K3 clock never adjusts

Snorkledorf · 09-15-2010, 02:43 AM

My Wifi K3 arrived two weeks ago and it's a dream! The only problem is that the clock is way off: it's set to UTC.

My old K2 used 3G to adjust itself based on where I was located, but on the K3 I've been stuck with a 9 hour time difference since day 1. I'm in Japan, not Reykjavik...

(For that matter, how does it normally determine where in the world I happen to be, if all it has is Wifi? IP address or something?)

Any ideas?

Forgive me for asking an obvious question, but are you not able to use the "Device Time" item on the "Settings" page to adjust the clock?

LOL, oh look, there are three pages of settings! Whaddaya know? I'd never noticed that before, only saw the first page.

Yup, that works fine, thanks!
