[Question] Using Chrome screen timeout is Ignored - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

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

Phone keeps locking

I'm using dagr8s alpha 2 and my phone keeps locking. Like for example when I click a notification in my status bar my phone will lock for some reason. Also it happens sometimes when I click on an app. But the Strange thing is that it is not fully locked. Like I can just press the lock button and it will take me to the home screen. Also another thing is that whenever I enable blue tooth a pop up comes asking me to use car mode. I don't know why this is happening it's kind of annoying. Is this a bug with a rom. Is anybody else experiencing this?

Rebooting in pocket!

I have noticed that my SGSIII is rebooting in my pocket so upon investigation it is being caused by the power button being pressed for a long period. Even if the screen is locked it's still active and reboots.
Is there a way of disabling this??

Yeah I'm having this issue too. Quite annoying!
On top of that it seems to be frequently unlocking in my pocket and launching all sorts of apps. I have a few pictures of the inside of my pocket too
Setting a PIN lock has stopped the random unlocking but the frequent reboots are still a problem.

I suggest you guys install widgetlocker app. It's phenomenal! You can delay your pin locking, and for safety reasons, but still, screen will be locked as per normal use and you'll have to drag icon to unlock it. Very good application and very helpful.

Thanks Bednim. I should have stated though - I already have Widget Locker installed. Still getting the random unlocks though.
Also Widget Locker unfortunately doesn't stop the reboots.

That's very strange... Since I got widget locker, my phone finally stays locked without ringing people while in pocket so I would thought that this would sort your problem?

I do have the same porblem and by using secure pattern or pin the pocket unlocking problem been fixed, but rebooting problem still.
any updates about this problem? or work around other than widgets?
Yeah PIN lock stopped the pocket pictures and random app launches for me but still getting the random reboots reasonably frequently. It's quite annoying tbh. The only thing stopping it being a deal breaker for me is the fact that it boots so damn quick - turns what could be a major issue into merely a mild annoyance.

I found that without a PIN or Pattern, the Notification area can be pulled down and items toggled on and off there too. I had to set a Pattern.
Widget locker is good, I bought that but haven't installed it on the S3 yet.

[Q] Screen Off Calendar Notifications

I have hunted and hunted, but can't figure this one out. On my Note 2 I could go to the stock Samsung calendar settings and turn off "Notifications While the Screen Is Off." However, on the S4 I do not see the option to turn these notifications off. I have tried different roms, etc.
I need to keep notifications on so that they sit in my notification bar when I turn the screen on (so, I can't completely turn off notifications). However, I don't want my screen turning on every 15 minutes that I have an appointment (this drains the battery pretty quick).
Anyone know what I'm talking about or what to do about it? By the way, I would go with the stock Google calendar, but like Samsung's much more.
Thanks in advance for any help.
One more try ... anyone have any suggestions? Thanks a lot.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same problem. I get the notification, but it keeps the screen on until I acknowledge. I don't usually notice until my pocket gets really warm, then I realize the screen's been on the whole time.

Loading

Hi. I'm having trouble with my v10. When I go to the home screen from what I'm doing I get "loading". Example: I'm on chrome I hit home button it goes to home screen "loading" apperes. Its so quick I can't get a screen shot of it. Idk why it keeps doing it

Well I had weather on my home screen I took it off and thought that was the problem but it wasn't. But I also don't see it as much...and yes stock launcher
Same problem. I've had the weather app on the home screen since day 1 but didn't start seeing the loading message until last week when I was playing around with my lock screen settings.
I turned off fingerprint lock and changed my knock code a couple times and then changed my mind and turned the fingerprint back on.
I've been getting the loading message randomly since then.
What the heck? It's strange.

I think it's when you're in an app for a long time and the home screen is cleared out of the ram. When you go into home it has to reload. Just a guess..

how many apps do you have running, i have never seen this but i greenify everything thats not lg and my keyboard i actually dont even have a lag from when i hit home button to when i see the home animation flipping my apps across my back ground. but one question did you freeze or disable any lg apps, i saw on another post were they had issues with knock on and the fingerprint scanner after disabling the LG home launcher app, but they didnt have the problem when it was enabled even though they were using nova, it use to happen on my note four till turned back on the samsung apps so try that.
I have 18 apps in my home screen. And I'm running everything stock. I did disable some stuuf but nothing lgish

I haven't disabled anything. I have very few apps and I didn't have the "problem" until starting last weekend.
The only thing I can remember changing was playing around with fingerprint vs no lock screen vs only knock code. Went back to knock code with fingerprint and started seeing the loading message randomly.
I definitely don't have more open than I did a few weeks ago. I close whatever I'm not using.

I close everything all the time. I just don't understand it. I almost wanna master reset my phone But don't wanna set it all up again

I'm on my third device and two of them had this issue. I could always replicate it by going into an app like chrome, turning off the screen while still in app, turning the screen on then pressing home. Everytime I got the loading message, no matter what I did it persisted. I factory reset and flashed stock. I'm thinking it's a bug that only effects some devices.. I'm sure a software update will fix this and the smart notice app restarting like first install after every boot too.

Did anyone else that has experienced this have a G3 or 4 and transfer data through lg backup?
it might be you have to many apps running at once that arent closing. what are you using to close the apps i noticed even after doing a clear all most of the apps are still running when i have greenify close them. also this isnt exactly part of your problem but i noticed that my phone acted weird like not turning on or screen staying on after i hit the power button when i reset it. but after taking out the tmobile apps it worked fine, i think one of them is causeing a problem once you root the phone cause it was fine the first few days i had it untill i rooted it and reset it to fix the knock issues i was having. so try removing all the tmobile stuff and the blue app thing is tmobile to. i also dont have lock out on my phone anymore it only messes with my rooted apps.
Only apps I'm using regularly are chrome (usually have 4 to 5 tabs open) TuneIn Radio (only open when using it) email, text messaging, camera, gallery.
I've only installed 10 apps. TuneIn, Dropbox, Shazam, my album (Facebook picture uploads), cartwheel (from target), Verizon fios, charging report, flipp (shopping circular ads) and tapatalk.
My main home screen has the smaller weather widget (was there when I got the phone) and one of my other screens has a clock widget.
I really don't think multitasking is causing this issue. No idea what but it doesn't seem like I'm using any more than I was last week yet from the day I bought the phone up until just days ago I had never seen it.
Curiouser and curiouser.

What the heck? It's strangs.
Here's one for you :
It's not only doing it when I press the home button.
It just did it when I pressed the back soft key from the messaging app back to my app drawer.
I got the "loading" message pop-up right in front of the app drawer window.

Display Screen Keeps Opening Again After Lock

My Redmi Note 4 display screen keeps opening again after I lock my screen . Within 2 seconds after lock it opens.
MIUI Version - 11.0.2.
I have restarted my phone and same issue happens.
This is very strange if no one else is facing something like this. By any chance do you use Smart Lock..?

Now its working fine. I had deleted some files manually to free up some disk space. I think that's why it was causing the issue. After some days of usage of phone it automatically got fixed.
