Clock widget problem - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else have the problem with TouchWiz stock clock widget? it doesnt update the time. It just gets stuck at the time you added the clock to a screen.

It is working OK here. Are you running a task killer?

used to do it to me, still does sometimes, it just stops all a sudden, havnt a clue why, i even tried different clock widgets and they did the same, not had the prob since rooted and froze some apps.

I have the same problem with Fancy Widget Pro. Has happened a couple of times, and I've either removed and re-added it, or just changed one of the clock settings and back again, and that causes it to reload with the correct time.

Reset weather widget

For some reason my weather widget when i'm at home always says 14 or current location, not the city name anymore. it has the correct name when i travel if i toggle gps and update the weather but never at home. is the anyway way to reset it clear the saved locations? I already tried the HTC weather widget in setting but all cache clearing options and the likes were grayed out. thanks for any help.
Quite common problem for users .... HTC and Verizon deny the problem exists though. I don't know of a definitive fix.
I figured out what it is, for me atleast. I use advanced task killer as im sure many eris users do (i know they say you dont need it but my eris can get sluggish with lots of apps running). I tried just not closing weather and it still gave me the issue, then on a whim I tried not closing the clock app as well. Voila! problem solved. It updates when I change position and the only apps I have running when idling are clock, weather, and atk.
That should solve it, just don't close out clock and weather and it should work.

For right now I wouldn't go force killing ANYTHING that was preinstalled on the phone when you got it. HTC Sense works in odd ways. As for me I only force kill apps that I put on the phone myself and I don't seem to have as many problems now (lockscreen lockups, jittery touch screen, touch screen not working).

[Q] Lockscreen Agenda getting killed

Hi,
I've installed Lockscreen Agenda on my SGS2 but during the day I notice that sometimes it gets killed by the system. I've already went to the Lockscreen Agenda settings and checked the option "Persistent Mode" (which is supposed to prevent the system from killing it) but the issue persists. I've also notice that sometimes the Lockscreen Agenda takes like a second or two to show up once I wake up the phone (not always, but sometimes).
Any thoughts on both matters?
thanks
Rafa
Nobody?.....
No answers for you, but I have downloaded it as it looks like a great app!
It IS a great little app...and I don't know why, but it just stopped getting killed

Screen on Sound??

I have posted about this exact same question before, so I knew the answer but it's not working this time...
I just loaded Eternity rom on my phone, and the sound that happens when the weather widget has sounds enabled keeps happening. I switched to a different clock widget, didnt work, I removed it entirely, still plays the sound!
I looked through menus to find any kind of start up sound, but can't find any settings. Am I missing something?
Click on the weather part of the clock and hit menu, you should know what to do by then.

I removed it entirely and it still happened. I figured out it was the weather live wall paper. I couldn't see any settings for it, but new background and it's finally gone. Why would anyone POSSIBLY think that was a good idea?? Insanely annoying...
simozeszj pretty much said it, you just have to hit menu in the weather ape and go to the settings. You'll see a toggle for sound effects there.

widgets stop updating

Hi all. I have a small issue with widgets..
I'm currently on APEX launcher and cm9. When i put any widgets on the home screen that auto update, they do work ok for a short while, but then stop. for instance, a clock widget will work for a 10 minutes maybe, but then stick.
I don't use any a task killer
any suggestions?

Guess what
I found out why Widgets won't updateing
When I enable lock screen the widgets are working ok but when I disabled the lock screen the widgets are stop updating.
It is weird thing.
does anybody know why it is happening because I don't need to have lock screen?

Clock Widget on homescreen sometimes freezes

Hello,
I have a problem with my clock widget. Sometimes the time freezes. It happens several times. The clock on the status bar goes normally but on the homescreen it freezes. For example the time is 9:30, on the status bar it shows 9:30 but the big clock on the homescreen stays for a long times at 8:45. And it is not because of the widget, because I tried different widgets from the play store. What could be the problem? I hope you can help me
I don't know why nobody answers but ok I try to show a screenshot to make it clear.
The homescreen clock and the statusbar clock are not synchrone
What ROM are you using? I've experienced this with MIUI, but never with CM or AOSP. That's one of the reason I don't like MIUI
I am using the stable 7.3 Miui from xiaomi.eu. i had this issue with different clock widgets
Cured on my phone by going to security , permissions, autostart and selecting clock to allow auto start....
