After talking to Omer in IRC it looks like indicator-datetime-service is not exporting anything for Unity8 to find when Omer hits this.

I haven't been able to reproduce this yet but with a little effort we can get a debug log of indicator-datetime from the phone:

1. phablet-config the phone to writable mode
2. once the phone is writable, edit /usr/share/upstart/sessions/indicator-datetime.conf to add this line (without quotes) before the exec line: "G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all"
3. settings > reset phone > erase & restart everything
4. then ~/.cache/upstart/ should have a debug log of indicator-datetime from the session that follows the restart

I have nearly the same problem also with the sound-indicator. On my device, it is sometimes not there after boot. (I mean not the first boot, it is sometimes after some boot.) I am on Ubuntu 15.04 r117 on mako (Nexus 4)
