TL;DRThe Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 update is causing a rare bug that randomly changes the displayed date.The issue appears in the quick settings date readout.The status bar time, calendar, and task apps remain accurate and unaffected.It’s always expected that an Android beta will have bugs. It’s what they’re for — find all the bugs and (hopefully) fix them before the stable update comes out. Usually, those bugs come down to things like app crashes, system freezes, or battery drains. But the Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 has done something I never expected on my Pixel 10 Pro: reinvent time as we know it.It all started one morning when it was almost 4 AM, and as I pulled down my quick settings panel to turn off dark mode, I saw the date, which was July 28th at the time, suddenly become “0 Jan.” I’m not sure if I should call that January 0th or Jan 0rd, but either way, it was an odd thing to witness. A reboot fixed it, but then the next day the same bug happened again, this time setting the date back to Wednesday, January 1st. That made a bit more sense, given January 1st was indeed a Wednesday, but even so, this is a strange bug.
