I ran a search but nothing showed up. I think I discvered something.. I was playing with stop watch one day... Closed it out.. Ten days later, I openup stop watch and its still timing! Mind you, I have restarted,both hard and soft and I've synced,in between those times. My stop watch read 244 + hours. And it was still ticking. So odd.to test this, I shut off my system, restarted. And what do you know, the stop watch was still running. I'll post a pic tomorrow morning! So odd.

can anyone confirm this?

mine works great.. sorry dude

yea my phone works great too. Just seeing if this happens on anyone elses phone. Start the stop watch BUT DONT TURN IT OFF OR STOP IT, hold the power button down, slide to shut off then turn back on. See if its still running.

I just had a similar experience. I was using the stopwatch and it was running for 14 minutes or something. Then i get a call, but she hangs up early. So i call her back, talk for a minute and hang up. When i got back to the stopwatch, it was displaying some HUGE number like in the screenshot, but it wouldnt even fit the screen. I think its a serious bug ;-)

I think the stop-watch just adds a file with the current time somewhere on the iPhone when you start it. When you don't stop the watch the file still exists on the iphone. Even after a reboot the file exists and the iPhone just calculates the difference between the actual time and the time in this file when you open the watch. Thats the reason why the watch is still running even after rebooting the phone.
