Nokia Nseries :: Automatic Time Update Is 2 Minutes Out?
Dec 23, 2012
how the automatic time update function works on the Nokia 701 and the like? Mine is enabled and seems to update when my phone connects to a data source (e.g. when retrieving email or when browsing websites) but the time retrieved seems to be about two minutes slow. Where does the phone get it's time signal from? Is this a network thing (i.e. it is Orange that is running slow) or does it obtain the time from a Nokia server?
Finally can I change the server it obtains the time from?
I've had a nokia 5800 for about 6 or 7 months now. when I got the phone I turned on the automatic time update and it kept time really well. Then it got to about november last year and suddenly it jumped ahead 1 hour. Now every morning I have to turn on auto update (since the phone wont keep time without it), let the time update, change the time back one hour and tell it I havn't changed time zones. I live in Perth Western Australia and we dont use daylight savings so I dont know what is going on with it.
Does anyone know how I can stop my Satio losing time, after a few days the time is always wrong, had a k800i and never had a problem with that, cant set the automatic time update on either because this then sets the time around 5 1/2 hours later than the actual time.
I can set the time manually just fine. But the phone isn't super accurate at time keeping so I wanted to set it to auto. But the option just isn't there.
I'm in the U.K with T-Mobile and switched from a Nokia 5530 which had the auto time option. No idea why I can't access it on this phone?
I set up a Gmail mailbox on my N86 phone using e-mail wizard (IMAP). It works fine in connecting to the Gmail, and send/receive e-mails. But my problem is with automatic retrieval; every time it wants to check my mailbox, it asks me to choose access point. That means automatically retrieval acts just like manual retrieval because if I am not there when it is trying to retrieve e-mails, it won't connect, so when I come to my phone, I just see a "Select connection" box giving me three options:
Search for WLAN Internet WAP services. My phone settings regarding to Access Point and Email configuration are as below:
Settings > Connection > Packet Data > Packet Data Connection > When Available Settings > Connection > Destinations > Internet > 1 access point (default destination)
My access point setting says "Use access point = Automatically" E-mail settings > Global settings : there is no configuration for access point or connection. The available options in this page: 1- Message list layout 2- Body text preview 3- Title dividers 4- Download notifications
E-mail settings > Mailbox settings: Mailbox settings > My email address Mailbox name. My name Signature Advanced mailbox settings. What to sync > Retrieve less than 2 KB Emails to retrieve IMAP4 folder path Folder subscriptions. When to sync > Connection daysConnection hoursUpdate intervalRetrieve when abroad.
I listed my available settings because I noticed different options in different tutorials. Even my phone's manual has some different options than my phone. I didn't list WLAN options because I don't have any WLAN network. So to make it short, I want my phone to retrieve e-mails from my GMail account automatically, without asking me about connection and access point each time. BTW, my phone's web browser works fine, and makes connection when needed without asking me about the access point to use. I hope someone can suggest me a solution because I like this e-mail application in my new phone, but it is strange to me that it cannot use the default access point and always needs to ask me.
whenever i start some of my phone applications, like web, make a call, receive a call, start maps, my phone automatically switches off even if the battery is full. And when i restart my phone, it switches off again after displaying the nokia logo or just after the main screen is displayed. The same process continues repeatedly. Is my N8's battery not working correctly?
I use Nokia N72-5 hanset but now it is problem to me to operate with it. It became switched off after turning on. I removed memory card , and turn on but it switched off after 15-16 minutes. i reset its firmware bu dialing *#7370# but it didn't help. It became switched off after 15-16 minutes even withouting pressing any key on keypad.
I want to know if there is a way to disable the automatic ambient light detection which adjusts the screen brightness according to the environment you are in.I use the Nokia 700 with Symbian Belle, and I cannot see an option to disable it. Most devices with the sensor can disable it. Android of course, but even Apple device can! This is blasphemy! Apple having greater customisability than Nokia?
I've been using my Nokia C5-00 for about a year now without any problems. Recently however, it started to show wrong time (like it was going too fast). The offset is usually about 15-30 minutes forward. Initially I thought that its just few seconds per minute faster than it should be (like a normal mechanism watch) and I tried to explain it with processor clock being somehow off, but I noticed that it must at one point just skip these several minutes.
I've never spotted this "skipping" explicitly but it happens once per 10-15 hours, I guess. E.g. it shows proper time the whole day and when I go to sleep but next morning its off several minutes. It happens both with automatic time update On and Off. I haven't updated my software for a couple of months now, but the one I got is up to date (according to Ovi).
How can I select highest resolution on automatic mode and scenes mode? It looks like some inportant function is missing. The creative mode is really hard to use. I perfer automatic and scenes mode which is easiler for me but I want it to be the best resolution is there any way because I couldn't find the setting?
I have the iphone 4S, and have had trouble with the automatic date/time and my ical reminders/appt. I live in Phoenix but the default time zone is Cupertino, and that doesn't change unless I switch it to manual. So after inputing events and reminders, and then have daylight savings happen, ( 1 hour difference between Phoenix and Cupertino) all my events/reminders changed that 1 hour as well. Is there any way to fix this without using the manual time zone function?
I know many 1320 users don't have the option for automatic time settings. I have it, but it is useless. I noticed my time was messed up while it was on, so I did a test. I changed the time 5 minutes back, and I turned on the automatic setting. I have data and location on. I checked an hour later, my time is still off the Microsoft server time with 5 minutes. Nothing happens.
Suddenly, the phone's clock started showing a time that was offset by two hours for my local time.
I deselected automatic time zone and auto date/time and set them manually. If I return it to automatic, it will show my precise location but the timezone and local time would be offset by two hours (earlier, not later).
Currently, I have auto date/time and selected my time zone automatically. It shows the right date and time but the screen showing my current position still shows the clock two hours behind.
There is a setting to enable the RAZR to automatically keep its time correct by syncing with a time server somewhere on the internet. When I checked the time on my RAZR against my PC, where I have a service that sets the time from an atomic clock, I found that the RAZR was off by more than 14 seconds. I disabled the option and instead installed an app called "ClockSync" that sets the correct time. Unfortunately, the automatic time update setting is required by Verizon in order to login to My Verizon Mobile, so I either give up checking my data and call usage or I give up accurate time. This is very annoying. Can we get Verizon to use a reliable time server instead of whatever they are using now?
Okay, the night between the 29th and 30th of October meant adjusting for day light saving. Before I went to bed, I set the clock back one hour and made sure that the phone had all automatic time changes OFF since I've had problems before with this (only with Nokia, worth mentioning). On the morning of the 30th, my collegue calls me and wonders if I am at work. Turns out the stupid phone set the time back one hour as well without informing that such a thing would happen! I was one hour late for work and it was all because of the phone! Why did it not say that automatic time changes was planned to occur? And why did it change it even though all automatic changes was turned off?
Under Settings > security and screen lock > automatic lock, it gives options from 5 to 10 minutes, and 'maximum'. - this is the time the screen actually after going to sleep.
I had the Storm and along with the automatic date and time stamp, I used to be able to name a picture I took . It's disappointing that I can't do this with an iPhone. It's a very convenient feature for my job. Are there plans to add this feature? Are there any apps that will do this. It's frustrating to have this great phone and not be able to do something so simple and convenient.
My daughter locked her iPhone 4s and can't remember the pass code. We plugged it into the PC and backed it up/synced phone which reset the automatic time delay, but doesn't unlock it.
I recently updated my daughters iPhone 5C to IOS 8.1.1, but now the time and date is off. I 've tried to turn off "Set Automatic Time" based on cellular info, and set the time manually, but after a minute or so, the time is way off Again (as in several hours). Also it's to days behind now. Nothing happens when i switch the Automatic Time on Again.Â
I've tried to hardware reset the phone, reinstall the OS via PC, and change the time Zone, but nothing seems to Work.
why does my n8 freeze up? i have no apps open and i go to open my photos then click on photo to open it and the screen goes black and theres nothing?? also i have to recharge it like 2 or 3 times a day, even when im not using it?? **bleep**!! is my n8 a dud?? all this started the day i bought it brand new
Does anyone know how to change the automatic power saving time on a K850i? My phone seems to go into this mode too fast and I can't seem to find any option to increase the time.
My Nexus 6 has random restarts about once per day. The most frustrating thing about it is that it takes 1:45 minutes (105 seconds) to reboot. It's the same length of time when I turn the phone off and boot it by hand. Is this normal? Can a few of you do me a favor and measure how long it takes on theirs?
