Fascinate Froyo (DL30) Clock Lag

I've installed the DL30 leak and since then, i'm noticing that the phone clock lags about 20 minutes behind a day. Rebooting the phone syncs the clock for a little bit but the clock still lags after a few hours.

Under Setting --> Date and Time, Automatic is checked (use network-provided values).

I didn't have this problem before flashing DL30 and I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing it and if there is a fix out there for it.

Thanks!

I had this issue the first day I ran Froyo on my Fascinate.

I no longer have the problem.

I am not sure what fixed it, but you might try pulling the battery out and waiting 30 seconds or so before putting it back in...

Yea, I noticed this too when my alarm this morning went off about 20 minutes late.

So when is Supercurio going to start working on a Voodoo ClockLagFix? :p

Huh... mine hasn't been like that, that I noticed. However, after I did my flashing I have restarted my phone numerous times as I did other things and just to make sure everything is running appropriately.

With that, I've had NONE of the issues others have stated in these forums.

I have that issue too. I noticed my phone was off by approx 20 minutes yesterday morning. But today it was off by almost 2 hours. I didn't notice any lag during regular phone use yesterday (but then I didn't check for lag, assuming the time was current and accurate) The lag seems to occur overnight during periods of inactivity. I suspect it is dropping the network connection to save power, thus losing time sync corrections. But for it to slip back almost 2 hours...that's some serious lag.

Download the app called "Clock Sync" its free and it synchronizes with atomic time. You can decide how often (must be at least every 3 hours).

I have rebooted numerous times and left the battery out. It seems that the clock is slow and doesn't sync up when on automatic. The strange thing is if i turn off automatic and set the time it is still slow and drifts.

If I then switch back to the automatic setting the clock is alright for a few hours.

Has anyone disabled 3g data? I had it disabled for about a day while hanging around the house then noticed the time being off. I made a call then the time corrected itself with data still being turned off. A while later it was off again. I turned 3g data back on and times been right since. I assume this is related.:confused:

Update: Everything seems to be working fine now. All I did was uncheck the automatic setting for a couple of hours and then re-check it.

Now I am going on a day without am issue. I did not have to reboot either.

I've done the same thing and the issue seems to be resolved. No drifts for almost a day now.

It still lags for me too. Ive restarted and pulled the battery multiple times. It started to lag when I unchecked automatic, so I checked my timezone, rechecked automatic and it instantly jumped an hour back in the WRONG direction...

I wanted to install a fresh copy of DL30, so I used ODIN to install DL09 then I installed DL30. That didn't fix it!!

Then I installed the DL30 Super Clean ROM 1.0. And that didn't fix it either.

Seems the only option for fixing this issue is to go back to DL09.
