Seriously, go into Settings > Date and Time and select the checkbox that has your phone take the time from your network, see if that helps.
Beyond that, the internal clock of most devices is powered by a seperete battery. It sounds like that battery is going dead or there is a hardware problem that is causing the clock to run slow. Next step would be a service center or learn to live with being back in time.

thanks for the help
ive downloaded clock sync which seems to work for the time being
The SGS has no separate battery for time as if you remove the battery for about 5 mins, your clock will be reset.
My guess would be that the network time is turned ON and sending you false data. Just uncheck it and set the correct time and it should stay that way.

Translated from Italian
I'm studying it to see how it works, can someone help me?
Why don't you just link to the official thread? http://www.swedroid.se/forum/showthread.php?t=38703
I can tell you it's working!
/edit
Works like this:
When screen is off the app checks every 30 sec to see if there is any new incoming email, sms/mms, calls. If it's returned as true the lights of your touch buttons light up. It lights up every 10 sec for 3 hours. If the phone is not wakened withing that time, it stops.
The first time you have to press "start" to start the process. If you tick the "start service on boot", it's not necessarily to press start.
Test it with the "test" key.
You can also set the default value of the brightness of the buttons with this app
Think that's about what is important from that post.
Very nice, thanks for the hint.
I was watching the fact that is fulfilled by Log messages, is it normal?
Perfect Thnx a lot for the link.
Missed this feature since my change from Desire

checks every 30 sec? is it possible a battery drain issue or let the phone never sleep?
that was my thoughts too... Will check it out for a day and see.

Wow, looks&works nice.. What about battery life impact?
I'm afraid it will drain terribly the battery... if someone can help me understand where is the code that controls the leds, I can try to set it up so that it's activated by notifications, instead of checking for them... we might need Paul's help here!!!
OK that's very nice and handy indeed, but i also wanna know about the battery drainage, on the otherhand using the app (or hidding menu) to reduce the output power of the leds you can conserve lot's of energy tho .
Yeah I'm not sure that's the way it's supposed to be done. While I am grateful for the dev of this app, I think the goal is to have these LEDS tied in to the Android Notification system itself, because any other way will be a drain on the battery.
Tegra2 is awesome because it takes up so little power in idle. If we have an app checking every 30s, the SoC is no longer idle, per say. If we increase the timer to let it idle, it's no longer a real notification system. Hence, this is probably not the way to go.
No I'm not sure where this is handled in Android though. If i'm not mistaken, a setting activated or not on the ROM, to tell the OS wether the phone has or not a LED for notifications. If so, we just need to rerout those acceses to the button LEDs. Then again, wtf do I know lol.
If anyone wants to point me in the right direction I'd love to look into that more closely (I dev C++, Java so should be able to work something out) Pm me.
There could be some push notification that goes to the notification bar, that may be used to also trig this software?
I guess it doesn‘t wake up the machine but runs as a background process.

I've used it for a day now, fr6, 1200mhz overclock. After a lot of texting, and intense music playing I still have 30% battery. At the bottomline, I haven't noticed any impact on the battery life.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
I'm having a go at writing my own version that can do both brightness settings and notifications. So far I've caught up to Paul's app feature-wise, and will tackle notifications in a bit (hopefully in a more battery friendly way).
If I'm first done then I might put it on the market, but otherwise it's a great learning exercise for me!

My fix is a 80$ liveview but I'm sure that's a little out of context.. still wish this phone came with an led notification. :/

Code:
echo 20 > /sys/devices/platform/star_touch_led/wled
20 is the brightness value i think.
I've used mine for 7 hours now, 50% left.
I've used wimp for music, wifi hotspot and xda/web. That's prof it's good enough for me...
Nice app! Just what I was looking for!
does the incredible s reboot nightly for anyone?
My wife tells me that every night the phones light shines very brightly all of a sudden and it it either makes a sound or vibrates. I am a sound sleeper so I don't wake up.
This morning I noticed that there is a notification telling me if I want to send the report to HTC for the system crash. And I think I've seen this every day, but I just didn't pay attention to it.
So could the phone be crashing or rebooting every night?
I haven't heard of it before ... not that i can recall at least.
It sounds like that is exactly what is happening, the bright light, the sound, the vibrate... and of course the crash report.. lol...
it is quite odd for it to happen only during the nights though, seems like some event at a particular time triggers it
First try:
Try uninstalling a few apps which could be doing this, for example some app that is set to go off or update ( a weather app or location app for example ) at certain intervals of time.
Last shot:
i would back up all my data and do a factor reset or even better an update to 2.3 if ur not already on it!
P.S ... sorry i cant think of another solution at this point of time maybe some other members can help !

I had GPS turned off last night. Tonight I am going to turn off autosync. Then the next night I'll look into weather. I sorta wish there was an app that would just turn my phone off each night at a certain time.
I'm not sure I can upgrade to gingerbread. I have asia (708) phone. And I'm not convinced the gold card trick for the wwe version works. I figure I can just wait a month for the OTA.
Do you have a management app with a night profile turned on lile juice defender?

Last night I had installed "Night Mode" app. Didn't really work as far as stopping the bright lights. And I don't think its the cause, since I've noticed this several nights in a row. I'll look into juice defender.
I had my fair share of random reboots, however, not nightly
I almost wanted to sent the phone back to HTC, but due to tight travelling schedules, I couldn't.
I tried a couple of things, but I think the action that made all the difference was formatting the SD card with the phone
Maybe you can give it a shot... but please backup all your current data on the SD card first, or use another card
Good luck
PS: Gold card trick worked fine for me... Singapore purchased IS
Disable/uninstall all powermanagers and task managers. Like juice defender and others.
SD card format could work, but its to timed I guess.
If you are charging overnight, use the charger u got with your phone and make sure it has some space so you don't overheat.
After that and nothing works, a factory reset is one of your only options...

Keep trying ... if nothing works out, just factory reset to get rid of it permanently, after taking a back up....

I had a few but non since i upgraded to 2.3.
Hi,
I encounter the same problem and is not happening during the night, it happens just any time. I have no Juice Defender anymore and it was upgraded to 2.3...Still it happens, seldom...
Any more ideas where to look?
Thanks
The past couple of nights it has not happened. Each night I make sure to turn off auto synchronization. I am going to try a few more things.... But for now it looks like some app is trying to synchronization and causing the reboot.

I have never noticed any reboot since I bought IncS, I can even reach 200++ hours on.

When using the phone with 'Stamina Mode' switched on I got the message that the phone was kept awake because of 'Devices'. I went into my Pwer Management > Battery Usage, and to my surprise Devices is at the top of the list, it has used 19% of my battery. It has a red icon (round circle) with a 'Movies' pictogram in it. The information about Devices is the following:
Code:
CPU Total: 12m 58s
CPU Foreground: 0s
Keep awake: 2h 33m 48s
Data sent: 2.98MB
Data received: 9.30MB
When I open Settings > Apps > Running and look for 'Devices' I find three services: DlnaDmsService, PushDerviceImpl and UpnpServiceCp. I also find the com.sonyericsson.dlna service. Does anyone know why dlna is running on my phone, even when I'm not connected to WiFi? What could be causing the wake? I do not have dlna enabled, and I think 'Devices' is a strange name for an Android process, especially with the Movies icon.
TL;DR:
What is Devices, why iis it running when I'm not on WiFi, and Can I disable it permanently?
Did you use throw or media share?

I have used throw once on a Bravia TV, but I have turned media sharing off after that. This was about a week ago, and I have rebooted the phone at least two times since. My bluetooth headset has been connected for about an hour, and when it connects it is in the 'Throw' list. But is this a reason for the phone to use CPU wake time when WiFi AND Bluetooth aren't even connected?
Noticed mine was doing the same since yesterday over 45% battery useage for Devices.
I did work out how to use Throw yesterday, cant seem to get it to stop now
Just done a power volume+ reset and see if it clears up
If you refresh batter stats - the "Devices" changes to com.sonyericsson.dlna for a fraction of a second
Yup this is what kills Stamina Mode if you use throw you're phone will be like this for a while. Even when you turn all the auto stuff off it will happen again when you next throw. Hopefully it will be fixed, if not then it settles down again after a day or two.

But does using a Bluetooth Stereo Headset qualify as 'using Throw'? Because it shouldn't have anything to do with dlna, right?
It has happened to me once when I've used Walkman but I haven't managed to replicate it, but Throw it has done it to me repeatedly.

Hmm... interesting. Thanks for sharing your insights! Tomorrow I'll disable the 'Devices' application and see what it means in terms of battery usage and loss of functionality. I'll report back at the end of the day.
Today I disabled Devices. Bluetooth worked as it should, and my battery is at about 56%. I guess it's okay if you don't use DLNA. Of course this is all subjective, but I do think that my battery is lasting a little bit longer. If you're not using throw I recommend disabling Devices. You can disable it in Settings > Apps > All > Devices > Disable.
Stop Throw
So, anyone knows how to totally stop Throw???
No matter what I try, I keep getting the Throw symbol in my status bar.
No and I would like to know this. Seems like when you load it once, you're stuck with it (unless you disable).

tbh, didn't notice that. only one thing i noticed, is that for some reason, under date+time, i have utc +2 and there should be +1 (yes, it is set to auto ). but even with it, time is accurate... resetting phone might solve it.
not sure that will help.. I already reset the phone twice.. My time zone is +3 but even when i set it to +3, the time looks ok, but when the screen is off for long time the clock is delayed to 1hour_1.40 hour..

This morning i found 1 month delay instead of one hour, the time was set to May 22. i even found that all missed calls were arranged to this day. My email accounts always need attention due to this issue. i reset the phone with no success.

Just look for auto reboot, in the Google play store the first result is: auto reboot (ROOT only) I use this app for about 2 months, it works perfectly it is automatically scheduled for every day so just select the time and 1 minute after the selected time it reboots.
