Screen is repeatedly going black then reverting to the lock screen. Extremely annoying, happened twice while typing this.

What is your display time out set at?  Set it for longer.  Turn on "keep screen on while viewing".

@noblesteed96 If your display is turning off while you are typing, there is something else going on. Have you tried rebooting your device or wiping the device cache? 

The device cache wipe wipes out incompatible or outdated cache information which might be incompatible after the update. It does not erase any user data nor applications.

To wipe the device cache partition:

1. Power off your device.
2. Power up while holding down the Volume up key and the Side key until the Samsung logo appears. 
3. An Android recovery menu will appear.
4. Use the Volume down key to scroll down to Wipe cache partition.
5. Click the side key to select it.
6. Use the Volume down key to scroll down to Yes. 
7. Click the side key to select it. The Cache will be wiped almost instantaneously. 
8. Click the side key to select "Reboot system now"
