Help screen shuts off ???

I am a DINC owner but bought my girl her first smartphone for Christmas (droid Pro). it's not as complicated for a newbe as mine.

Last night (and the night before) while installing and playing with ADW, the screen would shut off after about 10 minutes. It was like the battery was dead and it shut itself off. But it still had plenty of batt life left. It did the same the night before, when i play with it (have screen on) for around 10 minutes, it just goes to black. You only have to unlock again and your good for another 10 minutes BUT is this only happening to me? A setting maybe (but i checked everywhere). I have screen timeout set to 30 seconds but this happens while the screen is on.....

no big deal, it's rare that she'll have the screen on for a full 10 minutes but i don't think it right.
 
It's probably the In-Pocket detection. Menu - setting - display. Uncheck it an see if it still happens.



Didn't even think of that MrWilliams. Thank you very much. I'm sure thats it. And the funny thing is that I just checked that setting a few days ago to see how it worked. thanks again......
