Galaxy S4 i9505 clock stuck when screen locks - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a strange issue with my galaxy s4 i9505, lollipop. My clock get stuck when I lock my screen. And time does not update even when screen is unlocked i.e the clock starts from the same time when screen was locked. For example if I lock my screen at 10:00 am, and if after one hour I unlock the screen, the clock will start from 10:00 am instead of 11:00 am. I tried searching on the internet but I could not find any help regarding this. However there were discussion about the lag of one or two second about the time update when screen unlocks. Any ideas about this??

Factory reset, I guess.

Do you have automatic date & time enabled?

I had something a little similar, but it included all my widgets. are you using go launcher or a go product like next3d launcher ? the problem persisted thru different firmwares and launcher updates. I had to go into the launcher and stop it so that it would restart itself. sorry that I don't have a solution, I never got to the bottom of the issue, it simply stopped happening at some point and I'm not even sure why...

Yes, I tried both enabling and disabling it, issue stays as it is. Currently it is enabled. I have no clue what's wrong. It is so annoying

I am not using any go launcher or go product. All things/apps are default that come with lollipop.

PLEASE HELP!! Glitch is KILLING ME!!!

So I recently did a manual update to 2.3.2 , and since that update I've been getting this glitch that is annoying the heck out of me. While I'm on the phone , I hear the lock sound , as if I locked the phone. I checked to see if my finger hit the lock button and it was nowhere near it. I happens every once in a while but geez its annoying...Has anyone heard of or had this issue? If so PLEASE HELP. I've tried restoring the device and the glitch continues
It may be a part of your settings or a 3rd party application that is being restored after you restored your device. Try restoring your device again. This time DO NOT sign into gmail at the prompt. Instead, choose SKIP. Click the market icon from the app drawer and sign in from there. This prevents market from automatically installing apps, as well as restoring previous backed up settings.

Alternatively, couldn't you just turn the lockscreen sound off? I always forget there is even a sound because I turn it off.

I'm confused because my phone doesn't have a lock sound and hasn't since I first turned it on
Check that Settings -> Sound -> Screen lock sounds is off

[Q] Cant pull down notification bar

Hey Guys, Ive got an infuriating problem. I cant pulldown my notification bar, my notifications just sit there taunting me, or at least they did till I remembered the dedicated nav key option lg offers but still I don't want to have a non functioning notification bar. I didnt do anything to my phone around the time this happenEd, just picked it up and found I couldn't pull it down. I've tried restarting, reflashing and wiping. I've even got it back to "unrooted" status in both the settings and download mode incase its a digitiser issue. Any thoughts guys? Id rather not loose my pride and joy for a week at the least if you guys have some ideas.
Thanks for your time and assistance :fingers-crossed:
I jave tje same issue are you using the xsposed because thats about wen mine happened. After i updated i noticed the center clock freezes and notification wont pull down. How ever a system ui reboot(soft reboot) fixes my issue

I might have done something with xsposed, maybe hiding the location icon. I reflashed the entire phone so Im pretty sure that includes a ui reboot somewhere in there. Also I found out it works in landscape mode, I can just pull it down like regular. Using the dev features "show touches" "show touch data" in none of my touches are recognised where the notification bar would be (top 1/4th inch near mic) even when in landscape mode.

I enabled things, not many, if any. They would have been enabled for a while tho before the problem arose. Wouldn't reflashing the system wipe out any software changes?

Yeah, there were quite a few bugs with 1.2.8. I had to send a full bug report to Motorola, as did others.
Some issues included:
Notifications not working with certain apps
AN failing to wake the screen when device was moved
AN failing to wake the screen when a notification arrived
AN failing to open an app from the AN screen
Active display STILL doesn't show any notifications for me.

I turned off active display because any movement and it would turn on the clock and catch my eye which is very distracting and annoying, anyway to disable that without disabling the whole feature?
Mine was working perfect, did a factory reset to try and fix the high android OS usage and now it's not working. This is very annoying.

If you go into the Apps side of the Activity Display you should be able to un-check the Clock and it won't show it anymore.

I did that. Then remembered I took the Navigation buttons out via the Build.prop and had a hell of a time trying to reinstall everything without them. :laugh: I use LMT Pie Controls so I had to reinstall them through the Play Store before I could reinstall all my other apps. I then took LMT Pie Controls and made them flashable so that the next time I do a factory reset I can just reinstall them via recovery.
What irks me most is that half my notifications aren't working a week after buying the phone. When they worked the day I got it. Gmail doesn't show up, 1Weather doesn't show up, the battery no longer shows up. Outlook does and Messaging does. I know Motorola said there was a problem with 1Weather not working properly but the day I set my phone up a little over a week ago it worked. Now all of a sudden it doesn't, and Gmail should work but doesn't.
Also, does the image verification thing for the forum ever go away? It's kind of a PITA to remember it's there when I post. Guys, I'm not a robot. Seriously.
I turned off the sleep function of active display and now my notifications are working. I haven't tried turning it back on to see if it would work but just something to try for those who are having an issue.

Did you reboot the phone after updating? It's a highly integrated system function. It should require a reboot after updating. I noticed it acted the same as 1.2.8 until I restarted the phone.

Turn the phone face down or cover the proximity sensor face-up.
Just a suggestion. When some apps get updated like line app and some other apps, they get unchecked in that active notification select apps menu/setting. I have to go back and manually check them again to show up on active display.

Always On Display latest version always on full brithness

I've updated AOD (Always On Display) via Galaxy Apps to version 1.4.02, and since then, most of the time, AOD is at full brightness, even when my device in my pocket, it takes long for the screen to turn off like it should.
I'm not sure if this specific version is buggy or it is something else, but when i'm using my phone, brightness is OK.
Anyone who updated it too can confirm its related to the AOD update?
I'm just afraid of screen burns and battery drain.
I just set a note pad on the top part of my screen to block the sensor and mine dims in 1 minute by my count and goes completely blank a few seconds after that. Try this with yours.

I'm experiencing the same problem after update and its killing battery really fast so turn off for now until next update hoping they'll fix it
my screen is not going pure dark on always on display... preview of always on screen theme is good and the backuground is pure dark, but when i lock the screen, it looks little bit grey colored background.
how can i fix it? i'm on new firmware (1.4.02)
mine was different case....when it's on AOD the automatic bright sensor doesn't work.when it's active on dark room AOD was dark & when it's active on bright room AOD was always bright.how can i fix this issue?
And one more thing the new update changelog show now its support clear view case.but it's not working.when i close the cover it doesn't show the picture which i selected on AOD setting.its show only the time like before the update.

I glad to hear its version related and not my sensor or something like that.
Actually, a lot of people experiencing problems with this version, not only this problem.
I hope they will fix it soon.
By the way, do you know what the previous version was? I would like to search for an APK, maybe i'll uninstall the updates and install the good one.

You can't uninstall I tried it. I can't remember the last version but try download any version lower than the last and don't forget to uncheck auto update

You can uninstall all updates you did
go to settings, app manager, 3 dots, show system apps, find "always on display", 3 dots again, uninstall updates.

waking phone not responsive

Sometimes when I pick up my phone after it's been sitting at my desk neither the double tap to wake or the power button will wake my device. Anyone else experienced this?

Been having this issue since I got it. None of the updates have resolved it. 9.0.7 hasn't been as bad as 9.0.6 was, but it still happens at least once a day. Haven't updated to 9.0.10 yet. This is my only real gripe I have with this device so far.
I have mine set to tap once on screen to wake up. Sometimes I get this where I need to press power button to wake up.

I have checked with both single tap and double tap, both of them aren't perfect. Miss mostly when phone is idle for too long. Have to use power button in those cases.
I have had the same issue on both 9.0.7 and beta 1. Sometimes tapping the screen does nothing. The phone does not wake up and i have to got the power button (I have it set on single tap to wake).
I suspect it could have something to do with pocket mode.
I have the same problem. Disabling pocket mode did not resolve the problem.

That's it then. I had the same issue from the start. Even replaced my unit for it. But its basically oos killing apps in order to save battery. And it kills our beloved nova too. It was solved for me after i root my device and grant nova root permissions. If u dont wanna root try using the default launcher for few days and see if the problem still persists.

This happens, in my case, with the default launcher from OnePlus.
I'm on full stock unrooted beta1, and had the same issue on 9.0.7.
Hasn't happened in a few days though.
