I'd like to have the time & date (on the external screen)time out and turn off like it did went I got the phone. The front display stay on with time & date dimly lit all the time making my battery turn down.

Hi Marv,
Thanks for you question. Unfortunately, I haven't found any way of changing the behavior on the external screen on my phone.
This is how my LG 420g's external screen behaves. When I close the phone, the external screen goes on for about one second, dims briefly and then turns off completely.
After it's closed, if I press one of the side buttons, the screen goes on brightly for about 30 seconds, then dims briefly (one or two seconds) then turns off.
As I said, I don't know of any way to change this. I've tried turning Bluetooth on and off to see if that has any effect, and it doesn't. I tried changing the duration of the main screen's backlight, but that also has no effect.Even my Power Save setting is set to "Off", so that doesn't help either.
Hopefully, someone else will find the solution if there is one.
Regards,
