HARDWARE: Xperia 10 II - Dual Sim
UI LANGUAGE: Finnish
REGRESSION: yes

DESCRIPTION:

Gallery app show incorrect time compared to the file name

PRECONDITIONS:

Take a photo with the built-in camera app

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Take a photo with the built-in camera app
2. Go into gallery, select the photo and press [i] on top-left
3. The file name shows that the photo was taken fe. “20240521_163610.jpg”, but the date below shows 19:36, 21.5.2024 which is incorrect

EXPECTED RESULT:

Correct time to be shown (fe. 16:36 in the previous example)

ACTUAL RESULT:

Creation date is shown +3hours later than the actual creation time

MODIFICATIONS:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

Tried rebooting the phone, didn’t help.

Another example with incorrect time between file name and the date-line below:

Same here on Xperia 10 II, in my case, timestamp is 2 hours ahead of FilePath time stamp.

I see this too on 4.6.0.11 / X10III. Time zone configuration on the device is Finland/Helsinki (automatic time and time zone update are enabled) and the date/time shown in Gallery app is 3 hours ahead of the actual capture time (which is correct in both the file name/timestamp and photo EXIF data within the jpg).

Same here. Gallery probably thinks the time is in UTC and does unnecessary timezone conversion.

[attah]

That’s odd, since the Exif data contains a timezone.

[laustela]

Still happens in 4.6.0.12

Still here on Jolla C2 with 5.0.0.43

Might be the same issue as this:

SMS received time displayed has false timezone adjustment

REPRODUCIBILITY: 100 OS VERSION: 4.6.0.15 HARDWARE: X10 III UI LANGUAGE: Enlish REGRESSION: Yes DESCRIPTION: When an SMS is received, the time displayed says “in 12 hours”. I am in NZ i.e. my TZ is 12 hours +1 hr daylight savings, from UTC. e.g. A message is rx at 7:35AM NZDT. At 8:53am, the sms screen shows the message time as “in 11 hours” A message is rx Fri 6 dec, 1pm. SMS screen shows Saturday 2am. Sent message times/dates are correct. In the activity log of the contact page date…

On mine it is tied to daylight saving just to be more confusing…

@attah

That’s odd, since the Exif data contains a timezone.

So is it using the file datetime or the exif data?

[attah]

That’s a good experiment to make. Imo it should use exif if available, but i’m starting to suspect it isn’t.

[sausset]

Note that time is correctly displayed on old pictures taken with OS versions without the bug.

It is the same on my xperia 10 II with t+01:00 (timezone Amsterdam winter time, time is off 1 hour).
Is the time parsed in javascript? The js date is notoriously weird to work with timezones (don’t ask me how I know ).
