Time not synced.

My Inspire time is going 10 minutes ahead even though I have auto time based on network selected.
Any idea what might be causing this?

You are not the only one. My alarm woke me up earlier then it should have. Try rebooting the phone and see what happens.

Here's my reply from a similar thread:

This is not an inspire / DHD specific problem. I still haven't heard the cause of this yet, but there are people in North America using Sprint that have confirmed their clocks are wrong also.
A reboot fixed this for me last night, and it seems to be fine so far today
Are you in the eastern time zone as well?

Thanks for quick reply. I did reboot and it helped but soon after same thing happened. Now I have unchecked the auto time box.

When I manually set my time, I'll get a spontaneous reboot roughly 25% of the time.

I'm in central and this is happening to me as well. A few other guys in the core droid thread have mentioned it too.

I've just had this start too. Go to market and install clock sync.

I don't want to install another application just for this. I guess NIST must be having some issues.

Same, I didn't even realize it til after I left my house 10 minutes early this morning and my car and watch both disagreed with my phone. Hasn't happened since, though.

I did the same yesterday and has worked since

Happened to me this morning... really screwwed with my mind as the clock app and the notification bar were showing two different times... It didn't help that the power was out in the neighborhood, and I was relying exclusively on my phone's alarm clock this morning.
Haven't seen it happen since this morning.

Happened to me today its the second time this week. Got to work and had my boss check his stock EVO which was suffering the same problem. I reset it by un-checking the automatic time update and then rechecking it.

LTE issues (no LTE after Phone Info)

Well to save battery I ran across a post on Droid Life about an app turns off LTE since we don't have a setting for that. The app is called Phone Info. I was able to switch it to 3G but now I can't get LTE back. I tried to select "LTE/CDMA/EVDO" but it doesn't stick. It keeps going back to "CDMA Auto (PRL). I tried rebooting and even wiping the phone but nothing. Any help guys?

In the phone info, switch it, then select turn radio off, then turn it back on. Has worked for me in the past.

It's been discussed around here pretty extensively but it's an issue with Bean's rom (mb synergy too, I don't know) but once it is switch off lte/cdma/evdo you can't switch it back .
When it happened to me, the only thing that fixed it was nandroiding back to my stock/rooted rom, changing it and then reflashing beans and leaving everything alone.

I just did this today and just switched back to lte with no issues whatsoever it went straight to 4g.

The other night simply I opened this app and lost all data on beans b6...It was as if the app glitched because the screen glitched and bam, data/voice was gone... so I went to device info and the app automatically changed my device to wcdma preferred wtf? I got 3g back by switching to cdma, but still no LTE even after switching to lte/cdma/evdo...
So I ended up having to reprovision my device by dialing: *2767*3855#
This will wipe data so have a nandroid ready, but it should restore LTE...atleast it did for me.

On Beans? It works on stock, but hasn't worked on Beans. mb it got fixed in B7 though.

Similar issue here. I flashed CM10 last night. My 4g worked for about 10 minutes, but it dropped 2 times within 5 minutes, then for good. I rebooted to see if it would come back, no luck. Went back to a restore, same thing. Got phoneinfo and I can get data only on LTE/WCDMA and LTE/GSM/WCDMA. LTE/CDMA/Evdo shows no data, and roaming. Can't seem to get 3g at all. Phone won't even show as activated in CM.
update: Droidstyle's fix seems to have worked. Too scared to play around with the preferred network or CM now though

Avoid jellybomb theme and beans rom if you use the phone info app

even doing the whole reprovision thing has not allowed me to go back to lte/cdma/evdo.. im still stuck at either gsm or cdma auto prl... this is getting really annoying...

[Q] Phone Dead after Unlocking Bootloader

Using the program here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835791
I tried to unlock my bootloader. Everything seemed to go fine until the program said the phone was rebooting.
The display went dark as if rebooting but never came back on. Since that moment I can't get the phone to power up at all. I can't get into recovery or download mode. The screen doesn't seem to even try to come on. The phone acts as if it has no battery installed even though the battery is there.
Anyone have any suggestions or do I have a legit brick?

Could be a major detail that some might overlook. That'd for sure do it. I got rid of my OG few weeks ago n I'm still stock so I wouldn't know this, but doesn't the process only take like 10 seconds if that? The actual flashing that's taking place. So it'd have to be quite the odds to lose juice in the middle of flashing. But wouldn't it be charging if its plugged in usb? I hope that my man who posted this gets it powered back up. Would be a major bummer otherwise.

Yes I have tried it without the battery. Right now I'm letting it sit without any battery or power to it to allow all components to discharge. I'll try it again in a couple of minutes.

I'm beginning to think I've got a real live or rather dead brick.

Just to make sure you read and followed all steps right? This one seemed crucial
**** IF YOU HAVE ANY PROGRAMS THAT SYNC WITH YOUR PHONE THEY NEED TO BE UNINSTALLED OR NOT RUNNING BECAUSE THEY CAN CAUSE BRICKS, Pdanet, easytether, droid explorer, kies, etc., etc., on down the line. I repeat if you have a program on your computer that syncs with your phone, it is NOT COOL TO HAVE THAT RUNNING! ****
Just trying to narrow down what the hell could cause the device not to power back up, also how long did you leave the device plugged before disconnecting or pulling the battery. Did oden stop responding or say anything other then rebooting ?

Or instead of paying shipping plus not having a phone for a week or so, you could file an insurance claim... Haha. Last I checked Asurion was still giving new phones due to lack of refurbs.

I had to run out quickly earlier to get a new sim for my Thunderbolt so I can have a phone to use in the meantime. The sim I had for it didn't work.
Some good suggestions. Thanks everyone. I'll have to ponder my options few as they are.

I had this happen on an HTC phone one-time. No joke, but to fix it, I think it ended up holding down power + volume down or up and then put the battery in. I tried a bunch of combinations like that until it booted. Same thing when taking the battery out. Does the red light show when the phone is plugged in?

I just meant that I've been out of the flashing scene for about a year until recently and this phone has a different method, plus the fact that it took me 2 days to get everything backed up, set back up how I like, etc. I've lost my nerve I guess. I used to be a serial flasher of roms back in the Eris days. New rom that nobody's tried yet? Sure thing. These days I'm even hesitant to flash something if it's tried and true and nobody is seeing any problems. Plus the fact that my hardware is messed up. (I dropped it in water twice by accident and the screen also broke in a separate incident)

Anyone having an issue with web page links in text messages FCing the messaging app?

can't mobile deposit with rooted phone?

I had no issues with my HTC Evo LTE being rooted and depositing checks with the Bank of America mobile app. My galaxy 5 has pretty much been rooted since they day I got it back in May and I haven't been able to get deposits to work. The bank's mobile team reached out to help me but once they learned the device was rooted they threw their hands up and said they couldn't troubleshoot the phone because being rooted and having developer options turned on interferes with the way the app works. Has anyone ever heard of this? The app works fine other than when I take a pic of the front and back of my checks and go to deposit it keeps saying to center check in all four corners...

Ahh, so that's why I wasn't able to deposit a check lol. Did you try turning off the developer options, then trying?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

No I didn't and I actually found out it has nothing to do at all with being rooted. I figured they were using that as a cop out anyways...
It boils down to their app not being calibrated correctly for the phone. If I hold the phone 2 feet away from the check then it'll work. They've updated the app about 3 times since this phone came out and I think 1 or 2 of those were supposed to be patched to fix the new phone issues. Evidently they still don't have it sorted yet.

Go into settings and toggle developer options off and reboot. After I did this, my check was deposited on the first try. When you are done you can enable developer options again.
