Nope. Unfortunately, you can't do it without root. Sucks, too, because the time on the AT&T network (which my phone uses) is fscked. It's generally off by at least 45 seconds. Given the availability of SNTP servers, including the ones at NIST, that's inexcusable for a major interexchange carrier (IXC). There is one thing you can do, though: write a digital clock app that sets its time from an SNTP server (use a Stratum 2, not a Stratum 1 like NIST). Pick one from the following link that's closest to your location (one that's OpenAccess, of course). http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/StratumTwoTimeServers You still won't be able to SET the time, but at least you'll be able to display the time. Just remember not to update too often...you shouldn't need to. Just update every now and then to check the offset relative to your system clock, and go from there. Hope this helps.....
