Hi there.
My Hermes is running WM6 (Shamanix Grass Rom) and for some strange reason whenever I set the time to GMT+10 (Sydney) it will change it back to GMT +10(Vladivostok) after a few hours or a few days. This is annoying during Daylight savings times as my phone can be out of time by an hour.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I don't really want to Hard Reset it because setting up my 3G Services is a massive pain.
Thanks,
maybe you can try settings->personal->phone->time zone
and disable auto time zone and clock
Ok, Tried that. I'll see how it goes in the next few days
Since a few days my Touch's clock time is about 3 minutes ahead of real time. It does not accept the time synchronized with activesync and when I use synchrotime the wrong time is back after a couple of minutes.
Any idea what could cause this disturbing behaviour?

When sync'ing with pc, make sure you have allowed for syncronizing date & time
When pc is connected to HD, open Activesync > Tools > Options > Settings > and ensure 'Syncronize pocket pc date & time upon connecting' is ticked
Thank you very much for trying to help me.
Time synchro in activesync is activated.
Perhaps this helps to explain my problem:
When I update my time using Synchrotime over the internet connected via wlan the query shows a time difference of 179.00 seconds. When adjusting to the correct time the wrong one is back after a couple of minutes without doing nothing at all on my touch. The time difference stays between 150 und 179 seconds so the time is not running too slow.
Hmmmm. Haunted black stone! Some one is updating you time in the background.. may be your phone service provider
Go to Settings>Phone>Time Zones> Uncheck - Automatic Change Time zone and clock. See if that helps.
Great! Deactivating the synchro via phone solved the problem.

hi there I followed your instructions and it did fix my time clock but when i get text msgs the once i get they come with 3 hours ahead, but if i leave it with time zones my time is out 3 hours. all these after applying one click root on a HTC INSPIRE , sorry i couldn't find thread similar for inspire.
Woke up today, turned my phone on and to see that the time is 3:05 hours ahead of time and the date is Friday the 25th!!! .. tried updating my location, enabling and disabling all the time and date settings.. also editing the time manually but still it goes back to live in the past!
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits eighty-eight seconds... you're gonna see some serious ****.

Try disabling GSM network time update
Settings->Menu->AllSettings->Personal->Phone
Go to:
GSM/UMTS Services tab
Select "Time Synchronization"
Click "Get Settings" button
uncheck the "Synchronize . . ."
Som30ne,
i have tried that and still no joy.. I'm formatting now.. I'm just puzzled why this thing happened?
Date and time reset everytime I remove the battery. Is this normal?
This behavior started after one year of use. On the other hand clock and date are on right values if I do a factory reset but when I pull the Li-ioN out same story repeats It's annoying because i do this daily and messages are all messed up if i receive them before I set the time ... bah. Anyway how can i make my phone allways (after every battery change) sync the clock as it does after factory reset? Yes i have checked automatically sync clock with network. Does HTC Tattoo has any internal batteries to run the clock? Can i run this issue under warranty?

Yes it is normal in following condition
automatic time update off in settings
your network can't give real time or not update time
when i go to my college my phone time always goes wrong because network tower in that area always show wrong time (Also my friend lives in that area have that problem)
if settings is not OK correct them
for network u can't do anything
But what is the diference in protocol to sync date&time when resetart in factory reset and regular restart? Because on the factory reset clock syncs somehow with network and its diplayed correctly but not if I just remove the battery.
Whats the deal with internal battery does Tatto has one?
I have a question like this one. If i turn "automatic time update" on , and the alarm will be late some mins. sometimes, the time will be correct when I wake the phone up ....
for alarm go here
tattoo not have any internal battery so when u remove battery date time deleted from memory & when u do factory reset it first set ur information gmail setup & automatic time setting on that time
Hello
I have my G2 for 3 days now, and I keep having the same weird problem every morning when I turn it on: the clock "looses" one day, and either advances or loses a few minutes.
Yesterday I checked as the hour went past 00h and the date changed to day 19, thursday ('I'm on GMT 00). The phone and computer had the same time.
I left my phone off during the night, and today when I turned it on I found it at 10.00 o'clock (8 minutes in advance of my computer). It also switched back to the 18th, wednesday. The weather/time app still detects it was last updated on the 19th.
I have automatic date-time-timezone switched off. If I turn it on, it will sync with the Internet and correct the hour, but that does not fix the problem.
Any ideas on what's happening? Any suggestions?
I'm on Android 4.2.2
Kernel 3.4.0
Software D80210b-EUR-XX
Yesterday (after midnight) I switched the phone off for more than 10 minutes, switched back on: all ok
Restarted the phone: was ok - up till 3 am the date/time was correct.
Turn it off, woke up this morning, turned it on: 5 minutes delayed, date went back to the 19th.
It seems what is happening is not really a lost of time. Today as I turned the phone on, it was showing 10:24, 20th (yesterday). This was over half an hour ahead of correct time. This happened after I had the phone off for 3 hours, so it's not a delay that increases as proportional to the time the phone is off. It must have something to do with some date/time on the settings, that override actual date/time.
I think this is like a "return to last settings", in this case, I believe this was the date/time set when I turned the phone on yesterday morning.
I already went by all apps I think could be related, but I can find no relevant option to prevent this.
That is indeed strange, maybe someone else around here can help you with that.
I don't think many people turn their phones off during the night.
Hi i think this is the same for all g2, my phone does the same thing once you turn it off the device is literally off. I am sure if you check the battery time it will show only from the time you rebooted it and not from last full charge. At the beginning i reported this issue but didn't get any reply but with further investigation i reached to the conclusion it wasn't an issue with device.
Any way regarding date time issue, you can simply make sure its automatically synchronized with network that way no matter whether its on or off it will be correct.
Sent from my LG-D802 using xda app-developers app
its probably cmos battery if phone has one, try warrantee
Thank you for your input
I've done a few more tests. I've flashed a different firmware, but it still does the same. This originally came with 10B-SEA, and I flashed it to 10B-EUR (UK open). Now it's back to SEA.
I've contacted LG about this, and they told me it's under analysis.
The phone will not loose date and time if it's powered off for one hour. After two hours it will happen and it will go back to the last time the phone was powered on and the clock was set.
I've been keeping it synced with the network time, and that way it works fine, but that's not a permanent fix. Yesterday I unchecked the automatic time, left it powered off for two hours, and it went back to monday.
I've read this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2580974, and it seems to be related.
Same problem with date and time
I do have the same problem. My phone model is D802 (international variant). But as far as I remember, this issue did not start from the day one. I purchased the phone some 2 months back. It was fine on the JB. It remained fine even after the KitKat update. But one day, my phone did show some weird problems. Serious lag coupled with overheating and battery drain. I did a factory reset because the phone was hardly usable at that point. After the reset, lag + overheat and battery issue was gone, but I remember that after that incident, it started this weird date/time sync issue. There is something which I wish to highlight by the attached screenshot. There is always a broken curve of battery usage whenever the date/time reverts which happens whenever you keep the phone switched off for a few hours. I am not a technical person, but this might be related to the battery.
Anyone have any luck with this? The main problem that this is causing is that when emails, texts, messages come in whilst the clock is incorrect (before it updates), these items get put out of sync with when they did actually arrive.
I contacted LG and they said...
If you have both options ticked, I would advise you to try and perform a hard factory reset. Before doing the reset, please ensure that you back up all of your files as all data will be lost during the reset. The details of the reset are as follows:
Turn the phone off
Press and hold the power key and the volume down key together
Release the power key only when the LG logo appears and immediately press and hold it again
Release both keys when the hard factory screen shows up
Select yes (use the power key to select yes)
Select yes again
This will then take you through the set up of the phone, and the issue should be resolved. I hope this helps you.
I haven't yet tried this, as from what I've read elsewhere, this wont fix it, plus it is a bit of a hassle to copy everything off and then reset, then et everything back on the way it was and all apps, etc.
Hi,
I've the same problem.
Can you tell me if Hard factory reset or LG support had resolved this issue?
I'm currently using ClockSync app that sync time every 3h and at boot.
The clock seems not to be very accurate : 1.139s of local offset in 2h...
I've tested the Clock_offset_fix. I'll update this post when I'll be sure that this solution is ok for me or not...

This is not an issue per say. It's just that the device is built this way..... So as far as I know there is no fix to this. Except you can have accurate date and time if you have a sim card in the device and auto date&tme option is ticked in settings. You see the device doesn't have a pc like cmos rom to store basic info like date and time. So when u turn off the device that info isn't maintained and becomes corrupted after some time but it is corrected when synchronized with the cell network provider at boot.
Hi, I have the same problem. is there any way to solve this problem? I have stock lolipop.

Make sure you have setting > date and time > automatic sync for all options...

Yes, I have automatic sync on, but the problem is when I can't access internet. What if I install Cyanogenmod?
