screen timeout changes itself?

I set my screen to timeout after 30 seconds. My phone randomly changes it back to 2 seconds. I can't figure out how/why this is happening. Has this happened to anyone else?
 
If the words "warranty replacement" don't sound familiar, learn them. Then bring the phone back and use them. Your setting should stay where you put it.
 
I went into T-mo today with the intention of exchanging my phone. When the employee went through my phone to check my time out settings, 2 seconds was no longer a menu option. WTH???? Short of there being an update I didn't notice, Idk how this is possible. It's been happening randomly for almost 2 weeks. Pretty sure he thinks I'm crazy. No one else has noticed this happening?
 
Another update, in case anyone else has this same issue. It happened again, and I finally got a screenshot. T-mo let me exchange the phone for a brand new one. Haven't had any problems with the new one.

Oh wow, with my time with my former gs3, I don't even recall there even being a 2 second time out, only 15 and above.

Glad you got tmo to exchange it for you :thumbup:
