Using EA16, PnP .2 and Splash of Color, my clock is always about 10 minutes slow by the end of the day on my mesmerize. Is anyone else seeing this? A reboot fixes it, and disabling the network time sync and handling it manually doesn't seem to help.
I use beautiful widgets and its always spot on. My girlfriend has a stock 2.2 desire on uscc and both her sense clock and my bw clock are the same. Another widget that I've used and its free is SiMi, its in the market as well.
I haven't had any issues either
Ive had that. I downloaded clocksync from the market and set it up to resync every six hours. I had that problem with EA11. I haven't tried EB16 without clocksync so I don't know if I still have the problem or not. But now I can set it and forget it.

So I'm still trying to figure out... is this a theme, a mod, or an app?
Just bustin balls, but it probably should have been posted in General to get the exposure that it needs. BTW, I haven't seen this on any of the flashes that I have done either.
Great question, I'm trying to figure out the same, or if it's just a network issue. I use an authenticator to log into a game I play, and I noticed the codes it was giving me stopped working. That's when I noticed my time was off.
I downloaded the "Clocksync" app recommended by gr4ybu5h (thanks!) and it seems to be keeping things synced.
My apologies if this is the wrong forum, I just noticed the issue after I flashed the Splash of Color pack, so figured it'd be a good place to start.
I haven't noticed this on my phone. but my boss who has a totally stock Mesmerize has this problem continually. Weird...

Hello, all. Couldn't find anything on this elsewhere, so...
Was listening to all the raves about Handcent, so DL'd it from the Market on my EVO & have been using it for several days. Pretty good app & seems all the reviews were pretty much spot-on.
However, last night, when launching the app & selecting a message, my phone shut down & power-cycled. Waited on the phone to boot, went back into the app, selected another message & it happened again.
Hasn't happened since, but the only thing I know is different is that I also DL'd the text-to-speech add-on from the Market.
Anyone else experienced this?
Thanks to all the members & devs for their contributions, insights & info!

I wouldn't blame Handcent for that. The EVO (and most HTC phones) have a reputation for randomly restarting sometimes.

Understood. Wasn't really "blaming" Handcent, but wondering if anyone else had the same experience since both times I was using that app & trying to select messages to read.
Never had that happen when I was just using the stock SMS app.
If it happens again you might be on to something, but I've never had any problems with Handcent in 7 months.

Thanks, Biles. I've read lots of posts by users that have had nothing but good things to say about Handcent, which is why I was so surprised. Since my post(s), I haven't had this reoccur.
Something else has happened a few times, however. Intermittently, the secondary characters on the keyboard won't pop up. For instance, long-pressing the "c" for an apostrophe or the "k" for a question mark only results in a "c" or "k" being typed on the screen. The only way I've been able to get it to work again is to PC the phone.
While they're probably not related, I haven't had this happen since the latest OTA update from Sprint, but time will tell, I guess.
Thanks for the feedback.
i can help i had this issue to,my problem was that i set a notfication sound from my sd i even had to re flash what i did was i added all to tones i wanted in media in there respective folders in the rom i hope this helps
I am using Handcent and I dont have this issue...however my timestamp is off and even if I set -5 hours, it still doesnt work
as goofy as this sounds, you might want to try a battery pull. or an uninstall and reinstall of hand cent
I've never had any probs with it either in the month I have used it
are you running JIT on your ROM?
Anyone in Canada (or outside) experiencing the same? Past 2 days it has been stuck, even manual refresh won't work. Possible problem with connection with Accuweather?
Another issue:
Now that I have a folio case my gps compass is always asking to the do a figure 8 which I refuse because it is silly and gay.
I don't know that my weather widget has ever really updated. I'm in Ohio. 95% of the time when I manually update it doesn't work either. Not sure what's wrong with it but I don't usually use it. This carried over from my old TF with a bad screen to my new one.

That's the problem with stock apps if there are changes made with the 3rd party source it takes an entire firmware change to correct the issue with the stock app. Wish they went thru market so fixes can be made on the fly. The problem of leaving it open is it is draining batt everytime it checks for an update and can't get thru.
I think there is a connection problem with Accuweather and for me this occured after 3.2. Oh, well I removed the app and went with Palmary.
Its really unfortunate that this widget sucks! It's a nice design (without having to buy Beau. Widgets, that most people seem to agree, as a lot of screen shot posts seem to have it.
Mine lags behind severely in updating, and when it does, it's inaccurate.
I've had a few android phones, but so far I have not run into this issue with any of them. I am running stock + root (though the issue was happening before root) and every once in a while I'll notice an icon is missing from one of my home screens.
Typically, it's been my Scrabble icon that goes missing. Sometimes it will be TouchDown or Words With Friends that disappear, or it will be a widget. Has anyone encountered this?
I've tried doing a reset of the phone, but still run into the same thing after a few days. I have checked to make sure that an update was not done to the app, turned off auto-updates for any of the affected programs that I've noticed so far, but still I find that the icon disappears.
I'd appreciate any input as to a way to find out when/how the icon was deleted from the screen. Since I'm the only one that uses my phone, I don't think it's being dropped accidentally by someone else. I do know that I have used an app's icon before going to bed, but when I wake up the next day, it or one of the others that was there is gone.
Have you moved any of these apps to the SD card?

Nope, not running anything from the SD card. I use it mainly for moving music and the occassional movie between two different devices.
That was happening to me too on stock 2.3.6 but after I flashed sky ics ROM it fixed it

it has happened on every single rom. including skyics....skyics does it the least out of any ROM I've used...but it still does it...i have 155 apps installed...every other reboot I end up with 150 or less....
and I could reboot again...and lose more apps...i have to reinstall them...sometimes they will all come back after a reboot
NONE are moved to SD, default install location.
this is the only droid that has done that...it's really weird.
I am wondering if anyone else has seen this. I have had my phone for over a month, and love it, normally DO NOT like widgets but I must say Circles is cool. So I have been running circle widget since I bought the phone, and have had no issue. One NIGHT about 10pm i unlocked my phone to see the weather in my area was SUNNY and 40. As I looked out the windows, I would say moony but not sunny. After further looking, I found that if I turned of use location in the weather settings, and put my city there, updating worked fine. I don't mind this, but I like the use location cause as I travel from place to place, I have a quick look at the weather for where I am as opposed to having to change cities. Any Thoughts? I hopped that the JB OTA might fix this, but it did not seem to.
I noticed my maxx hd doing this same exact thing a few days ago. It normally works great and updates very quickly but the last few days its been getting stuck for some reason. A few reboots seemed to straighten it out for now.
Sounds dumb, but try pulling that widget off your screen, and clearing app data/cache in app manager. Reboot, then put it back on. Sounds like it could be a cache error.
Installed Beans 8 recently and Ive been having my phone be awake at precise intervals overnight. it seems like every 15 minutes. Ive checked my settings and cant find anything that I wouldve done to cause it. Ive neverhad this issue. btw, im running KT747 kernel
aynway, I bought and installed betterbattrystats after searching for help. Im at a loss at the moment. The readings are a little too advanced for me. I dont know the difference between a good wake up and a bad one. Are there common causes for this?
Is there a better way to narrow this down? I deleted the apps I dont use hoping that one was rogue and doing this, but I dont think thats it. The only thing I could think of off the top of my head was that I recently upgraded to nova prime and i am using the unread counter that Nova uses. could that be scanning for notifications constantly?
Any help appreciated. I love this ROM. its by far my favorite taht ive flashed so far, i dont want to flash somethign else. Im sure its something I did.
thanks in advance. If its neccesary ill post up my Betterbatterystats tomorrow after I run through a charge cycle during the day tomorrow.
bumping this up for screen shots. I put this down before i went to bed, and checked when i woke up. I set an alarm before going to sleep, thats all i did. i think my phone being awake has to do with the maps app. how can i control this? ive never had this happen before?
GPS has been off and googles location service is all that I keep on. it looks like its updating at regular intervals. is this google now? Its not a huge drain, but its enough that ive noticed it. any help appreciated.
in the meantime, i cleared data/cache, uninstalled and reinstalled maps.
That looks pretty normal. You may want to post the better battery stats info, it may help. Also for location waking your phone up, open maps, go to settings, location settings and disable report location from this device.

I am too lazy to type everything. Download gscript from the play store and create a script that mirrors the picture. Save and run it. Once it completes there will be a txt file on /sdcard so open it up and sift through the entries till you find a line that says Alarm Stats. After that line just see if any entries have a large number beside alarms
