Aura showing wrong time
Anyone having an issue where their Aura shows the wrong time? From day one my Aura has been showing 15 minutes behind actual time. When I try to adjust it, it would appear that there is no way to do so as it seems to take it's time from the internet. I tried connecting it to a couple different wifi networks but I still have the same issue.

It's obviously not a major problem but it would be nice if it showed the proper time.

Any ideas?

Jeff

The time isn't really set by the internet (tho it kinda corrects it as long as you are actually connected, i believe). There is a place to set it.

Go into settings, go into "Date and time"...touch the panel that lists "time"....change the time and click "set". This can also be done with the date and time zone, if either of those are ever wrong....say when travelling.
(If you already did all the following with wifi on, turn off your wifi...but it shouldn't make a difference.)

Haha...wow....feel kinda stupid. As soon as I saw on thebotttom of the screen that it said time was set by the internet I didn't even attempt to change it.

Thanks for the help. I'll go stand in the corner feeling shame for a bit.
