I had an issue last night where my automatic time zone was adjusted forward one hour, causing my alarm to ring an hour early. A reboot didn't fix it, nor did toggling the "Automatic Time Zone" setting off/on. This same thing actually happened to me a few nights ago where my time jumped an hour ahead, but I caught it before sleeping. A coworker with a VZW S6 even had the same thing happen to him last night also!
Wondering if anybody else has experienced this before and if there is a fix besides VZWSupport's 1) power cycle or 2) power cycle with SIM remove/replace.

Hi!
- it happens randomly (while driving, overnight, during day)
- it always goes back by a random amount (from several minutes to several hours)
- it sometimes happens multiple times per day, and sometimes works fine for weeks
- i have enough of this, i always need to set up two devices to wake me up.
Any solution HTC masters?
Hey, I have the same problem... Anyone can help?
i had the same thing and nearly freaked me out BUT there is a fix:
in phone settings there is a tab GSM/UMTS services
deactivate time syncronization there and it never happens again
I switched it just like the exilkubaner said about two weeks ago, so far it never bumped back again. So I believe it works
Yup, also had the crazy thing when sometimes I woke up in the morning and my clock on the phone was at like 7pm or so.
tab GSM/UMTS services -> deactivate time syncronization did the job
It's 7:55 MDT right now but the automatic date and time refers to 6:55 MST. what's wrong?
Never mind, playing around with the settings somehow made the automatic time to DST again. That is weird though, how it suddenly does this after I wake up
Anyone else seeing this? I googled it and seems other people have been seeing it. My will jump ahead by 6 hours, if I reboot its fine again. Any fixes for it?
The only thing that springs to mind is that your Date & Time settings are wrong. Have you checked your time zone is correct? Have you switched on Automatic Date & Time?
My N5 Marshmallow loses time
I've seen this since I updated to Marshmallow. My N5 steadily loses time. Rebooting fixes it, but it starts again.
Googling, I found others with the same issue. One of the fixes suggested - of disabling Battery Optimisation for apps that work with the clock - worked for me and for a week my N5 kept perfect time.
Today after some apps autoupdated, it's started losing time again - 2 minutes in the last hour. I have to figure out the offending app and disable Battery Optimisation for it.
It's frustrating, because I like Battery Optimisation. It improves my battery life unbelievably. But losing time is not acceptable, as I rely on my phone notifications for appointments and calls.
I hope Google releases an update soon.
It looks like its an old bug so I wouldn't hold my breath.
Hi, I have an interesting issue with sleep tracking. S3 starts sleep tracking automatically. However after I wake up I usually sit down on the couch to have my cup of coffee and read news for an hour or so. I have noticed that my S3 detects this time as sleep and reports about it Is anybody having same experience? I know, this is not a big issue however...

I had sort of the opposite experience. It apparently started automatically, but stopped when I got up at 5am for a, um, waste elimination event. I was back in bed within a minute or two, but didn't go right back to sleep. While I was laying there my watch displayed a notification with the number of hours slept (signaling the end of the sleep period, I guess).
This was my first night with the watch, though. Wondering if it needs to learn my patterns?
EDIT: So ... I have to modify my observations a bit. The number I got for sleep time was from the notification that appeared on the watch. When I went into the S Health app on my phone, though, it showed the correct duration, including periods of light vs. motionless sleeping. I've attached screen shots with each of the sleep periods highlighted.
I have Nite Mode enabled & use the default on/off criterion of Sunset & Sunrise.
For the past two mornings, unlike previously, I have turned on my fone (abt 8:30am) to be surprised that apparently the Nite Mode S/W doesn't know how to tell time. Yesterday I just clicked the "Turn off" button in the notif bar. Today it happened again; & I left it to see what would happen. Nite Mode remained 'on' until about 10:15 or so - when it turned off, apparently spontaneously. I did reboot on both days to no avail.
Bootloader is still locked, so fone is not rooted.
Could it be that I locked the phone w/a Pattern to get to use the Fingerprint Feature? understand that a number of things won't take place if the fone is off & locked; still it shouldn't take > 2hrs for the Nite Mode S/W to 'see' the right time... It seems to go into Nite Mode very nicely on it's own when sunset time comes around…
Anyone else have this prob? Any ideas what may have caused it? Sprint Tech Experts had no immediate answer, & are looking into it. Got the phone June 27… TIA, oldwolf

Check your time zones or something....is your time set automatically or manually? What what time zone are you in the first place (no to get too personal...)?
@AarSyl, it doesn't matter, I haven't changed timezones I've been in ever since I activated the fone… 6/27… & it happened only the last two days; since I locked my phone w/Pattern to beable to use Fingerprint feature… I have get auto time from network provided time, & auto time zone fm network provioed time. I haven't left my home boro…

I have one on Verizon activated last Saturday. Im not 100% sure but I think it worked as expected for a day or two but then... The "sunset and sunrise" are two time zones (hours) off. Which coincidentally is the time zone of the area code of my phone number. The OOTB text message app, and some other texting apps, also show text sent time stamps in the time zone of my number, even when I send a text from the time zone I live in. Everything else on the phone seems to know the correct time zone as the phone is set to get it from the network. Including the text time received stamp. Its odd.
@anon2017, left phone off Fri aftnoon to Sat nite (a brief respite) & well pst sunset turned it back on, & it read Sunset time just fine & booted into nite mode - now to see if it properly reads sunrise Sun morn… I recently took the June security patch for my Sprint U11; so maybe that'll fix my orig issue… or I might just turn off Auto Get Time Zone fm Network, or turn off nite mode & leave auto brightness adjustments… Keep me posted pls on your results… BTW, I fell asleep this past Thu. w/out turning off fone & it switched off nite mode as expected.
So maybe h/w default behavior affects this- many things don'tork when fone is locked &I'm using Kaspersky Full which affects lock insofar as I no longer get "Your phone is encrypted- which makes me happy- bc a nasty thief could purposely go past30 bad passwords & cause my fone to be Factory Reset. Talk abt loss…
Well, it seems that taking the June security update has solved, @ least for this morning's boot-up, my prob w/nite mode staying on in the morning (nothing else has been changed).
Earlier this a.m., at the beginning of the boot process, my wallpaper seemed a bit dark immediately on startup; which wasn't making me feel like the problem was solved- however, upon completing the boot process, there was no moon icon in my notification bar & the wallpaper picture was as bright as usual!
Let's see if this will be consistent.
*Update* 7/11/17 8:11:14 seems the boot time may have something to do w/whether or not Nite Mode is turned off on bootup. I turned on fone around 6something & Nite Mode was still on… used notif par settings to turn it off & rebooted & it was now off… ?
Two days in a row- Nite mode goes off on its own…
Third day no luck; beginning to think it depends on when I boot fone…
Awesome
