I've got a stock (rooted) Nexus S 4G and for the last week, the clock will randomly fall behind an hour. Sometimes rebooting the device resets it back to the correct time, sometimes it doesn't.
It wasn't that big of an issue until recently where it would do it, I would fix it before going to bed, then it would revert back to the wrong time while I was asleep, causing my alarm to go off an hour later than it was supposed to.
Suggestions? I can provide any more information that is needed, just ask.
Uncheck use network for date and time. Manually set the time.

Thanks, I've been doing this, however is there a way to fix it so that it uses network time and doesn't do this, or am I just stuck using manual for the time being?
Do you live anywhere near a different time zone. You may be jumping from your time to a tower on a different time zone. Also may want to check with your carrier it might be a problem on their network. Do you happen to have an airave that has been known to cause problems at times.

Hey guys this is just a quick opinion question. Which modem for the Infuse do you guys like best? I'm having trouble picking the right one, so maybe you guys could help.
If you search the modem forum you'll see that the "best" modem is different for everyone, depending on your phone, your area, etc. Best thing to do is flash em, try em for a few days and see which one works for u. I actually have 6 different modems saved to my phone and flash a different one if I'm not getting great reception with the current one. Hope that helps!
KI3 I feel is best on my phone
The right Modem
thanks guys I have been having the same issue. I have downloaded all of them now on my phone so I think I will just continue to try different ones until one is the best. Question??? Wouldn't the latest version be the best? also, does installing and uninstalling "flashing" these phones cause damage to the drive?
thanks

Not necessarily. I got the 4 hours clock moving ahead bug in all KH and KJ2 onwards. Setting time manually is an option, but I prefer auto update of time. KI3 gave me proper balance between connectivity, speeds and battery usage.
Flashed the doctorz rom., I believe its ucki3, pulled 10.5 down... best yet out of all other modems (on different roms)

I would also like to know, does it affect wifi?
I am having 2 separate wifi problems on CM7 UCKJ4
1. At school, it works sometimes (maybe less than half the time), the rest of the time the wifi icon in the status bar is greyed out and doesnt work,
2. At home, it will not connect to wifi at all. When I go to wifi settings, it says "scanning.... connecting... disconnected" and repeats.
I dont about flashing my.modem roms.anymore. The last one i did.screwed up the time and i couldnt send out text messages. So far i really dont see much of a difference in connection speeds. I still think the newest modem flash for your os should be the best but i am still a noob at android system.

+1 KI3 has given me decent speeds and been reliable.
KJ2 gave me the best data speeds but MMS has the character sending limit and constantly switched between 3G and H+
I'm running Infused v2.2.3 and have been on KJ4 for several days now. I don't know if it's related but my battery life has greatly improved. Took auto time update off and don't mind the 160 character text issue if I've gained battery life.

I am also having problems with the wifi. The only way I get a good reception to it is if I have phone right next to the router. There has been many forums on here about the wifi...its def a hardware issue with the phone. At this time I dont think anyone has found a fix for it yet. The talk about updating your router is not true.
Hi,
My One S seems to occasionally have a few connectivity issues with 3G, I am not sure they are related to the signal issues already discussed in other threads in this forum. I have an international handset, MAO black version (has two tiny chips too, but not worth complaining about), running stock firmware, haven't done the dev unlock yet.
1) Sometimes the phone shows 'No Service', but I still have a working data connection and can make calls. Sending/receiving SMS appears not to work for some reason though. Can work around by switching into and out of airplane mode. Until I do that any SMS I compose under these conditions just pends, after the workaround they do get sent after a few minutes.
2) Sometimes something seems to go wrong with the 3G data connection, all the internet apps suddenly say they have no connection, alogcat says that DNS lookup is repeatedly failing even though I have a strong signal and 3G/HSPA connection (also tried connecting to IP addresses directly, doesn't work either). Tried getting online via Wi-Fi and it works, but all the Internet connectivity fails if I turn Wi-Fi off. If I reboot the phone it is able to get online again.
I brought this problem up in a live chat with HTC customer support and they have advised me to arrange for them to collect the phone for repair, the shop from whom I bought the phone advised the same. Just thought I would share it here and find out if it is common, or it is likely, as HTC think, there's something wrong with my phone's antennae. (My thought is that both could also be software problems)
Anyone else experience problems like this?
I get the no service thing all the time, I pull it out of my pocket and press the power button, it says no service. I am going to call t-mobile in the next few days, I am trying to collect more data. It does it on my same spot on the couch where I used to get good coverage on my old phone. It does it on the same desk at work that I used to get good reception at. It kinda sucks.

Yup, I get that and trying to get more data before sending it back to HTC. I'm not really certain but it's as if there is something wrong antennae? Seems to be quite a few with similar mobile network issues though.
I still have my old Motorola and with sim out of One S in the reception is good where the One S struggles to get a signal - if at all
I have the same issue as Kenyw:
No connection for a while although within covered area.
Strong connection bars but no internet
Usually I switch to airplane mode and back then it works...until the next time!
Very frustrating! I don't think changing the phone would solve the problem!
I have the same exact issue as the OP. Another example would be the streaming of music using Pandora and Slacker. I can listen to 1 song and skip 2 or 3 songs at best before I start having issues where it just keeps loading and I am in 4G range and 3G which shouldn't be a problem still.
Same issue here.

I did exchange my One S for another and it is just the same
It's a bit of a queer issue. I know where I live I have a good Three UK signal as per experience with the Motorola phone. I can be anywhere between 2 bars (approx 104dBm) and no signal in the house and around the yard. Yet I can walk 20 yards towards mast approx 1 mile away and as soon as I get LOS (no buildings, trees) on the mast I get full signal???
I buy my One-S a week ago in Germany and facing the same issue in Israel with Orange 3.5G network. I really don't know what to do now.

Alon,
As mentioned in many different threads opened here in XDA, the issue is related to the phone and its current software version and not to the operator/SIM/area in the world.
Stay tuned and hopefully shortly HTC will provide OTA update or root your device and install one of the custom ROMs based on the new RUU 1.70 which might be solving this issue.
Oren
Thanks,
I will keep waching the threads around waiting for solution.

Been contemplating for a while whether to post this as it will come off as rather trollish. Had my Infuse for over a year now. When I first got it I noticed there were some "issues". I remained patient hoping or thinking maybe when GB was released it would improve. It did not. Later I needed to root this phone and came here, found a ROM that had all the AT&T junk stripped out. Phone worked better, but still had these issues.
I got to the point that I knew I would never again purchase either a Samsung phone or Android. Did not know what the culprit was. Just recently I had the chance to really take a look at an HTC EVO, and I realized that Samsung is the problem, not Android.
Number one issue is that this phone is sluggish, and sometimes unresponsive. I will touch whatever button and get that vibrating acknowledgement, but nothing happens. I will be in the app menu and wish to exist and the home button just does not respond.
Yesterday I missed a call because the bloody phone just did not respond, even though I touched the answer button. Other times I just can not make a call. I dial number, and the phone just sits there doing nothing. Eventually I just pull out the battery and restart the phone to make a simple bloody call. I had a HTC WinMo phone for years and never once experienced this. No matter how farked the OS could get with some app or whatever, the phone function always worked.
I do not run a lot of apps, and recently have experienced these issues with almost literally no apps installed. I will then add something like GO taskmanger just to confirm that the unresponsive behavior is not due to some app taking up memory/CPU etc..
Sorry for the long post, but I am at my wits end with this bloody phone. The fact that I miss calls when the **** phone is right in my hand is unacceptable. So before placing this phone in a box filled with C4 and shooting this to the moon, hoping that maybe a solution is out there.
p.s. I have 2 Infuse in use, both have the same issue.
What firmware are you running?
Is it the same firmware on both phones?
What is the launcher?
Have you tried a different modem?
Are you using a battery saver like juice defender?
Are you using an ad blocker?
Are you using a specific kernel? Oc? Uv?

You know, for the rather lengthy post, you really have not explained any detail about your issue.. You have a generic 'I have an issue, the Infuse sucks' post and its not going to help anyone resolve your issue. I find it EXTREMELY hard to believe that you have 2 infuses having the SAME EXACT ISSUE. Yes, there will be times when you get a defective phone or it isnt working up to your standards, but to have 2 defective phones with the same defect? You need to play the lottery. Also, i suggest you send the phones back. It sounds like youve already made your mind up and have pretty much bashed the samsung infuse in that entire post. The same samsung infuse that myself, and plenty of other people live with day to day and have absolutely 0 complaints.
I will give you $20.00 a piece for them!!!!

Simple . Hack it and put cm7 on it if you really need speed. Maybe its your screen protecter. Wipe the screen off. Cm9 can be sluggish, for speed go to miui on gingerbread or cm7
Id be willing to buy one of the infuses
Trust me...sounds like you got two defective units...which like Scott, I find hard to believe...but hey its possible-idk when you got hem.but if it hasn't been a year then put them back to stock with gtgs unbrick and file a warranty claim with Samsung...the infuse is a great phone and I never had the problem you described...I do have a question though...did you get them both at the same time? Cause I don't see why you would get a second if your first was having problems
Anyways...if you wanna sell one hmu...I may buy one depending on the price and if I can get the money (I think I already may have one lined up for $170 just need to get the money)

Again this has been a recurring problem since purchase, and during this time I have had stock Froyo, rooted Froyo ROM, GB update, and for one now a the GB rooted ROM.
When the slow to unresponsiveness occurs there does not appear to be any specific cause. Prior to updating to the rooted GB I had used GO Taskmanager, and long before that some other app I long since forgot the name of. Point was that they had shown that neither CPU was excessive, or memory was used up. Both phones have data services disabled and are strictly Wifi only. There are no tasks or extra programs run in the background (though did install Connectbot today). I no longer use any Live wallpaper. After updating to the rooted GB I left the phone in that state (no software installed) for a week or so, and the problem still occured.
This occurs when calling or answering calls, but as previously posted occurs sometimes just opening the Applications menu as an example. So it is not a specific task or program that is slow or unresponsive. Earlier this evening I got a call, slide the bar across to answer and the screen just hung there for a few moments. This time it was at least not long enough that I missed the call. When the call was done I looked and there simply was nothing running on the phone. No apps, no web browser or mail, in fact I was not even connected to the wifi (I have data 3G/4G service disabled on the phone).
are you completely wiping before every flash youve done? have you tried a complete wipe and start from fresh?

Task manager is NOT the best app to tell you what is running in the background.
Maps and other location apps may not be listed but will consume resourse that can be the cause of your lag.
The fact that stopping wallpaper or live wall paper off alleviate the condition may suggest that the phone is running at max capacity. Steps to reduce the load improves it. Live wp, facebook, maps, stock email and other device manager from stock att was one of the first @#$% I took out on any rom I run.
Having a large amount of apps installed can also cause this lag. The OS may only be able to handle so many.
Have a poor signal at the time of the call may also be an issue, especially if both of your phones have this issue occasionally but not consistently.
Lock screen can also be a factor. Some sleep setting may also cause the phone to wake up poorly. I get around this by turning off my lock screen. On the call settings, you can also change the answering options so that it will override others and make it easy to answer.
On any firmware - stock or modded, after you have the phone running for an extended period of time without a reboot, you may start to see some lags. This may be across all devices. You may need to reboot it occasionally or boot into recovery and wipe the cache.
These issues may or not go away once you have a device with more power or resources..ex: dual or quad core, 1gb or 2gb ram etc..my guess is when a device has more power, programmers will come up with more resourse intensive apps that may hinder the phone as well.
Lastly, pay attention to your battery meter. As the power dips below 30%, there are steps taken by the OS to conserve the battery. This may give you lags as well..possibly one of the reason why it seems random also.
If you wanted to test out the lag issue due to background apps, go to settings/account and sync. turn off background data. You will retain the (radio) phone and text but there will be no email/facebook, weather, widgets/market/amazon etc updates unless you manually update them. If this runs smoothly but lags when you turn it back on, you can start the process of narrowing down your culprit.

Hi All...
Im on a Sony Z3 and I updated to 5.1.1 on Friday and there is a really annoying new little 'feature' included.
Whenever the phone looses signal it sends a notification sound/vibrate. no toasts or popups, just the notification sounds.
I am on Wind Mobile in Southern Ontario and my reception is not very good when i am at work and it goes off constantly. This has not been a issue before, as it never did anything when i lost signal.
Its really annoying when i think im getting messages or other notifications and there is nothing there, just lost signal.
Is there some way of disabling the network connection notification sounder?
Best Regards, CHez0or

I also have this issue since 5.1.1... I'm on AT&T in rural Colorado, and I get no fewer than 6 signal notifications just driving the last two miles to my house. Makes listening to music really irritating. Also learned that the stock clock application now crashes when using the countdown or stop watch. Looking to roll back to 5.0.2, which was actually really stable. Based on the variety of new issues, it looks like Sony laid a real egg with 5.1.1.
THANKS OBAMA.
Does anybody know of an APP that can control network connection sounds?
Its really getting annoying when it goes off without any kind of notification!!

I chatted for about 30 minutes with a tech on the Sony support site who was able to confirm that:
The signal loss notifications cannot be independently disabled.
There is no patch in the works to resolve the issue.
Rooting your phone to resolve this, or any other issue will void your warranty.
He couldn't say why someone would want to keep the warranty when Sony broke the phone with an OTA update and won't fix the problem... lol.
SO ****ing stupid... why Sony, why?!
And just like that, they stopped. Not sure if Sony or AT&T is to blame/thank, but I'm glad that's over with.

Was there some sort of update? im not sure if mine is still going... will report back shortly!!
EDIT:
It does seem to be solved!!
im not sure how... the only thing i remember getting updated was a "What's New" app update
And today it's back.
Nice...
So, AT&T were wrenching on the towers in my area over the weekend, and suffice it to say, this is still an issue. I was actually on stage trying to play a gig all afternoon on Saturday and my phone was going off constantly.
Not sure what I want to do about this. I really liked the phone before the 5.1 update, and couldn't believe how long I'd owned it without rooting it. But I guess that's where I'm headed. Anyone have a rom for the Z3 that they really like?
So you plan to fix bad cell reception by rooting your phone?

Wow... that is a pretty umm.... interesting... conclusion at which to arrive.
What I want to do is disable the notification sound that is played every time the signal drops, which, thanks to whoever approved the 5.1 update for the Xperia Z3, can only be accomplished by rooting the phone.
New system update available this morning. Currently installing it. Haven't had a chance to root the phone yet, so really hoping this fixes the issue.
So, this update did not fix the problem. I installed an app called No Signal Alert that will supposedly either enable or disable signal alerts. The settings did allow me to disable alerts for signal changes, but I haven't had a chance to see if it's had any effect on the setting that the update put in place. We'll see...
The app seems to be working. I watched the phone lose signal last night while driving home and there was no notification. Hopefully, that's the end of that.
App does not work for me... still getting sounds going off with all of the option boxes unchecked. FML!
Sorry to hear that... I will report back if I get any more notifications. You might try one of the other similar apps to see if you have any success. Good luck.
So, sure enough, the notifications started up again this morning. I haven't had the time to screw around with the phone, but I guess I'll have to make time... Otherwise, I'm going to skip this ****ing thing across a lake.
