I'm so glad that someone is still concerned about this issue. I don't understand how to reset the RTC. It seems like changing it should be a simple peek/poke type operation. I feel like (I have nothing to back this up) there's a bit of code that's not allowing the RTC to be reverted to an...

Agree 100%....until the year 2100....when all PS3's stop allowing manually setting the date from the XMB and Skynet starts sending drones to harvest CELL processors. (Cyberdyne would have discovered how invaluable they were to their research with the 8th SPE enabled by that time). Your AI reply...

I feel like I'm cross-posting here, but my suggestion is to use webMAN MOD 1.47.46 to soothe your OCD while the powers that be work on an easy fix to restore the RTC values to default. I'm curious to see how it works in your situation if you don't mind trying it.

This console is banned from PSN and unable to connect to the time server. Maybe I should have mentioned that :orange: When I get to "Then set the date/time via Internet" step, it returns "The current date and time could not be obtained. (80710016)" -update- I've switched to webMAN MOD version...

Thank you for taking notice of my seemingly unique problem. I have tried more experiments and can confirm that uninstalling webMAN fixes my clock issue. The system will hold the correct time and date after a reboot. However, with webMAN uninstalled, if I apply Evilnat's CBOMB fix, the time and...

Regarding my battery, I left my console unplugged for 24 hours and it never asked me to set the time and date. I assume it has a marginal charge. It only asked for time and date on initial setup, and those values do not survive a reboot once webman mod is installed without ever using webMAN's...

"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance."

That would be one way. Another would be disassembling and removing and testing the battery (nobody wants to do that if they don't have to). If the CBOMB fix has been applied, perhaps those things I suggested do not apply in any meaningful way in regards to resetting the date and time. I dream of...

I feel your pain. I am also in the naughty chair, sitting with broken clock heartburn. Fairly certain that your fix will be my fix too. I have a feeling that the devs are working on this. Nobody wants a crocked clock. Watching this thread as well as mine to see what ...develops.

I have exhausted every combination I can think of to get the clock to hold the current time after a reboot. If it helps any, this PS3 was running PS3ita 4.65 DEX prior to my disaster. Disabling plugins in cobra is the only thing that makes it behave "normally", as in it will hold the clock...

Hopefully Evilnat can answer that for you. The Webman clock fix is at least partially based on Evilnat's fix, so I'm not sure why you would want to use both.

If I press it once, i see "Date and time fixed" if I fumble around and accidentally press it twice (for debugging purposes, of course), it also says RTC fixed.

....1/1/2100.....I think I Y2.1K'd it. :orange:

Patching after setting the correct time and date instantly reverts it to the wrong time and date. The setting is not enabled in webman. I don't have anything else installed.

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to read my post. I recently dusted off my PS3 slim CECH2501a that had been sitting for many years and was amazed at the progress that has been made with CFW since I last played around with it. I was greeted with the need to set the time and date when I...
