Just received my phone today. I toyed around with the phone and I noticed everytime I select something : task manager, program, volume. When the phone returns to the home screen the clock shows a time of 6:24 then it flips to the correct time. I had the Original Tilt and have never used Touchflo 3D. Is this the norm? It was cute the first time now it's aggrevating.
PS- I'm running stock rom.
Yep it's my location time running behind your normal clock.
I noticed the same thing too. The clock appears to start an hour behind and then flips to the correct time.
Its slightly annoying. =/
Happens on the stock AT&T rom. Don't know if it happens on other ROMs.

Ok you lost me. Can you explain?
Actually, mine starts 1:02:00 behind, then it switches to my current time. So I see the hour flip once and the minute flip twice. If you want to recreate this, just tap the notifications up top, close them, and then you'll see the time change. It's as if ATT wanted the clock to flip once when changing focus to it...
im using the tilt with a cooked rom and i have the same "issue. mildly annoying; would be nice to get rid of it
Unfortunately, it's working as designed. I believe it's supposed to be a "coolness" feature of the clock flipping everytime you go to the page.
I'm not sure I agree - you can see the behavior with the digital clock on device lock as well. There, it's not so cool. It really looks like it's doing something wrong.
Anyone know where to set 'my location' if you've gotten rid of TF3D?
me too
I noticed that the first day I got it on the Wednesday. I agree it is annoying and would like to prevent it if possible. I will keep looking to see if anyone comes up with a fix.
The other thing that I have noticed is that the SMS and or Email will just pop up for no apparent reason. I have it set to check my Email accounts every 15 minutes but I dont think it is on that time frame. It seems fairly random. Let me know if anyone else has noticed this that way I can see if it is something I have installed causing the problem.
Thanks, Kevin

It's the Time Zone Auto Fix package that is causing it...Just the way HTC is keeping your time accurate. Try disabling auto time check.
BG4 all also fixes it
Background For All includes a couple of flip clocks (clear and white) and also "fixes" this behavior. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572166

Assuming you meant the settings under 'Phone', this had no effect for me. Still flips. Going to try the Background 4 All & Flip Clock next. Thanks
The time between what's first shown and what it is flipped to / skipped to is about 75 minutes apart (I caught it enough times to see it happen). It's a very odd time to be off / different...
I've got this issue too, and I'm running the stock att rom for now. I agree, very irritating. I thought something was wrong with my phone until I found this thread.
It appears that the time is when I last looked at my phone, as if it's cached (either the time or what seems more likely - the screen) and then is updated and refreshed. I wonder if there's a way to disable this caching, if that's what it actually is...
Probably handled in the LUA scripts as they describe how the page is rendered & what action do what. My suggestion is try to find the Home Page from one of the other TP versions. They don't have the flip clock.
EDIT: The newer Sense 2.1 TF3D does this as well as animated the whole BG with the Weather on the Home page anytime TF3D looses focus & gains focus back. This means when you go to a screen that is not TF3D. An example is just opening & closing the start menu on a 6.5 ROM.
A fix for the clock issue
Here is the manila file to fix the clock issue...To istall you must disable manila and then total commander this file into the windows directory of your phone

You're on to something there. Fixed the flip but screwed up the clock. Digits are all screwed up.
Any ideas?
Thanks for working on this.
(copied from the tilt2 tips/problems thread)
I don't know if anybody else is experiencing the same issue but my desire has this problem now and then. Sometimes when i move around htc sense and i will go to the helicopter view I don't see 7 home screens, just first one that is located in the top left hand corner.
When this occurs and will leave helicopter view mode my contacts widget is being funny and I can't select any contacts on it. Just Luke I said it doesn't happen very often, but still it occurs and its very frustrating. Is that ROM problem? After hard reset problem still exists.
After few minutes phone is working fine.

Had that happen once. A reset fixed it and I didn't get it again. I think it may have been one of the widgets I don't use anymore, maybe friend feed?
I've had this a few times. If I just put the phone on stand-by it seems to sort it.
I have a feeling it's the calendar widget that acts a bit funny on mine.
Widgets that I use:
1. Full screen calendar
2. Full screen mail
3. Full screen messages
4. Clock with weather + one line calendar widget + some program icons
5. Full screen contacts
6. 2 lines music player + one line power management + few programs
7. Full screen news

it is the calendar, there is somewhere another post here ...
just kill it with a taskmanager and it should work again.
btw: because the calendar is so sucky, i use now "Calendar Pad" ... actually i dropped all HTC widgets
I had this exact same problem, but did not know how to describe it.
When it happened, sometime, going into "all programs" it seems the phone tried to be in landscape mode.
I tried disabling some widget. After disabling the HTC Contact Widget, the problem never occured again.
Sometimes I get it. I just press standby then again and it fixes it.
I used to have this problem often but i havent seen it for a while now so i had forgotten about it. It may be the calendar widget like someone said, and come think of it, i havent had the problem since i moved my calendar widget to the homescreen on the far left. (used to have it just to the right of the main)
My phone inexplicably rebooted itself yesterday. After this, ALL of my Home screens were empty. So I went through the laborious process of adding everything in again (because I had no backup of home screens) and then at some point, all the original widgets suddenly came back, but behind the new widgets I'd added. So I ended up with widgets on top of widgets.
Has anyone else experienced this?
FYI I'm using LeeDroid 1.8c
Not like you, but I've seen widgets come back and overlap. Not really a problem though, you can just remove them.
have done... seemed like a weird bug, but not the end of the world...
Hey there,
I'm having some rather odd clock issues with my phone. The time is "right" but not really. I use LauncherPro and WidgetLocker. I've never had any issues with these. However, WidgetLocker has its own clock widget. It works fine half the time. The other half of the time it is one hour behind my phone time. But that's not always right either.
For example, it's 9:30PM. The widget time will say 8:30PM. A few minutes pass, and the widget time is at least an hour behind sometimes a few minutes. The system bar shows 9:30PM as well, but then once I open the keyboard or rotate the phone, it will update to the current time, let's just say something like 9:37PM.
Both the apps listed are up to date, and I'm running CM 7.2.0 RC1.
Phone is rooted, I removed a few included APKs when I flashed the ROM. Is there a certain preinstalled APK that might have been affected by my removing it that updates the time, or does anyone know a fix?
Thanks!
Okay, so everyone knows the HTC Weather app, right? Well, for the past few months, there's been this incredibly annoying glitch that keeps happening no matter if I reinstall the app, re-flash my ROM (LeeDroid 7.4.3), or what. It's just part of the app.
This glitch I'm referring to consists of the current conditions not displaying properly starting at exactly midnight and lasting until around 5-6 AM. What I mean by "not displaying properly" is that it'll show the completely wrong temperature and weather conditions...it shows conditions from the day before or something odd like that. It's like the app goes back in time. While this is happening, the other information like wind speed and visibility just have dashes next to them and no numbers. It's very weird and annoying because I can't find any mention of this in any of the app's Play Store reviews, nor via Googling.
Is this just on my end somehow, or has anyone else been experiencing this? If it's after midnight and before 5 AM where you are, can you check for me and see if it has the correct weather for you? Thanks for any answers!
