Mine was off 5 minutes again last night. It's happening while I sleep. I sleep with Wifi enabled and WiFi sleep policy is 'never when plugged in". But until yesterday it was 'when screen turns off'.

I am on EB01. I'm one of the few who have reported not being able to connect to WiFi on EB16.

I've been cycling my phone the last two days after wiping battery stats. I'll try flashing EB16 kernel tonight before bed and leave everything set as is and see what happens.

FYI,

I odin'd EB01 a few days ago, flashed Adryn's SFC 2.9+2.9.1 patch and still had clock lag. I then flashed the EB16 kernel he posted and clock lag is gone for now.

FWIW, I have not seen any clock lag on my current flash of SC 2.9. I had seen it & many other bugs with stock EB01 (touchwiz) and spent most of a month back on eclair (blackhole, ADW, 1/18 kernel)
because of that experience.

Currently, battery seems about the same as eclair, the clock hadn't lagged once, and the timer function actually has sound.
My exact route to getting here: EB01 all in one superclean odin 2.9.1 (which installed a voodoo kernel) -> vanilla 0.9.2 voodoo -> disable_lagfix -> sc 2.9 voodoo rom with eb16 voodoo kernel (still disabled). I needed to wipe data and cache and dalvik and avoided restoring my titanium. I didn't bother with the .1 patch. EB01 modem is retained from that odin. I don't see anything special about this process that would have fixed the lag, either superclean or the eb16 modem I guess, unless there is something magic hidden that odin or aosp. The phone has spontaneously rebooted one time but I have had no other issues in the four days since I have done all of this. It's really nice in fact.

I didn't note each difference, but it looks like there are many less directories on the phone after doing a fresh odin to EB01. I hadn't odin'd before doing the EB01, so between all the flashes here n there, there must be stuff that just doesn't get touched and is left on the phone that is causing problems. Im suspecting going between 2.1 and 2.2, a full odin wipe is in order to clear as much of the 2.1 system out. Stuff that a simple ROM flash doesn't touch.

FWIW I saw a tidbit in one of Adrenalyne's threads about Beautiful Widgets possibly being the problem, and all my clock lag vanished when I froze BW in Titanium. Unfroze it and it came back.

A pity, but I'd rather have accurate time than a pretty clock widget ;)
