Hey guys,
Ever since changing to DL30 (using the latest Blackhole ROM and Superdark Theme), my clock does not report the correct time. I have gone into the settings and made sure it is on automatic, but it is not pulling the correct time. This morning for example it showed 6:05am instead of 6:30am.... not good when my phone is my alarm clock.
Any ideas how to fix this? Should I just set the time manually? Strange issue though, my phone used to sync to the correct time just fine.
Thanks!
I Love duplicate threads. But join the party others are having HERE.
good day.

Okay, so I've noticed that on both my lock screen and Clock app, that my alarm clocks don't show up as the Human Readable time format. For example, I have an alarm set for 6am tomororow (1/12/2010), and when the lock screen is showing it has the alarmclock icon and show "1263294000000" next to it, which is the epoch time for 1/12/2010 6:00:00 am. It also does this in the clock app on the app's home screen, but if I go into the alarms screen it shows up fine.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Weird. Mine shows up in a normal time. I've tried looking through the clock app, and system settings and couldn't find a way to replicate your issue.
Since yours is rooted it may have something to do with what youve flashed to it so far.
Or maybe not cause im rooted with cyan and just tried and it appeared fine

Lol. Yah. I've got a few friends around here that have basically the same setup. Not really an issue, more a nuisance. But I seriously don't get it. I'll probably try and reset later today and recreate it. I was just curious if any one else noticed this.
Strange.
I have another question for the clock app:
Is there a way to turn off the charging light and the backlight on the capacitive buttons when in the dimmed clock app mode? The screen is actually quite nice and readable in the dark but the bright lights next to it are annoying / wash the screen out some.
Maybe it's something in Locale settings? That's where I'd look.

Trust me, I went through just about every possible 'setting' i could possibly think of. I'm assuming it has something to do with a program i have installed. I haven't had the time to do a reset yet, but plan on giving it a shot later.
Here's what I know though, its not normal, and its not because of root. Seems no one else is having this issue. lol, WTF.
Just recently got the Shift and so far its a big nice upgrade from the hero.
I don't currently have root access and am pretty much running stock everything, with the exception of Launcher Pro and some custom icons.
The issue I am running into is that occasionally my alarm clock goes off w/o the option to snooze or dismiss.
The only way to remedy this is to yank the battery... (at least thats how I deal with it at 6:am and I want to snooze)
Anyone else have this problem or know of a way to fix it?
Thanks.
I had the problem show up a few times on my Hero before the official 2.1 release, but I don't remember if anything I tried fixed it. Just letting you know it's not just you.
I know the alarm clock snooze/dismiss settings are tied to HTC Sense. Maybe launcher pro is messing with Sense somehow.
I think the controls to dismiss or snooze the alarm are tied to the lock screen. I don't use launcher pro, but I wonder, does launcher pro replace the stock lock screen?
Ive had similar problems...im stock rooted and still using sense and occasionally have this problem...i usually use audio manager widget to lower the volume so its not driving me crazy and then set a new alarm for like a min later...when the snooze/dismiss options appear for the new alarm i hit dismiss and all the alarms stop
Why not install DeskClock.apk?

No, it doesn't.

That's the same way I've been solving it Seems that if I turn off the phone (Kyocera Zio 2.2) whilst having an app on screen (ie turn it off from within an app or fxn) the incidence is quite high. If turned off from home screen, doesn't occur (or at least not very often - can't quite be sure, but 95% certainty) Just wanted to make someone aware of it. Glad to see it wasn't just me who noticed it. Having to take the case off, battery out, et al are annoying, and just seems a goofy fix for what is generally a nice piece of equipment! Someone else (Hero user?) is changing their vol setting and then setting another alarm for a min later to have the shut-off option appear. I may try that in the future. THANK YOU for the site!!
Anyone having a problem with the digital clock stock widget? My widget size is 3x1 and when installed, cuts off the day/date text. Is there a 4x1 size option? Seems like something has happened to my widget. I am latest version, stock, rooted. Anyone else having similar problem? It's very aggravating.

Mine did this last Sunday and has been the same ever since. I have rooted but am still running latest stock firmware

But I believe it's always been like that.
The Day text is cut off and shifted down a line so it shows:
Wednes
day
Rather than:
Wednesday
I don't use a clock on my screens though as there is one in the lower right corner.
EDIT
Ah looking back on some earlier Tab images used as promo's it is clear it should be the Day and Date in 1 line... Not sure what could be causing this. *scratches head*
I solved the problem by going into settings/applications/digital clock and uninstalling the updates. Seems like the latest update screwed my digital clock up. Once I did that, it works like it should and doesn't cut off anything...day/date on first text line, and city on second text line. And, the size of the widget is now 5x2. I knew something wasn't right with the size. That's why it was cutting off the day/date text.
woo hoo.
Mine did that when I tried to set the city name to nothing (blank).
Setting a name fixed it.
I see now that that doesn't work. Sorry for the misinformation.
Can't find any updates to remove to fix widget size.
Re jyams's fix, I've the same problem but can't find any way to uninstall any clock updates.
Is this because mine's not rooted?
The fact that the day is show followed by a comma tells me that the widget size is the problem.
More confused than ever
Just noticed that when the tablet comes out of standby, awaiting the padlock to be dragged, the original, properly displayed time widget is displayed. It has a different font but isn't truncated, it's as if I'm using the wrong widget on the homepage.
anyone find a fix? Mine was normal until I decided to rearrange my Widgets and deleted the stock one now I have this problem.
I had the same issue once, messed with it for like a day trying to get it to work...finally figured out that if I lock the rotation with the switch then reboot, it causes the clock widget to malfunction. Playing with the rotation lock switch, making sure to end up in the unlocked position, then rebooting fixed it for me. Don't know if it will work for you, but worth a shot.
I am on the official CM10.1 RC2. I didn't flash anything else other than a fix for Wi-Fi ARP when in sleep mode, as well as an older radio to enable LTE.
What has been going on every since I flashed my first CM10.1 nightly (got the phone on May 2) is that every other time I wake the phone, the lockscreen widgets disappear.
This is a 100% predictable and totally consistent pattern. If I wake the phone and my lockscreen widgets are visible, then the next time I lock the phone and wake it, the lockscreen widgets disappear. If I wake the phone and my lockscreen widgets are missing, I can guarantee they'll come back if I immediately lock and wake it again.
I know it's not an Android 4.2 problem, because my sister's HTC One S doesn't have this issue and it's set up the same way.
To illustrate what I mean, these are the two states my lockscreen always alternates between:
Been trying to find an answer for this... maybe I'm not using the right keywords :/
EDIT: SOLVED - Turns out Lockscreen Policy was the culprit. I disabled both widgets and camera and that was causing cLock to disappear every other time. Allowing widgets while disabling the camera eliminated the problem. Hope this helps others in the future!
Make sure you don't have two lockscreen clocks. If so, delete one.

I don't think I have two clocks. All I can find in the settings is the "Clock widget" in the Lock screen section which is what I want to use.
Any idea where I might have accidentally placed a second clock if that's the case? I didn't download any clock or calendar apps - I use the stock ones. I did restore a lot of stuff from Titanium backup on my old phone, but I clearly remember that system settings wasn't something I restored.
edit: I checked Titanium Backup and noticed that the "Clock" app (not the cLock app/widget) had been restored from my previous phone which ran CM10, not CM10.1. I remember that on CM10, the clock was right-justified, not centered, and that is what my 2nd screenshot (the scenario I want to get rid of) is showing.
Is it possible that I inadvertently restored the CM10 lockscreen clock from my old phone? I hope that doesn't mean having to wipe. I really can't find anything in the settings that might indicate the presence of more than one clock.
EDIT: SOLVED! It turns out that the Lockscreen Policy app was the culprit. I had disabled both widgets and the camera in Lockscreen Policy because I don't want people messing with my phone as a joke (otherwise what's the point of a PIN...). Re-enabling the widgets while keeping camera disabled solved everything. I confirmed that disabling widgets in Lockscreen Policy would immediately bring back this problem.
Tbh, I'd prefer having the old CM10 lockscreen, without those side widgets or the camera, and the ability to slide to a ring shortcut before bringing up the PIN
I have the Verizon LG G2. Not rooted all stock launcher etc.
I use the stock alarm clock app and for the last two days, it has been snoozing itself. I'll wake up without the alarm and it says, "snoozed until". That is what it says when you manually snooze it.
I did some testing this morning, and actually found it snoozing itself, screenshot attached.
I download a different alarm app and that one works just fine. I have looked through other posts regarding this but none are recent or in regards to the G2. If there is a solution that I am not seeing, let me know.
I have tried clearing app data and it still snoozes on its own.
Any help would be appreciated.
Now it is snoozing only the first attempt. The second, 5 min later, alarm is going off..
Bump

Go into alarm settings and if you flip action or shake action enabled. If so then that's prob the culprit.

Thanks for your help.
I looked into settings of the app, and there aren't any activated around flip or shake. However, there are a few around the back buttons (LG G2). Even still, I disabled those and it is still functioning this way. I downloaded an alarm clock app from Play Store and it works just fine.
Wondering if even trying to figure out what is going on is worth my time or effort.
