AC Question

I live in the UK. I have a MotoG3 phone and an Acer Iconia tablet. I travelled to South Africa. Now the tablet thinks I am in Paracambi, near Rio del Janeiro, South America. So the clock is also 5 hours behind. I have tried to override the location, but it seems to be taking the instruction from somewhere and everything I try fails. Any suggestions welcome!
 
Welcome to the forum. The first thing I would do is reset the clock to your correct time zone. Not sure what you mean by 'override the location, but I have had very good luck with an app named GPS Test. I would install that, or similar, and have it reset your GPS location. Hopefully that will get you back on track.
