Status bar clock stuck. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The on clock on my status bar won't update anymore all of a sudden. Only once when booting up. How can I resolve this? (the clock widget on my homescreen has no problems btw)

Daylight saving time

Yeah, mine did that as well when the clocks went back. Go into the date and time settings; unselect and reselect 'Automatic'. That fixed it for me.

There is no reason to do so, when the clock has been changed, it is back to normal until the spring when it will change again

Well, trust me I did everything for my Xperia L when I encountered this problem.

Look two three posts before it for more information!
What fixed it was taking battery out for few minutes and putting it back again!

[Q] Lockscreen reversed? Need help to fix.

Anyone know why my lockscreen weather shows nighttime during the day and daytime at night? My homescreen weather is correct. Using Myn's nightly.
Edit: Fixed in latest nightly.

I'm guessing that your clock is 12 hours off. Go to Settings>Date & Time. Make sure Automatic is checked. That will use the network time instead of a time that is entered which is probably 12 hours off (i.e., AM instead of PM, etc).
Yeah, that was the first thing I checked but it's already set to auto. Why would my homescreen show correctly but not my lockscreen?

Dock bar on ics Rom, app disappeared

I froze my messaging app to install the ics one a little while ago, when I unfroze it it dissapeared from my dock bar. Any way I can get it back without flashing the Rom again?

Should be a setting in your personalize meun or lock screen settings menu to choose which app icons/short cuts appear on the lock screen. Also after you unfroze them did you reboot ??

3rd Party Launcher Issues Stock JB I9300

So I have just installed the stock jelly bean on my phone and decided that the touchwiz crap used too much RAM so I installed nova. What I found was that when swiping accross on the home screen the folders and widgets would light up around the edges then "turn off" about a second after the swipe has finished. Another unusual thing was as I swiped the clock widget and would go back a minute while retaining the same time and showing two times at the same time. It shows the normal time the same time as the others go back to normal. So I thought I would try Apex launcher. I then found out it didn't he same thing with the icons but not the clock. Is this an S3 fault or is there a hidden setting for this?
Thanks,

P.S. not sure how to make a thread a question on the xda app
This is a well-documented issue at this point. The "fix" turns off hardware rendering via GPU and sends it to CPU. No resolution other than 1) using the "fix," or 2) learning to live with it til it can be addressed.
Thanks for the quick reply. I think I will just try and live with it firbthe moment.

Speed Rom "clock style" is messed up

So in the clock settings on the speed rom I changed the time to center in middle of notification bar. Now when I put it back so the time shows on the far right its in both(right and center of notification bar) And the center time hides other notifications I would like to see.
Tried reboot but no help.
What should I do?

easiest way to reset a rom without having to flash it again is to do a factory reset.. but just make sure to backup everything first.. (your apps/txt/etc)
Yeah I wanted to avoid the resetting but if that's what I have to do I guess so

Temperature on lockscreen?

Been searching all over in the settings to be able to change the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Anybody know where to do this for the lockscreen?

Maybe tapping on the widget with the weather on the home screen and going into the settings in that app

You might want to take a second look. It's not a global setting, but controlled by the app. So open the app that the widget is linked to and look in the settings menu for that app.
In particular, if you are using the default accuweather app, that is indeed where the setting resides. You may also want to recreate the widget to speed up the change i.e. don't expect that the change will always be reflected instantaneously.
.
OK thanks, I figured it's tied to a certain weather app. Will keep looking. Here is a pic of my lockscreen,

That appears to be the Accuweather app. From memory.. tap or double tap on the time or temperature on the home screen to open the full page Accuweather.. then click on the menu icon there (3 dots) to get into the app's settings dialog. Then look for the C/F or metric /Imperial toggle.
.
Hmm, Not sure where that app is, I thought I had it frozen in TB. I've only got one weather app installed right now.

That one then. Whatever it is.

I froze it and restarted the phone. It did get rid of it so I know that's it, however when unfrozen there is no actual app anywhere to configure.
*Edit it doesn't come back now after unfreeze and rebooting. Oh well no big deal. The weather app I do have and use is Weather & Clock Widget.

Stand alone widgets are less common.. and will be configured from the widget itself instead of a main app then.

The reason his app settings are not showing when he taps the the temp..
Is probably because he has the
Unified Daemon frozen in TB too.
I learned it the hard way from freezing it..

Here is what my lock and home screen looks like..
Here is a link to my 2 apks if you want to try them..put them in system/app ...just rename yours to .bak and you can switch back if doesn't work but should as that's all I changed..then restart phone and replace the original weather widget and make it 100 percent transparent.
Tap on the Temp on the home screen takes you to the settings.

Cool thanks I will try them. I don't remember ever seeing the second app "weatherdaemon2014" Maybe that's it.
*edit, those worked! I didn't have accuweather in system/app, though the weatherdaemon was. Its all working now, thanks a lot for your help!
Weather App - change from C to F

I am new and this may just be an old thread that has been resolved.
I went through the entire thread and didn't see a suitable reply.
On my newly acquired Galaxy 5S, I wanted to do the same; change from C to F.
First went through the Settings App and didn't see anything that would make the change.
Sometimes things are very simple. And this was something I probably over-thought.
What I did:
Unlocked the screen, and there's the "Weather App" loaded right on the main screen at the very top of the screen.
I tapped the "Weather App" box, which brought the "Weather App" full screen.
I then tapped the three vertical dots, flush right top on the screen. This brought up four options (black text on white background).
They are from top to bottom, 'Weather map', 'More', 'Settings' and 'Report wrong city name'.
Tap on "Settings":
Then, under "General", the first settings option is "Unit".
Tap "Unit", then tap the radio button "°F" to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit.
Unless you want to continue making additional changes, such as 'Refresh', 'Location' or 'Notifications...' you are done.
There is no "Save" button. The changes that have been made I believe take effect immediately.
All you have to do is back out and get back to the main screen by pressing the Home button to get back to business.
Hope that helps someone, someplace.
Best,
Robert
Hallelujah, I have figured it out. Press on the widget on the lock screen. Select change widget. Choose Accuweather (yes, it does not appear in your apps management list) A whole page opens up with the Accuweather forecast AND in the top right corner (at least on mine) (Note 4) you get the three dots indicating a menu. Press the dots and holy cow the settings for accuweather come up. And there you will see the temperature change option. Right at the top. Hope this helps.
