CM7 - Settings/Date & Time/ and u can either set time, or change the timezone. this worked for me.
I have had the same thing happening. I had to manualy set it.
Mine would jump 5 hours then i went to automatic time it went back then would jump again. Happen after I flashed kh1 modem.

Mine did this too. Odd. What I did was go to settings>date and time>unchecked automatic and rechecked automatic and that fixed it. Hopefully this helps.
I reflashed the previous modem also and it fixed the problem. Must be a glitch with the new modem.

Nope no problem here.
Yup, I had to manually set it this morning. I thought it might have had something to do with the flash-a-holic fit I had earlier this morning tho.
Those who are reporting problems should state their local time zone.
The reports seem to be mainly Central/Mountain time people based on posted locations, no Eastern time zone reports I've seen so far.

Like Eric, I have no problems here. I had a problem earlier but I flashed the KI3 modem and now it seems to be getting the time properly.
Atlanta and have had to set to manual.
Seems like it started after trying the leeked Gingerbread rom. Although I went back to stock and am running Infused 1.6 at the moment.
Every time I try to set it to automatic it jumps ahead 4 hours.
Some one post a link to the modem that came with s7 or the modem before the beta I flashed the beta modem too . I'm betting its the modem that's causing it

Is it my phone or software?
2 roms and 1week into either my auto rotate dont work. Only way I know to fix is new rom or reflash old.
Contunium / Fusion are the last two I have used. Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
So did you auto rotate work when you first installed the rom?
Yes. And will work for about a week or less with new flash. So far I've flashed about 15 roms and this just started on the last two. I may go back to stock and see if it helps but stock sucks.

I currently don't have it installed but I think sgstools has a option to test the vertical and horizontal calibration of the phone.
But what your saying that it works for about a week then just stops sounds like a issue with the rom's not the phone.
Thanks.. will try that... and yes seems like rom related. Even in games it wont work for steering and stuff.

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.

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.

I haven't had the issue for 2 days now so it seems to have been a good workaround for me. Perhaps others will benefit.
I'm running stock and my GPS is incredibly slow. Using GPS Fix can never get a fix within 15 minutes. Any ideas? Should I just return the phone? I bought it at a tmobile store over a month ago. Would they even accept returns this far out?
You only have 14days to return but I would go plead a case how your not satisfied with the product

That's when my problems started.
Hopefully the official GB update provides some fixed GPS drivers.
I noticed that it goes back and forth for me. Sometimes it locks right away, other times I have to close and reopen slash turn off and on GPS. Do remember though there are always areas that are hard for any GPS to fix a location on. I know some of them here in the twin cities.

That's what I thought...at first.
But I have 2 G2xs. One that has never been flashed, and one that was flashed to CM7 and back to stock.
Never been flashed picks up GPS everywhere, indoors, outdoors in under 5 seconds. It's perfect.
Flashed one hardly works. Sometimes never gets any GPS satellites. Other times it gets them but never locks, even with 9 or more satellites in view. Before flashing, it worked fine.
Hello all,
I started experiencing a strange problem a couple of days ago. When I set my clock to "automatic" time, my time jumps ahead 7 hours. Since then, I have found several people on IRC who are experiencing the same problem with this phone.
As of now, it is unclear whether the problem is caused by AT&T or Samsung, but I can tell you that the issue appears to be occurring regardless of what rom individuals are running.
So, the question; are you experiencing the clock issue?
CheesyNuts just made a thread about this, so there are other having this issue.
I being one of them, but i just set the time myself and its been ok.

While there may be another issue underlying, one of the more prominant reboot causes on the phone is wifi.
I believe I may have found the cause of the problem, and with that a temporary fix.
The problem had me at a loss because some people had it and others didn't, so I concluded it to be caused by either wifi channel or security.
Doing some scanning I found my own wifi to be running on channel 3. Opening the router interface I found the channel setting, like most routers, was set to auto. I changed this setting to 6 and no more reboots.
The fix
If you are running your own wireless router, open the interface and use a standard channel (1,6,11, 6 is recommended if you use wireless N with 40mhz channel width). I will not help you set up your router as there are plenty of tutorials out there.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Unfortunately for me this is not the case. I've had my router set to channel 11 for some time. It does not change. Also, I've had the problem occur when wifi on the phone was not enabled.
After reading a thread in the Dev section on this kernel about it possibly being signal-strength related, I figured I would do some testing with different modems. I first went to the KD1 modem and it seemed fine for almost a day, then a reboot. Followed by a reboot soon thereafter. I switched to KG4 and the problem got worse. I do believe, however, that when it occurred my signal strength to T-Mobile (not via wifi) was weak/nonexistent.
I'm still on the KG4 modem despite the amount of issues I had with it last (one time it rebooted twice within the matter of a minute).
I think Bryan may be onto something provided in a log regarding the WM8994 module/code.
I'm glad you're still trying to figure out the issue as my time is limited these days. I hope we can narrow this issue down for the folks having the problem.
Thanks for your efforts and time!
Yes. As I said it appears there are 2 issues. My phone had started to reboot almost every 5 minutes when connected to wifi. There does also seem to be another issue causing reboots, but for some this may help.

I misread the first sentence. Sorry about that. Weird that wifi is causing that issue. I'm tempted to set my router to auto & see what happens. I set a channel for it long ago because I have a repeater to get the signal to the other side of the house and they would hang if both were set to auto.

I don't get great battery life as it is. I did notice yesterday or the day before, though, that when it reboots itself, the battery usage shows a sharp drop. I also noticed it's not a "full" reboot, but rather seems like a quick boot.
I agree with the half reboots and it also seems to me that they happen when the signal is low. I get a couple a day and usually while using data or wifi while indoors or while coverage is low. I don't know if these details help track it down or not but I wanted to leave my experiences.

Just an FYI. I set my router to n only channel 6 a few days ago. No reboots til this morning. Normally it's "hmmm there it goes again." This morning however I thought I had broken my ankle and was waiting for a call back on what to do. BAM, my blue tooth disconnected, I looked at the phone and saw the beats audio startup. Really bad timing for a reboot. Wifi wasn't on. Glad I didn't miss the call back. That would have really sucked.
Ive pretty.much given up on finding it. Im waiting for my sdcard to come in the mail to test that. If that doesnt fix it ill be redeeming my phone warranty this weekend.

Don't give up just yet.
I'm using my Hebrew Valhalla ROM and using Bryan's kernel I had no reboots for more than a month. It's basically Valhalla Final with Adrenaline Shot 14.1 with system mount on etc init.d scripts. I'm also on sidekick kd1 modem. You can try this ROM, if you don't change locality to Hebrew it's as English as any other ROM.

You may have something there. I really don't understand how all the various work together, but seemingly there's something between the kernel and the modem. Since the reboots can be random though, it's hard for me to even guess. I flashed SCOM a little bit ago which uses the KD1 Modem with KJ6-v0.1.1-rc2. So we'll see.
Idk. It seams heat related. Also Bryan said that he either tracked it to userspace errors or he thinks its caused by userspace errors.

for those of you having the random reboot, did you do the gremlin removal steps + the factory wipe without the sd card in the phone? i would highly recommend this. after you have successfully done the gremlin remover, remove and reformat the sd card on the computer. while this is formatting, go back into cwm and wipe data/cache/dalvik without the sd card in the phone. once this is done, let the phone sit for 15 min or and and shut down. put the sd card in and reboot. if you still have random reboots, try the kh2 kernel.
I was going through the same reboot issues with kernels newer than 2D for a while. Then a few weeks ago I flashed FB's version and everthing ran great for a week. I was running VB with no additional tweaks of any kind. The week of no random reboots got me feeling good enough to start adding some of the typical changes I make to my phone... the first being changing some SD apps over to System apps ( Netflix, Skype, TB, Plume, Ninesky, ES File Ex, Camera Zoom FX & a few others)...BAM! Random reboots 4 to 5 times a day. Converted apps back after 3 days but the reboots persisted. Reflashed VB from scratch, keeping kernel that is packed in Raver's VB ROM, left apps alone and so far no reboots in 4 days. The only logs I found were similar to those posted on another thread where Bryan then said he didn't need anymore, he just needed time to de-bug.
Has anyone tried using the kj2 modem? kd1from SCOM was giving me random reboots left and right and after flashing kj2 last night my phone has been up for a little over 17 hrs without any issues. I know its not alot of time but its better than random reboots every hour or so. Signal strength also went up a bit.

I usually do the whole gremlin thing before every flash regardless. Actually formatting my sd on the puter as we speak. Then I'll do gremlin again, then reformat, etc. The things you mentioned at the end though I've never seen before, so I'll add those into the mix. With the SCOM flash this morning, the phone rebooted within 3 hours. I'm glad to see Bryan's back and that he's on top of it.
I had this problem and added the system mount on init.d scripts and the modem and don't have it. Never used the gremlin remover. So if the gremlin remover won't work for you as well, try what I say.

I'm on icbinb, which I've been on for well over a month and have only had one reboot (after leaving my phone on for more than 5 straight days). Only thing I've changed is tried the sidekick modems, but they didn't increase my service, so I flashed back to kj6.
