Hi,
After rooting, I noticed that the screen timeout function is no longer working properly.
My settings are set to have the screen turn off after 30 secs of being idle but I have notice this working only at times.
Anyone else experiencing this with their atrix rooted?
Thanks,
Harry

I have tried to search the forum, but could not find any thread. When I am on a phone call, the display/screen turns off and I am using speaker phone or bluetooth. In the call settings, the turn on proximity sensor is disabled or off.
When I am in a phone call, I want to see the screen turn on to see details and very seldom put the phone to my ear.
Hopefully, somebody can help me resolve my problem.
Thank you..
Maybe changing the screen sleep time to a, max of 10 minutes?

With the sensor turned off, it sounds like its the standard screen timeout kicking in. I use Screen On, which overrides the timer for apps you specify, including an active call.
This bugs me too.
Anyone have a Tasker profile they could share for this?
My screen timeout is set to 10 minutes, since I thought that was the case. But as soon as I am on a call,, between 15-30 seconds, the screen is black and I have to press the power button to bring back the display.
Thanks for the advise and hope somebody can help us..
You could still try Screen On. When you bring up its list of apps, "Active Call" is the very first checkbox. Just make sure you also check the "enable" checkbox at the top-left of the list, too.
Your screen turns off during a call to conserve battery power. You don't reallt need the screen on while the phone is to your ear anyways. The proximity sensor detects this, and turns the screen off. As far as I know, there is no way to turn it off.

Most people use a build prob tweak called
ro.lge.proximity.delay=25
mot.proximity.delay=25
Here's a thread related to the issue,,mine works fine after tweaks,

No go using this app. I tried on speakerphone and it still shuts the screen off.

I used AppAutoSettings to keep my screen on when on a call on my GSII.

Interesting. Sure enough, I tried turning the prox sensor off and enabled "active calls" in Screen On, rebooted, and it still turned off.
The title probably says it all. Now before I get attacked saying there are already options for it... you're only half wrong.
There are options for missed calls, emails, and something else. What I am looking for is and app or mod that will allow the back led to function for messaging, Facebook, Skype. That sort of thing.
I have 0 experience in programming and wouldn't even know where to begin. I frequently have my phone face down as I keep it in a case with holster combo most of the time. It would be awesome if that led worked for all events so I don't have to constantly check my phone.
I have verizon, I'm not 100% sure if the att, t-mobile and international versions can do the same.
Asking a dev to help me out and I hope I am not the only person requesting this.
Thanks.

Are you rooted? Have you tried something like lightflow?

Not rooted. I've looked at some of the market apps to control led's. But most say they don't work at all on lg devices besides the nexus

[REQ] Rear notification light (power button) for all notifications?
Didn't get much attention. Hoping this thread is more successful.

Got Light Flow to activate power button led on incoming text. It just required turning on the 1st and last LEDs on the list of additional LEDs found by Light Flow (not sure which one did the trick) and setting Light Flow to work via root access.
But there were problems After receiving the text message and seeing the power button led illuminate, the screen would not respond to Knock On and would turn on for a moment upon pressing the power button but turn off almost immediately.

Well thanks for being brave and taking a hit for the team. Hope you didn't have to restore from recovery to get beyond that? I suspect one of those LEDs is the one Promising.

I had the exact same problem when I tried using Light Flow to setup different color LEDs. Thankfully, if you can actually get the screen to stay on you can uninstall (or change settings) Light Flow to fix the problem. I had someone call me so the screen would stay on.
I use the stock text app Google Messages. When the phone is sitting next to me, and I get a new text, all I get is the sound of the text beeping, but the screen doesn't wake up. The screen should wake up when that text comes in. What Setting do I need to change to make the screen wake ?
I feel so bad. I really tried looking into this when I saw your post over there. The only thing I'm reading is that it'll be in the messenger app setting. This seems like such an easy thing but I can't figure it out! I always keep all my notifications off my lock screen and I hate my screen turning on for anything but calls.
I really hope someone has an idea!

Hi,
I've noticed that if chrome is open in foreground, the screen won't turn off itself after 30 sec like it happens with other apps.
Any idea how can I solve it? It's really annoying to remember to lock the phone if I leave it after checking something on Chrome
