Date & Time
The T-Mobile service knows the Coordinated Universal Time, or UTC. (Note that UTC is also known as Greenwich
Mean Time, or GMT.) UTC reflects the mean solar time along the Earth's prime meridian. The prime meridian is
arbitrarily based on the meridian that runs through the Greenwich Observatory outside of London, where the
present system originated.
To set your device time correctly, you must select your time zone. Note that you cannot change the Date and
Time field settings unless you are disconnected from the network (read more in
Override System Date & Time
Settings
on page 40).
