Bought the GR7900KG-3 off of ebay. The battery was dead when I received the watch. I charged the watch and eventually came back on. It took almost 3 weeks but eventually the charge light quit flashing and the battery level is now on high. The problem I have now is the watch is in power saver mode, no buttons will work and has yet to auto set the time. Is there anything I can do to try and make the watch work properly?

Would you mind posting a clear photo of the watch? Ebay is littered with fakes, and unfortunately, what you've described, is not the normal behavior for a genuine G Shock. A close up photo would give us a better idea of how to direct you/...
I also wonder what happened next...
Maybe battery still doesn't have enough charge to power the watch, just PS mode.

If it's a GR-7900 it won't auto set the time as it's not atomic - that would be the GW-7900. And there have been some reports about unresponsive buttons on that model. If it's still under warranty I'd return it.

If you're not careful discharging your body static when you swap a solar cell you can fry it pretty easily too, knock down its capacity a lot. I had an old solar Casio get stuck just like this but it was because the battery was screwed up. I left it in a drawer for a few months until the battery was COMPLETELY dead and recharged it, everything was back to defaults.
