My Moto X used to match time well, but has slowed to a full 5 minutes behind. I thought all cell phones synced time with the network, but maybe not. I'm on ATT & my wife's S4 clock is correct & matches all other "credible sources ".

Has anyone else noticed this or have a fix?

For comparison to the forum post time of this message:
Moto X time at posting 6:28 EST
Wife's S4 time at posting 6:33 EST

My 2013 Moto X lost its Date & Time settings a couple of times in the past month or so. Just went to Settings > Date & Time and re-checked the automatic options, and all is well again.

Check the phones settings, most phone have an auto sync and manual, make sure it is set on automatic, then perhaps, do a power off and then turn back on.

That was it, thanks. My automatic date & time was unchecked. I looked for time settings before posting & somehow overlooked the menu option.

Might be a bug, seems like this can occasionally happen on its own.
