Hello,
I have a landline phone from the brand Sagem, model D36c, and since I got it, I noticed that the time keeps getting out of sync by itself. There is always a 2-hour difference, and it’s quite annoying to have to reset it all the time. I’ve looked through the menu, and I haven't found anything that could fix this. Thank you for your help if you know...

Well, if it can speak to you,
I just sent an email to some friends, here's a copy of it:

Morette, this email is more for you
So there you go,
This is the 7th cordless landline phone with a base (2 or 3 handsets connected) that I buy and return to the store, with the brands being SIEMENS (1), ALCATEL (1), and PHILIPS (3)
I can believe that a software manufacturer creates a calendar management system on a chip, for example, that different suppliers integrate into their products.
But I suppose there isn't just ONE developer handling the calendar management for all these landline phones??
The time displayed on my handsets is crazy. It randomly loses two hours.
You might say that I just need to add two hours to the current time?
Well no, in that case, at an irregular interval, it will lose 4 hours, etc., and the same if I take hours away!!
I thought it could be the wifi waves from my Access point (I absolutely need to find a reason :-) but it's off, and honestly, that would be a rather curious reason since it's not the base but a handset that manages the date/time.
Then, there's only the RJ11 connectivity (the phone cable) that is connected to the livebox but that has of course nothing to do with it, since the livebox, like any box, sends and receives analog signals just like plugging a rotary phone into the good old PSTN.
So where does it come from???

Yes, hello, I also have this problem. When I receive a call, the time on my phone shifts back by an hour. After searching and looking at forums, the error is simple: you just need to disable caller ID. I plan to call Orange to find a solution, but so far they haven't found one. Yesterday, I spent an hour on the phone with them just bringing back the Livebox and the phone to test compatibility. There you go, and my phone is a Siemens Gigaset S795.
