My Note 3 is suddenly a time machine?? Wrong date & time

[dfrankhaley]

Perhaps this is a Halloween trick? Today is November 5th, current time is 11:32AM Eastern Standard Time. My phone says it is November 14th and 7:20AM.

Any idea what is going on here? My phone is not rooted, so I cannot adjust date/time. Maybe Verizon is stuck in a time warp?

Thanks for any suggestions for fixing this!

Welcome to Android Central! In Settings>Date & Time, is Automatic Date and Time turned on? I don't have a Note 3--are you saying there is no option to adjust date and time manually?

Yeah, it was pretty interesting. I go to settings, date & time, turn off the sync to the server & set it manually. Then if I click on the server to point it back at the network clock it jumps ahead to November 14th.

About 10 hours later, it suddenly decided to correct itself and has been fine since. Not sure if it was channeling the future or what?

Wait, Doc ... are you telling me you built a time machine ... out of a Note 3? Whoa, this is heavy.
