Screen doesn't lock when press Power off Button ?!

Hi,

I'm currently facing this problem and it's really annoying.

I never update my phone or whatever because it will slow it down.

My phone went out of battery and it turned off. So i plug the charger in and waited for it to restart. After restarting it, I realize there are several settings that ran away IE: My ringtone preferences and keyboard preferences. So far, I've already readjust it, But ever since the phone restarted like that, I can no longer lock my screen, not even if it times out itself after 15 seconds. and when i press and hold the power off button, instead of showing the menu for options like "Silent phone"/Flight mode"/"Shut down" it only shows power off. What can i do to get the original settings back ? HELP PLEASE !!!

repair it with SUS and do NOT install any app, if mcafee it's pre-installed remove it.
