So I don't know if any of you will actually be able to help me but it's worth a shot. I kinda messed up a week or two ago.

My phone's data usage resets on the 11th of each month, and I had my data page and tracking all set up nice and proper (I have a Galaxy SIII) except then I started playing AdVentureCapitalist and, in the spirit of capitalism, I cheated my way ahead.I turned off automatic time and date updates and changed my year back to 2000 and then up to 2036 a bunch of times to maximize profits. Then I turned auto time and date back on. That was all fine and dandy until I went to check on my data usage and found that my tracking page stubbornly believes that the year is 2083, my cycle starts on weird and inconsistent dates, and that I have only used 3.41MB of data, which is untrue.

Why am I in the future? My phone clock won't even go that far.
Why does my phone hate me?
Is this fixable?

Here are some screenshots I guess.

It feels uncomfortably like 2015. :(

Only thing I can offer here is that 3, 4 and 1 are the numbers of the blind prophets, so let us know if you have any strange premonitions from 68 years in the future.

There are negative consequences to time travel and you're going to have to deal with them.

@ImANargleHunter no

If I'd started preparing earlier I might have a simple cosplay up, but I didn't because I'm a lazy shit

Wow, you guys are so helpful. I will never again mess with the flow of time. Except for maybe when I miss special events in Animal Crossing. Or to fund projects in Animal Crossing. Or to ensure stores are open in Animal Crossing. Animal Crossing is a pretty big exception.

Turn your phone off and take the battery out, then turn it back on, if you haven't already. Taking the battery out and completely depriving it of electricity will hopefully cause the time/date thing to reset - even if you turn it off, it uses minimal battery to keep track of such things so yeah. Maybe that'll work.

I don't think I have it in my power to cause an earthquake. That'd be cool, but I think it's a no go.

^ All you have to do is kill a butterfly.

Do what Halo said, but then also take a hammer and smash the phone into little bitty pieces. It'll never insist it's the future ever again.

It was a good idea, but it was also unsuccessful. Thanks anyways.

In this time line, chemo therapy is a fad. What have we done!?
