[Q] Note 10.1 Time Sync? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I'm trying to figure out how to synchronize the time on the Note 10.1. The clock is off by two minutes, and there's no obvious option to update/sync the time.
Vanilla android had the Automatic date and time option available, but it's missing in Touchwiz.
Help??

Hi,
I'm using ClockSync from PlayStore.
You need root to actualy be able to sync system time on Android.
Cheers

Yep, clocksync is he way to go, if you don't want to root, clocksync has a rootless mode but it is plus or minus 30 secs...

Thanks for the replies everyone. I'm un-rooted... and possibly not rooting for a while.

I'm on the Canadian N8010, on 4.0.4. That automatic time and date is not present.

What do you see for time settings? Is it not present, or just grayed out?

As the Canadian JB OTA has started rolling out you might see it but I believe that the menu from above is for the N8000 3G model. It gets the time updated from the carrier network though I use it on another phone I have that has no sim too.
Again though it has the capacity to put a sim in it.

True, but I swear IIRC the WiFi-only N8013 I'd first tried out to evaluate the Note 10.1 with also had an "Update Time Over Network" option (as it's possible to set the time via "NTP", which runs over any network connection type).

I Just stumbled on this thread whilst researching this same issue.
It does appear that the stock N8010 (wifi) 4.1.2 lacks the automatic date/time option.
This is a real pain, as my Note 10.1 looses about 1/2s a day and this option is available in stock android for wifi tabs.

I have 10.1 Wifi and 10.1 3g here and Samsung did not put this feature in 10.1 Wifi. strange and stupid.

It's worse than that, they must have actually removed it, as it's present in stock android for wifi only tabs.
And as I found out this morning, it also means it doesn't adjust for daylight savings automatically.

It will adjust to Daylight Saving if you change the timezone to be London, Dublin (assuming you are in the UK) rather than GMT (which mine had seemed to default to).

Incorrect time on text messages

Has anyone had an issue with their text messages showing the wrong time on the messages tab in TF3D? It shows up properly in the messages inbox, just not in the TF3D tab.
Same....
I have that problem also and I'm not using any touchflo. The time on the SMS that received appeared to be a few minutes ahead. Its like I can see the future
Yea, I get this exact problem. My touchflo time is 5 hours behind the time I received the text messages.. anyone else know how to solve this problem?

That's exactly my problem. It's as if TF3D goes off of GMT for some reason (only an assumption since I'm on EST).
So happy to see I am not the only one in limbo!!!
All my incoming messages are 5 hours behind. I am using an unlocked AT&T Fuze with my Rogers sim card (if that helps!)
Any ideas?

Hm, other than Denil Wong (maybe), it seems like all of us so far who have this problem are Rogers contractors.. Do you think it's possible that this problem is related to Rogers? Though I don't see why swapping my simcard from my old rogers phone to a touchpro will suddenly change the TF3D SMS timestamp.
I just read at another forum, that sometimes unlocked phones will do this....we may have to learn to live with it
Gotta LOVE Rogers for their quirks!
Same
I'm living in Martinique, a little french island in Caraibes, and i have the same problem!
It woul be great to have a solution...

yes this is a rogers problem, any phone that has a time zone manager will do that to you, and it will be even hours depending on your distance from GMT.

Same thing with me. I am using L02 and the issue started about 2 days ago. I am using the Weather Widget (free) as an alternative. Looks like the issue is directly with the huawei weather app.
I have checked if the gps works fine but it gives the right location.
I have force closed the weather app and cleared the cache
The system clock gives the right time only the weather app shows the incorrect time. I was thinking to do a full wipe or go back to emui 2.3
I have the same issue with 5.2.1 ROM. Its only appears when I set the location. Without location set the clock is correct.
Fix
I have managed to fix it. You would need root. Then follow the instruction from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56016096&postcount=1902
Now the weather widget shows the correct time.
If it works don't forget to press Thanks!

Look I tried to help. It is your choice whether you take it or not.
Changing the local prop can cause OTA issues. The device will still download the update but wont install it. I think once the update is available it is fairly easy to change the location and the language back. If you think this is a "messing around" then you should buy an international version next time and wont have any issue .

Hi!
Same Problem on my Honor 6 plus last 3 days.
Probably it´s a bug on weather.com.cn server.
I didn´t change anything and now it works like before.
Time is right without doing something in system...
Greeting
Sunny
Hi,
My honor 6+ is an international version. I've noticed at many occasions that the current weather did not seem right according to what could be felt. So I started comparing current weather on two of my devices; Honor 6+ and Xperia Z. It's quite surprising because the default source on both the devices is accuweather.com and Honor 6+ reports thr current temperature to be 6'C and Xperia says its 1'C with London as the current location.
Can anyone think of anything that could be causing this? Although I bought the international version still sometimes it does show my location as Shenzen brrrrrrrrrrr. Its wierd.

Chrome Tab Layout Issue

Hello there! I recently acquired a 3rd generation Moto G. However I've run into a few issues. My tab switcher appears to be stuck in "accessibility" mode; a weird tab switcher that uses the old holo UI. Here is a picture of the problem:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I checked chrome://flags and the accessibility tab switcher setting is not even on. Toggling on/off doesn't seem to change anything.
I also have no animations for opening the drop down menu, or opening the tab switcher. Pressing any of the UI buttons simply instantly opens the menu, as if I had battery saver on (which I don't). I've tried the dev and beta versions of chrome, and they also exhibit the same problems. Clearing cache, reverting to the factory version of chrome, etc... all don't seem to fix the issue.
I am running Android 5.1.1, with chrome 44.0.2403.133.The phone is the 1gb RAM/8gb storage version. I did some other research and found someone who had the same problem a few years ago, but on a Samsung phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2490353
Please help!
I'm really surprised there are no replies to this thread. We can't be the only two people with "Merge tabs and apps" turned off.
I'd like to know if this issue is present just on the 1GB models or all 2015 models?
Running an XT1540 here with the latest 5.1.1 firmware from Bell.

Thank you so much for posting - I was beginning to think that I was the only one in the world with a bugged phone!
I actually purchased the phone at Best Buy in the states, but I am using it in Canada. Do you think that has anything to do with the issue?

I highly doubt it has anything to do with *where* you operate the phone.
It's likely a firmware or Chrome specific setting for 1GB devices running Lollipop.
It's good to know you purchased yours in the US and have this issue. I can rule out it being specific to Bell issued firmware.

Yes, that's what I thought as well. The accessibility tab switcher was originally meant for low memory devices, so I'm assuming something got triggered in chrome and flagged our Moto Gs as low ram offenders.
Kinda funny, given how chrome runs just fine on more budget orientated devices like the Moto E, but gives up on the newest Moto G!
i have noticed the same problem the 1st day i have used chrome.. i just installed firefox .. as i dont use chrome which lacks in addons
I went ahead and opened a ticket with Chromium: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=525745
It would be nice to verify if 2GB users are also affected.
The issue should likely be raised with Motorola/Lenovo as there's another bug ticket that may be related:

I can confirm that my 2GB Moto G3 16GB is NOT affected.
hope your issue gets solved.:good:
I remember someone said something about Moto G 1GB model having a low ram parameter enabled in build.prop. Chrome may be using this to conserve memory. I have 2gb and don't have this issue.
v8s10 said:
In the build.prop, ro.config.low_ram=true If set to false chrome tab layout is normal, tried it on my 8gb/1gb ram model. Do so at you're own risk, i have no idea if editing this will cause any other problems, working fine for me so far...ymmv.

Finally I found this (on F-Droid), thanks!
Do you know if it works on Pie?
(I always depended on Xposed + Airplane Mode Helper + Timeriffic.
But I want to use Pie, which doesn't have Xposed.
Forgive me, I can of course try myself, but that takes hours if unsuccessful.)
Minor feature requests (idk if you still care/maintain, but you asked, so there):
- Be able to set times while toggle is set on Disabled
- When changing time, preset time chooser to current setting, instead of always 23h/8h

Thanks for testing!
Actually, your comment has motivated me to rework on this App. I switched from unlocked Xperia to locked Galaxy S7. It was very complicated but I successfully managed to be root again. I will rework on the UI, and make it close to Google Calendar (week view).
I've found an open source library which does that, so it will be easy to set offline periods.
My pleasure, thanks for listening!
Yes, it works fine on Galaxy S4 Mini LTE + AospExtended 4.6 (Nougat).
As you are still interested in feedback:
Personally I really don't care about this, but it doesn't trigger exactly on time, maybe only during Doze mode "maintenance windows" every 9 minutes. I already disabled Battery optimization for it.
Maybe most people (like me) already use other schedule/profile apps that have plenty features, so they don't search for alternatives.
But afaik, they all need Xposed + Airplane Mode Helper.
So maybe your app gets more popular, as long as your app does work on Pie, and Xposed does not.
Thanks for this app! I just discovered it recently and so far it does exactly what it is supposed to do: Automatically send the phone to airplane mode during the night and wake it up in the morning.
If you could as you mentioned add some form of a calendar view to the app then one could use the app much more individually (e.g. use different times on the weekend). That would be a great improvement!
Moreover, I would like to also add another feature request:
Would it be possible to enable/disable airplane mode only partially. For instance only switch off mobile connections while leaving Wifi turned on or the other way around?
Please keep up the good work :good:
Thanks for this app!Yes, it works fine on LG G5 .
It turns airplane mode on, but turning off isn't working. Android 10, Redmi Note 4, crdroid 6.11.
Update: on the 5th try it turned off. Really strange.
At least most of the time it works perfect on Android 9 (S4 Mini i9195, lineage-16.0-20200515).
I let it switch automatically, and rarely change settings or otherwise interfere.
I vaguely remember some failure, I might have rebooted or cleared cache in the past to solve it.
But that is so rare, that I can't remember exactly.

Question Google Maps Dark Mode theme option issue on Samsung s22 Ultra.

I have done everything I could including taking the steps to fix the fact that I never get the Theme option on Google maps on my device. Cleared cache, data, uninstalled updates, rebooted, updated to the latest versions everytime and still no Theme option. Is this just my bad luck or is this a thing going on for the S22 Ultra series?
It is not an S22 Ultra issue. I am having no problems toggling between dark and light modes. Mine is set to "same as device."
Check your "Navigation settings." About halfway(ish) down under, "Map display" you can change, "Color scheme." You should have a choice of, "Automatic, Day, Night." Automatic will change the theme according to what it senses while in navigation mode. To include switching to dark mode while in a tunnel.

Hi, so, in Google Maps, clicking in your user, then under "settings", you don't have the option to change the Theme? No option in that menu called "theme"?

Ok. A few more questions:
What version of Maps are you running?
What version of Google Play services are you running?
What S22 Ultra model do you have (i.e. SM-908U, SM-908U1, SM-908B, etc.)?
If not the U or U1 model, which country are you in or using it in?
The first two questions matter. I'm not sure how much the second two matter (if at all).

Update your Google Play services. The latest is 23.21.57
It may take a couple reboots.
Did both today and still same issue.

Hmmm... Since you are on an S22 Ultra (U model), I'm assuming you are not rooted; which shouldn't make a difference. I am also assuming you are on the latest OS/Firmware that your carrier pushed (I'm on Verizon so it would be S908USQS2CWE1). I don't know what release version AT&T and T-Mobile are on.
Did you do any debloating? If so, it is possible that you accidentally de-bloated something that Maps needs. That is a wild ass guess; I may be reaching.
I don't mean to sound sarcastic. You managed to win the game of "Stump the Chump." Because I am stumped.
It's been like this since I got the device fresh out the box a year ago. Update after update of all things still no results so you and I both are stumped.
Just out of curiosity what is your Google Maps version saying when you look on the Play Store or when you go into the apps info?
This is what I'm showing:
