Sanyo MM-5600
It'd better do this.. or else
Ok, I currently have the Sanyo 5500 and have some rather strong complaints about it. When going off the Sprint network, the phone instantly forgets what time it is. Even when going from sprint to digital roaming or analog roaming, if you see the time on the phone and go off network it doesn't know what time it is. When you go into look at the calender, it'll ask you to set the time. If you turn the phone on after it being off for a few hours, it doesn't know the time. It has a backup battery for the address book, but no capacity with all it's fancy technology to keep the time. This is something that REALLY pisses me off.

I'v had my 5500 for over a year now and I also personally know 4 other people that have the 5500 and I have never heard of that problem.

The phone is not defective. When the phone goes off network it does not forget the time the. When you go to calender it is just asking you to confirm the time. By you being of network the phone doesn't know if you've witched time zones or whatever since it last talked to a digital tower. If you look at your watch when you go to calender ( or any other device that has the correct time,) the time that the phone is asking you to confirm is usually correct.
