Hi all,
I am new to SE and new to android ,the problem what i face is in desktop i have digital clock widget and it shows different time from the time set in settings and what displayed in top right corner , also when phone is locked when a key press is made i am able to see correct time.
i have unchecked automatic option in date & time settings.
how to solve this problem ?
Time in settings and top corner: 9:21
Time in digital clock widget : 3:51
Thanks in advance
that happened to me but it fixed it self so no idea
maybe you used a taskkiller and killed the app responsable for the widgets updates?
i didnt use task killer..any fix?
You haven't got it set to display a different time-zone do you?
sorry for late reply ....switched off and on fixed the problem
Hi,
I faced the same problem over the last few days... the clock just sometimes seems out of sync with the system clock. Pretty annoying.
Removing and re-adding the widget helps, but that's just a useless fuss.
I'm trying the reboot and see if it sticks now.
Regards,
cherryfish
Edit: just to make it clear, I'm using the digital clock widget that's on the Homescreen by default.
only get that problem with BobClockD3, no problem with another clock widget.
It also happened to me. I just reset the time and all will have same tume.

Hi everyone
My clock just gets stuck randomly.
Now the mini clock in the notification bar says 23:36
My analog clock widget, 06:15
My lock screen, 06:02
Now, if I open the clock app tells me the real time (06:30) and the lock screen gets updated.
The widget must be removed and replaced and the top right clock is stuck at all.
What should I do? If I reboot after a bit this happens again.

Hello, you are advised to disable / uninstall your automatic task killer (which could come as installed application or script such as v6supercharger) as this problem is caused by your task killer killing system app which maintains your system clock.
I also encountered this problem twice - although i am not running any of those task killers / scripts.
I guess its a CM9 bug, quick googling gave the result that it happens on all kind of phones running CM9, here the S2 for example
As mentioned in the thread, setting the time manually might help. But as te problem is difficult to reproduce (and therefore proving a possible solution is also difficult), i will stay with automatic by now.
maybe you had just cleaned the ram, so many widget stops
same

same with me......
now i set my time automatically
same Problem with cm 10.1 on galaxy s3
How about going to your apps and deleting data and cache in the clock app? Did you try this already? I only experienced this one time after restoring a backup and only for a couple of secounds till it synced with my phone line, so also check if you allowed to set the time automatically.
Right now my clock (beautiful widgets) is stuck at 8:58, when it's actually 18:36. My agenda widget and calendar widgets won't update if I add tasks, and I can't refresh them. The clock in the taskbar at the top of the screen is correct.
The widgets get stuck like this once or twice a week, and a restart fixes it.
Anybody else had this issue, or knows what the cause may be?
not had this issue or read about anybody else experiencing this.
My gmail widget does this all the time. Keeps showing old unread messages which I actually have read. Apps is fine.
Clock has never got stuck though.
Btw do we have a fix yet for laggy scrolling on android widgets
do you often end all tasks in task manager? if yes ,that could be the problem

^^One possibility
I have had my Poweramp widget fail to do anything from time to time. The task manager must be ending the task required for it to run. Some apps have an option to stop task managers closing them.

I do, yes. Could that be doing me more harm than good? I'll lay off it for a while and see if the problem is less regular.
Disable the WinAmp widget and restart your device, don't kill the tasks for a while.
I think that's the best you can do for test.

I can reproduce this at will on my HOX. I've opened a case with HTC on it too. It *appears* that this is being caused by HTC's super-duper agressive task killing (it's a feature, not a bug), killing off sleeping processes that keeps widgets with live data updated. After a reboot, facebook widget legs me gleefully scroll through posts, beweather can be updated by clicking "update", and the power control widget will change the "light" under the button based on the state of that which the button drives, however after using the phone for awhile, loading/unloading apps and whatnot, the memory falls below the threshold and the in-built task killer goes to town and hangs up a good deal of apps and then the widgets are frozen until the next reboot. I know the interface isn't frozen because any widget with a shortcut (touch and run something) still works, and the facebook widget registers a scroll "touch" by the arrow highlighting, but the data never changes, so it has to be something behind the scenes that went away and shouldn't have.
If anyone has any other suggestions as to a cause, let me know, I'll happily pass on to HTC in my case with them.

I got the exact same problem, but only on the CM9.1 (which according to the development thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706001 has been incorrectly tagged as Alpha 8 on the Cyanogenmod download site). The widgets are frozen, but are interactive - if I touch my frozen Beautiful Widget the weather page appears. If I touch the buttons on my frozen Apollo music player widget, it plays/pause/skips music tracks etc but the widget itself doesn't get updated. A restart of the launcher (Settings --> Launcher --> Homescreen, and then exit the Settings app by pressing back back back) fixes the issue... for a while, before the widgets eventually get stuck again. See screenshot (note actual time vs Beautiful Widgets time).
Searched the forums, the CM9 thread and on Google elsewhere but no one else seem to have the same issue. Very puzzling. One guy has a similar issue but it got solved when he switches off "Forced GPU rendering", which didn't work for me. Would appreciate any help!
Cheers,
Kelvin

had same prob a while ago, installed ROM Toolbox and under 'performance overview' clicked on auto memory manager/presets/...>mild<... ticked apply on boot and apply, rebooted and bingo no more freezing widgets.
it may be that simple for you (or maybe not) give it a shot why not?.. hehe

Thank you! It did help greatly in minimising the problem, but it hasn't stopped it totally. In the last 12 hours since implementing your suggestion, the widgets had frozen once, and I noticed it after I was streaming some videos. I'm guessing the video streaming triggered the "OMG we need more RAM, KILL THE WIDGETS!" response of the OS but other than that the widgets are ticking along happily.
Would be great if there's a more permanent solution to this, but I'm guessing this would require the CM developers looking into it.
Cheers! :good:
Ah. Well, after web browsing (which strangely causes the HTC One X to heat up more than I'd expect it to), the widgets are back to being stuck. I guess the ROM is not quite ready, but being a new user I can't feedback to the development thread on my experience with the ROM.
Perhaps I'll head back to a Sense-based ROM. (The Jellybean ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763240 is excellent, but MX Player on s/w decoding doesn't have audio, and Beautiful Widgets disappear upon reboot or USB connect...)
Cheers again for your help, beanbean50.
Have same issue with multiple widgets. Anyone close to finding a solution? Or do we have to wait for the next OTA update?

I'm using a Motorola Atrix 2(ICS) and have the same issue , it's not just task killer i guess , when you uninstal /freeze some system apps this can happen , and if you're using a custom launcher (nova prime to me) , just restart the launcher and they'll start working again , sometimes you have to restart the launcher twice , you can't do this if you're using a stock launcher obvious
I've seen this question asked a few times before on here but no one seems to ever respond to it. Thought id give it a try. I love zooper but I cant stand the fact that the time on my digital clock always stops. for example I can check the time at 2:30 pm and the clock in my widget says its 9:27 am. Refreshing the widget only helps every once in a while. What causes this time freezing and is there anyway to stop/fix the issue. Thanks!

Do you use any kind of RAM cleaner or app hibernater (i.e. Greenify)? Those would be my first culprits to look for if background updates of a widget don't work.
Hi,
i got a strange problem with my S4 mini (I9195) with CM11 (20140505; snapshot M6).
On my device the clock in the status bar and the widget one stops working every now and then. This doesn't apply to the lockscreen-clock. If i rotate the screen, the clocks get updated and show the correct time - the clock keeps frozen though (it doesn't work further until the next screen-rotation).
I've got the date+clock set automatically via network. If i set it manually, the status bar clock gets updated, but not the widget (just unticking "auto set clock" is not enough, i have to "set clock".). Still, the clock won't keep working, it will just stay frozen till the next rotation.
I found already a few descriptions of this phenomenon on the internet, but nothing here on xda and no solution either.
Please, if anybody knows a solution, it would be most welcome.
regards,
d4foasta
if my problem isn't that difficult to solve or if i made some error i don't know it. Do i have to post logs? I came here because i have a problem with my s4 mini and i can't post in the developer-thread.

There was this issue in the s3 mini forum too, i think they said it's cm11 related.. you can check this thread for their solutions, some deleted a file etc. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2521593
It's a very common problem there
Did you ever solve this? I'd rather not sift through 500 pages of comments to find the solution, I'm having the same issue.
