[Q] Screen timeout not turning off the screen - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I tried to change the timeout of my scrren but what ever I chose, nothing worked ; the screen stays on.
When I am in front of it, no big deal, I close the cover and it closes the screen but in this situation, if i have a reminder that switches the screen on, it stays on forever
Could you help me ?
I tried wakelock but i did not see anything particular and, in any case, I am not sure I know how to read it correctly but I assume that is not that difficult
Thanks for your help

Screen wont turn off when smart stay is enabled

Hello.
When i have my smart stay enabled, and when i, for example, leave my phone on table beside me, not looking at it at all, screen is not turning off.. I have my screen timeout set to 30 seconds, and it is not turning off when i have smart stay enabled... Sometimes it turns off,and sometimes not.. I really like smart stay, and i dont want to turn it off, but im irritated because sometimes i just forget to push power button to turn screen off, and it stays on...
Any one got same problem or solution for this ?
You need to turn it off manually sometimes. Smart stay works so well that it will stay on in my truck at the lock screen even with sunglasses on. Small nuisance for how well it works when there is enough light. Doesn't bother me at all.

How to stop G3 from locking right after dimming display

Hi there, I love the LG G3, but its also annoying that the phone just lock itself right after the screen is off, unlike other device which often first lower the light, then dim the light and sleep/lock the device, allowing you to have some time touching the screen to keep it on. With G3, no matter which app you are in, or you are in the middle of the call, when it's darken the screen means the phone is lock and you have to turn on screen, enter lock code again...
Does anyone find it annoying too and know how to fix it? Thank you!

Go to settings-lock screen-lock timer and set for 2 minutes or more. The default time is too short imo. I have mine set for 2 minutes.
Thanks but its not exactly what im looking for. I set for 30s time out and I think its enough for most of the time. On other phone, it allow you some dim time so that you can keep the screen on without having to unlock the device again but G3 just lock it, even in the middle of the call when the screen is off. Thats quite annoying.

Ok you want face detection. Go to settings-display-smart screen and check the box to enable. Screen will stay on when it detects your face.
face detection doesnt seem to work on LG phone as it does on Samsung. I find it useless feature. @@

LG G3 screen slowly turning white when screen is turned on

Hello, so I am experiencing a huge pain in my butt with my LG G3, the issue is that whenever I press the power on button to turn the screen on my screensaver pops up and looks completely fine, after about 5 seconds a white shadow starts to appear in the background and slowly starts to make certain parts of my screen invisible, but as soon as a lock my phone and turn the screen on its gone but the process starts again. May be a possible led problem or something else? I would appreciate any help I can get before I go and take the phone back to Verizon and see what they say.

Just a normal picture from my gallery nothing extravagant or anything, it's strange there are like dark streaks going down my screen, I cannot capture it on a screenshot so I'd have to post a picture of it.

Hello,
I have exactly the same problem. I am able to use the phone in all his features, but the display presents stripes of shadow white. These shadows disappears when phone gets locked and appears when unlocking after few seconds. How did you solve? Will the guarantee cover this problem?

My phone screen will not timeout automatically

My LG G5 recently stopped automatically turning the screen off despite the time settings. I first noticed the phone would warm up in my pocket, so I investigated further. Even though I attempted to work-around the issue by disabling lockscreen notifications, the screen will turn itself on whenever I get a notification then never turns off (doesn't even dim itself). First of all, I do not want my screen turning on for notifications, but additionally, I want the screen to timeout on its own. Any suggestions?
