I just purchased this camera 7 days ago. The version is 20160905V2.3. But it still has the time zone issue. My time zone is GMT -7:00(one hour Daylight saving time). When I set it to GMT -7:00, the time shows 3 hours before my time. For example, it should be 18:00, but it shows 15:00. I have to set it to GMT -10:00 to get correct time. But this leads wrong date. I saw many users have this issue. Please fix it. Thanks.

Reproducing steps:

The GPS signal is no signal.My time zone is GMT -7:00(one hour Daylight saving time).

a. connected with car power adapter, turn the key to ACC on.

b. enter setting, set time: -07:00 04/02/2017 18:40:32.

c. unplug car power adapter, after several seconds, plug in again.

d. now you could see the time is 04/02/2017 15:40:32. It should be 04/02/2017 18:40:32.

Great! I almost gave up. If there is a release, please let me know.

Welcome back!

Unfortunately, the time zone bug just got worse. While (+) offsets seem to work, (-) ones do not.

Hi Lacibaci,
we re-test the 4.20 firmware and confirmed there is a big bug in the timezone setting. will check carefully and rework in 2 days.
Thanks for point this problem. :)

I flashed this firmware. It got worse. It can keep time after powering on. But the GPS time sync change the time to 03:11:15. It should be 19:11:15. Now the offset became bigger.
 
It really shows how bad the GPS interference is :(
we test the smaller 18*18*4mm antenna in 903 GPS, which improved the GPS signal several DBs. (there are more blank area around the GPS PCB which insulate more interference.)
if you can get such a smaller GPS antenna, you can have a try.
just make sure the wider side of the Argentine is close to microUSB sockets.
