My TyTN II is losing time

This is one I havent encountered before but apologies if its been reported already. I couldnt find an obvious thread.
I have noticed recently that my Kaiser is not keeping time - quite dramatically so!
When I turn my device on from standby, the clock is often 20, 30 mins or even hours behind.
I have tweaked the hell out of it recently so I am quite sure it is related to something ive done as it hasnt happened on previous builds.
I am using synchrotime almost everytime i turn it on just to make sure the clock is right (hope this doesnt clock up too much data :-( ).
Anyway just wondered if anyone else had come across this?

Try turning the auto time setting in the phone settings to OFF, early on we found this to cause random time problems as well as causing active sync to run all the time.

Thanks. I'll give it a go.

Mine did that last night - 40 minutes slow. Never had that problem since i first got it a couple of months ago. Once it got coverage again, it syn'd back up.

Did that fix your issue?
I've got another interesting one. My clocks are right, but my text-messages show as an hour ahead (received one at 3pm PST and it shows as 4pm PST in the list). I do have the 2007DST patch from Microsoft and everything else is configured right. Is there another setting somewhere for txt-msgs?

this happens for me too. i dont no what is causing the delay. when i have my phone on device lock, whatever time it was when i locked it, it stays like that until i unlock. i noticed it recently, almost missed an appointment because of it!
tried turning off that auto time thing that dont have any effect.

worked perfectly thanks

3G data drain and repeated messages

I've had 2 problems with my G1, one of which for quite a while.
Starting off with the most severe and recent one, my phone has been randomly draining by data connection while I'm asleep. A couple of weeks ago, I woke up with my 3G turned off because I had reached my limit. As soon as I check my Netcounter, it seems like transfers up to 250MB had been made. But the phone was lying idle on my stand! I have no idea why this may happen and I believe I have a log that may have the problem included within.
As for my long lasting problem, my girlfriend has been complaining my phone sends her repeat message countless times, at random times. Sometimes 3 at a time, sometimes just 1.
I have no idea why this is happening either, but since I have free texts, I've been ignoring the problem so far.
Hope some of you can help me out with these.
Thanks!

For the first problem, hit menu->settings->accounts and sync -> turn off background data and autosync. Your phone automatically syncs your information with your google account, including gmail, contacts, calendar, market, etc. By turning this off your phone will no longer automatically update that, so make sure that you turn it on when using wifi every once in a while so you don't waste your data.
As for the second problem I have no idea, but I too noticed it does that sometimes.

Well, usually I'm not too concerned about data limits because my monthly limit is 300MB, more than acceptable for a phone, in my opinion. However, how can an idle phone sync text-based data up to a size of 250MB? It's like my phone was streaming a tv show to keep itself entertained until it had to ring the alarm!

It's happened again just now (a couple of minutes ago) and as soon as I get a USB cable, I'll transfer the log onto here. Hopefully someone can figure out the problem.

Then you must have installed an app which is using more data then you are aware of. Either try uninstalling unwanted apps or use an app that blocks internet access (I think one of them is droid firewall something, and I think autostarts does this too. check for yourself).

[Q] Market Developer Console Not Updating

I just published my first android apps in the Market about 2 days ago, and I've noticed that the data in the Developer Console has been EXTREMELY slow to update.
For instance, I published an app just yesterday afternoon and it still says 0 downloads. However, my server has 100+ registrations from people using the app, so I know at LEAST 100 people have downloaded it.
Is something screwy going on with their servers or is it normally this slow to update data? Thanks in advance to anyone who replies

It updates once a day seemingly at different times every day. Also, sometimes the stats are still off and occasionally will get corrected magically.

Thanks for the response. That seems to be what I've been experiencing too. Although I have noticed comments and ratings update instantly. Downloads/Active Users stats only once a day.

Help identify rogue data usage

Over the last few hours, according to the built in mobile data usage meter, android OS has used nearly 1GB of data and keeps climbing after rebooting. In a normal month android OS doesn't even appear in the list of things that use data. Is there a way of identifying precisely what has gone rogue and deal with it. This is the second time in several months this has happened. Obviously if this keeps happening I'm going to get hit with overage charges for data. But I don't even know where to begin looking to identify the cause. Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

Try this. Go to settings > backup and reset, and then turn off everything under google backup.

I got a similar thread in the g4 q a. Restrict background data. if ure like me use exposed look for module or in post for link to disable the restr data notifacation. I am try to figure this one out my os uses ridiculus amounts of data and i do not have any syncs or backups that run. The restrict. Seems to have stopped it but some apps wont work properly. For say i use flip clock widget and weather wont update unless i turn off restriction. We have a few looking into this i get 1.5 gigs of data a month and 80% is used by os

For me, Android OS is my biggest data hog, more than Chrome and Maps. I am interested in whether anyone can pinpoint the part of the phone using so much mobile data.
But more important question, why does Android hide specifics from us? What is the point of hiding all the details under the umbrella term "Android OS"? It would be awesome if we could see a breakdown of what components make up the total, so we could see whether something was acting up.

Thats what im working on. Like i said ive almost eliminated it with restricted data but thats just a bandaid. Mine was fine till about a month ago or so and went nuts using data

lg g4 uses data secretly.. :S i am on zv6, even time i clear cache, it download software update secretly, even after disabling all the apk which are responsible for lg g4 upgrade. upgrade notification on lg g4 is sent by Google Play services, not an OTA apk message. I have to disable notifications from google play services or system upgrade message won't go..
so everytime we clear cache, it wil download system upgrade without your acknowedgement, no matter you are on 3g or 4g or wifi... and it wont even show upgrade notification if cause we turned it off..
i made a dummy update.zip and immutable it. everytime i clear cache i do that first.. now i dont see any rogue usage of data..

Question WiFi Issues

Good day everyone, I'm having a really frustrating problem since I got my phone a month ago. I hope I can get some help here.
From day 1 I've had issues with network on my WiFi. No issues connecting to it, no issues using the internet, let me explain. I first noticed it on MIUI Themes. That was the first thing I went into after setting up my phone. It kept saying "can't connect to network". I figured it was a bug and will be fixed in the 12.5 update (spoiler alert: it didn't). Then I started to notice during setting up of my accounts, discord, reddit, etc. that the login was incredible slow the first time. It would just keep loading when I hit next. Not long after, I downloaded a game and it refused to update saying "can't connect to server". I had to start the process with my data then switch back to WiFi. For clarity, once I'm in the game itself there's no issues, the stability never drops, I never lag, etc.
It became truly evident it wasn't isolated incidents when I would open one of my online shopping apps. It loads the main screen instantly but when I switch the tab to see notifications, the page would load but the notifications would take up to 30 seconds to load. If I clicked on it, the next page would take another 30 seconds to load. Since I've used this app on my previous phone/ipad on the same WiFi I could tell there was something wrong. It should be instant. I opened up MI Community app and I kid you not, it must have taken me 10 - 15 minutes to create an account with all the loading/lag. Every single time I open the app, it takes at least 40 seconds to a minute to load with other pages lagging as well.
I started this long process of trying everything I could find that talks about it which was not much and usually about older phones. I tried everything I could find except factory reset (some have said it doesn't fix it after trying it themselves). I tried all the WiFi adjustments, traffic mode, off private DNS, developer mode options, and obviously reset networks/router/reboot multiple times.
After spending a couple of hours trying to find every mention of this whether it's Youtube, websites or Reddit and trying them (I would switch them back to default after testing the suggestions as they didn't work), my PC started giving WiFi problems. It NEVER gives problems but I figured maybe it was due to the turning on/off router multiple times. I was so frustrated, I was like, screw this I'm done.
I restarted my PC and switched to my PS4 (which runs on the same WiFi with no issues ever in 3 years). As my PS4 booted up, I picked up my phone to check the delivery status on my shopping app and BAAM! For the first time since I downloaded the app, my notifications appeared instantly like it should, the next page loaded immediately. I was like, hold up... I went into MI Community app and BOOM! it loaded immediately, I was shook. One final test, MIUI Themes that has never worked properly since day 1 with its constant "can't connect to network". BLAAM! Every page, instant, clean sweet speed. It felt like a whole new phone, like the new phone that I was supposed to feel all along.
I enjoyed a good 6 hours of bliss, constantly checking my shopping status just as an excuse to enjoy witnessing the speed. He giveth and then he taketh away and as luck would have it, there was a power outage midday. When the power was back on and the WiFi was up, we were back to the suffering. I tried to restart my PC as that was the key trigger and it worked for about a minute and then was the end of it. No amount of shutting down / restarting PC/router fixed it again.
There's something blocking the connection between my router and phone I believe. I figured the initial restart PC fix stopped the connection to the PC and gave the priority to my phone, if you will. That's rubbish I know because my WiFi runs on 4 other devices and never lags.
I'm no tech expert, in fact, I'm the opposite of that, it's embarrassing. I hope y'all can see something I'm unaware of and guide me. I'm certain the phone isn't defective and my WiFi is fine on every other device not to mention it ran flawlessly for 6 hours while other devices were also using the same WiFi.
If you've read this far, thank you very much. I apologize the post is very long, I wanted to get everything in so it paints a clear picture of the issue. I'll add a TLDR just incase.
TLDR: WiFi issues from day 1 in 2/3 of apps mostly with initial connections. 1 month later a chance restart of my PC fixed it. Power outage later that day, problem returned.
