iPhone 4 displays incorrect time

Settings / General / Date & Time: Set Automatically

If it's being set automatically, your carrier is giving you the wrong time. Turn it off and set it yourself.

i am getting the wrong time and wrong date with automatic setting... two phones, one is correct one is wrong... very irritating

Hello.

If you use AT&T call them by dialing 611 on your iPhone and ask the agent to push/reset the time on your phone.

I've encountered this issue on my 3G iPhone a while back and it was fixed in seconds by AT&T.

Cheers.

Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network settings took care of it for me.

I am having the same problem and settings/general/reset/reset network settings does NOT resolve the problem. AT&T customer support (611) says they do not have any way of pushing the correct time down to the phone. AppleCare suggested a backup and restore, but that also did not help.

Then I would bring the phone in for evaluation and possible exchage or repair.

gdg,
Why so logical it does not fit in well around here?

I think this issue is related to itune, it always happens to me when I connect my iphone to itune. It can be temporarily resolved by restore the device, but it will show the wrong time again as soon as you reconnect the devise. Really don’t know how to permanently resolve this issue

I'm having the same problem - mine is off by 12 minutes. I believe it is because the agency I bought it at connected it to Itunes on a PC at the store to activate it, and the clock on the PC was off by 12 minutes (I went back to the store and checked - this is the case). Unfortunately, when I synced it with my mac, the time did not reset to the correct time. If I restore it and then re-sync it, will that work? It's driving me crazy!

I have the same problem. The phone is always a few minutes behind with automatic setting.

ok.. the proble acctualy is the time zone is not match between your iphone & your Pc (when you Synchronize your iphone with your pc) . so plz make sure the time zone of your iphone & pc is match, ex. if your iphone time zone is Kuala Lumpur Malaysia, your pc time zone also must be Kuala Lumpur Malaysia.

Iphone (go to setting, then general, date & time, then set the your time zone)

PC (go to control panel, clock language & Region, Date & Time, then set your time zone same with your iphone)

after that Synchronize your iphone with your pc..

then you will never face the same problem again.
gud luck

No way. This does not help me. My time is going forward for 15 seconds after automatic sync and any actions (inclusive reset network settings) make no effect...

I am having this problem too. I just noticed it yesterday. I'm on a brand new iPhone 4 that was swapped out in store Saturday because my other one had wifi issues. I have verified that the time zone is correct but setting auto time on always forces clock to be 5 minutes fast.

I'm also having the same problem.
The clock of my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.1) is 2 min late whenever the time is automatically set.

My Macbook does not have the issue, so it is not due to the sync. Reseting the network params does not solve the problem.

So what's up?
Can somebody tell if this is a software bug or a hardware problem?
If iOS 4.2 does not solve the issue I'll bring my iPhone back to the reseller.
