Hey just recently got my Nexus 4 and realized that my clock is not right. I am on T-mobile and my phone is about 20 minutes ahead of the real time when I have it set to automatic date and time. I have tried setting it manually but over time it still becomes faster than normal.
I set it manually on Saturday and am currently 25 minutes ahead of time.
Anyone else had this problem? Wondering if it is with the phone or T-mobile.

Hey all, the clocks have gone back an hour today to gmt. However my nexus one with cm6.1 is still showing the bst time. I have automatic time selected in settings, so it's supposed to be taking it from the network. I don't want to have to go to manual time selection if possible.
Anyone else seeing this problem?
I'm on O2 and it changed over without any problems.
Not sure if its a phone setting or it comes from the network but either way it worked
Orange here and time changed automatically
Fixed itself
Hmm... After selecting and selecting the automatic time option a few times, it seems to have fixed itself.
I wish out had done it automatically - my alarm went off an hour early!
You can use ClockSync to avoid such problems in the future http://www.appbrain.com/app/clocksync/ru.org.amip.ClockSync
I know that most phones sync without such apps, but I'm a bit OCD about exact time, so I sync my phone daily with atomic clock
Folks, Can you check your DVP time and the actual time today from google. My DVP time zone is set to 05-Eastern US and canada. As of this writing, the current time in DVP is 8:45am. The time as per google and other time sites is 7:45AM. Without DST applied, it is 6:45AM..Can't understand how the DVP shows +2 hrs when DST is in effect.
Edit: It looks like its a minor bug. The DST doesn't work off the get go automatically. Once i went into settings and came back to main screen (or used the phone for couple of minutes), the Time is synced.
================FOR MS==============
Sequence of event (this is for MS to troubleshoot):
1. Set Alarm to ring on weekends @ 7:45AM
2. Sunday 13th Mar 2011 came, alarm rang. Woke up and saw the time on the Device, it said 8:45AM
3. Was pissed that i am late by 1 hr. Booted up my computer and time popped up as 7:45(+/-5 min).
4. Checked my WP7 device again, still said 8:45AM.
5. Went into alarm and checked and came back to main screen and after 10 min, time says 7:55AM.
My inference:
1. Either Alarm is following a time clock on its own or it is not DST applied.
2. OS is not syned with timeserver(?) until one uses the phone?
=============FOR MS==================
My DVP showed the correct -5 Eastern shift BUT my alarm, set for 7am, went off at 8am (adjusted, it was 7am if the time change hadn't happened). I think we may be seeing the same thing. Once my alarm went off, then the time may have updated (the alarm woke me up, so I don't know what it read before that).
I then set a single a alarm, and that happened without a hitch. I didn't mess with my daily 'work' alarm, but added a second one one minute later just in case to track this issue.
I feel bad if this is a bug that's making anyone late for work today.
Yep, same for me...The Alarm was set for 7:45am and it went of @ 8:45am. I think the internal clock might be fine, just the display time is screwed up or buggy.
mines is correct
I'm not sure whats going on with you guys but I don't seem to have this. my time is displayed correctly with no change or intervention from me. I woke up this morning to the right time displayed on my phone. plus I did not have an alarm problem.
I'm using an HD7, not a dell venue pro. don't know if that makes a difference.
It might be just a DVP issue as well. One other thing to note is this bug happens only in a small windows of time (may be 5-10 min or less). So it is very easy to not notice by many. Also If one has the lock screen turning on all time - this might not happen - that's my guess.
Non Bad part - The alarm goes off fine, but time is shown wrong.
Bad part - If one had any appts/tasks to do said day, they might thing that they are 1 hr late and thier alarm screwed up - only to realize later that all is well and WP7 made fun of them.

Late
Just confirming, my alarm was set to 7h00 and went off at 8h00 and when you go into the alarm config it shows it was set to 7h00.
No such bug bugging my DVP.
Strange bugs keep popping out every now n then with dvp.

Seems like the few of us that had this happen had alarms set on Sunday. The rest may not have used it to wake up today.
It will be interesting to see if it's just the DVP or a widespread deal with WP7.
My gf has palm Pre + on AT&T, and the thing keeps loosing, or adding time randomly. In the last two days alone it has lost it's way 8 times
We've shut down the network time, and the normal culprit but it is just going crazy atm, and only 2 months on this phone to boot.
So has anyone else had anything remotely similiar to this, and how did you handle it?
clock sync might work, i got it from the app catalog
I have a nexus 10 and a Nexus 7. Both running the latest Android (4.2.2.). Both connected to the same network (in my hotel so I have no access to any routers). Both getting the system time "from the network".
My Nexus 7 is displaying the correct time. My Nexus 10 is displaying a time which is 7 minutes slow. If I correct it manually (untick "get time from network" and correct it myself) it displays the correct time. If I then tick "get time from network", it immediately goes 7 minutes slow.
So, where is it picking the time up from? I want to compare the 10 and 7 to see why they are different. Unless someone knows the answer?
Update. I took it to work this morning and the nexus 10's time had drifted by about 15 minutes (slow). When I then set it to get the time from the network, it went back another 7 minutes.
I have no idea what is going on here - but I would like to run some commands to find out. Anyone got any suggestions?
I have used ES Explorer to look in /etc/init.d to see if there is a startup file - nothing. I've also looked in /system/bin and I cannot find a ntpd file.
Any clues appreciated

Update - after I brought it into work and it seemed to lose 10 minutes, when I switch from manually setting time to network time, it now goes back 16 minutes, not 7 (so I guess it lost 9 minutes, not 10).
There is something really weird going on here.
Alan
last update.
I had an application on there called "mini network monitor". I uninstalled that, rebooted my tablet and network time seems to be working OK now.
It may just be coincidence, but it's working, so I am not messing around.
Alan
I wonder as well about how the tab gets its time info. I live in California, but was in Arizona over the weekend and it didn't switch time, but my phones corrected themselves.
If my tablet sleeps for hours on end (overnight) it will lose EXACTLY 10 minutes. I can't explain it. I just use the clock sync app

Someone pointed me here http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39951 where this issue has been know about for a while.
Is there any chance that someone who really understands how Android works could have a look inside and see what is going on?
Alan
I've noticed this too. It always happens when I wake it up after its been sleeping overnight, and it's always 10 minutes slow. A reboot fixes it immediately for me though.

Getting a replacement didn't help anything. My new one does the exact same thing.

I posted a partial "fix" in comment #111 in the bug report.
Make sure to comment and star the report so it gets Googles attention.
I use clocksync from the market. It works well. I notice the clock quickly loses its accuracy.

I can't believe it has been 5 months now and they still haven't fixed this yet.
Time zone?

Did you have it set to automatically update the time zone?
Strange,...
my n10 was from the second batch Google store had available and the clock issue has never manifested itself at all. Switched over to daylight savings time this morning perfectly! However, I've never remained stock with any update any longer than it took for me to flash a custom package of ROM, kernel, and gapps....

Automatic date/time is checked in date/time settings. It sprung forward with the time change. Now that we're on the same time as AZ I will have to wait until I travel further east later in the year to assess.
Hi I have a rooted nexus 4 and starting yesterday and continuing on to today my time has been wrong. When I check it's either ahead or behind by anywhere from 10 min to a few hours. I used ClockSync a few times to fix it, but within 30 min my time is wrong again. My date & time settings are set to automatic aswell as my time zone. Any ideas on what I should do? Should I contact my service provider (WIND Mobile)?
EDIT: I called WIND and they had no answers, just told me to take my phone somewhere to get fixed. I can just set clocksync to automatically fix my time, but I would rather not have the extra process running in the background. Anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be appreciated lol
EDIT 2: I factory reset my phone and it still hasn't fixed my time problem. Can anyone help?
