Samsung Note 4 lock screen is timing out too fast

Samsung Note 4, recently upgraded to lollipop

Two problems. First, when my phone is locked, I do not have enough time to enter in my back up password. Power saving features are turned off. Smart stay is turned on. No new apps added recently that might impact that. (No new apps that I remember since Lollipop installed) ringtone download

Second, when I am in my phone and pull down the notification bar, within a couple of seconds the screen goes black, and I am locked out of the phone and have to sign in again. This is occurs every time I take a bit too long to look at my notifications. If I just glance and minimize it, no problems, samsung ringtone

Both of these problems are new since Lollipop.
