Hi everybody @Gordon: thank you very much for your answer.
Some precisions...
setting the date/time is not saved in the nrf52832 Real Time Clock as I expected it to be.
Unfortunately the nRF52 can't keep the full time in the real-time clock when it powers off or does a hard reboot. The RTC just doesn't have enough precision.
So, when I change the Bangle.js date/time (Settings>Set Time) and, after reboot or switching it off, I loose my date/time: from where comes this replacing date/time if it is not stored in the nrf52832 RTC ?
GPS time is only checked if the watch starts and the date is still set to 1970.
So, why I can't set it manually ?
Can we have the choice to have the date/time set by user or GPS ?
Not sure I understand what you mean? You can ALWAYS set the time up using the settings menu.
Yes, but I will loose my date/time as soon as I switch off my Bangle.js.
What I mean is to have an option, in the Settings, to let the user choose between:
AUTOMATIC: the Bangle.js set the date/time alone (by GPS or using the Bangle.js App Loader via the "Set Bangle.js Time" button) or
USER: the user set the date/time and the Bangle.js keeps this date/time: if I want to be every time 5 minutes late, the Bangle.js keeps those 5 minutes late even if I reboot it or switch it off.
In all cases, thank you, thank you, thank you for the Bangle.js and the time you give to us answering all our claims.
