Anyone else experiencing this? Screen wakes up for no reason and stays on permanently till I turn off. I'm on bad boys from BTW, thanks.

This was unchecked. Hasn't been happening this past day, I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for the tip though.

I'm running stock, and I've found the screen won't automatically turn off while charging. 53 seconds after last touching the screen it will dim (when not charging it turns off at 60 seconds as it should), but will never turn off or lock as long as it is plugged in.
I've only installed these apps: audible, Facebook, pandora, speed test, and swift key. All updates installed.
This problem even happens after a battery pull at the lock screen before I've touched the phone, it just dims the lock screen.
There is an option in settings somewhere for "Keep screen awake while charging".
On ICS its in the development submenu - I can't remember exactly where it was on GB..
If you use a power control widget, you can change the screen timeout options.
I recommend Power Controls by Painless Death.

Best free widget I've found.
Or just press the lock/power button manually once phone is plugged in?

Great thanks! I found it under applications/development. Verizon sent me a new phone today because they didn't know how to stop it, sad.

I found out how to turn off screen in or out the charger with screen always off or on. I just place my finger across the whole screen from top to bottom, it vibrates then turns off. I don't know if this has been mention yet, or if this is just me and my watch.

You didn't read the manual of the watch did you? And also this doesn't solve the display on while charging, it only dimms and doesn't turn off.

lol, it does turn off display while charging if you have the always on turn off. I know for a fact mine does.( always on means always on)

Yes obviously. That's why it's called always on. But we are trying to find a solution to turn off the screen completely when charging, whether always on is active or not
It already says this in the manual: "Dim the screen: Press your palm onto the screen until it vibrates"

I got a problem because on lock screen (screen off) when i get notification (sms or app notification or something) i have the sound but the screen is not turning on.
Also if i turn on screen then i don't have any notification shown on lock screen.
is this a bug or that's normal? i had some android phones before and they were cool but it's weird here

what do you mean by "very dim"?! too much brightness or too less?
i see mine get like "auto brightness" like see the screen set itself more brightness and less when in direct sunlight with auto mode disabled...
thats what i know so far...your problem will be like the same i think?!
Too dark, it doesn't change to brighter as it did before

but in your brightness slider you can go to 100% brightness or you only can go to 90?%?
If you can go to 100 and anyway is too dark aybe you need to replace your screen because is faulty.

ah ok, fine...only now i see what your problem, i think is the screen itself and not the second screen, if the second screen is too dim is because the sensor on the side of the top speaker can be dirty on it and it doesnt detect the light trough it...
if this happen again to see if they are some dirt on it simple with your phone locked put it under direct light above that sensor and if the second screen gets brighter then is ok, if not clean the sensor.

You are right, it happens all the time, when I move the phone away in a call, the screen doesnt light-up, I had to press the power button, until I found that whiping that sensor lights it most of the time, must have very little sensitivity

for sure its the sensor...my second screen have a delay maybe 4/5 seconds when put in sunlight to be more bright and its clean! but this second screen in V10 arent too bright like in V20.
Also my call screen doesnt show up too when i need to end a call, i need to click on power button to wake the screen but i get used to it now.
Everytime I flip my phone over the screen turns off after a couple of seconds. Really annoying in games and videos-- are there any possible fixes for this?

Maybe you have "Flip to Shhh" turned on (settings\system\gestures) which I think also turns off the screen. I had it on for a while and noticed this.

Thanks for the response!
I just realized the actual issue, uninstalling digital wellbeing from ADB caused my "flip to shh" gesture to go away, and disabling usage access just causes the same problem of turning the screen off again. My only solution is to keep digital wellbeing untouched.
