Clock problem

Hi!
I have htc touch pro (AT&T version) with the latest stock rom.
For months already I am having problems with my clock. Altho its set to +2 Sofia time, it keeps on changing either to +1 time zone either it keeps the time zone but it changes 1 hour ahead or back. Doesn't sound that horrible, i know, but it's practicly unusable as an alarm clock and when i had forgotten my wristwatch home, i never know if i can trust my phone
Please tell me any ideas u might have for this.
Thanks in advance

could it be a regional settings or daylight saving issue?

They are set correctly but it just changes time zones as it wants

Hey,this looks strange,but did you use Weather Master for TouchFlo? I had similar problem and I found a fix,that I have done manually with some kind of database editor(or what was it). The problem was,that in some manila file there was bad timezone hardwritten,so I just rewrited it to +1 in my case and after that it was correct.

no I haven't, and I didn't use manila either. It's weird, since i installed Throttle Lock looks like i don't have the problem anymore, at least for a week now. Just yesterday it was showing correct time but in throttle lock was showing one hour ahead. so i looked at the clock and it was actually time zone +1 (incorrect) but with time of +2, so it was showing correct on the today screen. i changed it to +2 with the time it should be and it was showing correct on the both screens. It's really weird.

i had this exact prob. i used advance config and disabled the daylight savings c**p. here in oz out dls was extended for an extra week...what a pain. just set it manually. i had the same prob with my original touch.

hmm that's a good idea, thanks, i haven't thought about it. but it's already set there. anyway, it's still working without probs for a week already so i am optimistic about it i really have some feeling the throttle lock fixed it somehow, it's weird but it looks so

Weather Widget doesn't auto-refresh

The stock weather widget never auto-refreshes even though I have that option checked.
Figure there's nothing I can do about it but use another widget, just wanted to note it here so others know they are not alone with this issue.

what checkbox? touch the widget to bring up the app. then do menu>settings. now choose auto refresh. mine is set to one hour and is working fine.

OK, so it's a radio button instead of a checkbox
I have it set to auto-refresh every hour and it doesn't work for me.
Good to know it works for someone though..

do you have auto sync and background data turned on?

Yes, it's on.

So I noticed today it is refreshing against the current location however the location is not changing as I move around. Is that what you are saying?

My stock (accuweather) app is also auto-refreshing. I've never had a problem with it.
But my stock news (ap mobile) only just tonight started to auto-refresh. Right after I changed it from 5-second auto-scroll to 10-second auto-scroll. And while now it auto-refreshes, it no longer auto-scrolls.
Both apps have always been set to auto refresh.

I have the same issue on my original GSII. I've removed a lot of stock apps (safe ones, of course). But perhaps one contributes to/interacts with the refresh in some way? Any ideas?

Always on display not working!

I've waisted too much time trying to figure out why the [email protected]*k my AOD display stopped working. It was working fine for a week but all the sudden it stopped. I've tried everything I can think of and now I'm hoping someone here knows a fix or has suggestions? I don't have any screen control apps installed, no Bixby remap, AOD is set to on etc. Ideas?

I actually pulled an update that I was putting off but I haven't tried wiping and stating fresh yet. I guess that's my last resort

Start fresh is always the best option for things like that. AOD isn't hardware related it's software. Something broke somewhere or somehow

I am in the same boat..!
AOD just stop working. (Stock Rom, no root etc)
I basically tried everything.
Clearing AOD, data, cache.
No luck.
I even resetted device settings.
No luck.
I suspect something/app "broke" AOD.
I can set AOD etc, but it just
not working.!
I also notice that device /display /screen saver
is not working.( if you set /enable it)
Factory reset is my very last option.
If i cannot pinpoint culprit app or maybe an update
that "broke" AOD,
i guess I'll be wasting my
time to Factory reset.. just for AOD to "break " again?
once i re install my +- 200 apps. etc.
Any suggestions?

See if the proximity sensor is incorrectly detecting something.
AOD will not turn on if the proximity sensor is engaged, and even if it turns on it will turn itself off if the proximity sensor is triggered for a few seconds.
Use any app on the Playstore.

Thanks for the suggestion.!
However device proximity sensor is
working fine.!!
I have Gravity Screen app and stock Smart wake
working 100%... uses proximity sensor.
Also no apps of mine is disabled, so it couldn't be
a knock on effect. etc.
Luckily i use AOD occasionally, but since its not
working now, it's irritating me big time.!!

That is very odd.
I'll try to replicate and report back if anything comes up.

Mine has went out on me twice. I've had to do a hard reset twice. Really really irritating!

Has there been any luck with a solution? I'm also having same issue.

I went in my notification panels and Always on Display is somehow turned off. I re-enabled it and it was fine

Anyone had any luck with this? Mine just took a one way ticket to the moon

I'm having the same issue on my S7 Edge. Tried pretty much everything, even installing several different firmwares (7.0 official non rooted) and no signal of AoD or Nightwatch. Altough, if I use a 3rd AoD app it works flawlessly.
All sensors are ok, phone is running smooth all the time....
I've spoke to Samsung technical support in Live Chat and they say that this is a software issue that is about to be solved by Samsung in the next SW update. But honestly, even trying different firmwares, factory resetting the phone, AoD working in 3rd party apps, and still no signal of default AoD makes me wonder if this might be an hardware issue... Just don't know what because as far as I know AoD is SW only (right?).
I have a couple of friends with updated S7 and S7 Edges and all of them have the AoD running smooth.
If anyone finds a solution for this please just share it

I have the solution
Download the app "NOUGAT QUICK SETTINGS " and grant the ADB permissions on usb debugg. Then you activate the ambient display tile and turn it on in the Quick settings bar. Do it and you aod will back.

Here is the solution
Easy and quick
1. Go to SETTING
2. And then go to "Lock Screen and Security"
3. Click "Always On Display"
4. Turn "Show always"
Done.

Same issue on mine since few days, it's note 8.
I even put the original Samsung theme back, still no luck

Thanks a lot!!! Activating ambient display did the trick for my Galaxy S8 :highfive:

Oppo Find X2 Pro location issue

I have a very annoying issue with my Oppo Find X2 Pro and that is the location doesn't change. The weather app stays on the area that I am originally located and the camera watermark doesn't show location.
I have auto location turned on in settings and the setting for improved location and they don't do anything.
Any help appreciated please

I had a weird issue for awhile there where every time I restarted the phone, it would report that the location setting was turned off and I had to turn it back on. Strangely this issue seems to have fixed itself with no change on my behalf!
The only thing I can suggest for your issue is to download the 'GPS Status' app which will download updated GPS data. Not sure if this will help as just a one off or on-going but worth a try.

Question Weather complications not updating

I find that my weather complication on my watch face is not updating even though I have all the settings correct to allow it to do so. I have enabled allow access all times on battery, no optimizing Etc. Has anybody else faced this problem and fixed it successfully? Thank you

check a different watchface.... and see if it's the same
if it is then it's the watchface problem.
a good starting point...to investigate

Thanks I will try that

I read somewhere (Samsung I think) having the weather on your phone set to not optimized and even a weather widget on the home screen will help if not solve the issue. I personally don't use the weather widget but having the weather app on the phone run in the background with full location permissions helps a lot. I don't have location on the watch turned on I let it rely on the phone for that, as I always have my phone with me. (LTE version of the watch 4 non classic, if it matters).

I actually tried all of that but it hasn't worked so far. I'm trying a new watch face and seeing if the update Works through that. Thanks

The Weather tile for me NEVER changes location automatically. It just adds the location I'm at then stays there unless I delete it and readd current location

Same problem, i can't use the weather app, and when it tries to open it on my phone, The Galaxy Wear App just crashes. I think it's because I don't use the weather on my samsung, and maybe even desactive the weather app but not sure about this, that was like 2 years ago

Also have the same problem on the weather app and weather tile, can't find my location.....I don't have samsung smartphone, but I already check and allow location for wearable app, watch 4 plugin on the phone and also check and allow location for weather app on the watch and activate location on it.....µBut nothing to di, I can't update weather.....
Someone have a working solution for this, cause it's really anoying , thisnis one of the integrated feature I can't launch correctly.....
