Okay so I have a Samsung Galaxy Proclaim with the unlimited straight talk plan. I got home tonight to find out I had no servics at the house. Not a big deal but wierd since I live a mile from a cell tower. I turned my wifi on and tried to check facebook.. well it didnt work so I tried to load a tndeer page.. it worked. Not sure why Facebook will not work and everythong else will. Now the biggie.. my phone clock has randomly decided to change to 6:13 PM..

Anyone know the number I need to call to fix this?

Okay Im beyond PO'd now.. I contacted the service people three different times. I hope and pray that none of you ever have to deal with their ignorance. I'm going to take it to Wal-mart tomorrow and see if they can help. I don't even know what to say about how pitiful their service agents are. I'm just gonna go to bed before I have a hissy fit lol

Btw.. wifi does work on the phone... In fact I sent this post from my phone

its what we call a "sun burst" or a "sun spike", being serious it happens quite often in GPS surveying receivers where you are wanting ink dot accuracy

Are you saying it is just a temporary glitch?

Different straight talk phones utilize different towers,(att, verizon, etc). Make sure your phone works on a tower that covers your area. I think wal mart has a return policy in case the phone doesn't work for your area.

Hope you get it fixed man.
I think you are the first person I have seen have any trouble with straight talk.

I am phone ignorant but after buying my son 2 of them, imho your problem is probably like the 6th word in your post. Samsung.

Good luck !
