WPS sometimes does not display clock (Gigabeat F40)

(1/3) > >>

Chronon:
I have seen this happen several times, but it's not very predictable.  I will occasionally turn on my unit and play some music only to notice that nothing is displayed by the RTC codes in the WPS.  The clock displays fine in the menu screens, but only plain text characters appear (such as the colon that should separate hours from minutes) on the WPS.  This happened last night and this morning.  But after a charge and reboot everything again displays properly.  I haven't been able to find any determining factor for when this will happen, nor what corrects it.

Has anyone else noticed this behavior?  I'm currently using a build from yesterday afternoon, but I had also noticed this a few weeks ago.

bascule:
Yes, like yourself, it's an intermittent problem, but I just live with it.

I'm making an assumption that it's related to the WPS parsing/rendering rather than a core firmware/hardware problem, but I don't know for sure...

Llorean:
Is the clock set to the right time when it shows in the status bar but not in the WPS?

bascule:
Yes. For me, the clock is always set correctly, it is just that it is not displayed at all in the WPS, as if the RTC tags are not being populated...

It does not appear to be related to reboots, power cycling or switching the battery off :(

Chronon:
Llorean, the clock is set correctly for me also.  It just seems to occur randomly.  At least I cannot find any pattern so far.  It hasn't happened again since I posted this.   :-\

I would like to at least have a predictable way of producing this behavior before filing a bug report.  Otherwise, it doesn't seem that such a report would be terribly helpful.
