Help Any way to change the screen timeout values?

[domoarigato]

The quick-change icons that LG provides in the notification tray are very useful.

One of them, however, is a bit frustrating: Screen timeout. When the user clicks it, it cycles between 30 seconds, 5 minutes, and 15 minutes. None of those durations are ideal.

The user can long-click on the icon and then specify a different duration, but that it a slow and clunky way to do it.

Is there a way to modify the durations for which the Screen timeout button cycles? Root and Xposed solutions are fine, if required.

You can always try (code)
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10748861/how-to-change-screen-timeout-programmatically

Or
Use Tasker ($2.99)

Or this from the Play Store (free)

Didnt find anything noteworthy for Xposed modules. I'd try the Intelliscreen first.

Thanks for the all the ideas! I appreciate it.

I would prefer to just use the notification icons that LG includes to change the screen timeout (if the timeout values can be changed). The reason is that it does not require any additional apps, and is so convenient in the notification area.

But if no one comes up with a solution, one of your ideas might work out. Thanks again.

That would be the first link in my previous post. It would change the default presets to your choosing. You just have to do some editing.

No OP is wanting to change default presets for the settings, which would be the StackOverflow link above.

He wants to change the values for the brightness toggle in the quick settings... Something I would like to do as well... What you posted doesn't do that.

Read the first link again. Once the values are changed, they will also be in the quick settings.

None of that makes any sense to me.

Can you provide step by step instructions to use that code?

I dont know enough to be doing a tutorial. Maybe one of the experts will see this and help out.
