Not just the clock, on the notification bar as well. On the unlock bar and everywhere time can be displayed on the phone, shes showing about 30 minutes before hand. ive tried restarting my phone and waiting like a min or so 3 times and it didnt work!

Any suggestions??? tthanks
 
Mine has done it twice since the maintenance update. Both times it was off by about 10 hours or so. I did a battery pull and the problem was fixed.
 
What clock widget are you using?

I was using Simi and it kept giving me the wrong time, removed the widget,but not the app and added beautiful widget and now it's fine.

Maybe remove and add again? Or try a different clock widget.

Thanks bro duder. Seemed to work, at least for now. Its been about 6 hours and its kept up with time
 
Same thing with mine. 10 Hours off yesterday. Silly thing thought it was in Estonia. Did three battery pulls. Within a few minutes it would lose its place and time again. Called Sprint. They did a network reset of some type on my phone OTA. Its seems to be OK now. But I bitched big time about the crap they threw in the update. Warned them about what happened to Microsoft when they tried this trick of giving you applications you cant uninstall. Cost them big $$$ when they pulled this prank on users. Sprint tech I talked to said she was going to management because she agreed with me about the bloatware potential liability.

Yeah, mine said it was in like comumbia or something. The battery puul has worked so far, more then a day now
 
Similar thing happening on my Sprint HTC Evo, for several months now. Every few days, the time changes dramatically, about 8-12 hours, and the location changes to places I admit I'm not sure where they are! Goes away with a reboot, but annoying, particularly when using phone as alarm!

I think these changes are the result of someone from that region hacking into our phones and that they haven't bothered to turn off some of the apps that display where their current location is. Anyone else think so? Is this documented anywhere?

(Note previous msg with location changed to Estonia -- hacking capital of the world.
