Screen Sleep settings appear to be limited in ICS upgrade

     My Razr Maxx recently received an OS update to Android 4.0.4 and I have been unable to extend the screen sleep setting past one minute of inactivity.  The choices are now 15 seconds, 30 seconds, one minute.  (System>Display>Sleep).  Sort of negates one of the advantages of a longer lasting battery....

     Has anyone else run into this?

Solved it.  After NuDroidUsrr posted the he/she had more options, I suspected I had an AP that was causing it.  The AP

"Phone Locator Pro" adjusts the screen timeout and overrides the factory settings. After I uninstalled it (not easy....), I now have up to 10 minutes Smiley Happy

On my Maxx it's working Fine but to get it Working on your Maxx you may have to Go into setting change it Then once it's changed do a Soft Reset to clear up sometimes little Snaffuse that Hender it from working. But it should start after doing that.b33Smiley Happy

B33; So your Maxx has screen sleep settings that allow you to set it for more than one minute?

  I have the MAXX, and it has 15 Sec, 30 Sec, 1 Min, 2 Min, 5 Min, and 10 Min. I wonder why yours only has up to 1 Min?

This is Making think More and More when ones got the Update they either didn't it Go threw the Full Sequence or something...With missing parts here or there things are not adding up. But i'm having the issue when i Go into the Browser and doing a Voice search and it at times is kicking out what i say when i Voice Type..
