So, I wrote a simple script to test my branch by looping through rebooting the phone and asking indicator-datetime what time it thought it was.
* Wednesday's runs: 'automatic' time setting with London specified as the tzid * Thursday's runs: 'manual' time setting (as inspired by Ren's comment #8) with America/Los_Angeles specified as the tzid 1000+ reboots later, I checked the outputs to see if they always increased over time or if there were outliers that jumped to the wrong timezone. The output looked like this: > variant string " 7:40 AM" > variant string " 7:42 AM" > variant string " 7:43 AM" > variant string " 7:44 AM" > variant string " 7:45 AM" > variant string " 7:47 AM" > variant string " 7:48 AM" For these two cases, at least, It looks like this branch is working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.

It is a production BQ 4.5 phone, and I am using it in the UK where Canonical are based, so this isn't a weird edge case situation at all. I have reflashed it altogether, and upgraded yesterday to OTA-10. It has a read only filesystem. If I go to time and date, and try to change my timezone it shows Europe/London UTC+1 and below it shows the correct time ticking away with BST at the end of it. If I try to change the timezone I get the daft list of cities, selecting them now highlights them in blue rather than orange, but I can't choose any of them. I have zero clue where there might be any indication of an error log to look for. http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/phone/timezone.jpg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1567940/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
