Hi - Has anyone else experienced problems with the clock not keeping proper time when it's set to use the network time?? Anyone got any ideas how to fix this, other than just switching it to manual? (I'm sure manual time setting is fine.. but they gave me a feature.. so I want to use it!!!)
Mine lags behind by 10 minutes if I turn on network time..

Mmmm. odd! Mines 7 mins behind now.. ! Incidently - What's the "XDA Mobile App" and where'd you get it from?
Yeh, I noticed this and disabled it. My old G900 was always 5 minutes behind when it tried to sync to network time (Telia in Sweden)

Mine is perfectly synced. Could be a provider problem and not because of the phone!
Mine started acting funny a few days ago. So i switched it from using network to manual and it is fine, which is weird.
Yeah i found that after i debranded my phone it no longer kept in proper time with the operator. I set the time myself last night and then changed it back to "automatic" and after i don't know how long it eventually lagged behind by between 7 and 10 minutes. Glad i'm not the only one though. Any solutions yet?
In my case the phone time went completely off when I installed a task killer app. Seems like the task killer prevented the clock from working properly. after uninstalling the app, everything went back to normal. =)
It just happened to me. Has anyone found a resolution beside manually setting the time?
With what are you comparing the X10's clock that you conclude X10's clock is lagging? Hopefully not your wall clock / wrist watch
I bought my X10i SIM free, then debranded it. My PC's clock is synchronised with the internet clock and the X10i with the operator's clock (Vodafone UK). So far the X10i has kept up with the time on my PC, haven't noticed any lagging unless I overlooked something else.

Just search the Market for "XDA". And easily googled just by typing XDA mobile app. I bet you didn't try that first, did you
By looking at my manual Rolex, of course. No. It was by comparing with Windows. it just caught my eyes at that moment

If you have a Task Killer installed... maybe it kills clock proceses... if not i dont know why it freezes...
In task killer add clock to ignore list...
I think its your providers network that's affecting it. I had this problems a few days ago but now its gone. I Have task manager installed and debranded the phone.
Hi, this is definitely an issue with device. I haven't debranded the phone, only unlocked it. I have confirmed the time with other phones on same network, its only mine that is behind 4-7 min at times. Nothing to do with debranding as I haven't done so.

+1, I had same problem
Hi - I'm the OP for this thread.... I don't have a task killer installed anymore (wasn't helping).. and the problem is still there - c.7 mins out.. consistently.. I'm guessing that it's because my handset was purchased new as an unbranded handset, on Vodafone provider.. must be something to do with the phone hooks into the network? I've left it set to manual time..
How bout this 1..
The time i put in manually workz fine in the corner however the digital clock widget endz up ahead. Like right now itz bout 8mins ahead.. the last time i switched it on was probably around 8hrz an all?

im on vodafone uk aswell and mine is lagging by 12 minutes at the moment :S i also have a problem with my alarm clock, which goes off only when it feels like it!
i have this problem with satio ,not x10
Yep, having this issue as well. Never encountered any similar issues with any other phone, using same network, at same time, in same locations. But my X10 loses time every day, by varying amounts. Always seems related to going into 2G network, and poor reception.
I sent a mail to Sony Ericsson support but no reply.

Greetings from Cyprus,
I just bought the phone before 4 days .
I fully charged for first time Thursday night and by friday night i was with out battery.
After checked the forums for the HELIX -DONUT home i installed yesterday after i fully charged again .
The problem is that before i went to sleep the phone got 50% battery , when i woke up this morning i had 4% ?
That is very strange , i killed all apps and the phone was in standby mode and drained 46% ?
So i guess my problem is the idle ?
Thanks guys , the forums are great and all of your information are useful.
Ok , i dont have to say anything for the phone , its like a God , after playing with it and got in my hands my wife's iphone , the i looked so old
Thanks again for your support and for your answers guys.
Hey, I have same with my phone. Try to install o2 german firmware and task manager from apollo and helix donut. That's work for me. I have 2 X10 black and white and now I have 4 days batery. If you wanna help pm.

Is there any trick to see actually what firmware running ?
Thanks again
Go to settings - about - build number. .. tell me with number you have it.

Firmware Version : 1.6
Baseband Version : 1.0.24
Kernel Version : 2.6.29-rel
[email protected] #2

I will try the battery now , battery is very important for my job.

Cant update to the latest x10 update, had no issues running the '20' update but when the phone is plugged into pc and downloading and preparing the update its fine then halfway along the install before the phone itself actually does anything it comes up with the box of checks asking me to check battery [which is fully charged] and to try taking the battery out them rebooting phone holding the back key etc etc to connect the phone, although the phone was connected fine.
This is happening last 2 days with this update tries on my laptop / pc and works pc lol still not getting to the install of the firmware update on the phone. Any ideas? phone is stock no rooting or hacking on it. Tried rebooting removing battery all that stuff. Was only a week ago I got R2BA020 as my original phone was replaced under warranty after the mini usb port broke.
Have you tried downloading the Sony Ericsson Update Service Software? I couldn't update at all through PC Companion but no prob with SEUS.
Just going to try this hopefully it works
It has said its installed the 140meg update although the build number on the phone is still R2BA020 is this right?
Maybe the usb cable or port is not fixed well, you know going on and off.
sent from my x10i that is banging for a 2.1 upgrade. ...
that worked fine with sues dont notice any changes for a 140mb update though lol and like i say its still build number R2BA020 ?? although checking for updates it says the phone is up to date assuming this is right
I updated late last week to 026 from 023 but to be fair I can't tell any difference. The leap seemed to be from 016 to 020 so you probably have all the goodies.
Maybe its something to do with whatever carrier you are with cos I think I gained a Tmobile 'Top Apps' thing on my menu which is quite frankly a waste of space. The market gives you its top apps anyway.
I will just check every now and then on SEUS to see if I can update again. Waiting for the big one now... 2.1 OS.
Hay all. So, I got up this morning and like I do every morning and plugged my phone into my PC to see if there is any upgrades available yet. Usually everything goes smooth without a hitch. This morning, when I tried, Kies connects to phone no problem, but yet when i check for firmware upgrades, the firmware upgrade window pops up, and is completely blank for 5 or 10 seconds (sometimes more, sometimes its instantaneous ) then a messages comes up saying 'no response from server, check your internet connection and try again". I kept trying and trying, and then FINALLY after an hour or so, it said "this devices version cannot be updated." WTF?!?!
I am running the latest version of Kies 10103.100 and usually it just says there is no updates available at this time or whatever it says..
Any ideas?? Maybe Froyo is being uploaded?!?! Anybody else suddenly have the same problem?
I'm in Canada, and completely 100% stock. JH2 2.1
EDIT: okay, I just tried again, and now I'm back to the Latest version already installed on this device... Crap.. I was hoping it was a good sign that Froyo was on it's way like someone said in another thread that claimed he worked for Bell and the update would be rolled out on the 15TH. Suppose, the day isn't over yet..
yeah i just got the cannot connect to server message as well earlier. I was hoping they are taking down the server so they can roll out the 2.2 but i guess i was wrong. lol oh well, still hoping it'll come later today.

The phone had to be rooted for it to work, and my phone is not rooted. I chose not to until I'm completely satisfied with the unit as I have had it replaced 3 times now due to defects... Thanks for your input tho. After 30 days goes by and all is still working good, and I'm more familiar with the Android OS, I'll be playing...

Fus App shows the same as kies... Nothing for Bell I9000M.

Root is only needed to auto-discover the codes, if not rooted the presets can be used. Just pm me the desired codes and I will add it to the presets.

I am not sure if there is a thread already out for this as i couldn't find one on search.
I am a SGS II user in India and i just got a KIES notice that a firmware upgrade is available to KF3.
Is this the same one as what was release on samfirware?

Firmware had already been posted in the firmware thread in the dev forum.

Do share anything you guys find too...
i jus tried updating my SGS II to KF3 via KIES it downloaded the update and after decryption of binary data the mobile display is staying on the green android logo and below it downloading ...
WHt do i do .. pls help
The update process gets stuck if KIES is not able to connect to your phone properly. Usually this ends with a popup message saying Update mode couldn't be activated or something like that.
If you do find a blue progress bar increasing slowly below the green android then all is fine, just wait. But if The process is stuck at 0% or an error comes up. Then you can try again by doing a hard reset of your phone and trying to run the update process again. Do not use the recover firmware option in Kies at this moment. The hard reset is necessary as third party launchers and other apps sometimes interfere in the connection to Kies.
To, get out of the green Android download screen and do whatever is stated above, simply remove the battery briefly and start your phone again.
Hope this was helpful. The information i provided is just based on my experience, correct me if i am wrong...

Faced the same problem. It failed the first 5 times. It worked the next time after I rebooted my laptop and the phone before attempting the upgrade.

Thanks for your feedback. But what do you mean by No.3, Lock Screen wake up lag seems to have come in? It was there in KE8 also.
And can you test if the Noise Cancellation On/Off option is included while pressing the Menu key in a voice call? It is not here in KE8.

Yuppp, I know many people faced the lock screen lag issue even in KE8/KE7 but mysteriously, I never had the issue! Where as in KF3, I now get a delay even though its just a couple of seconds.
As for the noise cancellation option during the call, both, the call screen icon as well as the menu option are still absent. :-(
