First of all i would like to thank all you chef's for the great menu you provide
Tastes are incredibly smooth and you use fresh ingredients all the time
What else could i ask?
On the second thought i can ask something
I have become irritating asking the same question in differnet roms
Maybe it is a problem in my touch pro
Why does my clock lose synchronisation?
One moment all ok and suddenly time stays stuck...
I repair it and all is good again
But suddenly this happens again
An one more thing
In some roms while i use gmt+2 athens it changes it by itself in [email protected]@#@ something i cannot remember
Thank you for the time you took reading it and for the time you take making these great roms
p.s
Maybe there are more with the same problem
If there are please state it to see that i am not alone in this cruel world
Me too
I am also facing the same issue nowadays. I am using RRE23016v3Manila ROM version. This is a new issue i got after flashing this.
wrong clock too
I have the same problem too with the clock..and all the appointments'time becoming error too..
This issue is solved in Manila 2.1. You can also fix it with this.
Ok with time zone
But i do not lose 1 hour
I lose 20 minutes for example
it is not a timezone problem
I saw this answered by deksels in another thread. Here is deksels answer:

Clock gets out of sync
Like others here, I face the same problem. At a certain moment I will loose sync of time. The amount the clock is off varies per event.
It is not a DST issue, but something else.
It seems that it occurs randomly, but mostly after an event (alarm or reminder) occured.
Any one any suggestion what is happening here?
Although it is claimed that the issue has been solved with Manila 2.1, it is still occurring sporadically. The only way to fix it is to set the clock right in Settings -> Clock & Alarms. Just do not touch the big clock in TF3D ;-)
Cheers...
and when i touch it when i talk on phone???
lol that's what i thought it was the problem
Wrong clock
i also experienced the same problem...it's not about timezone or manila.i use energy rom 3.0...it's so irritating when you realize you are late for something important as the clock stuck at certain time..maybe i should buy a watch someday

I'm having a similar issue and it's using 6.5 without Manila. The clock appears to stick and when I "tab" the power button to turn on the display, only then does it suddenly try to update the time on the display and it usually 1 - 2 minutes behind or forward on the Titantium/CHome Clock app than the "Top Bar" clock. This also causes issues when an alarm is set and goes off. Dismissing the alarm will sometimes cause the time to suddenly reverse one minute so the next minute, the alarm sounds again. This morning, it looped 3 times!
Been using the clocksync app from market. Using it to auto correct the time drift issue I keep experiencing.
Every time you hit the windows button and open that menu bar, the clock is fine. As soon as you close it your clock stops 'ticking' until the menu is closed usually causing up to 3 seconds of time drift, over the course of a day my time usually half an hour out at least.
Download the app and try opening and closing the menu and test it for yourself
Why does this happen? I'm happy using this app to resync time every few hours if I have to, just reporting this bug like a good tester xD
Edit: I can confirm that most interaction with the ui pauses the clock. For example, closing a menu or sliding down the notification bar.

this was already known if you read the frx04 thread then you would know that everyone suggests you use clocksync because the clock is still bugged..

Actually, this is the first time I've seen someone suggest that they've found a concrete way of reproducing the problem.
However, this is certainly not the only source of clock drift, since I get clock drift when my phone is just sitting there doing nothing. Nonetheless, the fact that it's reproducible will hopefully be helpful to some dev in running down the problem.
the clock is always off, when its sleeping or idle even when you are using it the clock is ALWAYS off a couple ms and those ms increase every second. so bassicly after 15min in life the clock on your phone thinks it have only been 14 mins.
Use clock sync people! its free downloadable from the market and you can set it to auto set time every 30min, 1 hour, 2 hours etc. i prefer every 1 hour as that is very accurate
i did not read it good sorry*

I can confirm that menu open/close actions do cause clock drift. Not sure why ryannathan's menu takes so long to close. In my case, my menu closes a lot faster and the system clock loses only a few hundredths of a second each time (not a fixed amount, it is variable).
It's especially obvious when you are within ClockSync as the "offset" number increases in magnitude rapidly when you hit the menu button over and over again to repeatedly open/close it.
Edit: Looks like it doesn't help that we don't seem to have access to an RTC. I was curious to see how well the hardware clock was keeping in sync as compared to our system clock, but hwclock can't find an RTC to access.
Is there currently anyone working on this issue?

i guess not, as most important things are worked on now like battery life, wake up, sleep and a stable running system.

I think it's unreasonable to expect work to "kick off" in less than a day. It is probably bumped up in priority thanks to a reproducible scenario, however, it's a pretty deep-down bug so the people most likely to have the skills to work it are the ones working on power management right now.
(e.g. I have barely any clue where to even start with something like this, so I'll be sticking with my GPS work for now.)
Updated first post to include information about most interections with ui. Check the edit.
Can someone confirm this?
Has anyone else been having problems with the stock alarm clock on the Galaxy S4? Mine seems to be unreliable. Goes off one morning, but not the next. But is random when it works and doesn't.
Current settings:
Android: 4.2.2
Carrier: Verizon
Time: 7am
Days: MTWTF
Repeat Weekly: Checked
Alarm type: Vibration and Melody
Alarm tone: Journey
Sound: Maxed
Location alarm: off
Snooze: off
Smart alarm: off
In "menu" outside that section I have "voice control" off.
Not rooted, no other ROM. Just default, stock Verizon Galaxy S4.
Before I go to bed I double check to make sure my alarm is on and sound is at the max (not in vibration or silent mode). Power saving mode is "off". I have no task killers. I do close all my apps using the default android task manager. But then I turn the alarm clock back on because I'm paranoid. But none of this seems to help.
I've tried factory reset, that didn't seem to help as it still sometimes goes off and sometimes doesn't. I have not tried any other alarms than the stock one. I will be trying one (any suggestions?) and updating this to let you know if it worked. But until then, it would be cool to see if I'm not the only one having this issue and to see if anyone else has solved this!
Thanks!

I use the alarm every day as well, and have not had a problem with it not going off. Are you using one of the stock alarm tones, or a custom song/sound? I have used both without issues, but if you're using something other than a stock tone, maybe try one of those to see if it's an issue with your audio file.
Edit: I see that it's called "Journey" so that may be a stock tone. I guess I'm not sure then

Correct, the alarm tone I'm using is a stock tone. It's woken me up before, so I don't think I'm sleeping through it haha. My only guess is my phone is somehow going into a low power state that's not updating the time every minute, therefore the alarm time is sometimes getting skipped and therefore not getting triggered. I just don't know what would be causing this as I have "power saving mode" off and I haven't ran into any other settings that would do this... I do plug my phone in overnight too, so you'd think it would be going full force anyway. But I just recently switched from iOS so I'm still a bit new to the android side of things .

Have you tried running some daytime tests to see if it rings on time? The clock on the lockscreen may only update when the screen is on, but the phone always knows what time it is. If you can get it to skip alarms reliably, maybe take it to a Verizon store and have them swap it out. I've used my cell phone as an alarm for quite a few years (I have a backup as well, but only because I'm pretty good at shutting alarms off in my sleep) and the only times I had trouble was with older phones when I was rooted and running a less-than-stable custom roms.

I did run various tests throughout the day yesterday, have a few set for today too. All went off fine so far. The stock alarm woke me up this morning too. Maybe I just had to break it in haha. I'm worried it will skip again, though, so I'm using my desktop as a backup alarm clock, lol. If it does skip I will more than likely take it to Verizon, as this doesn't seem normal. Haven't tried any non-stock alarm clock apps yet. Guess I should look for a good backup app just in case eh.
No problems here. Use everyday on Stock ROM

I ended up switching to an app called "Timely". I have had zero issues with myself ever not hearing this app or it not going off. Even if the phone is on vibrate or silent.

yes it's really unreliable not only in your 4.2 s4. it often doesnt go off on my s3 mini too. just download another one.
I was just gonna say I've never had a problem with the stock alarm...and what do you know, this morning it didn't go off. I always wake up no matter how loud or quiet the alarm is so I'm fairly certain I didn't sleep through it.

All,
My S4 non-rooted stock Mk2 has recently started playing the notification sound and vibration without there being an actual notification in the bar. No New e-mails or texts are coming in when this happens and nothing new in the apps being updated.
How can I track it down? It appears at random times not on any discernible pattern.
I'm pulling my hair out looking for what is causing this. Has anyone else seen this kind of behavior? Is it app related? If so what app?
I have Facebook notifications turned off, and I've not installed any new apps around the time this behavior began.

I've never experienced that myself, but I'd probably start by assigning different apps to different notification colours. (assuming the issue also causes the notification light to turn on)
I think TouchWiz roms don't have that option, but an app or xposed module may be able to do it like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koo.lightmanager
Depending on how many apps you have, you could start by e.g. assigning half to red and half to green. Then when it happens you'll know which half contains the app causing it. Then you can split that half in half again, etc...

Hi! : )
I have issues with stock alarm clock on CM. It's something that need to be completely reliable, or it's useless.
Sometimes it works well, sometimes don't.
After some hours with the phone on standy (when I'm sleeping), when the alarm sets off it turn the screen on, play 1 sec. of the chosen sound, and it automaticly turns off by itself.
Some time ago I found that if I set the vibration on it worked, but now it's not working anymore, at least it's not working all the times.
One other thing I did was setting clock apps not to be battery optimizes. Don't know exactly if it helped much.
I'm on official CM14.1 build (12/11) with no custom kernel, and today the alarm failed again.
Can someone help, please? Does anyone have the same issues? Maybe it has to do with deep sleep.
I don't want to use non stock apps, I've tried them but then the alarm volume had to be set by de media volume, and I don't want to rely on that setting, I want the alarm volume to be the alarm volume.
Thanks! : )
using RR 5.7.4. based on MM with Radon 3.1 Kernel and never expirienced such a problem. maybe you want to give it a try? since a few weeks im using the sony alarm clock which you can find here on xda, design wise its better in my opinion.
Thanks! I prefer to stick with stock app, I don't mind the design and I don't deslike it either. Really like to get it to work perfectly, so I can rely on it.
I'm using greenify, but I guess it's not affecting it - it never did on other phones and roms.
This app fixed my issue. No more missed alarms. : )
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alarmclock.xtreme.free&hl=pt
Well ... You don't want to use any other app but then issue is solved with another app ? so I still recommend the Sony alarm clock, no stupid inapp purchases and adverts...
I didn't wanted to used external apps, but I was forced to, since I could not fix my issue any other way. I could try the app you suggest, can you give me a link, please? Thanks for your reply and help. : )
same issue on CM here. seems that if you put the alarm on 'every day' it does usually work fine. Still not very usefull though
