Time bug on iPhone 5c - iOS 8.1.3

If you did a factory restore and the issue persists then I would bring it to Apple for servicing

And no - have not seen that issue reported widely

(1017)

I've only seen this reported a few times, and it is generally a hardware issue. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar.

With all due respect ManSinha & ChrisJ4203, in my research efforts to resolve this very same issue...there's bookoos of folks reporting the same problem. I've seen several posts before and after the 8.1 update. The clock issues reported after the update are exactly the same. The clock will not stay on the correct time, bluetooth not working and wi-fi connection unstable. Most everyone has gone through the same troubleshooting efforts and still was unable to resolve the issue. The ones that have taken it to an Apple Store after all else failed only to be told they will have to fork out the money for a new phone! That's not the answer you want to hear when you are still paying for the **** thing..this happened to mine 5 days after the manufacturer's warranty expired. There is most definitely an issue with the hardware but Apple will not accept the responsibility for these crappy phones and replace them like they should. That really ***** when I'm on my second iphone, my husband has one and our Ipad..I'm ready to tell Apple to shove their crappy phone and even crappier customer service up their ... well, you know. Apple has definitely gotten so wealthy they don't feel they have to support their products because they're banking on their popularity keeping them rolling in the money...but consumers won't put up with it too much longer...their products are getting worse and worse and other manufacturers are making theirs better and better..but until Apple gets off their butts and do something about it..we're just stuck with a crappy phone that shows yesterday's date, no bluetooth, no maps or calendar that works and unstable wi-fi on our friggin' high priced piece of crap! Nice job, Apple! I've learned my lesson..Samsung is looking pretty **** good right about now!! Good luck to the rest of the folks trying to get something done on their phone.

I have a 5c from Verizon and have had the same issues. First, the clock and bluetooth and then texts and calls weren't working. Verizon was no help and told me I could buy a used phone until my upgrade and I haven't tried the genius bar yet because I'm expecting the same answer. I ended up downgrading to an old 4 until my upgrade in September which ***** because it's so slow! haha

Anyone get this problem resolved?

Take the device to Apple. Verizon does not do warranty work, however text and call problems are a carrier issue. The Genius Bar should be able to tell you if you have experienced a hardware issue.

Did you have your problem fixed? if so, how? I have an Iphone 5C with same issue, BT, Wifi and Clock.

I have not had the problem fixed. I haven't had a chance to go to Apple and I really don't think they will do anything besides tell me to buy a new or used device. They certainly won't replace it for free.

Hi Update software to 8.3 make sure time setting is on auto If you still have this problem you may have a bug Restore back to Factory Settings Restore over your WiFi Use same Apple ID to get Apps / Data back I do Factory restore on all my apple devices about every 2 months It makes them run like new. Cheers Brian

HI, I am currently experiencing the same problem.

I Have had this phone for a whole 107 days, this is my 5th replacement phone under warranty. All previous issues have been hardware issues that have been covered under the warranty. However this phone is now 17 days out of warranty, leaving me with a useless phone!

NO time - apparently is yestersay morning still, wrong if I do it auto or manual, sp no alarm clock for me. No blu tooth, intermittent wifi & im finding It has charging issues also being tempeimental as to when it will charge or not.

this is my first ever iPhone - I certainly won't be getting another.

Bring on samsung!!

Have u found out a solution???? I really get annoying with my phone

As far as I can tell there isn't one, I have restored my phone and started as new and the issue was still there meaning it's a hardware issue. So it's broke.

Same problem here with my daughter's phone. It's a month out of 1 year warranty and we have taken it back to the Apple Store. They have said its unfixable and requires a hardware replacement for £199! Apple should recognise they are shipping crap phones and replace the unit. My daughter is now insisting on a Samsung... gone are the days when Apple = Quality.

Hi

Any phone no matter what make can fail its just bad luck

I have had 5 iPhones one failed after one day.

They get a lot of use each day.

I know £199.00 is a lot of money but young people do not want

The cheaper phones.

Cheers

I was freaking crazy and disassembled my iPod touch an destroyed it. dammit

Hey there. I GOT MY TIME PROBLEM FIXED! I bought an iPhone 5c with a problem with keeping time and the WiFi kept turning off and on repeatedly. I googled and googled and read that it is possible it's the WiFi antenna or gps antenna. I ALMOST went to get the WiFi antenna replaced but decided to call Apple before I did that. The phone was out of warranty for a year. I made an appointment and went in to the Apple store. The guy said he hasn't heard of the problem before but he said it sounds like a software issue. He wanted to do a restore on iTunes and I told him I already did that. He said the one at home is more of a very soft reset and that this reinstalls the software. He said if this doesn't fix it, you could get a replacement at $375.. (Right) anyway so he said try this and see if it works. He also said to start fresh and not to restore my phone from a backup as it could have the bug in it and I'll have the same issues.

I was so skeptical but the restore was done, I said thanks and have a nice day... I went in last night to do this, and it's now over 24 hours and it's keeping perfect time and no wifi issues.

Tl;dr take your iPhone into the Apple store and they will do a restore that is different than doing it at home and it will likely fix the time keeping problem and WiFi problem. It fixed mine.
