Windows Phone date and time
-
I've just received my 4th or 5th Windows Phone. I do like them. Except for the Date and Time -> Set Automatically, which it does but never to the correct time, usually 2-3 mins out. So as per usual I've had to turn this off and set it manually every couple of weeks. Has anyone else had this problem?

How do you know it is the phone that is wrong?
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
I compare it with the time on my PC which also is exactly the same as the that on Sky News on the TV above me. The discrepancy holds when I compare the time on my phone to that in the Railway station. I think its the phone, but I guess it could be a conspiracy.

No, no, not at the same time. One after another. My last one was the Lumia 1020 with 41megapixel camera. That was a thing of beauty but I left in a pub by the dartboard and never saw it again. New one is the 1520 which is just huge. And beautiful.

I had a windows phone and I also experienced the time issue. My phone was always 30 minutes out. I would change the time from a reliable source and before the day was out it would slip back to being 30 minutes out. In the end I was so used to it being that far out I just left it.

Just looked at the specs, that thing is bigger than the Note 4. Does it come with all the crap ware that samsung inflict on their phones and do you need to "root" them to clean it out?

Not really, it comes with some preloaded Nokia apps, but these are rather good in general and a good reason to choose Nokia over a rival Windows phone. Anything you don't like you just uninstall. It's a really good phone, charges wirelessly and is great for my big clumsy fingers. The only criticism is when using as a phone it's almost got comedy value due to its size.

Yeah I have a Note 1 but then I'm not a small bloke and it is in proportion. I will need to upgrade shortly and am considering the wp mainly because I don't need to hack into it to get at parts of the system. The lack of a really good GPS navigation system is the only detraction, I use syzig and it is excellent on android.

Well, if you mean a thing to get you (in car) from A to B, the Nokia app is very good. Well better than my TomTom anyway. And its got live traffic on it to reroute you.
