There are some cooked ROMs after which I need to redo the TZ the time and the date, whereas there are other cooked ROMs that do not require this and my current date/time/tz settings survive the flash. Does anyone know why and how?
I've always had to set the date and time in every Rom I falsh. I think it's due to the release date.
It's not a big problem, right?
I never set the time/date after flashing these roms. It's automated in Schaps & TNT (and some others). They list a rom feature called "Automatic network time/zone synchronization".

This is the set up you do during the the initialization process, not after the WM6 is set up and running.

Ah, so that's why a new flash puts me in Vladivostok! It's the correct offset (GMT+10) but has Northern hemisphere daylight saving..

In the own thread of the ROM post #2 you can find solution:
My clock stopped working / changed to wrong timezone? How can i fix this?
Go to Settings > Personal > Phone
Then go to the Timezone tab and uncheck "automatic change timezone"
I tried that but it still didnt work.

Hi there,
i had the same problem here, the clock stopped to update in TF3D. (The clock itself works fine.. ) A softreset did not helped, but 2x runs of "cleanRAM" solved the problem so far.
Another problem i noticed is, after running Klaxxon sometimes the whole phone will loose 95% of its cpu-performance. Softreset will fix this.
Next problem belongs to the camera. Sometimes camera go into a "save-loop" when pictures got saved to internal flash (not 4GB device)
So long, Christian
Guys, Gen.Y D2 R2-Rev.Y has its own thread... there´s no reason creating something else just to solve your problems...
So, the clock problems have been reported there several times, and you may find that one of those is the issue:
- usage with some alarm utility (such as pocketalarm, klaxxon, etc)
- usage with S2u2: I don´t have this problem myself but it´s been reported, so, try to avoid it
- bad flash: read the MTTY thread and try to flash your device again, using that process.
If the problem persists... well, you´re free to get back to whichever ROM you find more suitable, since it´s been reported as well in the thread that some devices will keep - still - freezing the clock.
Good luck. And I guess, moderator, you can close this thread.
Wrong MSID
I have had the same problem, after I discovered that MSID for portuguese cities were wrong, afterwards no more Clock hangs, please see thread:

Hi,
You go in "Settings"==>"Today" disable TF3D click ok, and then RE-Enable TF3D...
This is a bug Manila 2.1
I had the same problem but now its solved.
Go to all settings -> system ->Clock and Alarms.
Change the timezone to any other time zone.
Then, go back to the home screen clock. click on it.
From World Clock remove the original clock.
Go back to clock and alarms-
Now put the your timezone.
I think for some users, it does work properly for city timezone'
i had the same problem, disabling and re-enabling TF3D2 is indeed a solution. The problem is caused by the service autotimeupdate.exe.
I removed the startup key in the registry, and now the clock works perfectly without disabling TF3D2 or other modifications!

SOLUTION
I had been petrified with the clock hanging issue for a long time, but these simple steps seemed to have solved my prob,
1. Diable TF3D from Today.
2. Restart would be preferable.
3. Diable automatic time zone change in settings>phone
4. Again a restart would be preferred.
5. Adjust time in settings>clock if required.
6. Start TF3D from today.
Try it out, works well for me

I used to have the same problem with pocketshield installed, it was because I have a pin set for my sim when the phone starts up, and if pocketshield started to load before touch flo it caused the clock locking up problems, so as soon as the pin screen comes up insert pin quick and press enter then all is fine, or remove the sim pin.

Wow man and for me, thank you! And without the need to put the stylus in the registry!
I was about to change my ROM for this bug
You can also re-install the disableclockflip.cab it seems work too..
I've created an app that does what "socket84" was talking here on the forum ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734151 ), which basically is a way to change the default home screen when the user presses the Home button. This works with a hidden setting from TouchWiz. I posted it on Market with the name "SGS Screen Changer".
NOTE: You'll ROOT and BusyBox for the app to be able to do it's work.
http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.pedronveloso.samsunghsc/
I've only tested it with the European, Samsung Galaxy S so far.
I've tested with various different firmwares ( JM2, JG5, JM6, JM7 and JM8 ) and it's working ok. Also I've coded a backup mechanism in case things don't work as expected, and later you can restore the file to it's initial state, from the the restore button within the app, or manually by issuing the command "cp /system/default.propBackup /system/default.prop", but verify first that you have the backup file.
> Doesn't work on Froyo yet! The configuration files have changed in those releases, and I've not fixed it yet.
Also, it would be great if people could post the contents of their "/system/default.prop" file in here, along with their firmware number, so I can fix it for different non functioning firmwares. Thanks
Let me know if you've any questions, and all feedback it's appreciated. Also remember this is the first public version, so don't expect it to look pretty, I've focused on functionality and correctness first.
Change-log:
Beta 2 ( 20-08-2010) :
* Bugfixes
* Fixed screen numbering as reported by Limality ( thanks )
Beta 1 ( 18-8-2010 ) : First release
IMPORTANT NOTE: Everyone who had installed the first beta should update it from the Market and set the screen to whichever they want, even if the app did work to them before. People who said it wasn't working, and the ones who said it didn't leave the 4th screen should update and select the screen they want and reboot. All those problems should be fixed in this release. I'll be waiting for further feedback on those ones to confirm if this solved their problems

tested with rooted JM5.
not configurable. always get me to screen 4 despite setting it to screen 3 or so on.
"Restore to original settings" doesn't work after reboot it's still screen 4.
Any ideas?
Note: screen 4 is only good for 7-screens SGS. since I've 5 screens I want to make default screen 3

Regardless what I set (tried homescreen 1,2,3,4..) still when pressing "HOME" button it takes me to screen 4...
nice app!
might wanna just add 1 to all the screen numbers just so everyone gets it .
starting at 0 while the numbers shown in touchwiz are starting at 1, is kinda weird
\
so screen 0 = 1 and screen 1 = 2
edit: hmm not working here either on JM5 always gives the last screen as home screen, if i do it myself it works..
Not work with DXJG4
Maybe "One click lag fix 2.3" could be a cause ?

The backup it's stored in /system/default.propBackup , you just have to do "cp default.propBackup default.prop" in some terminal as root in case to restore it manually, if the restore button fail's to do it's job.

Nice to know . By the way, you have BusyBox installed from the Market, or you had it bundled with your ROM ?
IIRC, some firmwares (i.e. DXJG4) have a different /system/default.prop and hence will not work.. Cant change manually either

Would be useful to have the data regarding which firmwares work, and which doesn't. If I did I could check it while executing the app and notify the user properly. Also, I'm in doubt if people who install busybox from the market have a different setup from the ones who doesn't. I'm issuing the linux commands like "echo" , but if the busybox from the market doesn't update the system Path I'll have to pass the entire path when issuing the command. I'll be waiting for more feedback from the users and begin sorting this out.
So far it seems that everyone who has MoDaCo and/or JG5 has been able to use this.
OK, updated the app. I found out what was wrong, should now be fixed.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Everyone should update it from the Market and set the screen to whichever they want, even if the app did work to them before.

Wish I could test it for you, but currently my phone is bricked.
Default screen is maybe the only option I am missing in TW.
However when I tried this hack in JPJG8 it didn't work, so if your app is just editing the /system/default.prop file, most chances are it won't work either.
Ok, I got a report that the fix did in fact work.
Made This because i see the same question/bugs referenced in the cm thread over and over for each build so I figured id place them all here so people wont have to look. And will know its a problem to start with and to keep the general talk out of the original development forum/aid the developers with a plain list of bugs/workarounds.

@haynesr07, did you do a complete wipe? several times even? Sometimes stuff can leak through from your last rom and mess with your settings in your new rom, try clearing everything a couple times (2 or 3 times per item) and flash again
Also if you restored any data, that might be it, I've seen weird problems when people do that...I don't think this issue is rom specific though or it wouldnt be stable enough to be released

This is the current build props i use. Leave out the Bootanimation one if you want to keep your boot animation. Do not edit buildprop if you have no experience. Look up the proper way to use them, Dreamlogix explainsto use rom toolbox above. Dont add all in. Check if value exists and change to the new value. If an entry is missing add it but dont assume its not there because double entries cause issues and if you mess up your build prop you might not boot. Have the rom file ready in case. One would need to dirty flash to get back to current install or a backup. If on a custom kernel after reinstalling rom, run kernel cleaner and reinstall kernel. Gapps will work on the dirty install without reinstalling them.

Thanks i didn't remember inverted gapps you are right. I changed and added all of the values in the txt document i posted. They weren't for a fix, i always use them. Thats a list if the values i use.
Edit: most of them all add performance in some way. I didn't use any network build props so it could be more universal for other roms...

I confirmed this morning that ktoon kernel (12/29) breaks audio (pandora, google music, 8tracks, etc) while stock kernel is fine on 1/1 nightly (clean flashed). On stock kernel, BT audio (google music) will play ok for 10-20 secs and then start fading in and out at a faster playback speed. You can reset this by making a phone call, but then you get another 10-20 secs of good audio before it starts up again. Someone should mention this on the dev thread at some point.
Also: if you're having problems with stock 1/1 nightly...do a clean flash. all my problems went away.

Your welcome, ui should be smooth with those.
I am not using any network build props is what i mean. I didn't want to play with tt for now to ensure my network works fine. So that txt document has none in it either. It is a bunch of tweaks gathered but no real network adjustments (i didn't want to negatively effect my setup or others)

Hi,
I have forked one of the app's released on GitHub by Fairphone/Kwamecorp, the Peace of Mind app. It's bascially an Airplane Mode with a timer.
We become more conscious of our phones as our lives become increasingly connected. Would you like to disconnect, if only for a moment? Your phone will go silent and disconnect from the world: no e-mail, no status updates, no SMS and no phone calls. Choose how long you wish to disconnect (up to 12 hours).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm not sure if they're planning on publishing it as a standalone app (currently a system-app), so I've forked into Peace of Mind+ to make it available for other devices and for eager Fairphone owners!
Released under the Apache License version 2.0. Source code and APK are available here https://github.com/mudar/Fairphone
For Android 4.2+ devices, the app requiers Root privileges to enable the Airplane Mode. On non-rooted phones (or if SU is declined) the app enables Silent Mode instead. This is due to security changes introduced by Google in Android SDK version 17.
Attached are two screen captures and the APK.
When done, I hope to refactor the Fairphone OS launcher.

Yes, sir, nice. That's the reason I really like open source. Just more variants, that's nice. Thank you for your fork.
I have some thoughts about the widget and the app:
The widget is just too big/tall. Maybe it's possible that you can reduce the used space on the screen?
One major bug is, that the app only switches the airplane mode on/off. I usually use WLAN at home and work with activated airplane mode. If I'm going to take a nap for 30 mins, I activate peace of mind but WLAN is still active and Mails, Hangouts (messages, voice/video calls), G+ and other messengers would. The app also does not silence incoming messages. So currently not that much peace. Would be nice, if you can make a workaround or something.
If users install this app, the need root. Please mention it somewhere, maybe in the thread title.
Nice to see you working on that!
Maybe you'd like to submit it to f-droid? That'd be great!

I've edited the OP. However, root is not strictly required. For Android 4.2+ devices, the app toggles the sound (silent) mode on non-rooted phones. If SU is available, permissions are requested (to toggle airplane mode). If declined, the app falls back to toggling silent mode...
I have added the issues on GitHub https://github.com/mudar/Fairphone/issues Upcoming features will also be listed there..
Upcoming version
Next week's version will have a Settings screen to control max-duration (3, 6 or 12 hours) and to toggle Airplane/Silent mode.
Your suggestions are most welcome! Either here on xda or on github https://github.com/mudar/Fairphone/issues
Version 0.9.1
Here's the updated version:
- Settings to determine maximum duration (3, 6 or 12 hours) and disconnection mode (Airplane/Silent mode)
- Fixed layout issues and optimization!
Attached are the APK and a screen capture of the new Settings
The app is also available on the playstore, and the APK is available on GitHub too.

Very nice. Installed it and switched to Google Play to get all the updates automatically.
The 3/6/12 hours steps are really nice implemented. This will save my peace during the (business) day :angel:.
I talked about the functionalities of this app and I was told, there is a further need. Switch off all connections with the airplane mode but then let the user decide whether he wants to get notification (alarm, appointments) or not. Silent mode would probably not deactivate the LED notification light. However I did not check.
At the New Year's Eve party I'll get a chance to try out a Fairphone and then I can compare the original and the improved version and also show it to others.
If you want the app translated, place a request in our app translation thread. And if you want, you can post an advertisement for your app in the Fairphone Blog, like for those who have to wait longer, so they can test at least this app/widget. Almost like a teaser. The guys from Fairphone shouldn't have anything against it, because this is the way they provide their software - open for forks
Oh yes, I put some links related to this app in the OP and we also have a app tester thread.
EDIT: GPS is still active after airplane mode. I understand, this app just enables/disables the airplane mode, but can we get some extra tweaks in the settings area, in this case to save battery? Would be nice. If you know what's on the todo list of the next version, give us an update.
Thank you and enjoy the holidays.
EDIT: This widget/app was mentioned in the article Fairphone im Kurztest (at the very bottom; German, c't magazin, 3rd Jan 2014).
Version 0.9.2
New version released, with many fixes
Changelog:
AirplaneMode enables SilentMode too, to avoid notifications
Fixed SilentMode issue (would trigger AirplaneMode on some android versions)
Fixed video animation playback issue
Fixed minor timer issue (was running an extra minute)
Attached is the new APK, also available on the playstore.
NOTE: I have reported an issue to Kwamecorp, related to the AlarmManager timer that ends the Airplane mode. If you enable PeaceOfMind for 15 minutes, then leave your phone idle (disconnected, screen off), there's no guarantee that the timer would actually be triggered, since it does not wakeup an asleep device. This means that you might not receive any calls after the 15 minutes have passed, until you wake up the device by turning the screen on.
I'm currently working on fixing what I consider a critical issue before actually testing it on Kwamecorp's original version. Sorry about this, update is coming before the end of the week!
Version 0.9.3
New version released, fixing the deep-sleep bug.
There are still some minor UI glitches I'm currently working on. Will edit this post soon, but wanted to publish this before the end of the week, as promised
Version 0.9.4
Changelog
Fixed deep-sleep bug
Improved timer accuracy
Fixed videoplayback issue on some devices
APK is attached here, update is also available on the playstore.
Next version will include widget enhancements and integration of DashClock.

This should be fixed now. The change I made is that Airplane is mode is enabled each time PeaceOfMind is started, so this disables WiFi. Previously, the app would check airplane status, skipping if already was already on.

When enabling PeaceOfMind, Airplane and Silent modes are (now) both set (or silent-mode-only based on settings). So this silences notifications. Handling Alarms is a whole different story since they could be set by different apps. This would require displaying a list of installed apps to handle sound for each. I prefer to stick to the original mission: disconnect from the outside world

Well, it seems that enabling GPS with Airplane mode on varies by manufacturer. It's a very good idea and I understand the advantages, however I don't think such a feature fits with this app's scope. sorry
Thanks again for all your valuable feedback!

Thanks @mudar1488 for the recent updates. Before I go on, I want you to update also the first post of the thread, if you upload a new version including the new file, to get a version history. Also a Changelog in the first post would be nice. You also can place a new post, but please also update the first post. This makes it way easier to check if this thread was either updated or not. If the Fairphone index is up or let's say necessary, I don't wanna miss an update.
I use your Peace of Mind+ on my business device, a Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE (720 x 1280 pixels, 4.8 inches). Today I was checking the last version and I saw a couple of things, probably issues, maybe not.
1. Version number
I think I should have the version 0.6, but after a look in the app info, I was confused: "ca.mudar.fairphone.peaceofmind version 0.9.4 beta". Is that right or did I just update to much?
2. Sound on/off
Usually my phone is silenced completely. After I set a time in Peace of Mind+ and time ran out, the airplane mode switched off and sound switched on. So no silence anymore. Please save the settings of the sound before Peace of Mind+ becomes active and after the time ran out, restore the settings. Same thing with the airplane mode, which usually is active on my device, as well as WiFi is active.
3. Graphical issues
I have some graphical issues on my device. When I start Peace of Mind+ you see the following:
You can see a strange graphical fragment on the right of "ATPEACE". I started the app three times, and I always saw a different fragment.
Then I started a time and reset it to zero right afterwards, result:
Ok, so the fragment is gone and the text "ATPEACE" jumped one text line up and stays there, because on the left side, there are two text lines during the time is running out. Check the image below, in this case the two text lines are "1h35 TO1h35". To avoid these fragments, I currently have to set a time, then the fragment is gone.
Hope the images help to compensate some of the wrong or not correct words/text phrases I used. If not, don't hesitate to ask.
EDIT:
Just recognized your title of the post with the latest app version: "Version 0.9.4". I am a bit lost. Why is version 0.9.4 called v0.6 in the file name?
Great feedback @benkxda, as usual
I've added updates to the OP, but for detailed history I on Github. For future versions, I'll probably just publish the updates in the OP instead of adding a new reply each time.

well, this is a strange one! I did test on a Galaxy S3 and didn't see such pixels.
When you enable PeaceOfMind, do you see an animation in the background (like a water flood)?
Do you still these pixels in landscape mode?
How long has it been since last time you did a reboot?! (just looking for hints)
Do you think these pixels could be translucid? meaning do you think you see a scramble of your homescreen ? or do they look more like pixels of a corrupted video?
I'll do my best to find the issue.
I've added the last two to the GitHub issues page
Edit: I've attached 2 APKs to test the Graphical issues. @benkxda reported having graphical issues on his Galaxy S3 (unspecified ROM). Users who have the same issue (screen captures attached) can try installing these 2 versions and see if the issue is still there. Warning: ugly colors are used

What a shame, I forgot my S3 LTE at work. It has Android 4.3.1 running, CM10.2 nightly (set to 280 ppi).
Well, I just thought, I give other devices a try. I used file version 0.6, as this was the version on the S3 LTE, where I found those graphical issues.
First up, the Nexus 5 (full HD set to 440 ppi, Omni nightly). I did not see any problems. Then I tried it on the Galaxy Nexus (720x1280, just like the S3 LTE, set to 320 ppi and running CM11 nightly) and also no problems. It might be a problem with the older Android 4.3.1 or maybe this special nightly? I am back at work on Monday.
Thanks a lot for this. I was looking for such an app when I saw a Fairphone unboxing video.

Yes, I see the animation (smoothly on N5/S3 LTE and on Galaxy Nexus a bit sluggish).
Yes, I see these pixels in landscape mode. Doesn't matter if I start in portrait mode and switch to landscape mode or if I directly start in landscape mode.
I have this all the time, doesn't matter if I try after reboot or at the end of the day... always the same.
This is a bit special. Well, I think I don't see my background wallpaper (my wallpaper is just simple black). But I tried it on two home screens. One screen with a lot of icons, the other one with none (even no navigation icons). The result was interesting, as I saw a mostly brown or green fragment on the screen with much icons and usually a black fragment on the screen without icons. It is not always the brown/green or the black one, but that where the most results.
Hope that helps.

Thanks @benkxda! Did you try-out the v07a and v07b versions (attached here)? the latter doesn't play video and they both use ugly colors to try to understand what zone/element holds the strange pixels!
However, I do suspect an issue with the custom ROM or the custom DPI value used

Nnnniiice work! So will you get/ put it into the f-droid repository as well? Looking forward to it! :good:
(also, please tell me if the people from f-droid put it into their repository or if a developers has to do that. It could be just them, because all the code is available and they build it from source by themselves to make sure applications don't differ from the code they link to/ offer)
