[Q] World clock problem - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Running a stock, but rooted SGS3 here in UK, not carrier specific. Was having a problem under ICS where tapping the clock and going into the clock app and then into world clock only works with the city list by name. If I try to select the globe view then I just get a black screen and a second or two later, kicked back to the clock app main screen.
Updated to JB via Kies hoping it'd fix the problem but no joy.
I have No Bloated a few bits out, probably took out something too much... Any one have any ideas or links to the clock APK that might help me?
Thanks
Adam.

Thanks for the help everyone. I got it fixed myself by going in to Settings -> apps and cleaning out the cache for the system application 'clock'.
Just in case anyone else is having the same problem.

[Q] mystery icon

Hi
I've a new Atrix 4G and it's great, etc.
Still on stock gingerbread 2.3.4.
There's a small icon on the top left, very simple looking - just a transparent square with a tick in the middle between the battery icon and the time.
What is it?
I've googled and searched here but it's hard to filter the results. I can't give you a screenshot because I'm a noob.
cheers

I believe what you are talking about is the alarm icon.

If you don't see it there, it's most likely from an app you have installed. As was said, most likely alarm. Turn off alarms and see if that gets rid of it.

Contact Accuweather .

Loooooool thats GREAT help cba for that going to root this soon put checkrom on here maybe it will work then :s
I use a custom ICS Rom and Accuweather is full of bugs. Incompatible with ICS and I hope for a some update soon.
Simple to follow instructions are all you need .
neither root nor check rom will change it
but hey you dont want to contact the developer for a possible fix your choice
jje
just look out the window and see what the weather is like why need accuweather for..
Or just get a different weather widget from the market. Or just contact the developer like JJE said. Not that hard enough is it
You need to update it ( via samsung apps on your phone). Same issue disappeared after updating.

do you use an app killer? that was the problem which i had... ;-)

[Q] Screen Stuttering

I was on the stock rooted rom for the last 3.16 RUU and I started having a screen stuttering appear when I change homescreens and when I'm in the app drawer the icons appear to move and the text appears to be a split second behind it and then they snap into place. I re-flashed the phone with one of the stock rooted roms based off of the latest OTA. I also updated the firmware and I'm S-OFF via DirtyRacun.
EDIT: Actually, it looks like it's having trouble refreshing or drawing the icons in the app drawer as they are fuzzy (like lines missing in the icons or a monitor refreshing) for a second and then come into focus.
First, does anyone have any idea why I would have this issue? If I reboot it goes away and works perfect, but after a little bit, it comes back. I checked the RAM and CPU and they seem fine with plenty of room left.
Second, could anyone recommend a solid ROM that is pretty much stock? I don't mind a few tweaks and such, I just want something really solid. Any good recommendations would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
Can anyone help me out with some advice? Any ideas of what could be causing this or a ROM I should try to see if it fixes the problem?

I had the same issue. I checked force gpu rendering in developer options and it went away.

[Q] Help: Stock lock screen clock post 4.3 update

So they changed the clock from the original S3 to the one from the S4.
only problem is I like the older one better, does anyone know how to change it back? I've been messing with the settings for a while and can't seem to figure it out, thanks in advance.

Is yours centered? Mine is on the left and it's annoying the crap out of me.

HELP: Blue input circle on screen.

Dear user thanks a lot for checking this out and trying to help. I have a sony xperia T and have just upgraded my rom to cynogen mod 11, the only problem is as soon as I went to set it up (which I did manage to complete) I had a blue/white tint circle on my screen. I can move the circle but it is hard to use for example I have to have it on a certain area to click the thing I want to click.
Please, please, please can someone help.

Sorry for bumping this so early, but I can't find any answers anywhere!
The circle looks like the asus transformer circle and I am really pissed because of this because I've been trying to download a custom rom on my phone for ages and I keep getting problem after problem after problem.. If someone could help I would be extremely grateful.
