Phones clock based things won't update? - Sprint LG Optimus G

Hello, I am having a rather odd problem. It seems like anything that uses time on my phone, won't update.
Whenever I check my lock screen (Pattern), the lock screen clock shows the last time I unlocked my phone, and only updates to this time I unlocked. (7:10 when it is really 8 for example. Then next time 8;01 when it really is 8:30 and so on.)
Also, it seems my widgets using time also do no update. My clock still says 7:00. (HD widgets)
Any ideas why this may happen? Multiple searches on Google did not help. Thank you in advance.

Edit; I also did reboot many times, and I have tried force stopping my alarm clock/ lock screen and widgets. Doesn't help.

Have you tried clearing caches from recovery?
What ROM are you using?
Do you have any Xposed mods installed?

I am on stock with unicon xposed module, kitkat toast back port, and advanced power menu.
I figure it out though, after wiping the cache and dalvik cache it fixed itself. I just wanna know what caused it. That is extremely weird.

That is kind of weird. I would to try to reproduce it because I too am on stock, but I am unfmamiliar with Unicon and Kit Kat toast, are those on the xda thread and not the repo?
Also, since you are also on stock: any idea how to enable emoji support in the stock messaging app? hangouts sucks, it keeps giving me flak and not downloading MMS messages.

Kitkat Toast message is in the downloads section of the closed module.
Unicon is on the play store, but it use to be a free module called "Icon Themer".
On the emoji thing; Honestly, all I did was download the Change APN app from the play store and entered the APN people were using on the ART ROM port. For some reason that one let's you use any messaging app on stock. Weird, I know but it works. Actually everything works on that APN. (I used the original one, not the others ones that said "if this one doesn't work, try this APN")
After using the APN edit, I personally use 8Sms as my texting app. It is the same as the old cm10/10.2 texting app with emoji support. Pretty awesome. Much faster than hangouts (on stock).

This APN

Sorry, one more set of pictures.
Here is the app. It also has quick reply and turn on screen when getting a message. Pretty cool.
Here is it in action working with the APN.

Thanks for the heads up, added them next to the list items
I've gotten a couple PM's that people love the ROM, and I plan on making a EC07-Nuckin-2 package.
My thoughts thus far:
New Kernel (imnuts)
Scribble boot animation
Zeam Launcher to replace TouchWiz (Zeam is super memory efficient)
Dolphin Mini to replace Browser
Better instructions, including a TAR to use with Odin
Link to alternate framework-res.apk (trailblazer's) to restore the buttons
What do you think would make this ROM cooler/faster/awesome...er?
Any eta for the new ROM I'm trying to decide if I should go ahead and flash the first one or wait for 2

I flashed this rom a few days ago, and so far it is great. I love how clean and fast it is.
The only problems I have had are some issues it apps FCing. I use these apps daily and was wondering if anybody has had any luck fixing FC problems? I would hate to do it, but if I can't get these apps working right I might have to reflash DL17 again.
Here are some of the apps I have come across so far that FC every time:
-Wells Fargo Mobile
-Stock Android Browser
-Movies
I am sure there are other, but these are the only ones that I have found so far that I use on a regular basis. If anybody has any insight on this it would be great.

I had the same problem with Browser, I just switched to Dolphin Mini HD but I understand you can't really do that with the other 2 apps you listed. Is it just my ROM you've had this issue with or all EC03 and EC07 ROMs?
I've had the same issue. It's been with all versions of ec07 though. some ec03 as well (if memory serves me correctly) I swapped to dolphin browser and haven't had any trouble.

Can I assume you wiped dalvik on install? If so, I'd start by clearing data on each of the affected apps in settings/applications/manage applications. And if that fails, try deleting the apps themselves, along with any data stored on SD card and reinstall fresh. Generally fc issues are due to the way the app interacts with the system.

Yeah, the browser is not that big of a deal, I switched to Opera and like it alot better than stock anyway. I ran the clean EC07 first before I switched to your rom, but I only had it on for a couple of hours so I don't know if that one had the FC issues as well. I don't think there is enough difference between the two to cause these issues. Yours is just more debloated.

Yes, I wiped cache, dalvik cache, and did factory reset/wipe data before I installed the rom, then wiped the caches again after just to be sure. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling all the apps I was having problems with. I will try clearing the app data and removing data from SD card tonight and let yall know if anything changes.
---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------
Ok, tried clearing data, uninstalling, wiping SD card, and reinstalling apps. Didn't work, they are all three still FCing. I think it has something to do with them accessing network/data. Browser doesn't FC until I try to load a page, Wells Fargo doesn't FC until I try to log in, and Flixter movies FCs as soon as I open it. All thee times they are trying to use network. Doesn't matter if I am on 3G for Wifi.
Just a thought, I don't know if that actually has anything to do with it.
One more thought, is it possible to have your phone hooked up to ADB in usb debugging while running an app to see why it is getting a force close?

I'm pretty sure you can use the command logcat for that

Yes. As circa said, logcat
Commands are as follows
Adb shell
(it will start daemon. Once that is done, you will get a hashtag)
Logcat
(wait for it to scroll, then after it settles down, start the affected app)

[Q] about MIUI WIP ROM: version 2.0??

question: version 2.0 of what??
The ROM.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
Is there a download link? the one on the actual post says it isn't working. Also, am I suppose to install 2.0 then install the latest version right?
Not to jump in on the MIUI questions, but I have one as well...
I rely a lot on Go SMS because of its individual notification settings for different contacts. In the previous version of this rom, though, the stock messaging app was overriding Go SMS's settings no matter if it was selected as the default messaging app. Anybody else have this problem and can offer a solution?

I haven't tried it with GO SMS, but to get TabletTalk to work I had to disable MMS Priority in the MIUI messaging settings. If you haven't tried that already, I suggest trying that.
I know it's not a definite fix, but I figured an idea is better than nothing

I tried this ROM out today as well and did not flash to 2.0 first.
I only made sure to factory rest/wipe cache/dalvik and then format system, data, cache and sdcard.
After that, I flashed from external sdcard the latest version of the ROM and had no issues (aside from the usual needing to reboot the phone once to restore data connectivity).
I hope this helps :fingers-crossed:
Might as well ask another general MIUI question....lol.
Most other ROM's handle Google Voice integration pretty well. For example, when I place a phone call, my call log shows the person's actual number, not the random number Google used to make the integration work.
With MIUI, though, my call log shows that random number instead. Anybody happen to know why that's to case, and if there's a way around it?
Thanks!

Google Stock Dialer/Contacts apks

Here's the stock google dialer and contacts app I pulled from my nexus 6 when i had it. It's not the motorola framework dialer and contacts, but pure google stock. They are in separate folders. I've also have a few that I've pulled from the web as well. I hate the ugly skin that lg uses, and miss the true material look from Google.
You HAVE to be rooted for these to even remotely work. Use root explorer or whatever app you use, mount rw and install as system apk (go to system>priv-app). Folder will need rwxr-xr-x permissions. Give app r-r-rw permissions. So far, contacts are working and I've gotten the google in-call ui to work by placing the apk in the lg in-call ui after renaming the original lg-ui. Can't get the dialer to install. LG skin is deeply rooted in thier framework, so it's kind of a pain. I'll keep digging into this to make some progress. In the mean time, if anyone else wants to chip in and help out, please do so.
In the link to my drive folder there will be 4 files. One of them is a flashable zip named GoogleContactsDialer (credits to whoever put this zip together. Wasn't me). Another should be the dialer in non flashable zip, and the other files are the respective standalone apks. I would suggest flashing the flashable zip, as it has the libs folder included.
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Byd-3B8ICYfpY1hqODhhMzd4S3M&usp=sharing
**UPDATE**
Ok everyone, I have a quick second to give an update (getting up at 0430 is killing me right now lol) on things in reference to the dialer. Make sure you are using the flashable zip. The separate apks are ok, but the zip makes things easier.
Basically most hassle free method I have used to get it to be the primary dialer and contacts app is by using TB to freeze these 2 LG Dialer and Contact applications that are listed below.
*Call 4.60.79.10
*Contacts 4.56.18
I'm using KLWP and Nova for most of my homescreens. I'm linking the Google dialer apk to whatever phone KLWP icon using Nova Activities>Google Dialer>Phone(com.android.dialer.DialtactsActivity; make sure you select this one). For those that use Zooper, the same method would apply.
In reference to getting the dialer icon to show up in the app drawer on its own, I'm still working on that.

Glad it worked for you. I used the flashable zip, but can't get the dialer to install. What did you to get it running? The contacts app works for me, but like you said the LG UI takes control sometimes. I may remove the LG call/contacts apks and see if google will run by default. Of course, I'll back everything up before I do.

Sorry guys that I've been MIA. Work and personal life have been really busy. I didn't remove the LG apk but just froze them with TB. So far the LG Contacts app doesn't override which is good, and I've set Google Contacts as my default. I'm trying True Caller but honestly don't like it. The Google dialer kicks in but it's random, and it doesn't show in my Nova app drawer. I'll get back to working on this when things slow down for me.

I wonder if one you that's had success with this might be able to offer some assistance...I flashed the Google contacts and dialer zip and froze the two LG files recommended by the OP and all call functionality was disabled.

Like you said, it is working - mostly. I no longer see the dreaded LG dialer (yippee!) but a couple of minor anomalies remain.
On an incoming call I do not get a full scree caller id and swipe to answer as I did on the N4 device;
Like you, I had to use Nova to create the desktop icon (which is no big deal I suppose);
When I bring up the dialer I see a "Speed Dial" tab but I don't see all my favorites (starred contacts). I tried clearing cache and data for the dialer but is not showing me the same starred contacts as the Contacts app;
Other than the above it seems to work quite well.
[ EDIT ] It seems that there is a difference between the contacts storage that LG maintains and what Google Contacts/Dialer maintains. I cleared data and cache for both, the LG Dialer and the LG Contacts app - note that in my case they were both frozen so I had to use ROM Toolbox to do this - and had the system re-sync contacts with Google. All of the sudden ALL my favorites show up as expected and, incoming caller Id is now displaying as it did on the old Nexus 4. Yippee! Apparently some minor issues can be corrected by reinitializing the contacts database on the phone.

Did you start out with a clean, well working system or could it have remnants of previous attempts to install a dialer? Most of my troubles came from the fact that I missed to clean somethng up from a previous attempt.
Essentially, I did not do much different from the OP. Starting with a clean system (I backup frequently with TWRP when I experiment with new things!) I flashed the zip file, rebooted, created the desktop icon for phone, froze the 2 LG modules with TiBu. I also copied the Google Dialer apk to the LGInCallUI folder in priv-app and renamed (but not deleted) the LG version which did not seem to make any difference to usage (I was hoping for a full screen caller Id).
As noted above, it seems to be working quite nicely with the 3 1 caveats I listed.

Phone app won't wake screen!!!!

This is driving me crazy!!!
When my phone is off sitting on a table and it rings, the screen does not come on. Just sound. I thought it was the theme, so I removed it from the dialer app and that didnt help. I removed the update in the Playstore and the screen comes on again when it rings. I removed auto update for the app, but what could be the reason the updated app isn't working for me?

Your issue has been reported by several others as well. They are doing the same thing you are to make it work. Would recommend you log complaint on play store under the phone app and see what happens. I truly think Google does this to jack with the themeers!

Stock, but I can't take it anymore, so I removed the update and installed Simpler dialer. I can't even disable the stock dialer or the screen won't come on. It's just been removed as default at this point.
I just read reviews for the app and tons of people are reporting it. What a joke!!!

I don't know if this will help or not, but a couple weeks or so ago, the Google phone app was giving me trouble with themeing. It was due to the fact that the theme was actually ahead of the Google update(go figure). So another user figured it out and linked me to the phone app on apk mirror. So I uninstalled the phone app, downloaded the apk mirror version from December 14th, installed it, and it worked great with my theme. What's more is that even after the update from Google, I'm not having the issue that you are, or many others for that matter. Here's the link if you want to give it a go. Can't promise anything, but what the heck :good:

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-phone/google-phone-15-0-179075669-release/
I installed it and applied the theme and it worked. Since the latest update, it doesn't. The version you posted is different than the one he did. I'm half tempted to try it, but at this point I have all the updates off the phone app and using a different dialer and it's working.
Also, how are you uninstalling the stock phone app...all I can do is uninstall the updates and disable.?

I uninstalled it using my root explorer. I just delete the apk, reboot, and gone. Have to be rooted though. If nothing else, just install the apk, then if you wind up with 2 phone apps, just disable or freeze the bad one. Or, just do what your currently doing. The updates aren't that big a deal anyways :good:

Figured it was a root thing. I can't root my phone due to work email MDM detecting it and harassing me. Going to try your suggestion. Much appreciated

Just tried it. Once I apply theme, phone won't light up. Deleted 3rd party dialer, removed theme from dialer you provided. Now I'm using the Google dialer you gave me in stock white blinding form. A bit pissed...
I have the same issue. In my case I have a gear s3, and if I disconnect the bluetooth, when the call is coming the screen turn up normally, but if the gear is connected, the screen stays black..Additional, when you take a call or do a call, the sound automatically is route to the bluetooth device, I have to habilitate the sound in the phone manually. I think it was with the January update or the phone app last update, because other people have the same issue in their android devices. The solution for now is go to Play Store, search Phone app for Google, uninstall the updates, then go to settings in the phone - Apps - Phone, and clear the cache and data, force stop of the app. The phone app come back to another version (12.1...) which doesn't have this issue, after that the calls working normally. I hope for a fix from Google...

Delayed Whatsapp notifications

Hi guys i just installed Crdroid pie rom, is a nice rom i really like the customization, the problem is that my notifications for Whatsapp are delayed, don't really know if it is the same for other apps. I got the doze for google play sevices module for magisk, i removed greenify because i thought this app was messing with this, i removed whatsapp from battery optimization, but nothing works. To clarify, i had all this configuration on Leedroid rom and never got this problem. Any idea on how to solve this?
Thanks

You would probably get better assistance from the Crdroid ROM thread. Asking here you would need someone who has that ROM to help. You will have better luck with that on the Crdroid thread

oh ok, just want to know if anyone got this problem in pie, cause i´ve seen that some people has this problem with pie, in the pixel 2. But you're right maybe is the rom problem or my config problem, thanks

Did you by any chance restore a whatsapp backup from Titanium Backup? I know when I did that, I would miss tons of notifications and had reinstall whatsapp and restore chats via the app's own backup and restore function.

No, i just installed from play store and didn't did the backup from the app. Now i did a hard reset but i think that the problem still there, this time i didn't install any mods or change any config.
Is so annoying, the messages are delayed to 5 or more minutes, and sometimes they doesn't show until i open whatsapp.
I've seen this app as optimized in the battery configs: com.google.android.gms.setup
Sorry guys but im such a noob

Sounds like maybe you don't have the app set to allow background data usage..?
I don't use the app myself, but that's what I would check.
Go to*Settings > (may be under network and internet)Tap Data Usage > Tap Mobile data usage > Select WhatsApp*> Tap Background data to enable if unchecked*(path may vary slightly depending on OS version and rom)

i tried it before but don't change anything. I looked on stanby apps on developer options and whatsapp appear like "EXEMPTED" other apps like the messaging one appear like "ACTIVE". In background check whatsapp doesn't show, would it has to show the app or maybe change the stanby status to ACTIVE? Thanks guys

I've trying a lot of things, and i get to the conclution that is there's no problem with battery optimization because i disable Doze by adb and the messages still delayed. I think is ram managment, a very aggressive behavior of it, whatsapp just don't work in background, gets killed by system just a few minutes after being open don't know if it is caused by the rom or by pie. Gonna try another pie rom to see if that solves my problem, if not, i'm gonna have to back to oreo
