[Q] Timezone wrong - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Anyone else's time an hour off? I'm in EST and it automatically sets to central timezone unless I manually set it myself. I've rebooted numerous times. My wife's RAZR MAXX shows the correct time.
I'm unrooted and no launcher if that helps.
A note to you from my Note 2.

I live roughly 5 miles from the EST/CST line and the only time I ever have that problem is with the stock clock/weather widget. Im in EST and whwn I use that widget it isnt. However stat bar time is always right. Switched clock widgets and no problem since.

Lines going through widgets

Do anyone have a problem with lines going through widgets
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
I had it too one time but reboot fixed everything, haven't had the lines since.
Ive had the lines, rebooted and everything was fine. They came back again 2 days later, rebooted again, havent seen em since.
+1
Once, rebooted, never since.
It will occasionally come back. Seems to be related to using 3d then switching.
i'd expect we'll see a fix from HTC soon enough.
Happened to me once, and rebooting did nothing. I had to remove every widget from my home screens and put them back on to fix it.
Had the same problem started last night with just one widget. By today it was two. I had tried rebooting, but didn't seem to fix the problem. Removed the two widgets and immediately put the back. 3+ hours and so far so good.
We'll see. Hopefully this isn't going to be an ongoing thing.
Out of curiosity, do you have widgets from the HTC hub installed? I noticed my "word of the day" widget isn't properly sized when I fling the carousel, but it resizes itself when I go to it. I'm thinking it might be a resolution glitch because they haven't optimized certain widgets for the 960x540 screen? Just a thought.

The two widgets I was seeing the problem on was the "Post" widget for TweekDeck and my Astrid Task widget. I've installed a couple of widgets from the HTC hub, playing around, but I don't have any of them active on the screen.
Let me tell you people...I had them bad, almost returned this thing because of it but in the back of my head I knew it was a software issue that would be fixed (either by HTC or an XDA developer.) I would get them, I would remove and replace the widget and they would eventually come back in a day or two.
Until, I temp rooted, hulu and overclocked, then I did a Zone skin, boom, problem solved! Don't ask me how, but ran for a week and no widget lines...actually lost ROOT today due to a dead battery, fired the phone up and there they were again!! ReRooted and they were gone, so my suspicions are that the HTC skins are the culprit because mine first started when I setup that blue-green HTC skin. Hope that helps.
Actually surprised this hasnt been discussed more, I noticed just a few people talked about it but no real solution.
I have the same problem on my widgets I made with desktop Visualizer. I usually just switch the theme and then switch it back. Always helps. Unfortunately I don't know how to prevent it from happening again.

I get this problem every so often. I go into setting menu then go back home and it goes away, but it always comes back, very annoying.

[Q] HTC clock app, desk clock

The old HTC clock would turn to a nice desk clock with just a dim digital time when in landscape. The LTE's clock ha the time displayed like it is in settings in a bright white and highlighted bar. TERRIBLE for use as a nighttime bedside clock!!!
anyone have the old sense 3 version of the clock??? i couldn't find any clocks in the HTC hub thing.
---
the flashlight is in the HTC hub though, for anyone looking
---
so, are there settings somewhere to change the clock's appearance?? this clock sucks. it just looks like settings, it locks out standard, just no reason for it at all.
I do know that the clock will change when you apply a skin

I was looking for the Desk Clock too!
And by what he meant by the skin, when you change your scene, the Big Digital Clock widget's skin changes also
Count me as another person who very much misses the night mode clock. I downloaded "night clock" from the market as a temp solution, but I really would like the old HTC clock back.
I'm also looking for a way to dim the capacitive button backlights when the phone is on the charger.
You should check out Alarm Clock by double twist. It's only a buck right now. It's really nice.
Alarm by Double Twist
doubletwist alarm clock - its ok... but still not desk clock.
someone got the flashlight from sense 3, not the hub, can't anyone with a #D extract the clock apk? i didn't know it would be so hard to find
I'd be interested in this too, and also how you get it installed. I've been searching for a way to install the HTC Note app from the International One X with no luck. I found the apk files, and tried a couple of the obvious methods of installing, but no luck.
i'm screwed, the update gave me 1.5 on the 3d, so i can't back up anything without wiping everything i'm trying to back up, and i can't get into folders to play with extracting any apps either. have to beg someone out there to do this for me!!
I really miss this feature as well. I used it every night after I set my alarm. I've been using the doubletwist alarm clock application for the past few weeks and like it but I still miss the old desk clock mode in the stock app. Hopefully HTC will bring it back in a future update. Seems like an odd omission.
I too noticed that, and is the only thing ticking me off right now about this phone.
I used it every night. You put it in night mode, and it would dim even further.
Best when you wake up half asleep wondering what time it is. Easy on the eyes.
This would be huge if someone can make it work on this phone.
Same story here.... Also I would like a desktop clock that is easy on battery and doesn't shut down the display... Any thought on using any widget combined with widget locker or something like that to create something similar?

Doubletwist alarm clock has a "keep screen on" option in settings. Though I've never tried it, that plus one of it's clock displays (the screen dims when you switch to the clock view) might do the trick.
I found that drains battery unreasonably compared to either shut off or the old HTC desk clock option. I've tried everything I could find to replicate the old sense 3 clock. apps just somehow use at least double the battery

Time not updating correctly

Has anybody else seen this in your note 2? The time in the notification bar does not update at all for me when I have the phone unlocked and using it. It only updates to the correct time once I lock and unlock the phone again. It also updates if I toggle the 24 hour time view in the settings.
Oh and the constant WIFI reminder along with the E911 icon within the notification bar is highly annoying. I can't wait until the root is out so I can get rid of those things.
Mine time is updating correctly.

Try resetting the phone to factory defaults. I had to do that on my droid x when I first got it and it fixed a few odd problems.
Download a launcher with full screen mode.

[Q] Stock clock widget not working i9300

The stock clock widget don't update when i lock the screen ( not using the phone ). For example when i wake up in the morning the home screen clock widget shows the time it's stil night, or the last time i was connected to internet.
Doesn't it show the phone's time? Do i have to be online ?
I might have messed with some settings to save battery but i've tried everything. I don't want to fill the phone with all sorts of apps and widgets right now because is less that 10 days since i bought it so i prefer the stock widget.
Anyone has any ideas how to make it work properly?
Phone is the i9300 with android 4.1.1
Hi try this.

Nexus 9 Lock Screen

Noticed on my Nexus 9 Lock Screen has the large digital clock at the top of the screen and underneath has a small line of town, temp., and time. Problem is the two times are not the same. Anyway to change any of the items
The town, weather one is the time it last updated the information. Unless it constantly syncs, which you don't want to do because of battery usage, it'll always be different

Thanks for the info. .
