Hello Robert,

Please check if the phone is displaying right date and time. If not go to the Settings---> Date and Time---> Enable Automatic update of date and time. Enable automatic time zone.

Try sending the messages, you'll be able to seee the sent messages.

Hi there,
Go to Setting Then Date and Time, set your date and timezone. You can also activate automatic update after that so you dont need to set the time again and again.
Hope this helps. Rate if it works. Thanks

Your secondary battery located inside your unit which is for correct time display maybe drained. I have the same problem with my phone. After I had it replaced by a technician, my phone clock display is now working nomal. Another option if you don't want your secondary battery replaced is setting your phone to automatically detect your network's time. Go to settings, look for time and date settings and locate the automatically update time or something like that. Everytime you turn on your phone, it should automatically detect and display a correct time.

Same thing happened to me on one of the phones but if you go into display setup you can choose the wallpaper with time and date showing or without. You need to choose the - with time showing on each phone individually.

I found it on the manual, it was in programming section!

Date/Time
NOTE: Time set on handset will be transferred to the base unit automatically.
1. Make sure your phone is OFF (not in talk mode).
2. Press the menu button to go to the main menu and use cid/vol (3or4) button to scroll to Date/Time.
3. Press menu button to enter the menu. Year 2006 shows in the display.
4. Use the touch-tone pad to enter the last two digits of the current year (range: 00 to 99).
5. Press menu button to save the year setting and proceed to date setting.
6. Date 01/01 shows in the display. Use the touch-tone pad to enter two digits for current month and day respectively.
7. Press menu button to save the month/date setting and proceed to time setting.
8. Time 12:01p shows in the display. Use the touch-tone pad to enter four digits for current time and use cid/vol (3or4) button to toggle between "p" (pm) and "a" (am).
9. Press menu button to save the setting. Saved shows in the display.
NOTE: If you subscribe to Caller ID service, the current date/time is set automatically when you receive your first CID record and will override manually set date/time.

Go to your phone's "Time & date" settings and select "show", u might have your date and time hidden this time. And more thing, set the time and date first, some phones displays time and date automatically after setting...unless the user choosed to hide it...good luck! i hope this solution solved your problem.......

I have the same problem. I cannot believe I wasted $70 this stupid phone. No more RCA ever.

If you subscribe to Caller Display services, the first incoming call will set your phone's date and time automatically. Otherwise, here is how you do it.
1. press Options 2. Press * three times The display shows "Enter time/date?"
You may set both time and date or you may set either of them separately

TO SET BOTH 1. Press # when the display shows "*=Next #=Enter" 2. Wait for each prompt. You will be asked to enter: - the time - am or pm - SAVE - the month - the day, and  - SAVE (Enter the hour, day, and month as two-digit numbers. For example, enter 02:15 for 2:15, 05 for May and 08 for the 8th of the month.)
TO SET ONLY THE DATE 1. Press # when the display shows "*=Next #=Enter" 2. Press * when the time appears 3. Enter the month and day when prompted. 4. Press SAVE
I have a question for you: Can you give me the specs of the AC adapter for this phone (usually written on the adapter)? 1. What is the OUTPUT in volts (V)? 2. What is the OUTPUT in milliamperes (mA)?
3. What is the polarity (i.e. is the + sign in the center of the jack or on the exterior)?
(The wall plug transformer has a diagram depicting two circles with the inner circle representing the center conductor. A line coming from the inner circle will show a minus (-) or a plus(+) symbol to let you know the polarity of the center conductor.)
Thanks!
