    Was wondering how the heck do I prevent my phone from going into lock mode when watching a movie? I always have to unlock my phone every few minutes if my phone is idle, just playing the movie. Thanks.

    Change your autolock settings or just turn it off.

    You would have to change the security timeout. Or shut it off whenever you go to play a movie.

    Options - password - security timeout.

    I am unable to find any menu item named "Auto Lock". What I find happening is suddenly the screen lock message will pop up, telling me to hit the lock icon to unlock, but you can do that until you are blue in the face, and nothing but a battery pull will release the lock.

    Roricken its actually a two part answer..first the autolock needs to be disabled..to do this go to options/password/ password / "disable"..then under your media player options "auto stop media player when idle" needs to be off .. the auto backlighting feature has nothing to do with it...niether does the security timeout feature..
