2 january 1970 01:00 am? - HTC Sensation

Hi! I'm using two batteries for my sensation.
But i have a problem I'm bothered with. Every time I switch battery the phone resets itself to 2 January 1970 @ 01:00 am.
My current rom is hypernonsense with bricked kernel.
Is there a way to fix the time reseting every time I switch battery?

lol yeah seriouly though
when you shut it down do you do it "gracefully" (meaning do you turn it off just before it dies and then do the switch?)
have you tried a complete wipe with and installed stock, and does it still show the same symptoms?
if it still does with the stock rom, it mean that you might have a faulty board

Yes, I always turn it off before switching. Will see how other roms can handle it tomorrow when I have time to test

That's so strange! 1970 really? Wow! I hope changing the Rom will fix the issue! Yeah, I could see how that would definitely bug! Good luck, hope it gets back to present day!

I recently took apart my dad's idiot Motorola Defy. The damn phone had a watch battery like a PC would for keeping your BIOS settings. I was a bit surprised, but maybe the Sensation has one and yours is dead for some reason.
Probably wrong, but I'm just speculatin.

Change the battery to the 1970 one.
Buy Microsoft stock. Alot of it.
Switch batteries back.
Buy France as your personal playground.

Go to Settings > Date & Time > Automatic.
That is your solution.

Tried swtiching battery on other rom (smartdroid berserk mode) Still same error, i guess it's something with the sensation then....

It happens to me too, i have 2 sims, so when i take the battery out and in inmediatly it keeps date but if i leave the battery out for something like 1 min. It restarts to 1970, it also happens on a nokia i have, running hypernonsense with bricked too.

Then there must be some kind of reset when battery is taken out....

I can't really help you solve your issue, but in case anyone is curious as to why it sets back to the seemingly random date of January 1970, you can read about Unix time (also known as Epoch time) here on Wikipedia:

So after todays update i returned my Thunderbolt

Its gone, todays radio made the phone even worse for me, always had a crap signal to begin with but it got almost unusable after the update, i was gonna get a charge but......the store said they have moved back the date to a TBA again, he also said they bionic has been cancelled, i was left with no option but to go back with the iphone, i almost went with a galaxy S, but ive had one of those upto getting my TB and didnt really wanna go back to something i had already had..
To sum it up, the TB is a great device that lacks the testing it required, it seems to have been rushed out with horrific battery life even with custom roms its still crap for heavy users, and poor signal..
Ill buy one again if they get there crap together and fix the obvious faults, but until Verizon releases a good dual core android im gonna have to stick with what i know.
Cool story, bro.
cool story bro, tell me again with subtitles.
I don't notice any change after the update
ThunderBolt isn't for everyone I guess. I love 4G and I can work with the small battery.

Yikess......not sure where you live, but I get fantastic 4 g everywhere in Chicago, have had 2-3 random reboots since I bought on day 1 (which could be less that the reboots on my Dinc), and get reasonable battery life, best phone I have yet to own.
Not to crap on your post , but I took my ip4 back because of bad service. My TB will hold service where the ip4 wouldn't. I will take service over battery anyday.

Interesting.... You took it back, after being rooted and applying the update (that's what your other post said) sounds like someone may have messed up...

			
				
I just had 4G turned on in my city (Sacramento) a few minutes ago.. I've had the phone for a while and it rocks!!!.. I am surprised you've had so many issues with your phone.

Yeah and at least you can change the battery when it dies.. You can't even do that with the iPhone, what a great "feature". Two batteries and a stand alone charger only cost $10 on eBay. Besides I get over a day of battery anyways. I think the real problem existed between the phone and the ground...
I've loved my TB since day 1 and have no problems with it other than a slow to find me GPS. I love this phone and would have to agree that the problems for many seems to be between the phone and the ground. Rooted with DasBAMF 1.6.3 FTW!

So What's the best thing from the update?

Anyone see any new functions from the new update, besides the new 3G Icon??
No reboots here. I still loose 3g often but it regains it back much quicker. Also easier to toggle LTE on and off.

I never had random reboots before, but atleast for me the GPS is locking on so fast I love it.

I had reboots all the time. None since the update.
Haven't seen anything worthwhile yet. I never had any reboot problems so this update did nothing but put more bloatware on my phone. I think its time to root.

Faster 4G in Atlanta
I'd just like to say that I miss my old boot screen. And the new 3G icon looks like someone stepped on it. Other than that and the my Verizon app I haven't even noticed the update. My reboots stopped a few days ago, I had 4 days 9 hours and 2 minutes of uptime when I installed the update.

S/W Upgrade!

Well maybe it is here?!!!
Woke up this am and my phone battery was dead. Connected it to the charger last night but didn't realize the charger was unplugged. So I connected it to my laptop via USB and went about the morning activities.
I just looked over and on the screen it says
S/W Upgrade
Please wait
While upgrading...
Been that way for 10 minutes. I'll keep you posted.
Seriously? WTF. Hmm, I wonder if it could look like anything in this guys post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166507
Notice he changed it to false alarm and request that it be deleted. OTA updates don't automagically start, you get informed and a choice how to download them.
yeah you may wanna take this down asap
Yeah, unless you get prompted to update while your phone is on, I doubt its legit.

That was the only thing curious to me was that I hit the power button to make sure it was charging and it was. I never turned it on though. Looked over again when I heard the USB connect sound from my laptop and saw the message. Still on the screen at this point.
Not sure.....
Such thread should be locked down ASAP because it's just another "cry wolf"!
Pull your battery or it will stay on this screen. You fat fingered some buttons is all that happened.

No offense OP, but we have been down this road many times already.
I called T-Mobile. No such Upgrade / Update at this time for LG G2x.
Pull battery, reset phone, wait for the real update to arrive.
Again. Can't belive it!!!

I'm a fan of calling the of T-Mobile since obviously people are wrong when they tell you there is no update. As if one of these threads doesn't actually pop up once a week...
Happened to me once to. I turned on the phone and got the software upgrade screen. Left in on all night, finally reset (it still had the screen), low and behold, no update.
Not sure why the screen came up.
so when you went to start this thread and typed s/w upgrade into the thread title box and you got the little search window that opens up and warns you not to post a new thread without checking those out first you did what exactly?
Mr clown murder this thread.!!!

[Q] T-Mobile SMS Issue

Good Evening Everyone. As I have a T-mobile HTC one S has anyone else had a issue with the sms notfications. The sound does not go off or nothing shows in the notifications bar. You just manually have to go into messages to see if you have a new one. This has been my second phone and it just seems to be going on.
I am sorry if this was already brought up as I have been looking in the threads for a while. And I am new to this.
Thanks in advance for the help.

nothing out of the ordinary as far as apps. I did "google search" on the issue and see it is a known issue for the ONE X. So i dont know if it releated to the HTC 1 family.
I think this phone is amazing and would just love for this issue to be fixed. As I am hoping a software update will come soon.
At first I thought I was nuts but I know the phone is doing it not one phone but two thats the weird thing !!!

Strangely, I have the opposite issue on leedroid. I use go SMS so I turn off the notifications on stock messaging. Every now and then, the message notification and preview will show up on the lock screen. Seems to be no pattern

Try SMS pop up. They have a notification setting in there that should take you to your original SMS program. Also more unique notification settings.

I'm having this issue too. Sometimes though, my phone will vibrate and there will be nothing on the notification bar. Most of the time I have to restart the phone and the SMS will show up. Other times it will randomly show up hours later which is really inconvenient. =^/

[Q] battery life - Do I have a lemon?

Ok, Ive had my one x for two weeks and its a fantastic phone with absolutely pathetic battery life. So far the battery life is always inferior to my old Atrix (first one).
On a few occasions its been so bad I don't even think its possible that this phone isnt broken. I'm still locked bootloader, no hacked apps, customizations, anything. Stock and a few apps like dropbox and zynga games.
Today was especially pathetic. "Voice calls" was exactly one phone call under 10 minutes long.

Is it this bad for everyone?
That's pretty bad. Looks like you didn't even have the screen on all that much, either.
I'm assuming you're on 1.85? Have you tried a reset?
For comparison, and others' feedback, here's a recent snap of my stats. I'm not too confident my battery is up to snuff either.

Thanks for the reference. Whats your battery life like under very light usage? I think i played scramble with friends twice, and had a 10 minute phone call. Maybe a quick web page or two. On 1.85
I have at&t HTC one x also my battery life is ok I read somewhere that one x phones with the serial number ht24.... And ht23.... May have battery and WiFi issues my phone is a ht24..... Serial number but mine seems to be fine so far I had it for only 3 weeks. But here's some screen shots of my power usages and one is where my brightness setting is at.

Where did you read that HT24s had issues? Mine is an HT24 and it has rock solid wifi and ridiculously good battery life.
@OP- Do a factory reset and and don't install anything and run it for a day or two and see what kind of battery life you get. The important thing to look at is screen on time. If you get from 3-6 hrs screen on time (depending on cell signal, wifi, other factors) than your phone is fine.
I read it on this forum about a week ago someone posted the email conversation they had with HTC but mine is ht24 and it works fine my girlfriend just bought one yesterday and hers is the 25 so I'll be able to see if there is a difference I have noticed one thing about my WiFi it will attempt to connect to secured WiFi signals that I dont have the password to it'll say obtaining ip the say signal lost and keep repeating it till I turn it off
