Only thing I know of is to go to general mgmt then time and days settings and make sure the phone is set to use time and day from your carrier.. If it is you may need to touch base with them on it.

You saying you see this time and date on every screen behind apps ? Sounds like a widget your using? Can you post a screenshot?

Welcome to Android Central! Are you sure it isn't part of your wallpaper (especially if you took a screenshot to use as your wallpaper)? Try changing the wallpaper and see if that date and time go away.
