Screen Lock Timeout Too Short

[bigmac15]

Hi

I have enabled full encryption on my S3 but the short screen time-out is driving me mad - only 3 minutes. I could do with about 10 minutes.
Before I applied the latest update I'm sure it was something like 15 minutes.

Anyone know how to extend it?

It should be in settings, display, screen timeout

Thanks I found it - now set to 5 minutes which is better although would still like to go up to 10 minutes.

You could also try enabling that feature where the phone doesn't go to sleep if you are looking at it (Smart Stay?)

Which phone do you guys have?

I have the AT&T version and those settings do not work on the lock screen?

LOL - I thought that the OP was referring to the lock screen too. Then I read it again ... he says "screen lock" ... So can you change the timeout in the lock screen??

I'm trying to find that option too.

ie. How can you increase the time-out on the lock screen ?
