So I just noticed whenever the timer is shown on the live space widget on the aod it doesn't count smooth. It stucks after a couple of seconds and then eventually refreshes again by itself or when I tap the screen. Anyone else?
Yes I've observed that as well.

Whenever I wake up my s3 from deep sleep mode, my minimalistic text clock hasn't updated since I last turned of the screen. Is this normal? If not, how do I fix it?
Check if any task killers have the app checked. Beautiful widgets did this when my Samsung task manager ran.

I have the same problem on my Galaxy S. Please email the developer. I have sent him several emails, but he hasn't been too responsive, maybe another email from you will help.
Minimalistic Text widgets do not and should not update while the screen is off. If you can't see the widgets why should they continue to be updated besides if they did continually update that would cause wakelocks draining your battery while the screen is off. If you're talking about the delay in your widgets being updated when you turn your screen on that probably has less to do with the app itself and more to do with your system being bogged down by other things. Do you have a lot of screens filled with a lot of different widgets all updating as you turn on the screen? It could also be as slayer621 suggested that the app is being killed while the screen is off so that it has to restart when you turn your screen back on.

I am talking about when I turn on the screen and the clock is delayed, otherwise that wouldn't make sense, lol. Anyway, I've tried having it so it was the only widget in an empty homescreen and it still didn't work. How do I prevent the task manager to prevent it from killing it?
I tried another clock widget, minimal clock widget, it too had delay whenever I turned on the screen. Specifically, it still had the same time on the last time I turned the screen off and updated itself 1sec after I turned it on.
Please email the developer about this problem. I have tried other clock widgets: some have no delay, some have a slight delay, but nothing as long as Minimalistic Text Clock.
Hi two times I faced this issue, When download any game or stopped the game while downloading on CM security store. It effect screen lock, which is just a slide lock, What 's my issue is when I slide open lock it keeps restarts continuously. So I switched off and on This time didn't slide for lock and just dragged notification bar and changed the screen lock pattern. It works but when I re changed to slide same repeats, So what it might causes to happen like this.
heys guys, i recently downloaded a calendar app that wakes my screen up when an event gets notified, fact is it just wakes up for like 2 secs.
in the calendar app settings you can decide how much time it has to stay awake, but it doesn't work at all. even if i set it up to stay awake for 30 secs, my screen gets back to sleep in like 2 secs, i tried to change every possible setting (display stuff, battery stuff etc) but i can't find a solution to it.
any idea pls? thanks
if you click the link below, this is what my phone was doing also if the always on display was set to time out after 10 seconds, if I set it to never time out it just wouldn't show up! I found out that the culprit was notifications from my nest doorbell. Once I swipe away the notification, my always on display works! Has anybody else had this issue? Just wondering if there is a fix somewhere?

I've been documenting my struggles with my lock screen in another thread. But I just had a major breakthrough and didn't want this to get buried.
To recap, my lockscreen has been a buggy mess from day one. The fingerprint sensor barely works, the fingerprint icon randomly disappears, and the gray border that's supposed to appear around the fingerprint icon simply doesn't show up. The lockscreen doesn't light up when I pick up the phone either (it stays dimmed). Also, wallpapers don't show up on the lock screen, and the big ugly clock sometimes disappears or moves itself to the top-left.
I've tried just about everything to fix this. As a last-ditch effort, I added a new user profile only to find that the lockscreen works perfectly well for this new profile (but still not for my main one).
Here's my main profile with the unusable lockscreen:
broken lockscreen of main profile
Watch "broken lockscreen of main profile" on Streamable.

And here's what it looks like when using the other profile:
working lockscreen on new profile

So there's clearly some obscure bug that most people aren't experiencing here. I'd love to just figure it out so I can move on.
When I didn't have the "always on display" turned on, the phone was very consistant about turning on properly when I picked it up. I ran it this way for 3-4 days without any issues.
After reading some articles on the P6, I realized that it has an AOD and that it was turned off. So I turned the AOD on while leaving all the other settings set the same. At first, the finger print icon wouldn't appear consistantly, but that is because I had adjusted the animation scale settings in the Developer settings. Changing that back to stock fixed the issue with the finger print icon not showing up.
That beings said, I have experienced the same "unresponsive" screen many times over the last couple of days that I have had the AOD turned on. The screen stays dimmed (or even turned off if I pull the phone out of my pocket) and the finger print reader is inactive (even though the icon is displayed). The screen is suppose to turn on when I lift the phone up, but it doesn't always do it. When this happens, I have to either manually turn the screen on using the power button, or double tap the screen to wake it. This is clearly a bug in the system somewhere. I probably need to report it to Google, but hopefully it is fixed soon.
After spending way too long on this, I've determined that the bug occurs consistently with these specific settings (although it may also occur for similar ones):
Lock after screen timeout: 30 minutes (or anything high enough to prevent it from locking between tests)
Power button instantly locks: disabled
Lift to check phone: disabled
Tap to check phone: disabled
Always show time and info: enabled
Replication steps:
1) Enter the above settings
2) Press the Power button to go to the lockscreen
3) Set your phone down for a couple seconds
4) Pick your phone back up and try to use the fingerprint sensor
Result: The fingerprint sensor won't work the first time.
I think all the other issues I had were actually stemming from this one issue.
