Often after reboot time is wrong, and to set it again switching set-time-automatically off and back on and rebooting seems to help (but perhaps just rebooting would help too).

I can't reproduce this bug on today's Aries. I have a SIM and Wifi connected, time set to my timezone during FTU (it should not have shown timezone selection during FTU when I have a SIM, but SIM detection have been slow in past months), and after reboot (several times) it still showed the right time. Leaving qawanted for others to attempt.

Just retested on foxfooding (Sony) phone. I live in Finland so it should be ~2:10am here, but after reboot phone has time 11:10 pm (yesterday). Rebooting again doesn't help, but going into the settings and switching off Set_Automatically time and setting it back on and reboot helps.
Did you set your timezone correctly? So that enabling 'Set Automatically' will auto set the time for you? Also, what is your build ID? We have a lot of time related bugs currently open, but none that reproduces in the way that you described (maybe).
Flags: needinfo?(jmercado)
Timezone can be set manually only when Set_Automatically is off, and yes, it is right, Europe/Helsinki (UTC+3)
Could you set the time back to 'set auto' AFTER you have set the correct timezone, and then reboot and see if time is correct? Do you have a SIM as well as internet connection? Also when you see time wrong the next time, could you go into Clock app and see if time is correct there?
I do have a SIM and I use only 3G/4G data connection, not wifi with the phone. (In Finland 3G/4G data plans are unlimited and rather cheap and 4G works almost everywhere, so there isn't really need for wifi use.) Setting time manually and then enabling automatic time and rebooting seems to give the right time. If I then keep Set_Automatically on and reboot, the time is again wrong.
And now after latest FOTA update the situation is even worse. After switching off and on the automatic time and rebooting, time is correct for awhile, but then it changes and is wrong. Going into the settings and switching automatic update off and back on helps.
Definitely worse now (managed to oversleep today because of this). The easiest way to reproduce here is to - open Settings->Date&Time - switch off and off 'Set automatically' (time is now right) - swipe from top and switch on flight mode (the airplane icon) - switch off flight mode - Time becomes right time - 3h.

Hi Olli, Can you Please provide your exact REPRO Steps, because so far, I cannot Repro this issue, and the Automatic mode is already bugged, and is a known issue. STR: 1) Flash Aries to latest build. 2) Upon Restart, set the time manually to the correct time, zone, and date. 3) Restart the Device, and observe the Time, Zone and Date. 4) Set the time to Automatic, Restart the Device. 5) Observe that the Time, Zone and Date. NO REPRO per these builds when using these Steps: RESULT: When set time manually upon starting the phone, restarting (reboot), setting to automatic and restarting the phone again, the time, date, and zone remain correct .

Olli if you could also provide your build variables that would be useful. QA has seen a lot of issues where the automatic time incorrectly uses a wrong timezone that can be fixed/broken again by manually changing the timezone to be correct/incorrect and renabling automatic time. However if that is the problem you are seeing we aren't unerstanding that and there are actually multiple bugs already made on this issue. Mahendra we have not reproduced this issue as we understand it so we cannot confirm what build it reproduces on.

I'm using the default dogfooding builds. Just updated OTA, and the issue is still there.
Is there some way to debug the time-setting sequence? Could smaug's cellular network be sending something we don't expect? Gregor, who knows about time-related things these days?

Gregor - I'm trying to reproduce, but the settings app crashes as soon as I touch Date & Time (using latest master). Sigh.

debug version of the app crashes. non-debug seems to work fine. I don't have a SIM in my phone and it seems to work properly whether on Auto or Not after a reboot.

Just a note I also tried to reproduce this on a nightly aries-eng build and I could not reproduce. I tried both with an without a SIM. Wifi was on. As soon as I change back to automatic (step 4 above), the correct time is shown. Rebooting doesnt change it. Also setting an incorrect time, and leaving automatic off, the incorrect time i set stays set.
(In reply to Ken Chang[:ken] from comment #18) > Samael, can this bug be fixed by your solution on bug 1209892? If you're noticing automatic timezone bring you to UTC+0, it's highly possible to be related to bug 1209892. Comment 14 looks so to me. We should keep track after the solution for bug 1209892 landed.
Flags: needinfo?(sawang)
Note, I'm not using wifi connection, always 3G/4G connection. And I'll test this again once bug 1209892 lands. Until that, keeping 'Set automatically' off seems to at least prevent random time changes.
I run into the same problem after flashing my flame to the latest nightly build 2.5. Step to reproduce 1. Before reboot: data is on, automatic time setting is off, time is 10:37, date is 26.10.2015 After reboot: data is on, automatic time setting is off, time is 03:48, date is 29.01.2015 Step to reproduce 2. Before reboot: data is off, automatic time setting is off, time is 10:44, date is 26.10.2015 After reboot: data is off, automatic time setting is off, time is 03:52, date is 29.01.2015 24-hours time format used.

We've phased-in the solution of bug 1209892 today. Would you like to build an image with latest code and give it a try?

Is that a typo or seriously your device date changed to 29.01.2015? That's too surprising.
Nope, it's not a typo. As you can see, I've ran this test during filling the bug. I flashed the fresh 2.5 yesterday and now date is going to be set to 01.02.2015 each time after reboot :)
(In reply to Artem Polivanchuk from comment #28) > date is going to be set to 01.02.2015 each time after reboot :) This sounds hardware RTC failure to me. Does "adb shell dmesg | grep -i rtc" show anything irregular?
This is a regular output with my flame-kk, BTW: > $ dmesg | grep -i rtc > [ 0.181609] RTC time: 2:47:10, date: 10/22/15 > [ 0.553439] rtc_cmos 00:02: RTC can wake from S4 > [ 0.553553] rtc_cmos 00:02: rtc core: registered rtc_cmos as rtc0 > [ 0.553577] rtc_cmos 00:02: alarms up to one month, y3k, 242 bytes nvram, hpet irqs > [ 0.564535] rtc_cmos 00:02: setting system clock to 2015-10-22 02:47:11 UTC (1445482031)

On Flame, it's known and won't be fixed (see bug 1069863 and duplicates). Let's focus on the possible bug in Aries here please.

Hi Olli, have you tried if the fix of bug 1209892 helps?

bug 1209892 is not yet in any (F)OTA, right? I use Aries as my main phone, so would prefer to not test local builds.

Not sure why it was changed to Gaia::System if all the time/date related changes are deep in Gonk...

Got just an (F?)OTA update and so far haven't managed to reproduce this bug anymore.
Thanks smaug! Lets reopen if it shows up again.
