Sorry guys, but nobody seems to answer in the Q&A thread and it got lost, starting a new thread.
I bought the Xperia Ray a week ago and it doesn't take date and time values from GSM provider ("Use network-provided values"). It doesn't pick the date, time and timezone Tried this in Bulgaria and Germany. AFAIK Bulgarian providers support this, cause my Wildfire never had a problem. My GF's wildfire also picked up the correct timezone in Bulgaria, although it did not in Germany.
Additionally, when I dropped it (I drop phones A LOT, that's why I don't buy expensive toys) and assembled it back, it forgot date and time, and did not pick them from the network. I saw other people complain about it, but nobody came up with a solution. RTC check says OK.
Besides that, some third party switches like Extended controls don't work for GPS and data traffic. Normally if I click the GPS in the settings, an annoying SE-customized popup comes that warns me about charges that may apply etc. and I need to click Agree. I suppose that's why EC gps toggle sends me to the GPS menu instead of toggling the GPS. Any way to get rid of the popups?
The Ray is running stock Gingerbread (yet ), the .62 build.
Next question will be if it's worth updating to ICS when it gets released for my operator. My Asus EEE pad ICS is a disaster and I don't want to regret updating the Ray too
