time

I am developing an app, and from time to time I am getting this weird message:

W/SystemClock(11814): time going backwards: prev 9003590393023(ioctl) vs now 9003584533648(ioctl), tid=11856

what does it mean? why does it happen?

thanks!

Why did my time go back on my phone?

Your Android phone will automatically check the network for the correct date and time and switch on its own overnight, changing the system time so that things like calendars and alarms will still be correct.

Presumably your device's clock was synchronized with another source (NITZ, SNTP, etc.), and it happened to be that your device was running fast.
