Hi, 

Does anyone have a screen timeout problem, it's set to 15 sec but this doesn't  happen. I have reset many times but still doesn't work and this  is causing my battery  to drain....

I tried this way to set up the time - not in the setting application, but to push button on the top right corner of the screen (notification menu) - and voila ! i got my 5 required minutes instead of 10 seconds. miracle, please try this way. It is the same setting page but another path to reach and it works

I dont think it was a hardware problem. So I would suggest you to find the app which is the culprit and reboot after unistalling it (Stay optimistic). Or else take it to Customer Care. You can try clearing Dalvic Cache from the recovery mode(it would not delete your personal data but it ll take few minutes to reboot after clearing it). Good Luck.

Hello. I got the screen timeout working just by rechecking the timeout setting ( though the setting were okay and were set to 30 sec) in display setting and then rebooted my phone. It somehow worked for me.

Yup same problem. Can't believe Samsung lets their product get out to the public with such shoddy testing. Im ready to return this brand new Galaxy Tab 8 and never buy a Samsung product again.
