Do you use the stock launcer? Mine did strange things when using the apex launcher. No problems with stock launcher from cm10.

You could try the clock sync app from the play store. It worked on my phone when it had clock sync issues with a rom. Unfortunately, i'm new to xda, so I can't post the link, but just go to the play store and search for clock sync. It's by Sergey Barinov.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Henu:
Thanks, but unfortunately none of this methods helped- I´m still having the same issue even with the 11/11- build, running Clock Sync as well. :( Anyone could shed any light here? I wish I wouldn´t have to go back to some (yuck) stock version.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] tidal25w:
I don't know if this will help but I just resolved this issue for myself. I did a factory reset. And also wiped all caches and system before flash. Then immediately after flash before rebooting system I wiped everything again except system. And then I started up and there was no issue with the clock. I'm running cm 10. I hope this helps.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Henu:
Sounds like voodoo but I´m all in for trying even that. :D I will post the results tomorrow.

To confirm:

1) Basic superwipe procedure (factory reset/ system, cache, dalvik)

2) flash OS -> don´t boot yet up to OS like normally

3) wipe cache & dalvik

4) THEN reboot -> to OS?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Henu:
Voodoo, baby.

It worked. Seriously, what the hell. :D My wild guess is that some file(s) might be corrupted in the actual package- and when the system notices they are missing at the first boot, it will replace them with working ones. Then again, I´m no Android/ Linux expert.

With a clean install, I ran alarm after 8 hours. Worked. Then I added Apex Launcher, waited 2 hours. Alarm went on. Installed everything again with Titanium Backup, put alarm after an hour. Still worked. So I can confirm that it´s not app- dependant but OS- dependant. However, it worked, so thanks a goddamn zillion!!! :)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] tidal25w:
Congratulations. Just happy to help.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Henu:
I´m going to snap this piece of junk into half soon.

The problems came back, no reason why. I´m now trying one more thing, which is completely disabling Tasker, as it´s basically the only thing running while the screen is off. If that doesn´t help, i´m clueless.

EDIT: What a surprise, it didn´t help. So, it´s either non- functioning CM10 or stock ICS. I could had settled with CM9 easily, but that gave me the battery bug after two weeks. Seriously, this whole me- buying- a- tablet- and- getting- it- to- work has been a living joke. I just would love to have a stripped down OS with a Kernel supporting "all sorts of stuff" like processor speed, running app restriction, tweakable backlight etc. :(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Henu:
Ok, so I wiped cache and dalvik and it worked for a couple of hours. Then last night the clock froze again. And this was quite interesting..

Alarm set at 10:30

I wake up 11:15 (hey, it was New Year´s Eve :D )

I press power and the clock says 11:15 and next alarm is set "tuesday 10:30".

Two seconds later the alarm hops into "wednesday 10:30".

Two hours later I press power, and the clock is 11:15 for a second and jumps to real time. So it´s definitely broken again.

I was just wondering- maybe I could try replacing the clock with another kernel´s version, would that be possible? Any help would be much appreciated.

EDIT: I also tried -once again- without automatic time& date (as my connectivity is set to cut off while the screen is off) and it still didn´t alarm me until I manually pressed the screen on.

EDIT2: Ran A1 kernel, no effect, still bugged.

EDIT3: Ran Tracid´s official ICS. Worked for a day, then bugged. Same thing with A1 kernel. I also had some serious issues with MTP connection and bootloader, so I restored stock and brought it back to the store where I got it for warranty repair. They think it´s a faulty MoBo.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Henu:
I´m shamelessly bumping this. I ran the stock firmware with Odin and took it to the repair, as I wrote earlier.

Got the tab from warranty repair, seems that the only thing they had performed was "software update" . Very useful for someone who is constantly switching ROMs etc... like I hadn´t tried that before. :D

After returning to stock and all, I installed CM10 again. And "surprisingly", the problems started again. With or without apps, launchers, cachewipes, younameit. I´m now giving this a test with the stock ROM for a couple of days. I actually hope it doesn´t work, because that would be the only reasonable thing now. If it works with the stock ROM, I´m getting clueless. Does that mean I have some sort of issue which happens only in flashed ROMs instead of the stock one? That would be just....awkward.

Hi everyone, my mom's g2x screen has been acting weird lately (although mom has never noticed). Every 5-10 minutes it would be unresponsive, nothing can be touched UNLESS you press the back button, which makes the screen responsive again.

[Nokia Lumia 920] jpneves1978:
I am looking forward to getting my hands on wp8 most likely a lumia 920. My question is does anyone know of remote desktop software? I was really dissapointed that wp7 did not have one that was as easy as teamviewer. I have emailed teamviewer with the usual reply " if something is developed we will let you know." I have tried all the remote apps onn my wp7 to log into my work pc and no success. I have to resort to teamviewer on my laptop or my tablet. Does anyone know any inside knowledge or is it due to fact that I had a wp7 rom on my hd2 that prevented the remote control apps to work?

Does anyone know what causes msm_hsic_host wake lock?

I've left my phone idle overnight and it has had a lot of this wakelock showing in better battery stats

WiFi was left on if that is relevant

Can't really find any references to this wakelock via our friend Google

[EDIT: it appears the wakelock is 'normal' for stock builds and is linked to the radio sending data. some custom kernels can reduce the wakelock]

Probably won't help but I'm having this problem with my Optimus G as well. More likely a hardware/firmware problem?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FISKER_Q:
hsic = high-speed inter-chip, perhaps some kind of transfer from the SoC to another chip(Perhaps for the modem?).

VDDIO might have something to do with voltage regulation of the bus itself?

Maybe try in airplane mode and see if it solves anything? Otherwise it probably requires an update from Qualcomm if it appears on both Neuxs 4 and Optimus G

31.2% kernel wakelocks from this one, from 100% to 70% in 2 hours, screen on like 20 mins. This is getting ridiculous. Might it be root related? I used the toolkit and did the 1 click for all which included root, CWM and busybox.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pedxing:
No he had that in the build notes for the N4 (mako).

Still testing...I still see the lock at fairly normal levels -- 14.8% of total time since unplugged. However, I'm also getting only about 1.5% battery usage per hour when left untouched which is excellent in my opinion. That's where I was when I had the GNex all tuned up on ICS. If this continues, regardless of what betterbatterystats says about the wake lock, I'm ready to let it go.

The real test will be the 6-8 hour overnight sleep test.

(This is with google now, location settings on, but with location tracking in maps/latitude turned off).

This is the kernel 002 beta 1 from the roots thread referenced above.

---------- Post added at 10:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ----------

Update: I've got the new faux kernel running on the unofficial romanbb build of aokp from 12/4. So far pretty damn good.

On the sleep test it's only gone down .5% per hour over 4 hours so far. 90% deep sleep state. BBS still shows the lock there but it is empirically having very little to no effect on the battery. I never got below 1%/hr drain on my gnex and I'm a freaking gnex battery black belt. (I've gotten 8 hours screen time on that phone with the 2100 mah battery.) :D

By the way the test was NOT in airplane mode. This is on WiFi but with everything turned on.

So, still cautious, but pretty psyched about it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasx003:
Sounds good. I'm curious how it works off wifi. That's when I get most of my rain from the wake lock. Very little while on wifi as is.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FranzBier:
Still this only adresses the effect, not the source of the problem.

Its like the google maps thing.

Often data means often wakeloks (which seems no to (be) release fast eneugh).

Lesser data -> lesser wakelocks-

Shorter wakelock time -> lesser wakelock impact.

But still these wakelocks occur much to often i think.

Anyway i will try this kernel and have a look. Still tinkering with my own kernel here :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberkid2002:
But is it a kernel issue... Or something in the os making the phone wake at certain intervals?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FranzBier:
No one knows where it comes from.

And to be honest: There are this many phones with this "problem" (all S4 ones i think) that i hardly can imagine that google or LG would not have done something agaist.

I think it has some sense, dunno what and why. Maybe we cant get rid of it at all.

P.S. the newest fauxkernel makes it worser i think :( had 13,3% of this WL 22min in 2h 45 uptime. -4% battery / h

Here's some BBS screenshots. Headed to bed with 25% battery so I decided to see what it would do overnight. Did not turn the screen on after 11:15 until about 7:30 this morning. I had Wifi off the whole time, Kernel % is % of awake time.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pedxing:
There's a bug but this is the source. Based on the way the S4 communicates between various modules you will see this wake lock. There are about 15 files in the source that refer to this "tag" we call msm_hsic_host. Many things can cause it, although most are related to either sending or receiving data on the WIFI radio or the GSM radio. I assume some USB events can cause it as well.

So the lock will happen, that's not the issue. The issue (and the bug) relates to the count and duration of the locks. What faux did is reduce the suspend time which causes this lock to be drastically reduced in true wakelock time. This is a tuning problem. The original engineer picked a time that would be sure to work but was probably not optimal. Happens all the time.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunes:
Yeah I hear ya. It amazes me this can make it thought he QA process though, it is straight in your face with BBS there is a problem.

"msm_hsic: decrease timeout duration in detecting stuck PHY during sus…"

Hmm? Stuck PHY? Sounds like we'd encounter this situation when hardware isn't responding correctly. So my question is... Why is that? And is there firmware for whatever device (that times out) that can reduce the occurrence of timeouts and therefore reduce the amount the phone is staying awake waiting for a non-responding device?

Or maybe it's purpose is something else entirely. Haven't looked at it and just going by the comment.

Battery life on mobile data is excellent s well.

Using 3g only and no wifi at all.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phositadc:
That still seems bad to me. On every android I've owned android os and android system are very similar to each other- and never that high, even when the phone is idle. I still think something is off even if your battery life is now better.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pedxing:
In my experience, it depends. In this case, a sleep test was being performed, meaning screen on time was minimized. In that situation the only thing that's running is Android OS/System...it's running it's deep sleep profile but waking itself up every so often for a few milliseconds of activity like syncing. Since the battery monitor has to show something, the Android OS and Android System lines look alarmingly high. If the device was being used (screen on, phone calls, screen off music playing, etc) you would see the OS and System lines go down immediately. It's also noteworthy that the test was for only 2% of the power. The battery monitor report is pretty wacky when it doesn't have at least 10% worth of drain to report on.

The other item to note is we've already seen drastic changes in how battery consumption is reported between android OS versions and between different SoCs. The S4 Pro is brand new...there may be some shaking out to do in how things get reported. It's evident from the code that msm_hsic_host is somewhat generic...we'd probably get better reporting if that was divided out into a few differend locks instead.

Before I even bought the device, I was thinking this thing should get 4-5 hours screen-on time. My GNex could get 4 hours screen on time pretty regularly (a heavy use day was more like 2.5). One time I even got 8 hours screen-on time (reading ebooks). So the N4 has the following advantages...S4 has a better battery profile than OMAP4, IPS+ is slightly better than Super AMOLED at medium brightness/white screen, battery is the same (I have the 2100 mah extended on the GNex), and finally GSM vs LTE -- huge difference. So I'm hopefull this amounts to an extra hour a day of usage. Which will be just about perfect. :fingers-crossed:
