hi i am just wondering if anyone knows why my clock is 5 minutes too fast when it is set to automatic. if i take automatic off i can set it differently but as soon as i put it back on it jumps 5 minutes in front. just wanted to know if other people have this problem. on the upside im never late for anything if only nokia's clocks were set like this we might have flash 10 by now!

Automatic syncs with your cell provider's tower time (usually) so that would indicate that the local tower's time is what is off.

I had the same problem, my clock was always about 2mins ahead.
So I downloaded OpenNTPD, works perfectly.

Maybe our N900's just want us to be on time?

Same problem: 5 minutes to fast when setted on automatic, so this is a problem of our device.
