840143 - Doing a tap on "Data & Time" menu entry reset the timezone offset. (tz_select.js:139 in dt_getStatusSuccess: Initial TZ value: UTC+08:00)

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Settings, defect)

Description

[Nicolas B. Pierron [:nbp] {away}]

STR:
 - Open Settings app.
 - Tap on "Date & Time"
 - Check "Set automatically"
 note: when not set automatically I have the following info:
    Date: 02/11/2013
    Time: 6:00 PM  (currently it is 10:00 AM TZ -800)
    Region: empty (Bug 831732)
    City: empty
 seen: clock is changed to 10:00 AM
 - Close the settings app.
 - Open the settings app.
 - Tap on "Date & Time"
 seen: clock TZ is reset, and the top bar block now show 6:00 PM
 logcat:
    E/GeckoConsole( 6384): Content JS LOG at app://settings.gaiamobile.org/shared/js/tz_select.js:139 in dt_getStatusSuccess: Initial TZ value: UTC+08:00

 
To get the right time back, you need to close the settings apps and try again (sometimes multiple time) to tap on "Date & Time" to disable and enable the automatic time.

Note: The manual time is not kept, but reset to GMT after using the automatic time.

Naoki - can you help us identify a regression range? That'll help Etienne's investigation.

Note: this is fixing the issue described here since we actually don't want to set the timezone every time we load tz_select.js, but it's not addressing bug 826283.

I believe bug 832144 is a dupe of this. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks!
