Lock screen stays lit in pocket when playing music

When I am playing music and listening through my headphones, my lock screen stays lit. This happens if I, for example, check the time with the lock screen on and put it back in my pocket. If I don't click the hold button to manually turn off the screen, it stays lit in my pocket until manually turned off.
This also happens if I use a voice command through my headset. After using this feature, I notice that my phone will stay lit on the lock screen until I manually shut it off by hitting the lock button.
I called apple care and they told me to reset all settings, which I tried. I also started this phone as a new phone, not from a back-up of my previous 3G.
I am not sure if this is also what is contributing to my battery life, or lack there of.

mgsone, you can try to restore you iPhone 4 using iTunes. It'll wipe it and restore it and re-sync everything back on. This has fixed various issues such as battery charge/life and various bugs. It doesn't hurt to try. But please make sure you backup your iPhone 4 before you do so. All within iTunes.

  • Is it possible to have the "lock screen" stay lit up while I am charging my iPhone 4S?

    Is is possible to have the "lock screen" stay lit up, and not go dark, while I am charging my iPhone 4S?  I would like to turn off the sounds and vibrate but still be able to see the clock and see if any new messages come in.
    Also, is there a setting or an app that will turn off all my sounds and vibrate at a given time, say 10pm and then turn it back on at 7am?

    No and no.

  • My 30GB iPod display screen stays lit when in the cradle

    Ever since I upgraded to iTunes 7.0, my iPod (running vers. 1.2) display screen stays lit (albeit at what seems to be half-luminance). It never used to do this. It is powered (and upgraded) via one of the USB ports - as opposed to a FW port.
    Is this now normal? Is tere a way to disable this function? Or do I even need to disbale this and instead just not worry about it?
    thanks
    Theo

    Mine does the same, and I've heard that other people are seeing the same thing. I'm not too concerned about it.

    Try:

    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • When playing music from Ipod in my car, music suddenly stops and message appears to restore in iTunes.  After a few minutes, it starts to play again.  I hear a click and the apple logo shows on the screen.  Any ideas??

    You may need to do a Restore in iTunes.
    Clicking sounds from an iPod that has a hard drive is probably not a good thing.  It is possible that your iPod's hard drive is becoming unreliable.

  • The off button does not switch to 'hibernate' or lock when playing music.

    The off button does not switch to 'hibernate' or lock when playing music. I have to hold the off button down
    for a prolonged period of time to get it to switch off; have had to resort to holding the off button and the main
    button simultaneously to reset but no improvement.

    - First try restoring the iPod from backup via iTunes.
    - If problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    - If still a problem than you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment a the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How can I make the lock screen stay active for longer than 5 seconds?

    I'd like to have the lock screen stay active for longer than 5 seconds.  Too many times I've not seen a notification come through.  I'd like to have it stay on for at least 5 minutes for shutting down.  I'm suprised a "lock screen delay" option isn't a general setting available to unjailbreaked phones. 

    Sorry, no.
    Tell Apple you'd like a setting to alter this:

    Sadly, I cant connect the ATV optically, as my amp doesn't have an input, nor does the ATV have phono output, unfortunately.
    Thanks for your reply
    That was an advantage of ATV1 - analogue audio out (and component video, and the hard drive, and iTunes Extras/LP....I'll stop there ).
    No reason trhey couldn;t potentially add as an option though:

  • Can you adjust the length of time the screen stays lit?

    Can you adjust the length of time the screen stays lit?

    but you can't lengthen it unfortunately.
    Bear in mind, the screen is the largest consumer of power.

    I thought the same thing, until I saw there is a podcast update as well in the app store, that fixes this.

  • My buttons arent working and my screen is just black and its playing music, help me!!

    my buttons arent working and my screen is just black and its playing music, help me!!

    Hello yung_jvyden,
    So your iPhone is on or it wouldn't be playing music yet you can't seem to "wake it up" as the buttons aren't responding.
    There's a section in this article for buttons not responding.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
    Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
    Restart your device.
    If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
    Note it links to 
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Can I Enlarge Title and Artist Text when Playing Music?

    Hello.  This question pertains to the 5th generation 32 GB iPod Touch.
    When playing music, I'd like to know if I can enlarge the text that displays the title and artist of the track now playing. 
    (I listen to my iPod in bed, but I wear contacts, and take them out at night.  I am unable to read the text clearly.)
    If there is a way to enlarge the text, what is the procedure?  Is a separate app required, or can I do it some other way?
    Thank you!   Jd

    After doing more research and playing with the iPod, I figured out what to do.  There's a trick to it.
    You double-tap the screen with three fingers.  On the second tap, you spread your three fingers out.  That enlarges the screen to almost any size you want.  Then, you use your three fingers to move the screen around.  The Zoom feature will memorize the customization, and will remain that size unless or until you change it.
    It's just a little bit tricky, but that's how I got it to do what I want.  Jd
