Widgets not updating - Why? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hey guys, I have a weird problem going on. My widgets are not updating at all. For example, I have a Beautiful Widgets clock, which the hours/minutes stay frozen at the boot time. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
FYI, I upgraded to Illusion (4.1.2) yesterday, and I am using ktoonsez kernel. Also, i'm using Nova launcher if that is any help.
P.s. Since owning my GS3 I can't recall this happening (until tonight), but it happened on my Vibrant quite a bit... seems like the problem has come back to bite me in the butt.

Do you use a task manager? Might be killing them

So I am using slash 4.1.2 and it includes nova. I had the same exact problem, even after rebooting. So I went in to manage apps to try force closing nova, I didn't expect much but it worked. Haven't had the issue since.

Interesting. Its working so far. Thanks. I wonder why this would happen in the first ace though... And out of no where, too.

And that is why the OP details are always important.. Would have save a few clicks of the mouse.
See it on a few devices so unless someone is willing to port it over and test.. but the short search of ports looks like a TW base would be the way you'd have to go. Breaks the actual puzzle and all you'd get is a touch location.. Desire Z folks, sidekickers, mezmorized peeps, Evos.. failed.
Seeing how it's on the Galaxy S, maybe someone here will try.
Sorry misread that I will check into it

Not trying to be disrespectful, but I'd never would have suggested an app if the OP would have stated you were on CM10. Hopefully you can uninstall it and get back to normal.
Ask for a port, revamp your OP. State your current setup, details, and what you're looking for. It never hurts to ask and it never hurts to provide as many details as you can.

This would have been an awesome lock screen but I hate the lag you get from running apps to cover the stock lockscreen.

I'm not exactly sure which rom you will be running, but if it's a little jittery, try rebooting your phone first. If it still persists, go to Settings, then under Developer's Options, change Window Animation Scale and Transition Animation Scale to 0.5x. That should help a bit. If you still have problems, it may just be how the rom/launcher is
It sucks cuz its fast with jitter..thought this launcher posed go be with no bugs lol

try disabling hw overlays
Alrrady did..my s2 did the same thing when upgraded to ics..the thing is i had an htc one x with same launcher and it didnt lag...weird lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Hmm TW launcher is flawless for me. Never get a single lag. Thats why i use it as my launcher.
Everything else usually has a slow down...especially Nova. Dont know why its so popular, it isnt great.
If i were to actually use another home launcher it would be apex....thats been the next best thing to TW. But i have no need for that either.

The other changes you won't see. They updated the voice recognition software for better accuracy. Hopefully now it will understand less common words easier than before. Too bad they can't get licensing to use dragon speech recognition that software works great it can understand almost anything even with a ton of background noise and a heavy accent

SVoice isn't a simple apk to start with... It relies on stuff inside the stock Twiz ROM to work right.
It could be they blocked us... It could also be they are internally testing new build that does things differently server side.

It's installed as an update. Just uninstall the updated Svoice and the stock will revert.

Phone very laggy?

I'm currently running the note s4 rom. My phone will randomly lock up and get terribly laggy. I was on the newest stock ota and decided to flash the note s4 rom. The phone still acted like this on the stock rom also. I've still got lag and freezing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't you think this belongs in your roms thread. Rather than in question forum. Go over there and talk about your problems WITH THE ROM YOU'RE USING.

If you read his post he says it happens on stock as well. So before Flaming someone maybe at least know what's going on.
Op, is there something that makes it happen? Specific apps, something like that?

Try to do a clean wipe and clean install again. It might help with it being laggy. I usually do a full wipe and clean install every 2 months, even when using the same rom, That's just me.
POWERED by the MASTER!
Ive tried odining back to complete stock and wiping everything and then flashing the rom. It seems to do it at random. A reboot seems to fix the issue for a few hours. It's only done it once or twice so far today.

No it seems to do it at complete random. I normally dont keep that many apps open at one time on my phone.
