My wife's stock NOte II screen Time setting is 10 seconds.
It comes on when notifications go off, and never goes off, unless we manually turn it off.
Any thoughts?
This continues to be a problem.
In fact, it happens at night while on the charger, and the screen staying on prevents the phone from achieving a full charge.
Nobody has any thoughts?
Maybe the face rwgonition sensor that keeps the phone awake when you're looking at it is faulty.

Try turning off smart stay and see it fixes the issue.

Thanks for the thoughts.
Smart stay is off, so that likely is not hte issue.
There are 2 problems as I see it: First, the fact that it always turns on when anything happens, such as mail receipt, text msg, notifications. Then it never goes off.
If all else fails there is a mod in the themes and apps section to disable screen wake lock....so if you get any notifications it will not wake your screen I cant give u the link im out

Turn off motion detection, this always happened to me at night while charging.
Haven't had the problem ever since.

Thanks.
Upon checking it out, it works with the stock messaging app. We use Google Voice, so probably won't work.
I have turned off motion, and I think it has improved. Although I think it turns on when fully charged (notification of full charge I suppose), and stays on.
The fact that it stays on is the real problem. I don't understand why the 15 second setting doesn't let it turn off.
Hmmmm....I just thought of something else: I may haave Screeble installed. I'll have to check on that and see if there are strange settings or something.
I know what it is.... go into developer options and look for an option that says "screen on while pluged in" turn it off
good find...

Check in Settings > Developer Options
Theres an option in there to keep screen awake while charging and that may have been turned on? If not turn off try turning off the dev options just to make sure thats not the problem.

I dont know if anyone is facing the same problem I have now, my n2 screen wont turn off by itself. I have set the timer on 15secs, smart stay disable. It juz wont turn off when idle. And if its fully charged, it will stay up all night as well.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Does it relate to my Omega rom or Redpill kernel?
Thanks
Do you have motion on?
Reboot?

experienced this after upgrading to 4.1.2 weeks ago. backed up everything, complete-wipe then reflashed my rom(always on stock). no more issues. must have been a hiccup.

I had this even when I was on 4.1.1. Thought the upgrade would solve it for me but it didn't. Tough luck. Still searching for 3rd party apps that could give me a permanent solution.

I dun have a fix to this problem but I have a tasker profile that turns the screen off when battery is fully charged. You might want to try that as an interim.
What is your screen time out once mine was changed automatically check that
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
There's a button on the side for that
Just kidding, that's very strange. I noticed if you reboot the phone and don't touch it, when it comes on the screen never turns off either. Doesn't matter if it's plugged in or not.

I had that problem when using smart stay and smart rotation settings turned on in display settings. After I turned them off the screen shut off after 30 seconds as it should every time.

Yes I noticed when 'smart stay' is turned on it causes the screen to stay on all the time. It's not a perfect feature. So I've turned it off
Sent from my SGH-I317M using xda app-developers app
do you have the power option to stay on whilst charging?
It's not smart stay, not the screen rotate with your head thingy nor the developer option that keeps the screen on while the device is being charged. I turned all that off. This is clearly a big that I've had from 4.1.1. Can't get rid of it. Annoyance at its peak.

Are you saying that the screen just won't turn off, or that it turns itself on and then won't turn off?
If it's the first, my guess is an app which prevents the screen from turning off, didn't release its lock after being shut down. This can happen with some games, I've seen it with angry birds and jetpack joyride, titanium backup has done it too. Try to empty ram and kill processes, and/or reboot, though I would guess you might have tried that already.

If doesn't turn on on its own. When the bug kicks in, the screen doesn't go off if it's manually turned on or If a missed call or message is left unattended. Hope you got that. But yes, I can turn off the screen manually but doing that every time is ridiculously annoying. The bad thing is I cannot know if the bug is active or not without actually watching my screen till the timeout. Annoying bug! I've tried various things and I do not know what's causing this. I'm on stock rom, never rooted.

See if your phone can enter download mode or recovery?

Can't enter recovery or download mode. Still getting notifications and texts But still nothing on screen. I think i have to get it repaired Hope it's not too expensive.
EDIT - It's all working now 0.0 I don't know what happened, why it happened or what i did. Sitting at the pc about to email samsung about it. I press the power button in the hopes that something would appear, and the screen just turns on. WTF!
So earlier today I was using my phone in class when it suddenly shuts off. It shutting off was normal to me so like always, I take the battery out and put it back in. It turns back on gets to one of the loading screens and shuts off. My phone keeps vibrating while it's off so I don't think it could be the battery. Occasionally if I'm lucky, it would fully load to the point where I could use it but then shuts off and the whole process repeats again. I'm using the juggernaut rom if that helps.
Any ideas?
Odin back to stock and root your device and restore to your previous ROM if u have a backup of that ROM on your phone

I didn't have it in in the video and I tried it too, it doesn't do/change anything. I can get into download mode for literally a second and then the same thing just happens, it turns off and the little vibrating continues and remains in that state until I remove the battery and put it back in.

Okay so I have a cracked screen and I was going to fix it but the top left screw won't come out, nor will the bottom right. So I put all the screws back in, and now my power button isn't working. The second I put the battery in the phone turns on by itself. Yet, when I try to turn the screen off or on using it, it does nothing. What do I do?! I don't want to keep my screen on forever, and I don't want to keep taking my battery out. No, I don't have insurance either... so idk what to do can someone please help.
