Galaxy s4 screen goes off and on!!help

A

AC Question

I've bought recently a Galaxy s4 i9505. The problem here is sometimes out of nowhere i touch the phone and the screens goes dark without blocking or anything then i have to press some button to show again the image and then it goes off again when i touch the screen. Is this a problem of the cellphone or definitions ?

I may have misunderstood you but you could try Settings>Display>Sleep, and make adjustments there to the time setting.

I beg your pardon, I thought you had solved your problem. Can you describe exactly where this sensor is, because I'm not sure which one you mean. Is it the front-facing camera, the phone earpiece, or what?

I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the S4 and don't know, from looking at pictures of it, what those features are.
May I suggest that you ask your question again in the Samsung forum?

I also appeal to S4 owners who may be able to help here.
