not sure about the lock screen issue. but the power options you are talking about are fine..think of them as shortcuts

what he was trying to say was that when he presses the power key the phone goes to sleep..but when he wakes it, it goes directly to the home screen and doesnt go to the lock screen.
the second thing he asked was why he gets those 3 options when he presses the power key for 2 seconds.
ok then for first issue, lockscreen is set to none?

Does it happen on bone stock ROM? Have you tried flashing a stock ROM and peforming factory reset? Dont install any apps and see if you still have this behavior? Could be one of rogue apps...

did you download a 3rd part app by any chance? if so try deleting it.. if not did you change anything within the settings or if this happened randomly try doing a factory reset it might help..
This is what happens when you mess around your phone without knowing what you are doing.

ok i see you are using the rom foxhound..thats why when you press the power button for 2 seconds the extended power menu pops up..its built into the rom nothing wrong with your phone.
Now to fix lock screen try this. Go to Settings > Security > Set Up Screen Lock..there choose whichever type of lock screen you want

I think he's saying that when he holds the power key for 2 seconds he doesn't get those options.
Anyway, his 2 problems (no lockscreen + power button not showing options) were common on the S2 when ICS was released. It happened mainly to people with corrupt imei. Turned out the keystr file was missing in the efs folder and copying one or creating a new one fixed the issue.
OP, if you still have this problem let me know and I will attach the needed file.
First check if you have the keystr file as shown below. Use root explorer or es file explorer to check.

Means you are probably missing your keystr file. The fix has been discussed dozens of times already. Please search for this. FYI, you will need root to implement the fix.

Hi, is there a way to dim the notification led bar and to keep it on at all times or adjust how long it stays on for? Because when using the phone in the dark its a mission to find the back or home button.
Thanks
Try with light flow from market.
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
I was also thinking of doing something with the bar light. During the day it's useless to keep it on, it's just using battery for nothing. It would be nice ti have a feature of turning off during the day and on in the evening. It would save a lot of battery also... I would prefer turning off for good and save battery.

they are just LED lights, barely use any battery anyway.
I think it should turn on almost every new notification it gets. For E-mal/Gmail, message, etc.
I have found an app called Adjbrightness that disable the soft keys but you need root. I don't have rooted my Xperia S so i will use the app called screen filter that have an option that disable the soft keys. I have putted the filter to 100% so it won't change my screen brightness. I will check if there some battery % saving or not.

It does work in disabling the belts LEDs without root however I found it lagged my phone pretty bad, I haven't tested battery usage either.
I have a stupid question. How do I get the notification led bar to come on when I have a missed call, email, etc? All I have working is a blinking blue led light on the top left corner.
Thanks.
It would indeed be nice if you can just set for how long it must be On.
For now, gently tap the camera button, when you are in the dark, and the belt Leds are off

I use Screen Filter to disable the soft keys light andt here is no lag. I can't say if is saving battery or not but I like the lights off because the lights from the bar can be very annoying sometime.

The code to increase or decrease LDE lights is somewhere on the software. As well as pulse effect like when we connect the charger.
I will try to get in touch with a rom cooker and see if we can get to the source code. If I get my hands on it I will try to create a simple app to regulate the LEDs manually. Maybe activate the pulse effect for missed notifications.

That would actually be pretty amazing. It would be nice to have control of the bar, because I love the bar on this phone. Even having it for just missed calls I would be ecstatic .

I am up for it
Edit: Main problem right now that I am facing is not even eclipse related. I wonder how are we gona be able to override the system values, for example the max current can be changed and it stays there untouched, that way we can completely disable the LEDs lets say for the day time, but, I havent found a way to override the brightness, it goes from 0-255 , 0 being OFF , 255 Full brightness, whenever the screen goes off/on the system automatically re-adjusts the brightness levels without changing the max current values.
Lets imagine, I wanna show off and have my LED shining in the evening even with the screen OFF, i managed to do it once, but it was a matter of time until the system override my values :/
Edit2: I just came up with a solution while writing my 1st edit, and it works lol... I will get on eclipse tomorrow!

Ok, this is annoying. I have my display timeout set to 5 minutes, but when I use the phone functions, the screen timeout is 30 seconds and there seems to be no way to change it. This is very annoying when trying to call an IVR and the screen keeps turning off.
Anyone know how I can fix this issue?
Thanx,
Rob
Thinking you might be able to go into call settings, and turn off your proximity sensor.(ICS rom)...not sure on GB.
this will allow the screen to stay on. and If the screen is touched, will refresh the 5 minute screen off time set by the OS.........
maybe......
try and report.....g
Already tried that with no success. I am using the ICS update. The problem existed in both versions though.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that experiences this....

No, your not, but it sounds like your calling style may be a bit unique....long calls etc.
I'm sure more folks will chime in soon.
Sorry I could'nt help you.....g
What case and screen protector are you using? The sensor has to be uncovered. Its in the top right corner.
No case and no screen protector. Same issue on 2 friend's Notes'. It is a bug, just want to know if someone has found/fixed it.

Just because you don't like the way it works doesn't mean it's a bug. I'm sure the intention is to prevent accidental touches when a phone call is ongoing. It's more likely just not implemented well.
At any rate, try this:

Thats a cool app. I was just getting annoyed about the blippin' screen going off while reading ( I'm slow ).

I'm not sure that everyone reading this is quite understanding the problem.
Here's the easiest example:
1 - Phone yourself and leave a long detailed voicemail
2 - Call in to check that voicemail...but on speakerphone
3 - While listening to the voicemail, the screen will go dim after 30 seconds, regardless of your backlight setting.
The problem is that it's annoying to have to turn the screen back on (press the power button) just to press the on-screen buttons to save/delete the message. The same problem can occur while navigating any "touch tone" prompt system.
It would be nice if the phone function would follow the same backlight timeout settings as the rest of the phone.
Is that a power saving setting?
I understand the issue; it happens to me, too. And I also find it annoying.
It happens on my friend's Droid Razr Maxx, too.
OOOhhhhhhh....good thought !!
gonna try it now....g
@ RC...
I don't think so because I have the power saving stuff off. I'm amazed to be the first to complain about this. I suffered through this with GB, hoping that ICS would fix it, but to no avail. That PowerOn app is nice. I'm trying it now. Thanx for the suggestion. The right fix would be to set the phone app to follow the screen timeout.
Yeah, Rbeaubien is right-- the power saving settings didn't do it either.
The app that lactardjosh suggested is the only working solution.
Edit: I tried the app. It was a little work to set it up, and it works perfect. Thanks Josh!
Glad it worked.
The proximity sensor still works properly with that app enabled?
This has been driving me crazy. It does it even when not on a call or VM. Just leave the dialer open. Feels like it shuts off in a couple seconds. I make a ton of calls from my phone for work and it drives me insane that the dialer shuts off if I'm taking a while to put in the number.

The ap Screebl works the best for me. Once you set the orientation the way you want, the light stays on till your phone goes below that point.

Its not a bug. The screen timeout does not work with what you have set. It defaults back to the 30 seconds to keep from accidentally hitting buttons while on calls. Samsung will tell u the same thing. It happens on my note infuse and skyrocket. Also on the inspire when i had it. ITS NOT A BUG!

Ok, it's not a bug, it's a POORLY implemented feature..... The proximity sensor is the feature that will keep you from hitting buttons accidentally.
And the ScreenOn app doesn't work all the time when on battery. Still annoying. Better than without though...
Hi all
Sometimes the screen on my i9205 dims the screen down to maybe 50% brightness even though I have manually set it to 100% and the screen timeout to 10min. When checking the brightness slider it's still at 100% and there's nothing I can do to make the screen bright again besides rebooting the phone. Anyone else seeing this "Dim Bug"?

How often does the screen dim? How much battery is left when it dims? The next time it dims check what apps are running in the background.

I did a factory reset to see if it was something I installed. After booting the phone and setting it up I went to settings to change the screen mode from Standard to Dynamic (or something like that) and then it immediately happened.
So I did another factory reset and now I haven't entered the screen mode settings page at all and I'll see if it still will happen.

It depends on what you are viewing but it can explain why the screen dims as content changes.

This issue I was having the first day I owned the device. I changed a few settings rebooted and it's not happened since.
Put it on dynamic display turning off the automatic adjusting. Turn auto brightness on.
Then pull the notification down and put the brightness bar setting manually on +5 , leaving auto brightness ticked though. (See photo below)
Then at night when you want it dimmer, slide the brightness bar to -5 .
Hope this works for you all to.....let me know

This is annoying as hell... I thought I had it fixed when I did a factory reset and then never went into the Screen mode settings but it just happened again as I was browsing using Boat browser. Screen got dim and when I hit the home button going to the home screen the screen was still dim. No way to get the brightness up again besides to wait for a couple of minutes or to reboot.
Using the Auto+5 setting is not an option since it's not as bright as the non-auto full brightness.

Weird I've not experienced this problem since the above changed. But I am on MEA which is an older stock Rom
Hey,
So I'm on the. 510 firmware and have had no screen issues etc before.
I recently unchecked the Optimize Backlight display setting - big mistake. My phone completely froze and took me awhile before it would even power on again and when it finally did it kept on blacking out.
Finally managed to quickly get into the settings to disable the Optimize Backlight and then reboot.
Question: what can we do about this? I do not like how the screen looks with Optimize.Backlight on but I can not turn it off as I then won't be able to use the phone.
So frustrating.

What exactly is "Optimised Backlight" supposed to do? I'm not game to turn it off now.
My friend u can tick/untick Optimize Backlighting, don't forget to restart you device. (Just remember it will take 1-2 min to restart your phone).
Abour freez ...I'm sure it was a coincidence

Thanks but it is not coincidence. Many others have been reporting issues with this setting and i have had NO issues with my device at all, then as soon as i turn off the optimize backlight, my phone starts acting really weird.
It makes it very unstable when it is off, the phone randomly blacks out and refuses to turn and when it does turn on, just behaves like there is a problem.
Point is, this setting and a bug like this should not have made it past the approval process especially because i had no issues before.
Its poor from sony and just sloppy. Almost every firmware update has brought along its own set of problems.

It is supposed to save some battery life by adjusting the screen depending on what content is on the screen.
It basically makes the screen more dim, lower contrast and worse saturation. Its a ****ty setting to be honest. Excuse my language

You need to restart device after each time you check/unchecked optimize backlighting to see effect.

Yes I know and I have done this.
It's best just to leave that setting along. Nothing but trouble.
Sony needs to fix this.

I think on the next update. Sony will fix this issue by just RENAME the "Optimized backlighting" option to "PREVENT SOD ON REBOOT" and make a widget to the desktop. So people will remember to tick it before rebooting their phone. That's all hahaa

I'm on the .526 firmware, and when I turn on or off the optimised backlighting option, the screen blacks out for like 1-2 seconds, and then it works fine. The phone doesn't behave any differently.
I haven't tried rebooting yet with the optimised backlighting on or off.
Since you mention that you're on .510 firmware, maybe updating to .526 will fix this problem.
p.s. my xperia .526 is from HK.

On .526 TW unticked optimized backlight, had fake hang at first reboot then no SOD since yesterday. I performed the update after a wipe of data (with Flashtool wipe data automatically). Some people still complain about SOD.

Please try below and report back if the problem still exist.
Go to Settings - Display - Brightness.
Tick back Adapt to lighting conditions. (If you off previously)
Un-tick Optimized backlight.
Shutdown the phone.
On back the phone, did the fake hang appear?
One success login to phone, immediate locking the screen by pressing the power button, did the Screen of Dead (SOD) happen?
