Maybe you have something runnibg in the background this isnt letting your screen time out?

Go to settings/device/display if your screen timeout is set correctly i.e. 2 minutes etc. check reading mode make sure it is turned off as well.

I de-rooted yesterday (Froyo!) for the first time and out of principle want to see how long I can go. One of the only thing that I missed at the moment was screen captures that I need for the small amount of apps I have developed or plan on developing.
I wasn't aware of this ability in the SDK. That makes sense now.
I accidentally did a screen capture today...the phone was on the car charger and I was trying to turn the screen off, I pushed the power button and heard the shutter sound. May be a glitch of somekind
Btw, I am not rooted

if you hold the soft back key and press the power button it will take a screen shot rooted or not. its a froyo feature thats always been there

Ive tried researching this but I have came up empty handed. It appears once my screen is off google talk is logged out. How do I keep google talk always logged in?
Thanks for any help!

I really hope this isnt a wide spread thing. I use Google talk heavily. I cant afford for it to disconnect upon my screen timing out. I havent used it since I activated my phone to test though.
Maybe check under the power saver option in settings. There is an option to turn off background data when the screen turns off. Maybe that's it?

I will try that setting out and report back

Just uncheck auto away status and it will stop logging out.

Is anyone else having an issue where google talk won't load for them? I touch the icon and it looks like it loads for a second then flashes back to the app drawer. I tried clearing the application data, didn't help, and of course I can't uninstall/reinstall

Yup, I have to restart the phone to get it working. I also notice that Restart does NOT restart the phone for me. It powers it down.

I have both of those exact same problems. Hopefully, the next software update will fix these issues.
After I lock my screen its automaticly switch on like when I press the power one.
Did anyone faced this problem?
I tried factory reset root and installing stock again but still have this problem. Also no apps to switch it on or other mods

Maybe a sensor is faulty that is why it's waking up the phone. I haven't heard anyone else having this problem

I wear carpenter jeans because I can't stand a cell phone holster. Only problem with this S4 is I put phone upside down in the pocket. When I go to get phone from pocket my thumb lands on the HOME button and turns display on. Kind of annoying. Is there any way to turn that off and just use the power button on the side?

I'm new to the Galaxy S4 and got stuck with vruame7 so I can't install a custom rom yet.
You can edit /system/usr/keylayout/gpio_keys.kl to erase the WAKE after home
Original: "172 HOME WAKE"
Change it to: "172 HOME"
If that doesnt solve your problem try adding WAKE back and adding dropped as such: "172 HOME WAKE_DROPPED"

Hey guys,
a week ago i've noticed that my power button is a bit too sensitive, now i'm just touching it like the homescreen and the display turns off. Sometimes it stays pushed and reboot for several times, can somebody help me? Please don't give the answer: "Send it to Samsung" or something else, i haven't got guarantee anymore, so i want to fix it myself.:good:
Then you need to dismantle the phone see the SGS3 tear-down via Google .

To dismantle the phone and fix the power button? Obviously it is some kind of hardware challenge and not software, hence open up the phone is needed I guess.
