Help Screen remains ON

I can't understand why, sometimes my screen remains on. It happen when it's charging and when it's not too, without an apparent reason. I've tried disabling the daydream and it didn't change a thing.
The only way to turn of the screen is by pressing the power button.

I have 4.4 installed.

I haven't even activated the developer's option yet. Anyway, that box is unchecked. And unfortunately this problem happen when the phone is not in charge.

You stated in your quote it happened when its charging
 
Try the reset old data and new data don't meet . I had this problem with a droid bionic when I tried the kitkat and I did the reset it fixed alot .
 
Some users don't read the full pop up and see the fine print say that if u have any problems do a factory reset . but many think old and new data mixes. If you have a full update that change from jb to kk that would encourage you to do a reboot before you do anything else I know I do and do a second to be safe
 
Factory is highly recommended for any major system upgrade (like JB to KK). It should not be necessary after a minor upgrades.

I hope this fixes things. The KK upgrade for mine hasn't affected the screen turning on and I didn't do a factory reset, but it may help.
Have you recently installed some apps that could perhaps be doing this?
 
I don't know, recently I've installed some games, car home ultra and nothing else that I can remember. My bet is that is something linked to the fact that I haven't done the factory reset. But at this point I think that I will wait to do it.
