    What are you trying to achieve? That the phone automatically locks when you are not near it?

    You should be able to set this in Settings

    Locks, pins, screen locks are generally all or nothing, I believe all you can do is extend or minimise when screen lock kicks in.

    Exactly. Most Android phone ( not all mind you ) offer ' no time limit ' to auto lock the screen. So it's just a matter of tapping the power button to lock it.
