Hi guys, I've got a questions for Galaxy S3 owners.
I've noticed in the lock screen options there's a toggle for "Dual Clock - Show dual clock on lock screen when roaming." Has anyone tried this and know what it does? Does it literally show a second clock (seems redundant) on the screen when your not on your home network?

I presume it is so you can display different time zones

That would be interesting and useful!
I can confirm that it shows 2 clocks one fot your settings in your phone and one for the network you are on.
It shows the roaming time and the home time. However, the home time is set to GMT, which isn't my home. I thought this was for the time zone I'm traveling in and the time for my home.

I'm roaming right now.
Roaming and home time are both correct on the lock screen
Check your settings > date & time > check both "automatic date & time" and "automatic time zone"

Simple
Just go on lock screen settings. Disable dual clock when roaming. Try to enable it again , it will then ask what is your city. You chose now your home town
If not listed just pick one within same time change. Good luck.

Want to start this thread for those of us that are new to CM7 like me. Looking for input on how to best use the capabilities of this rom. Any advice or direction would be great.
Example.
1How to change the battery icon to have a percentage instead of a icon.
Push menu button then settings hit CyanogenMod setting/ interface/ status bar tweaks/ battery status style. Here you can change the battery icon.
2 how to set CPU frequency (the speed your processor runs)
CM settings/ performance/ CPU setting. Here you can set CPU min and Max along with different governors like performance or powersave.
3 How to change notification power widget:
CyanogenMod settings/ Interface/ Notification power widget.
From here you can select what you want displayed in notification. (Widget buttons), order of the icons (Widget button order), and color under the icons (Indicator color).
4 How to set lock screen to delay the pin lock after screen is off.
Hit CM setting/ lockscreen/ delay and time out/ screen time out delay/ set it here.
Note: the following are my selections for the Security lock screen and the slide lock screen delays. You can change yours to what you prefer.
1. Select Screen timeout delay. I have this set to 10 minutes. This is the setting that sets how long to delay the security lock screen before it activates when the screen times out.
2. Select Screen turned off delay. I have this set to 10 minutes as well. This is the setting that sets how long to delay the security lock screen before it activates when you quickly press the power button to turn the screen off.
3. Make sure there is a check mark for the Enable slide lock delay setting. This ensures the slide lock screen has a separate delay from the security lock screen.
4. Select Screen timeout delay. I have this set to 5 seconds. This is the setting that sets how long to delay the slide lock screen before it activates when the screen times out.
5. Select Screen turned off delay. I have this set to Immediately. This is the setting that sets how long to delay the slide lock screen before it activates when you quickly press the power button to turn the screen off.
With these settings, my slide lock screen comes on 5 seconds after the screen times out, or immediately when I tap the power button. Then, in either case, the Security Lock screen comes on 10 minutes later.
If I tap a button before the 10 minutes expire, I am presented with my slide lock screen. If the 10 minutes has expired, then I am presented with my security lock screen. (The slide lock screen is never presented once the security lock screen has been activated.)
5 how to disable lockscreen.
CM settings/ tablet tweaks/ disable lockscreen.
6 how to mute camera shutter sound.
CM settings/ sounds/ mute camera shutter.
7 how to set quite hours were your phone automatically changes to silent.

9 how to assign long press actions to your menu: home: search: buttons.

10 how to change music settings in CM settings.

12 how to change Wifi sleep policy
Seems alot of people were complaining about wifi issues in CM7 Beta post.
Since there is no blur to change this, and the only change we have is through..
Settings/ Wireless&Networks/ Wi-Fi Settings then menu button/ Advanced/ Wi-Fi sleep policy. By default CM7 turns Wifi off when screen turns off, I adjust mine to Never and no issues with Wifi. Reboot phone after setting.
13 how to change the trash can position on screen.
Hit settings then ADWlauncher/ UI settings/ trash can positions.
14 how to change lock screen back gound/wallpaper.

15 how to swipe across notification bar to adjust brightness.
CM settings/ interface/ status bar tweaks/ status bar brightness control.
16 How to remove app labels from icons.

Here's something I figured out that most people probably already know, but just in case.
If you don't like the default colors of the status bar icons, in order to change them you have to go to Theme Chooser and then you can select a different color.
If you want more colors, go to the Themes & Applications forums for more themes.
For days I was trying to figured out in Cyanogen Settings how to change the colors of the icons. I almost went into ROM Toolbox to do it and then thought about it a bit and realized the colors are set via themes. DOH!
Yeah was about to use rom tool box for my icons to. Found a cool ICS green theme love it.

Any word on getting brightness notification bar swipe option functional on cm7 dx2 (where you control brightness by swiping your finger across notification bar)?
--nevermind, gotta hold your finger on it for a few seconds before you swipe.
screenshot
Long pressing the power button brings up the option to take a screenshot. Is this working for anyone? Anyone know where the images are stored?
Yes screen shot is working fine for me. Some times i have to reboot to get it to work. Screen shot image store in /mnt/sdcard/dcim/screenshot.

hi guys,
how did you managed to remove this korean time in the lock screen????
thxx for helping
if you have F600L , you can download app Dual clock Remover in Play Store then open it, choose chec Both, then untick the first row ( may be F600K working, i don't tried ) . Nothing solution in F600S . all app remove dual clock not working.
fantastic, thank you worked like a charm
If you have a F600S like I do I got to turn it off by accident. I was in a roaming location designated by the bars with a small R and I went into clocks and there it was. a check box to turn dual clock display off. I just unchecked it and now no more dual display on lock screen. Yes!

I got my phone into roaming mode by putting a SIM card from another country and... bam! I was able to disable it.
Worked like a charm. Thanks!
Thanks for that it has been driving me mad!
Luckily I am travelling to France tomorrow from the UK so great opportunity to switch it off!
Now If only I could get rid of the Korean language on the dialler! (http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/help/simple-help-questions-korean-import-t3239629)

just curious if is possible to force go in Roaming not having a sim from another country....
I couldn't get this to work.
The phone went into Roaming mode as indicated by the little R on the signal bars.
However for some reason the clock screen did not give me roaming options .
I fact the phone would not let me switch on the data networks!
Very frustrating

How to Disable Roaming Dual clock on LG G5 LG-F700S Android 5.1/6.0/7.0
(by lancejen on reddit)
There are tutorials on the web to teach people how to disable the roaming dual clock on G2/G3 by using the QuickShortcutMaker app or Dual Clock Remover app to uncheck the Use roaming dual-clock setting, however this particular method doesn't work on the LG-F500S model.
To remove the lockscreen roaming dual-clock on the LG-F700S, follow the following steps:
Download QuickShortcutMaker
Search under ACTIVITIES the keyword "KT"
Click open 'Roaming' and then click on 'Roaming KT Roaming Test'
Create shortcut and open the shortcut
Check 'RAD TEST'
Turn off WiFi while keeping Data on, check the mobile signal strength icon now appears with a letter 'R'
Go Settings - Date & Time
The originally grey-out 'Roaming dual clock' item now becomes black and clickable.
Click to Disable the roaming dual clock.
Uncheck 'RAD TEST'
Turn on the Airplane mode, then off again to remove the 'R' status.
Now the phone works like before with the lockscreen showing only one clock.
anybody know how to delete the double clock in lockscreen ?
No one has the phone, bro!
I have the Korean g6, and couldn't get rid of the dual clock so I installed an app "dual clock remover".

Nothing to worry about, double clock is only at Korean models, namely V300S, V300K, and V300L
Your device won't have double clock
I can also confirm that wolfgart's solution worked perfectly. Thanks!

Isn't this just a roaming clock? I.e. you'll get it whenever you're using the phone outside of the home country? I always thought the home country was based on your settings or sim card though, rather than hardware/rom/etc. Not sure if I'm mistaken or something is different with this phone/clock.
I used app dual clock remove in appstore and turn off left clock, you should trail

hi. can anyone made it on stock pie?
after updating to pie, it needs additional permission.
On the same boat as dchinacay, have a stock V300L updated to Pie. Dual clock remover says device is unsupported and quickshortcutmaker needs additional permission.

I can't find any "roaming" on Android 9 lg300k check image attached
On my Verizon S9+, in Settings/Clock and FaceWidgets I set Roaming Clock to on, and enabled all three FaceWidget options (Today's Schedule, Next Alarm, Music Controller).
My home time zone is ET (which is set correctly) and I am currently in CT so a second digital clock should appear on the AOD. It does not. This working for anybody?
As for Facewidgets, nothing shows on the AOD other than the clock and notification icons. Swiping does nothing. So do FaceWidgets work? And what does Face have to do with it?
The roaming clock only shows up when roaming on another network. Here in South Africa my service provider doesn't have coverage everywhere, so in the rural areas they have an agreement with another provider to roam on their network for coverage. The aod roaming clock shows up when I roam, then I sit with two clocks on the screen

I've been using the music facewidget. When music is playing it will show the song on AOD and I have to double tap it to bring up the facewidget. I kind of wish this extra step wasn't neccessary.
And I don't know why they called them facewidgets.

Thanks. Your post helped me determine that it takes a double tap on the AOD clock to display the FaceWidgets. Does not require music to be playing to activate. I enabled all three options and double tap will show me next alarm, upcoming appointments, and whatever media was last playing (music, YouTube, etc.).

Thanks. So "While Roaming" is literal (roaming on different network) as opposed to what would be way more useful - in a time zone different than home time zone. Fortunately, Chronus has a feature that will show local and home time zones on their clock widgets though does not work on AOD.
Isn't Connecticut (CT) in the Eastern Time Zone (ET)? Why would you expect a roaming clock when you're in the same timezone?
I haven't had my S9+ outside of my home timezone yet, but I'm pretty sure my S7 Edge displayed it based on timezone, not roaming carrier. I'd be real surprised if the S9 is different.

Sadly, I think it is working as designed. It does show another clock when you are ROAMing on a different network. I was just in Europe and dual clocks presented themselves in the countries I visited. In the States however, it's the same network despite being in different time zones, so only my local clock is displayed. Samsung should change this so that the time zone change is the trigger, not the network.
My workaround is to use Chronus clock widget on home screen which support local time and home time, based on time zones.

Thanks OP for the info. What a bummer.
Always on Display- Roaming Clock
I have been using Roaming clock- AOD mode almost from two years now and I was not travelling during this period but I had two different timezones on my screen. What I have discovered from using this is that, when the phone is on power mode, the AOD automatically gets disabled. So, if anyone wants AOD mode to be on, you have to disable the power mode.
Hi all,
Probably a daft question, but before I updated to EMUI 8, I had the home city set in the weather widget to be my home town - set using the GPS "current location" setting. Since the update and a factory reset, I can't work out how to set my current location, when at home, as my home city. And as the text based city search entry is slightly different to the GPS current location, it means I end up with the dual time/weather display when I'm at home.
Seems silly, but it's upsetting my OCD.
I had the same issue drove me mad, so i resolved it with the following click on the clock, click settings, world clock > Date and time, at the bottom is home city, in that setting exit the add city setting and select none, it then uses the weather location which should be your location and gets rid of the dual clocks ( well it worked for me)

Under date and time I only get the option to either use the same home city as the weather app, or add a city. There is the option in the weather app to set the home city as none, but I want the dual time/weather thing, but not when I'm at home. The app allows me to add the town, Forfar, but GPS shows up as Forfar & District.
So, no further forward at the moment.
