Clock stucks! - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi!!
As experienced by other users with other devices, my clock randomly stucks, both statusbar and widget clocks.
I must force reapplying the time from preferences to fix (the device "knows" the right hour).
Must say it's annoing and can be dangerous looking at the wrong hour...
I have lasan mod on SK17i stock rooted.
Thanks.

happens in all the ROM's except the AWESOME cm9.0 by FXP..... doesnt happen in it.... although i had to sacrifice the awesome GALLERY app in real ics and nero.... and the walkman app too..... but will find a way soon.....
if just anyone gives me the link to all these apps could find a solution.....
VOILA

It happen the same thing for me, status clock is freeze sometime, i just rotate it to landscape mode and it refreshes... The widget clock is working fine for me, only the status bar clock.

Had created a similar thread about this.
I am using stock ICS with modifications.
Set the time to automatic and had not experieced issue again so far.

Flipping clock for Wildfire

FLIPPING CLOCK FOR WILDFIRE -- Taken from SFM 1.1--
This is a bug free Sense clock (Flipclock) for the wildfire taken from the SFM 1.1 ROM.The clock behaves as the normal HTC clock(Tapping either takes you to Desk clock app or weather app) but has added FLIPPING animation .I have used it for a few hours and havent noticed any bugs.All credits to evilisto and someone else's zip file( i didn't know how to sign or whatever them).Brickbats are for me.
To be performed at your own risk.
This requires a rooted wildfire with recovery(i used CWM 2.5.0.7) and any SENSE rom
(I havent tried it on any other rom)
Please follow the instruction or u MAY have a TINY problem.
1.Make a nandroid backup
2.The previous HTC sense flipclock (only the big(4x2) thing with white squares on which Time is diplayed in black) widget should be somewhere on ur homescreens and preferably there should be an empty row beneath it.(U'll later learn y)
3.Put attached Sense21clock.zip onto sdcard root
4.Reboot into recovery and use " Install zip from sdcard" and select the file and confirm.Reboot Device.
5. Voila.U are done.Enjoy The SENSuous flipping animation when u unlock the phone and when u patiently wait for each minute to pass.
This has a problem though. U can no longer see the clock in ur widgets list.But since u already have it, that shouldn't be a problem) .Also the empty row of icons was required because the clock becomes 4x3 now, But it displays date, day, time, weather and location.
if u ever want to revert back the clock u will have to reflash the older OLDSenseclock.zip
Tested on DK Froyo 4.5.1 . Animation may be a bit jittery at stock speeds(528 Mhz)(esp after unlocking device) or that may be just me.Excuse the SMS language inputs.
For those with strange weather animations
(i mean like those in post number 7's attachments)
solved by patrask-Freeze HtcWeatherWallpaper.apk with Titanium Backup or
0.Make nandroid backup
1.Ensure u have a file HtcWeatherWallpaper.apk in ur system\apps directory (Use root explorer or something)
2.Remove HtcWeatherWallpaper.apk by following instructions from this link
http://iamandroid.com/profiles/blogs/guide-android-how-to-easily
3.Reboot.It might take a while to reboot so take a coffee break.
This will not work on non-sense based ROMS.

tested it and yes you are right that there's a bit of excess lines at the center of each number when you've restored it from the locked screen. There's a similar one that I've been using which was taken from desireHD and ported it over the WF.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960189
The problem with it is that the weather is cropped beneath the City and the Date but you can remove it and place it again as a widget.
Thanks anyway.
@rrbhootham
thanks very much! Its great
Could you try to port the sfm 1.1 lockscreen(sense 3.0) for our sense roms? Just flashing the htclockscreen.apk doesnt work...

That weather thing is why i didn't prefer that clock.It looked a bit unpolished.
Nice clock. It works pretty good, but there is a problem with the weather animation (see the pictures below). It seems that the weather graphics are missing. Is there anyway to embed them, or at least a way to disable the weather animation?

Did u change any opengl files of ur phone?Any live wallpaper fixes?That could be one of the reasons.And by the way weather animations are not supposed to work on the wildfire(AFAIK without any 3rd party stuff).What rom are u using?What weather is that bug for?

Hi rrbhootham,
I'have JockerDroid 4.2 and I installed the WildPuzzle Original Framework in order to restore the original framework since I didn't like some customizations made by the JockerDroid ROM.
Most probablly the wheater animation problem is caused by that patch. I'll try reflasching the ROM to check if the problem persist.
Anyway it would be interesting if someone else is having the weather animation working properly.
Please, check the video in the attachement for another demonstration of the weather error.
Marshall
Im also having weather animation problems, if someone had figured out a way how to fix it, please respond as soon as possible
Thanks in advance...

Hello Marshall,
I was googling around and i found this http://androidforums.com/eris-all-t...g-weather-animation-issues-w-latest-leak.html . The thread says this might be due to any graphics fixes. If u check JokerDroid 4.2's changelog there are graphics fixes mentioned, and that might be for the transparency of the menus and stuff and i believe this messes the transparency of the older weather animations.it might not have anything to do with the framework pack. i'll keep looking into this.

Thanks rrbhootham. I hope you'll get through this...
EDIT:
I found this thread http://geekfor.me/hero/fixes/rosie-lwp-fix-opengl/ where they're talking about OpenGL fix which is used to enable Livewallpapers but introduces the weather animation bug.
In the thread there is also a patch to revert back to the old OpenGL but I'm not sure if it will work for our Wildfire since it is for the Eris.
As soon as I can I'll try that patch (after a nandroid backup, of course) too see if it works...

Hello Marshall,
That might break ur JokerDroid Rom so i recommend u remove HtcWeatherWallpaper.apk from ur phone's system\app directory with adb.U can follow this link for details http://iamandroid.com/profiles/blogs/guide-android-how-to-easily . After that weather animation will no longer work(properly or improperly).
I freezed it with titanium backup, worked well.

Freezed it too and now the weather animation has gone. Thanks 1K!
Anyway it would be nice to fix the animation so we can have this feature too. Do you think it would be possible, rrbhootham?

I have questions.
Did you add an 0 before the 1 digit hours? like 9:07 -> 09:07 or 3:15 -> 03:15
Sometimes I come across a Clock bug on stock Froyo. The date and weather info is on the lower right of the widget by default but sometimes it comes to lower center. Did something like this happened?
Another bug with original Clock is when you remove the widget sometimes the transparent base stays on the home. Did this happened too?
That's all. Thx in advance.

I faced this weird problem many times since I flashed the ICS
the time just freez
did anyone had the same problem??
I have LWW stock rom with some of lasan mods and krsh kernel
Did you remove bloatware ?
I once deleted clock apk, or something related to it... caused my clock to freeze and not to load on restart

What actually freezes, clock widget or clock in status bar (upper right corner) ?
If widget freezes, try to remove it and add it again. Also, try clearing cache for that apk.
the widget and the clock in status bar
both of them at the same moment
I removed the widget but today I had the same problem
have you tried to deactivate the "automatic date&time" settings? and tried to set the date & time manually? because i have kinda problem with the time from network-provided time..

Yes, You can change the background image but... you should be using an NXT lockscreen instead of using that Ring lockscreen... in case you want to use the NXT lockscreen with settings.apk from the file given here... flash this in cwm and you get settings.apk in which there is an option for lockscreen there you can change the WALLPAPER AS YOU LIKE​
Click Thanks If you Think I Helped you OUT.... :highfive: :angel: :fingers-crossed:
thanks for your help, i flashed your zip with cmw there's just one problem. The menu has changed and I've got the lock screen options but with that the menue from the ultimate hd mod and rom is gone. Besides that the new lockscreen does not apply.
Is there a way to combine your lockscreen with my rom?
so far i managed to join the nxt lock screen settings with my already modded setting.apk with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28950918&postcount=214
the problem is that when trying to install the nxt lockscreen from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1772120
it results in a boot loop.
when i combine my modded settings.apk with your file aneel, the phone boots fine but theres no new lockscreen...
(and in the settings apk the icon of the new menu ist not exactly where its supossed to be, it is a few pixels on the left side compared to the other ones, but thats just a minor beauty bug)
any new ideas?

thanks for your effort.
The settings menu is as described but missing only the lockscreen settings
Edit: And the apps menu is a bit messed up
I know that pushing is inpolite, but i still havent gotten it to work
i'd post in the corresponding thread for my rom, but there's this 10 post limit so i can't.

[MOd][Xposed]Xdual Statusclock

Now with "working" Lollipop!!!
This mode shows a second clock of a chosen timezone in your status bar. So if you are far from home or always need to know the hour on the other side of the world, you can use this mod. I made this being on an exchange semester and wanting to easily see the time at home.
It only has very basic functionality but I wanted to share it anyways. I am thinking about adding more features like custom layout for the clock, custom offset....
Currently I do not have much spare time to work an the mod but I will try my best to keep up. So if you find any bugs or glitches, please let me know.
Screenshot
See attachement
Download and install
Of course you need to have installed the XPosed framework to have this mod working. You can find the mod in the Xposed Repo or attached to this post.
Changelog:
26.July 2015 - Added support for Lollipop 5.0
26.Nov 2013 - Added support for 12-hour format
24.Nov 2013 - Added manual DST support and choosable divider between the clocks
21.Nov 2013 - Initial release

@Jukka666
what about adding a countdown or rather time left to the next Alarm ? Would that be possible?
If not using the Android alarm clock which would be the best as far as Wake Locks go. Maybe something custom?
Adding really some timers (maybe how much work left)
I have bought 3 or 4 Alarm clocks and none has that functionality. Only in Notification Panel.
Having this in the Status Bar right next to the clock would be AWESOME.
(Stopwatch is maybe farfetched, and timer maybe not needed) I hope you understand what I mean.
Something like
oCurrent time is 14:14
Next Alarm is at 20:00
In status bar would be 14:14/>06:46
Maybe some icon showing the Alarm etc . Or maybe really just something simple and static. 14:14/20:00
These are just a suggestions NOT REQUEST's. (Sorry for the caps, but many wannabe Moderators/Recognized..."some nasty" words, are allergic to any suggestion and start crying about some new idea)
Thanks for the mod !
Awesome:good:

That is an interesting idea, worth thinking about.
What comes up my mind: Just plain text counting down to your next calendar event (or your custom set time of the day when you finish work) in form of "current time"|"time left" 12:08|00:52. I am not really into building Android apps, thats the first step I took, so im only guessing that this could use a serious amount of system power, since the status bar is refreshed quiet often... but when I find some time, I will look into it.

That's already more that I hoped for . Thanks even for considering.
Maybe the static time to the next event, not a countdown or timer. Just that you can set a static time. Or it will display as you said the time of the next Alarm/Event. Really doesn't have to be a countdown.
Thinking that might be less of a strain for PC and maybe you. As said just suggestions . Maybe this even exists somewhere.
But seriously I would love more to see the time of my next alarm more as the stupid Alarm Clock Icon .
Again thanks and I do not mind if this leads nowhere, if it does even better.
Yes please add center clock and date like in slim based Roms and make it modified for all kitkat based roms please

For center clock, you should try XBlast tools, as I am not doing an all-in-one module.
I will look into the date-thing, this could be easy to implement. Also the mod should work on kitkat if you got your xposed working.

Updated to 1.1. Update should be awailable in the xposed installer.
If you check the DST option, the second clock will show an hour later. Thats if the other place you want to show uses Daylight Saving Time.
Also you can now choose different seperation symbols between the two clocks.

Does it change nothing in the status bar or does the app with the settings not work? Did you reboot? Module activated in XPosed?
Are you running a stock Samsung Rom? Maybe they use a different method then AOSP, so my hook wont work.
Can you add an option to enable/disable 24 hour mode of the clock (for home clock) ?

I guess it does not work becouse of touchwiz... I am sorry, but currently I don´t have the time to add support for a different Rom type. Maybe you can ask here if he can add this function. It is not to much effort and if he needs, I can provide him with my code.
Again sorry!
Hi, thanks for your fast response !
Maybe option to enable small/capital am/pm AM/PM, or show none (am/pm) at all, just the clock (eg. 7:00)
What do you think?
Thanks in advance! Would glad to test out your new build asap
it looks nice with Wanam Xposed center clock. but here I use 24 hour because currently xdual clock is only in 24 hour, hence my request

Next alarm not showing on clock widgets

Hi!
I've checked it on the web and this seems to be a common and old MIUI bug. Can anyone know how to fix this?
Even with Google Clock instead of Xiaomi Clock widgets wont show the correct next alarm time. It helps a bit don't the problem remains.
I've tried different widgets but the problem remained.
Thanks! : )

iirc chronus (thats what i use as clock widget) said something about miui not implementing the clock properly and thats why. after switching to lineage os everything works as intended!
link to a thread on the xiaomi forums explaining the issue: http://en.miui.com/thread-430400-1-1.html (and this has been "under discussion" since 2016 so dont expect a fix from them anytime soon)
I read something somewhere, at the time, the it also has something to do with MIUI Calendar, if I remember well. I guess it become a bit better after I disabled that system app - with "App Freezer", you can try it if you have root, no need to unistall anything and easy to go back, great for debloat the phone.
