The stock android clock on top right of my screen wont update! Say i turn phone on at 1:20, it wont update to 1:21 or ever change unless i reboot then it will have the correct time for that ONE minute. I haven't recently installed or changed anything like apps or anything. BUT the clock on my lockscreen(widgetlocker) updates and works fine and is accurate. I went in date and time settings and its set to automatic, in the greyed out "set time" it shows a correct updated time, however this time isn't being shown up on the top right of my phone. I tried putting it in "manual" mode instead of the automatic mode and it still wont update..Ive reboot and pulled the battery several times to no avail. Im runnning stock rom and kernel, just rooted. As i said before i havent touched any new apps or settings in several days. This is really annoying as i cant tell what time it is while on and using my phone without going to the lockscreen and it just now began happening. Anyone have a fix or also have this issue??
I'm having the same problem today with my HTC Inspire 4g. Like you I have done nothing to my apps and its getting annoying. My phone has Cyanogenmod 7 flashed onto it.
i had same issue . made a phone call to make the phone get the auto time change then rebooted for good measure
Wow, mine was related to the time change, apparently! As soon as it reached 2am where i am it started working fine again!!(Time change was at 2am here)
Hello,
My camera suddenly stopped working :[
I have cm11, and when I try to launch the app, it says "can't connect to the camera".
I tried rebooting, tried to factory restore, tried different apps, still nothing :|
Is there way to check that the camera is connected? maybe for some reason it disconnected
from the motherboard?
Flash stock firmware and factory reset, if still the same then reconnect/replace the camera module. I replaced mine recently, it took me 10 minutes and cost £5.
So after everything else didn't work,
decided to take apart the phone.
Turned out that the camera was disconnected as I thought,
Have no Idea how that happened, the phone did fall few days ago,
not that hard though...
Anyway works now, just the resolution settings for the back cam are the same
as for the front one... max resolution is 1.9mp :\
Will try to flash again...
Hey guys,
So I have this problem where my system crashes without me doing anything (just looking at an app, etc). For a second then, I see my home wallpaper, then the display goes off. If I press the home/power button it laggs like hell and tries to show the lockscreen (slowly building the interface up). I cant swipe to unlock because the lockscreen timer passes before the homescreen is even correctly displayed and can respond to my input.
If I do a hard reset, it's the same thing all over again after I entered my sim code. Except when I manage to turn on flight mode, then the lagging stops almost immediately any I can log in.
The crashes also happen when I turn lockscreen off. It then also shows my home wallpaper for a second and then returns to what I was doing (lag and stuttering included).
I tried to install antivir software and did a scan, nothing found. I looked in the process statistics in the developer settings and the first entry was com.android.keyguard.keyguardwallpaper eating 80% of my cpu usage.
How can I even get to know what happens during this crashes? I had the idea of using the adb shell on my desktop to view live process statistics or some crash log files, but didn't tried that yet.
I hope you can offer me some tips or help with this
Thank you!
Did you try using Odin to restore the stock firmware? It is not the easiest tool to use, but it fixes most problems that arise.
Did you find out what did this? I got the exact same problem as you describe.
The only difference is that I got the normal galaxy s6 and not the edge.
I still got stock ROM and even did return my phone to factory settings, but it keeps happening.
The same things happens to me. GS6 flat. I sent it to the assistance. It comes back and works fine for some days, now it has the same problem again.
I tried also to restore to the factory firmware using odin and doing an hard reset before the flashing process and another one after but the problem is still here. Do you think it's an hardware's problem or a software's one?
I haven't got a clue.
I was hoping it had something to do with the software, but since it happens on other ROM's I'm starting to lean more to hardware.
I've also seen several posts around the web when searching google what I could do about it and found a lot about the SGS6 acting sluggish, and that's also how I found this post. And OP describes exactly what happens to my phone + the sluggishness.
I'm going to the shop where I bought it later this week and hear what they got to say, and if there is anything they can do.
I'm starting to remove a cuple of unuseable apps. After the 5.1.1's update I noticed that timely doesn't work. I tried to install redbull alert but it doesn't work. With these apps sometimes the alarm-clock rings with some minutes of delay, sometimes instead doesn't ring. I'm thinking (I home) there is some problem with samsung's clock. Do you have some kind of alternative alarm clock installed?
At first I had, but after the Factory reset I did not install all the apps I use like before, but only the most essential ones.
The alarm I used when I first got the phone was Gentle Alarm, the alarm worked fine on that one.
At least I haven't noticed if it at any time it did not.
At first I thought it was an app I got called Huepro since the crapware that was on the SGS6 told me that it made errors, but I emailed with the dev of that app, and he couldn't tell me what the error was, and the description is pretty vague to say the least.

}
At first I uninstalled it, and only controlled my light from the PC or my tablet, but since the SGS6 still was sluggish and unresponsive and did the "reboot to lock screen", after I did the factory reset I reinstalled the app Huepro, and it haven't made any errors since according to "smart manager" or whatever it's called, and the app haven't got an update since the first time.
You are right. It worked fine until 10 minutes ago, then it crashed again. I didn't touch the phone. It crashed by itself from the standby.
The assistance can do anything. I tried that way but as I write some posts ago the s6 worked fine for some weeks then it started again to crash. The paper I received with the phone tells that all tests are passed and the hardware is ok.
Do you know if there is a way to obtain a replacement on warranty by samsung?
Try without a sim or with another sim, might help.
I had quite a few issues with faulty sim cards in the past that made no sense: internet connection dropping at random intervals but only in certain areas, phones acting sluggish, sudden battery drains...
This morning I wiped the cache partition. Until now the phone is working fine... For the SIM I'm changing the mobile operator 'cause I thought that the issue maybe the SIM card. Today the portability shoud be complete but, right now I'm still on the old operator. Maybe there's some problemi with the portability. I written ti the Vodafone support on twitter and I'm waiting for the reply but I think the portability will be complete in some days.
Someone was lucky with the assistance?
Still happening here, not as often though after the last update.
So my guess is that it's something that they're working on. (Or I'm just lucky for once).
Me too but today, for example, is a bad day! The S6 worked fine until Android 5.0.4 (included). I guess too is a software problem but I'm starting to think it's some hardware issue. Battery for example or memory or motherboard.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There is no such thing as android 5.0.4; it is supposed to go straight from 5.0.2 to 5.1
Yes, maybe it was 5.0.2, I don't remember but I'm talking about the last build before 5.1. It works very well.
Right now I got 5.1.1 and this update have "only" crashed once since I got it, not like the last one where it happened quite often.
I'm still not sure what's doing it, but at least the "smart manager" stopped giving me advice about what makes errors awhile ago.
I have same problem...s6 freezes when playing podcast. Seems this is more common than I realized. Went to sprint replaced phone...same problem.
Get into the safe mode. Then return the normal mode.
Has anyone experience the second screen not working all of a sudden? Mine is just dark with the main screen both on and off. I tried toggling the second screen on and off from the setting, reboot, battery pull, and wiping cache and dalvik but so far none worked.
It's not a hardware issue, I think, because when I open the camera, the second screen comes on for the camera Settings. Also, when in twrp, the second screen is also on as a part of the whole display.
EDIT: I can actually see some light bleed from the second screen with the main screen off. It's just not displaying information it should for some reason.

I just got mine, and something I did in the course of adding/changing/modding did the same - I lost my second screen when the phone was off, but when it was on I had my shortcuts. I wound up factory resetting and re-installing/re-configuring my apps... knock on wood, everything works just fine now. I think mine failed when I unfroze an app in Titanium that it marked for me.
About the only thing that I did before I lost the second screen is installing a game from the play store. I have uninstalled it, but still no luck. I most likely will factory reset and if that doesn't work, I'll flash stock rooted rom... And set my phone up yet again.

Same symptoms
I am on stock, albeit rooted. I froze a few apps, but I have also rebooted multiple times before the second screen disappeared, so I am not sure how anything I have done this far could be the cause.
Because I saw I am not alone, I started to do some digging. It looks like the app is located in /data/data/com.lge.signboard, which actually has symlinked directories. Not sure if its a clear indicator of the issue, but most of the directories are empty. Definitely odd.
I'll load up SSHd later and see if I can investigate more.
Did the factory reset and now the second screen works. I'm sincerely hoping that this is not a regular occurrence. I haven't liked a phone so much since galaxy s2.

I also had my second screen go funky. Haven't factory reset but I'm going to. It seemed to happen as I was also defrosting and refreezing some LG things, mainly services and such and not apps that you interact with per se. At right about the same time I noticed something else strange. When plugging the phone in, it takes several seconds for it to realize it whereas before it used to be instant. Also, the camera is very slow to load and change from the front to the back ones.
So I got a little bored
And fired up adb logcat to see if I could find anything. I don't yet know if it's related or not, but there is a message
Code:
I/[SystemUI]MiniStatusBar( 5541): signBoardWindowShow() requested but unavailable. Hide MiniActivity.
that shows in the log.
I to tried clearing cache and dalvik or art or whatever to try to get the second screen back no avail.
I'm having the same issue. Any update on this?
I too am interested in this, I had this issue occur too when I froze some applications (system apps) that I didn't think were necessary. Unfortunately once you freeze the component it blocks the screen and unfreezing everything back does not bring the screen back you have to factory reset it. Any ideas of what the service is that affects the second screen?
Second Screen symlink busybox
After reading all your comments on what you could have done to cause the second screen from working, it looks like the symlink is broken especially if you have updated your busy box. I too started to have the second screen go bad on me and I couldn't figure it out until I read this thread especially the log post. I am going to reset and ensure that smart install is set right in busy box.
Recently, the AT&T LG V10 (H900) just got root here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-v10/general/root-lg-h900-real-tot-make-tungkick-t3336317
I then debloated the V10 on firmware H90010f with Debloater v3.90 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
Before, I decided to have the second screen off for a while, so I disabled it in the system's menu. I then advanced towards debloating. Decided to turn on the second screen again. Notice that there were issues with it. So now I'm currently experiencing this issue: the second screen does not show date, time, weather, notifications, quick icons. Only shows quick toggles if I swiped from right to left, such as sound profile, WiFi, flashlight, and camera. I undo all of the debloating, rebooted the phone many times, still the same problem. Sigh. I'm trying to avoid doing factory reset because I'm not up to reloading everything again, especially the SMS/MMS.
So, anybody found out a better solution other than doing a reset?
Update 1: It seems like re-rooting with updating the ROM with the "upgrade" option for the AT&T LG V10 to not do a full clean install does not solve the problem. I didn't lose all my personal data, but I did not gain anything that it restored system apps to previous default settings. Sigh, it's just one step closer to just do a factory data reset.
Update 2: There appears that other things were broken from disabling/removing apps (during phone calls, cannot multitask, such as switch apps or use the notification area; SuperSU couldn't generate a log correctly), so I went ahead and did a factory reset since there was no alternative restoring method. The second screen works again and so does the said apps. Looks like I'll have to be careful which apps I'll be disabling/removing with Debloater.
Uninstalling an app restored my second screen.
I had this issue as well. Camera controls were in the second screen space, the swipe to end call would appear, but none of my other settings stayed long after restarting my phone, maybe 10 min. I uninstalled some of my most recent apps, the suspect one being "Zooper Widget Pro" and the issue stopped. No factory data reset etc. This app was a launcher-type app (I'm a geek but nowhere near the tech terms used elsewhere on this site) and I thought it might be the issue due to its ability to control the home screen. I doubt it was intended to work with this arrangement. So I would look at any launchers or apps which can control the home screen before doing a reset as this exact issue was easily solved for me.
I just got the phone and set it up. the only thing I disabled was ATT bloatware nothing else. 2nd screen is only on when main one is on. Using nova launcher. I tried uninstalling and that didn't help. Is there any more info on this, can I get it working without factory reset ? I get no indication of notification right now other than sound.
I did factory reset and that didn't help either.
I have a same problem with the second screen to. So anybody can help me!
Is there anyone can help me pls!!!
I solved this problem by checking PINs on mainboard for the second Flex Cable for LCD of LG V10, see the video, READ comments here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpeVAqgU94s, so in my case one of three PINs was folded little, so one PIN contact didn't touch the second Flex Cable and this caused the problem...
This setting has been working fine since i got the phone but ever since this particular phone has received the android 12 update, this setting (screen off push block) has essentially stopped working, no matter what i do, after a restart, they just revert to the initial values as shown in the picture (messages app off and all others are on). I have tried resetting the phone multiple times with no avail. I have another one of the same exact phone that was updated to the same exact XOS version, but this issue is not present there (Both phones are completely stock). Is there a way to fix this?
