Hi guys,
Hopefully this is a known problem - I have the stock clock/weather widget on my main screen, but if I leave my phone for a while (say 10 mins) and go back in, the time widget will be stuck on the time previous to when I locked it and then change to the current time after 2 secs or so. I cant remember having this before, as I've had the desire for a week or so. I factory reset yesterday after a apps2sd fix messed with my widgets and its still doing it.
Any ideas?
Cheers.
Well mine does the same and always did. It's probably because it is not running when the phone is on standby
Cool thanks for that, its no biggy really, I just wasn't sure if it would mess with my alarm or anything.
Always done this for me on all version of Android...doesn't bother me tbh
On Sense versions with the flip clock it'll always default 1hr and 1min back so it can show the 'flip' each time you unlock the screen...
And yes alarm should be working fine
Thats good enough for me, thanks guys.
I have been trying for months now to get it to open by tapping on the widget to access the stop watch and alarms, but it does nothing. I've tried sever restarts and on charge and not, nothing makes the widget respond and open the clock app. I'm just wondering if its a known issue with the stock Verizon 2.3.4 Rom or if the fact that the phone keeps loosing track of the battery level and state is a sign that the phones dieing on me?
Thanks for any advice or insight.

This is an issue that has been going on pretty much since the Dinc2 became available.
Rooted, it's an easy fix, just go into Tibackup, and go to the clock app, and unfreeze it.
Unrooted, you will need to do a factory reset. This will fix it, but for how long, may be a week, may be more. Before I rooted, I did a factory reset, the clock lasted all of about two hours before it "froze" back up again.
Have you had any other apps go weird yet? Usually Gmail and the calender will disappear as well...
Currently the freaking power manager has been messing up so bad I had to grab a battery widget just to track my battery level since the icon up top is constantly going into "unknown" state. I've been teetering on that root/stock point for months due to slacker and amazon mp3, and most if all the gtalk not having video in my 2.3.4 Rom update. Would be nice to do...maybe I will tonight.

Just had a software update today and suddenly the clock is unfrozzen again. I don't know how long it will last this time but its usable now!

I am already starting to get full homescreen redraws more and more often all of a sudden when going back to the homescreen from an app. This is reminiscent of the same issue on all previous Android OSs and I loathe it. This also was known to happen often on LauncherPro and ADW, although I am on the stock 4.0 launcher here.
Yes, on the Nexus it recovers more quickly, but it still slows you down for a couple of seconds and looks stupid doing it.
Is anyone else who has widgets on most screens starting to experience complete redraws and have to wait a few seconds for it to recover back up to speed?? I already tried the Terminal command to save the homescreen in memory but it is still happening the same.. It's starting to happen more and more frequently.
EDIT: Ok now it's literally refreshing/redrawing the homescreen icons and widgets every single time I go into any app and hit back or home. Every time. I thought I was done with this crap on this new OS but apparently not at all. How can this be happening and all of a sudden non-stop?
Rebooted and removed the one new widget I had added today, and still, the homescreens have to re-draw before my eyes every single time I go back to them from anywhere else on the phone. WHAT THE ****.

OK, I almost had a heart attack that the phone was going to keep doing this now, but I just figured out why. I was showing my friend the phone and the options in Developer options, and I must have accidently turned on "Don't Keep Activities"...that's why Launcher would terminate every time I left it!! It closes each app when you leave it.
So make sure if this is every happening to you, you check that option!!
Sorry to sound so paranoid guys
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!
Hi, im running AndroidNow 6.1 and since i installed ot for the first time(version 3.2) my launcher crushes every once n awhile.
It happens with stock,google,nova or any other launcher - i prefer stock.
What happens really is, when i press home/back to exit an app to the homescreen,there pops the recent apps screen(with no open apps visible)and when i press home again to exit this screen , i see blank home page and then the icons refresh and everything reload. Latet when i open the app drawer i experience a little lag that the icons are reloaded also.
What seems to be the problem? Im rooted and ive got clean master but i dont think its related.
Please help me, thanks.
Am i the only one who experience this?
Happened to me few times. You are using 3rd party launcher?
Ps. You dont need clean master
i use the stock one,but it happned with all . why shouldn't i use it?
Tell me why you should?
This devices does not need that. It does more harm then use.
I love the feature that it prevents apps from starting on boot up.
Do you know how to solve my problem with the launcher crash?
I have the exact same problem.
This happened with the stock ROM and any launcher I tried.
Then I flashed a custom ROM (based on stock though), progressively reinstalled applications and after some time, the problem came again. Then, I progressively froze some applications with Titanium Backup, and now it happens much less than before (2-3 times a day against everytime I press "home").
My conclusion is that, even though that's a launcher crash we see, the fault probably comes from a background application. I'm still searching which one. Did you find something interesting since you opened the topic?
Have you installed hotmail app from play store?

What I did recently was to :
- Disable the application "LIA Informant"
- Disable the application "LIA MrGDBLogger"
- Disable the application "LIA S4URecommender"
- Clear the cache (click on Settings > Storage > Data in cache)
The problem happened several times in a day before, but only occured a few times in weeks since I did this trick. The workaround was probably clearing the cache. But since the problem gradually came back after the last time I reinitialized the phone, I'm still afraid it comes back sooner or later.
I did clear cache a few times now - it always comes back.
Would be great if someone could find a fix for that, because it's very annoying.
The bad thing is that there is no send error report option. At least there would be a starting point with an error info etc.
Have you tried disabling the applications mentionned above?
I (almost) chose them randomly, but it really made a difference for me and the problem doesn't seem to come back.
Done that just now.
Will post back with the results in some time.
Do you maybe know what those apps do ? (I like to know what I'm turning off in case of any other problems)
GDB (in the Unix world) is a debugger. I have no reason to think that this GDB is the same though, I just guessed the problem should come from a system application and this one may be one.
Turning off those apps made no difference.
Was thinking that it may be one of the widgets on the home screen.
Later today, or maybe tomorrow I'll make a list of what I'm using and post it here - maybe this way we'll get whats causing this.
The only widgets I have now are Zooper Widget and Shuttle+.
But honestly, since the problem makes any launcher crash (and I think any application left in foreground when the screen turns off), I believe the root of the problem a system app/optimization, and likely one from LG since not many people seem to complain.
I hope 5.1.1 will come soon to the G3.
Any news on any update ? (not necessarily to 5.1.1)
Udated to 20p yesterday - clean update (just to be sure I've wiped 3 times - 1 before and 2 after the update).
Had a couple of hours of peace, and then it started again.

I updated to CM 12.1 two weeks ago and never encountered this problem since then.
