Is tjhere a way to change the screen time to automatically timeout during videos? If I fall asleep watching anything, could be Youtube or browser, I find my phone dead in the morning because the screen never times out.
I've already done the obvious, **Settings > Display > Screen timeout > .....**
Nothing changes.

I have a unrooted S3, problem is that the screen times out during flash videos on fullscreen. Any way to fix it without increasing the time-out to 10 mins?

Enable "smart stay", so if your watching the display, it will not timeout
Phone menu > settings > display > smart stay .............
anyway of keeping full screen videos on until the video has finished? Smart stay is only ok if youre looking at the screen directly. I often have it laying flat on a table or my bed while lying down and watching it from an angle the phone will still go into standby. If you dont full screen the video and just watch in the browser it will stay on.
Im sure it never used to turn off when on ICS and its only since JB that this started happening. It must be something to do with the stock browser as if i use firefox and full screen the video it will stay on until the video has finished. Trouble is i dont want to use firefox permanently as i dont like the way it handles book marks. For everything else i much prefer the stock browser, just not this one issue.
Having the same annoying problem as well. I can't use smart stay since i'm watching online videos in the dark. Never had this problem when I was still on stock ics. I'm currently running omega rom, using default browser and adobe flash player 11.1.. Is there any custom fix or workaround with this type of issue? It bugs me when the video would start over when my phone locks automatically.
ok, some info, i'm coming from the captivate (SGS1), on that phone if you were in a full screen app, or the camera was active, the screen wouldn't turn off regardless of the time out setting.
on this phone i have the timeout on 30 seconds with the stay on mode enabled for when i'm looking at the screen, this works really well except the above doesn't work, when the camera is on or the app is full screen it still times out. this becomes REALLY annoying when doing things like google hangouts as it hangs up the call when the screen turns off.
am i missing a setting? how can i keep the screen on when the app is full screen (games, movies, etc)?
thanks
So say for some odd reason you have your screen time out on 5 minutes, phones on silent you get a text. It wakes your phone up for 5 minutes. I have a rough idea of separating the screen time out selection into two. A screen time out set for when the end user unlocks his or her phone and a wake lock induced screen time out. Now I know there's anti wake lock apps but the idea is as I stated a set screen time out for a user induced wake lock and app induced wake lock. This idea popped into my head randomly as I don't leave smart stay on so I max screen time out to watch video's and sometimes luck my phone on silent for getting to change the screen time out back. Anyone have any insights about this.
Hi,
I have this issue with my watch: sometimes I can light-up the watch by touching the display and most of the times this doesn't work. Is this a feature (when it works) or a bug (when doesn't work)?
Thank you!
Just few seconds after your screen goes off, it would get back on by tapping on screen. In other cases you couldn’t make it on by tapping.
I just hop on this thread about screen light.
I trying to find the setting to turn off the screen while on running activity. I notice the screen is light on entire running activity until complete. I had already enable wrist lift option to turn on the screen when i need checking the running stats.
Anyway find the setting to turn it off or perhaps sleep mode. Thank you in advance.
There is no such option in Zepp yet. Hopefully they will add it, since screen-on is very battery-consuming.

You can turn it off by going into workout settings.
If you disable light on lift, touch to light up display will be also disabled. At least it happens on mine.
Hello,
So I've been facing a problem with my S10+ the thing that I can't usually sleep without my phone and most of the time I wake up to find that my phone has been awake and auto playing a video after another, I know you can stop autoplay but not on all apps and I was looking for an app or a way to control the screen timeout while watching videos! I searched google but didn't find anything useful till now...
thanks in advance!
