Automatic Network time is wrong

[Anonymous]

Hi, for some reason I have noticed today that on my HTC phone when I automatic network time is ticked it keeps defaulting the location to Iran time zone. The same applies to when my phones location is switched on. Any ideas as to why this is happening? On my home screen it says Birmingham and 16.15 when it's actually 13.15? Rather annoying. Any help would be appreciated.

Location services should set it to where it's being used.

If you open Google Maps and let it find you, where does it think you are?

It thinks I'm where I am, Birmingham

It has to be something to do with that automatic time zone, everytime it's checked it goes to Iran

Check for any updates to the app or OS and try turning the phone off and on a few times to see if it starts to get it right.
Do you also have a weather app that works off location? Does that say the right place?

weather apps show right place too and tried turning the phone off etc. No updates either. Everything I have already tried. Was working fine early yesterday morning then suddenly changed from about midday onwards

Hey @Anonymous just wanted to check in to see if you've had any progress with this issue?

Have you ever stuck a custom ROM on your phone at any point?

Have your tried doing a "Hard" re-set yet?

On a HTC it should be:

• Press and hold the volume down button, and then press and hold the power button.
• Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the power and volume down buttons.
• Press volume down to select factory reset, and then press the power button.

Now wait for your phone to do the reset dance
