Hi, want to know if any of you have had this problem.

My clock sets back one hour precisely on random occasions, i've tried to think if i've made anything special with the phone on those occasions but can't think of anything i did that might have triggered the clock to set back.
(No connections to internet nor computer or anything like that)

It happened a lot more frequent before, can't recall if it was this phone or my P900 it happened to back then though.

Can anyone give me a hint?

The "Update system time" is set to never and the daylight saving (summertime) box is unchecked.

What could possibly be wrong? I know it's not me accidentally unlocking the key (and only setting the time back exactly one hour) because it's happened when the phone's been resting on a table as well.
Horribly annoying thing, especially since I don't wear a watch and keep coming one hour late every now and then.

Thanks!

I have the same problem.
Updating to the latest firmware should solve your problem.

it isn't, try coming one hour late and blaming that your clock sets itself back one hour every time you have an appointment to make

try to put your location and your time to London,GMT. not any country(make your local time is GMT as if it is the time of your city)..

I'd check if the location settings are correct, since the phone gets a timestamp (that can be used for setting the clock) every time it connects to a base station. wrong location (and therefore also time zone) might cause the clock to behave weirdly.

check to see if the phone only goes back an hour after you sync with a PC. If so then turn of the feature of the pc suite to automatically sync time with PC
