clock changes - S740, S743 General

Hello
A strange thing happened... After the automatic daylight saving switch about a week ago, my phone keeps changing the time by an hour now and then... I change it back and it does it again... It happens whether I have the automatic daylight saving thing activated or not. Anyone knows why this is?
Thanks
Mne

that happened to me when i didn't have the correct time zone set up on the clock options

Airplane mode bug?

Hello and Happy New Year to everybody!!
I recently started using my Hero as an alarm. Thus, while I am sleeping I set it to airplane mode so that the alarm rings. When I wake up it always shows a notification that the time zone has not been set. Rebooting the phone is the only way to fix it, except -of course- if I manually set it... Could this be a bug?

Screen Randomly Comes on and Won't Timeout

The last two nights I've woken up and my display has been on while charging. I unplugged it and tapped the power button to shut off the screen. A few hours later I woke up and the screen is on again. It seems it comes on when it receives a notification and then it doesn't want to time out. Screen timeout is set to 1 minute and smart stay is off. Any ideas? I have no profile or power altering apps.
Did you by chance turn power save mode off under wifi setting *#0011* ? I did that and then noticed the screen stayed on all the time. If you never touched those settings then disregard

I never touched those setting. Thanks
I would turn the phone off and pull the battery. Sounds dumb but it can fix stupid little issues like this. Otherwise I'd to a hard reset and see if that helps. If not then return it and get a new one if you can. I have not had any issue like this yet.
Lock screen options too...Make sure they are correct.
Yeah pulling the battery fixes it temporarily but then it happens again. I'm thinking it might be an app I have installed but I have the same apps installed on my One X and I don't have the issue there. I can exchange it, I work at the AT&T Store but I think it's a software issue. I might try the factory reset.

Is this Android, App or Hardware

Hi Everyone,
So I noticed not to long back that my phone has been changing brightness without the brightness bar moving. For instance I unlocked my phone moments ago and my screen was very bright. I went into my brightness settings and looked at the bar was set at 60%. As soon as I touch the brightness bar the screen dims back down to where it's supposed to be.
Now I am thinking this is purely a software issue but I am still a little worried. I have a Galaxy S3 Optus AU. It is running the LF2 firmware and is not rooted or modified. I have turned off auto brightness and power saving for the screen and this problem still persists.
Has anyone else suffered any such issues with there device?

sry my fault...read to quick
hmm the only thinng i can imagine on the go is...has been your battery been on a very low amount of percentage
because i think the power saving mode is changing the brightnes on its own
No the battery was at 90% when it happened last. I have factory reset the device to see if it fixes the issue.
OK the issue is still happening. Altho I have now noticed that it happens when unlocking the phone. If I re lock the phone and then unlock it. It's back to normal.
Well...even stock firmware is not protected to crash or do sth it shouldnt do by the way
so think about a clean install of the rom or a software update this might fix your problem

[Q] Screentime out not working

My screen will not timeout and is constantly on until I manually lock it.
This appears to have only started happening today and I cannot think what would have caused it.
I have set the timeout right down to 15sec to see if it works but it doesn't.
I have switched phone to Airplane mode incase there was a network action keeping thescreen awake but this to did not work.
Has anyone else had this issue?

Unsure what actually happened but restored to a previous back up and is working again. luckily I had made a backup only a few days ago.

[Q] Display turn on by himself and its on for 2 min...

Hi guys,
I have this annoying occurrence sometimes, my display just turn on, and its on for 2 min, which is my display sleep setting.
First of all, how can i find what can cause that??
And second question -- why it is on for 2 min?? I am using internal screen lock // cyanogenmod 10,1.... I know from my earlier use from other lock / ROM that it will turn off in about several second if I dont unlock phone...
Thanks for answers, really appreciate it...
Something's obviously triggering the screen when it's meant to be sleeping, get/install BetterBatteryStats & let it run for a bit, next time it happens have a look @ the BBS logs & see if you can track it down that way.
I used to have that issue (or at least the same result), I found it was actually a clock widget waking my phone up once every hour, on the hour. Why it turned my screen on I'll never know. Uninstalled and no issues since. So look for something similar in you case, MistahBungle has given you a good way to do that.
