How to Set TIME and DATE with an Android Smartphone or Tablet:
● An OTG cable is required for this process.
● For More steps refer to the OTG cable guide on spycentre.com
*OTG Cable Sold Separately. Purchase one on our website for $19.99 Part #4159*
● Go to your Device Storage and look for the External Memory. Inside will be all the files
that you can click on in order to review what was captured.
● In order to set the time and date the first step is creating the date_time.cfg file
● Create a
New text document
in the
Notepad App
● Input the date in Year Month Day Hour Minute Second format and the time in 24 Hour
format, as well as the extra E22 and 12 0s
●
Example
: 2024 06 15 13 30 11E22000000000000
● This would be 06/15/2024 at 1:30:11pm
● To save the file, choose “Save As” choose “text file” and name the file
date_time
● Once saved the next step is to locate where the file is saved at, once located the file
needs to be renamed.
● Rename the file
date_time.cfg
● By adding the .cfg will convert the file into the format needed for time and date.
● Select the date_time.cfg file again and choose
Move/Transfer
so that the file can be
moved to the recorder
● Open the
Files
app and open the connected device
●
Move/Transfer
the date_time.cfg file into the folder directly
next to
the Time Setup
program
● The folder should now have the following
○ Version Folder
○ Voice Folder
○ Time Setup Program
○ date_time.cfg
Note: If the Time Setup Program is not present the time will not work.
● Now disconnect the device from the smartphone and create a new recording to import
the corrected time and date stamp
● When the device is connected again to the smartphone the date_time.cfg file should no
longer be present indicating the device has accepted the new time and date
