
am i the only one having this issue? (sigh)
I think this is normal, why do you have to look your lockscreen more than 5 sec. Mine is like yours. Just pres home button after 4 sec and you will have 5 seconds more.

well, i know it's "normal" and no bug. but it annoys me and even more so that there's no option in this "super phone" that lets me adjust basic lock screen settings. i guess this is an oversight by the devs.
Try other lockscreen apps

I'm sure there is if you have a rooted device. This is just how android works, doesnt matter what company, what phone, what version of android. Been like this since the beginning.
I run mine all night charging as my main alarm.
If your rooted then check out a dimmer app for root you can turn them off completely with root dimmer.

Try “dock clock". Put it on my wife's rezound for her to use as clock/alarm. Soft keys are off while in use. You can set it to activate automatically when plugged in after a specific time (I set for 8:00pm). That way the app automatically opens when you plug it in at night but NOT during the day. Works excellent with or without dock.

nice app, thanks
The app 'screen filter' can turn off the keyboard backlight with the caveat that you need to turn the screen off then back on after starting it.
I am going to try out dock clock. I like gentle alarm as my alarm, but no reason it needs to also be the foreground clock.
