[Q] Clock question - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anybody experienced their clocks reading the wrong time after having them off for part of the day and / or not having them online for most of the day? My Fire isn't rooted if that matters at all.
Thanks,
-G

Yes i have experienced that on my rooted KFHD but that was fixed when i restarted the device!

Date and time reset after change of battery

Guys, today I encountered a problem on my Galaxy Note.... when I remove and replace the battery (a proper switching off the phone), I need to reset the date and time again!!! This is the FIRST time I have encounter this!! Previously, nothing wrong at all?
Any experts here knows what is going on??
I've had this too. I have 2 spare batteries as battery life on my Note is pathetic. Sometimes when I switch them it will rest the date/time. I've installed Clocksync from the market to auto sync with a time server on boot. It may still happen every now and then but I don't see it because Clocksync does it's thing before I notice.
lol same here, never encountered that before but now it happens everytime i take the damn battery out.
I resolved it by ticking the automatic time zone.

+1.
Check the option
"Settings > Date and Time > automatic date and time"
This should pull the time from ur network operator

Is common problem since GB day when you flashed the tw custom rom. But not every custom rom encounter this problem. Just as suggested tick the auto zone time.

i'm using stock rom, it happens to me when for about 2 to 3 weeks ago. it is very annoying
do u have the time auto sync on?... that resolved most of tw problems

I recently came across this issue as I had to change my SD card several times. I do have auto time sync enabled but the sync occurs about 1-2 minutes after the phone booted. Which leads to various annoying issues with different apps (e.g. Reminders pop up again, Alarms go off, previously scheduled and already sent SMS are re-sent etc.).
I just stumbled across this post. Not sure whether the Galaxy Note has a BAT500 or similar battery/capacitor. My Note is ~1 yr. old and unfortunately I can't remember if it ever kept the date & time. So I'm wondering if I should send it in for warranty. But that post made me wonder too:

Do you mean this is ROM related? I'm currently on the CM10 Nightlies.

I recently bought a spare battery and followed the guide saying it's better to charge the battery when it's really low. So I encountered my phone battery totally flat sometimes, especially in the morning. I guess the small battery on the board that keeps the date and time up to date runs empty when a totally flat battery is still in the phone for some time. I think this date-and-time-reset thing Might not happen that fast compared to a phone without a battery in it (like when it's new). The circuit is complete for the small battery on board to discharge fast with a "totally flat" battery in the phone I guess?
If anyone knows about this, and solved it, please help here. Thanks.
I hope after a few charges the battery on board can restore? Or it has to be replaced?
not sure if you get the battery on the board to replace

Hi Massimo 2001,
The N7000 has a BAT600 on board. There are schematics circulating on the web. As far as I can see, this is purely a hardware issue and should be covered by warranty.
I have had the same problem and have now sent my Note in for repairs. Will let you know how it works out.
Too bad, I'm no longer on warranty.

Since 4.4.2 Random Reboots

Hey,
Ever since the OTA update my phone reboots randomly about once every two days [I'm on Verizon].
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Screen just goes black, vibrates once quickly, then its back on that LG G2/Verizon screen and then boots. Then everything is fine.

Nope... Have you done a FDR yet? It is highly recommended to do one after taking this OTA if you have ANY kind of trouble at all.

It's a fairly common occurrence for people on custom builds. I've noticed it when trying to do too many things at once.
There also apparently appears to be a link between SwiftKey and this problem from what I've read, or maybe that's an entirely different problem.
Mine have stopped after I disabled Google Services Sound Search.

I just rooted my phone about a week ago, I'm still on the 4.4.2 KK ROM and have Swiftkey and Google Services enabled. I also am using the Complete Keyguard Disabler.
A few things I've noticed are:
1)Random reboots/Phone overheating
2)Sluggish/unresponsive phone performance coming out of 'sleep' using double tap
3)Speaker/headphone Viper4 mod not working properly
Is a factory reset something I should consider if I didn't root the device until after the 4.4.2 update or is there something else causing these issues? I'm sure there is some user error in #3 as I'm going through the learning curve, but the most concerning is by far the #1 and 2, as I rooted it for the main purpose of increasing performance speed.
Any insights?

I haven't looked at any logs or anything on a remotely technical level. I noticed the google sound search was eating battery so I disabled it. Reboots are gone.

First and foremost, I was not rooted or using anything customer. I never tried rooting this phone because I figured there would be updates in the near future (I was optimistic).
I am also receiving:
Random Reboots
Overheating
Random Apps Crash frequently (Kindle, Search, Home, etc)
I am also using swiftkey.

I believe there are known issues with the G2 and Swiftkey on stock roms (rooted, custom, or otherwise).
What language are you using on Swiftkey. I'm on Swiftkey and Carbon and I'm not having any problems.

I'm also on Swiftkey and am experiencing very similar issues, using English as well.
On a side note, I also work in a building that has no cell service and continuously cycles through wifi connections because the 3 networks I have entered vary greatly in strength based on a 10 ft radius of where I walk.. could this be a cause as well and is there a way to stop it from happening?
I've tried removing all of the connections except 1 wifi signal but then I'm really only connected when I'm at my desk and if I standup to walk somewhere it's disconnected...

These issues are still persisting... anyone think taking it to Verizon would do anything?
My phone is completely stock. I am wondering if I should just flash a new ROM or something.

Wife's Note4 screen stays on.

Hello and Happy Turkeyday to all. I have an issue with my wife's note. When she gets any notifications they turn the screen on and it doesn't turn off. I feel pretty knowledgeable about the android O.S. in a whole, I have my S5 rooted and running AICP. I just can't figure out why the notifications cause the screen to stay on. Has anyone else had this problem maybe you could help shed some light on my issue. Thanks in advance.
Is the phone rooted?

No she won't let me root her phone.
Same problem
I have the exact same problem on my Note 4 (N910F).
My phone is rooted and I have had the problem from the start.
I am also running a custom kernel now but the problem persists.
Any ideas on why this is happening anyone? I've got it to not turn the screen on for a notification but now it won't turn off when plugged in.
Turn off the lock screen notifications, or everything you can on the lock screen settings, most likely something is causing the screen to wake lock. My bet is the weather widget.

So a little update, so far, my problem seems to be fixed.
After the app told me that Dsploit was causing a lot of screen-on time, I disabled the app.
Haven't had it happen so far today so I hope this helps you too.

Can anyone else have other fix? I have new note 4 with rom stock and very few apps (5-8 apps)
the "Wakelock Detector-Save Battery" app requird root this not my phone so I can't root for now.
If you have very few apps installed, uninstall those apps one by one to see which one is potentially keeping the screen on. Otherwise, do a factory reset, clear cache; also ensure power button is sticky and is fully functional.

And set the Screen time to 30 sec and shut down the deivce got the battery out turn on, set the Screen time to 1 min and shut down...

Froze twice!!

Last night and today it completely froze had to press power and volume down to reboot removing swiftkey just to see if that is the cause anyone else with freezing issues.
No freezing issues here at all. Been using it for two days now. Maybe a restore will help?
my wife had to do this 4 times in 2 weeks, any idea what caused it, is it still happening to you, anyone else?

It only happens when I install Swiftkey keyboard for some odd reason I use secure folder and I think Swiftkey doesn't play nice with secure folder let me know please.

Had mine since the 19th of September with no freezes or reboots. You can boot into safe mode and if it doesn't freeze it's definitely something you've installed. If it freezes in safe mode I'd see about getting it replaced.

GPS Issue after PIE update

I have updated to Pie yesterday and I found that my GPS is kind of not working.
When I start any navigation app, it gets my position but then it just doesn't work. Also, when I fired up the GPS Status app, I didn't get any GPS fix even after 5 minutes in my car.
Does anyone have the same problem or knows how to fix it? I am afraid that a factory reset won't help.. Should I try to wipe the cache partition?
The phone hasn't been rooted
Thanks
