We just have the normal sleep delay : Settings / Display / Sleep
That's for the confirmation

I have recently installed cyanogen on my desire and have found the mod to be an absolute joy to use. The one irritation however has been the automatic screen dimming. Every 6 or 7 seconds or so the screen dims itself. This can become very annoying when reading long messages or any other text. I have looked on lots of threads but have found no answer to my question. Surely there must be a simple solution to turn off this automatic dimming setting?
Thanks

I think....(not exactly sure) but that may be apart of the actual rom, if there is no setting under display then its probaly built in that way. Under settings/display you can change the screen time out if that help
reply
I've played around with all the settings myself and have so far been unsuccessful. Its not a problem really, just a bit annoying. I just find it hard to believe such an awesome mod doesn't have a simple off switch.
If anyone knows of a way to extend the screen dimming then that will help too.
I think what you're looking for is the Sleep setting. Go under Settings -> Display -> Sleep, and select a longer time interval if needed. Your current setting might be set to sleep after 15 seconds, causing the screen to dim at 6-7 seconds. Change it to maybe 1-2 minutes.
yes you can. Put the widget 'Power Control" on the home screen and you can do it easily from there. Thats how i do it.

Hey there.
One thing I remember from Gingerbread is how, when on lockscreen, the screen would turn off after some 7 secs. So say I wanted to check the clock I could just turn on the screen and put the phone away again. On JB it seems like it uses the same timeout setting as the rest of the system, one I keep at 1 min..
Is there a way to make to make it seperate? I want the screen to turn off after 10 secs when Im on the lockscreen, so I dont have to press the, quite, inconviniently placed power button on my phone, each time (seeing as I got tap2wake on my phone)

You can try my app, KinScreen. It allows setting a different timeout for the lockscreen. However, the lockscreen timeout doesn't seem to have an effect in KitKat (where the default is 10s).

Have you found a way to do this? My new 4.3 JB smartphone used to have a lockscreen screen timeout of 5 seconds, which I liked, but somehow it is now something like 30 seconds... which is TOO long for my liking... I've tried any combination of settings to revert this but with no luck...
BTW, 30 seconds is not even my screen timeout ... I have it set to 1 minute. So... I have absolutely no clues...

Only way I could come up with was to use Tasker. Make a profile that does when on lockscreen timeout is 7 secs and when not its 1 minute.
Not very ideal.

Can you share how was your Tasker profile created? I remember trying to do a similar profile on my previous smartphone (actually it was running KitKat) and I couldn't figure a way for a profile to detect lockscreen for the timeout to be set differently.
Also you can't set it below 7 seconds....
Interestingly enough, I suspect Tasker was the reason why I lost my "short" lockscreen screen timeout in the first place on my new smartphone

That was indeed the trick. To detect the lockscreen. I came across this plugin:
https://bitbucket.org/laceous/android-atlockscreen/wiki/Home
AtLockScreenTaskerConditionPlugin.1.0.0.apk
AtLockScreenTaskerSettingPlugin.1.0.1.apk
Those you'll need. It runs a background service, without battery drain ofcourse, that uses something 4 mb ram.
Attached is the entire "project" you can import to get something that works.

Yes we want to know how! What Android version? I haven't been able to change the lockscreen timeout on KitKat from the default 10s (higher or lower) on stock Nexus 5 ROM.

So basically this is set by using two profiles:
. Event Screen on -» Display timeout 7 seconds
. Event Screen unlocked -» Display timeout 60 seconds
The only caveat I can think of is that instantly lock after sleep should be activated to prevent false positives.
Now if only I could set the timeout to a value lower than 7 seconds...

Cool.
However, the reason I didn't go with something like this is because there's times where I'll have the lockscreen disabled thru a widget OR if I wake up right after it had turned the screen off (and there's a time of 5-15 secs before actually locking the phone). That would result in having an extremely fast dispaly timeout at times where it's not actually wanted. The way I've gone about it ensures, for the most part, that it only applies when locked.
Like the title says:
I've updated my device from 129 to 137 firmware with Firmware Finder. After update I noticed long delay, when I try to unlock the device with fingerprint, with Always on display on. When AOD is turned off, all is fine? I managed factory data reset, but it didn't help. Anyone else?
I'm on the same update c636, but no delays.
I'm on 137 (C432) and also noticed huge delay with unlock/screen wake up when AOD is on. I experienced more bugs(?) on this rom.
A friend of mine encountered this bug on his mate 10 pro C432 after updating to 137 firmware. While the AOD is on, press the power button / scan your finger -> after that, it takes about 6 seconds for the lock screen / home screen to show up.
I disabled "accessibility shortcut" in "accessibility" in settings and the bug disappeared. Turning the option back on again didn't make the bug reappear...
Maybe try the about suggestion... it might fix it for you too.
Edit: the bug is back. It seems it has nothing to do with the above. Apparently, sometimes the bug is present, and sometimes (for about an hour) it just goes away by itself...

Yeah, found it, but it was already disabled, when the bug appeared. Turning it on and off doesn't fix it...
Hi, any solution ?
Nope, waiting for next update, hope it will fix this issue.
Bump...anyone fix this super annoying issue yet?
I disabled AOD to get around mine. When I was getting this bug, you could hear the unlock sound but the AOD would still display. I would lock with the power button and then unlock with fingerprint again and it would work.
Thanks, gave that a try looks to have sped up unlock! Now if I could only get HBO, showtime, movie anywhere to work...
Yay, they fixed it on 142 ?
Developer options may be the answer
Hi,
I recently updated to 363 (185) on my P10 plus
Lag returned - i previously had the problem that I was able to fix by disabling the accessibility shortcut above.
Current fix - worked for me:
settings -> system -> Developer options
Disable the following (update should have them set as 0.5x)
- Window Animation Scale
- Transition Animation Scale
- Animator Duration Scale
Hope this helps everyone on the Mate also
please let me know if it does.
Thanks
I've tried the prior fixes, and they don't seem to want to work.
I just changed my animation and duration scaling.
I'm running the most recent beta of Lineage OS from OpenKirin.
It's stable, and works just fine. This is more of a nuisance than a real problem.
I'll let you know if the fix applies to this build.
Thanks for the information!!
No joy, so I'll wait to see if it gets addressed in the next betas with OpenKirin.
Hi,
Is there a way to deactivate the fade in animation when waking up the screen, i find it very annoying . I like it to be instantaneous.
I know is possible to reduce the speed animation in developer options but it does mess with other animations not only the screen wake up.
This annoys me, too. There is a slow fade in when hitting the power button to go to the lock screen and using the fingerprint sensor to go straight to the home screen.
I believe this is my only gripe with the device. My Mate 9 was instantaneous on both fronts.
you must ctivate "developer options" menu (it is hidden under "about phone", you can easily find instructions for activation)
and there you shall find the settings for all parts of animation (transition, etc); if you set them on zero, then everything will become instant-quick, no fade-in etc

As I said in my previous post, the problem when reducing speed animation is that other system transitions like multitasking and dropping notifications panel are also affected and look horrible.
I dont know why samsung dont offer the option of deactivating this annoying fade in

As far as I know sammy are the only ones to implement this "feature" in their smartphones ....
I would have switched to another phone juste because of that "feauture" but there are many good things in the s9+ that make me keep it.
Can anyone tell me how to change the screen timeout/sleep time on the M5? I've tried display, battery and security settings but it doesn't appear to be in any of them. It's a real pain trying to read emails, news, flipboard etc with the standard (30 seconds?) timeout.

Just discovered it is under Display/Sleep. But Sleep option is greyed out.
*UPDATE* Aha! Power saving mode was on. It must be enabled by default because I can't think why I would've enabled it. Sorted now.

I've had the CMR-W09B for a week now and found that when I change the sleep time it always reverts to the default 30 seconds after a while. Power saving mode not active. Installed Screebl Pro to manage timeout, but unlike my many other devices using the app, it seems to be overridden by the system and doesn't work. Whether Screebl is active or not, or what I set the timeout to, the timeout returns to 30 seconds.
This happening to anyone else, or am I just special?
