Comment 1 for bug 692597

Hello Alejandro and other users,

After I switched to U1 v2.0 this issue of time zones disabled any possibility of using U1 any more.

Initially I tried to upgrade when on a trip in Bangladesh, 10 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time (home). I could not install it. When I got home I was able to finish installation. But still, when I travel I can't start U1, and I travel over half my time and far, beyond the 4 hour time difference I read in one of these messages/explanation. 4 hours seems designed for Continental US.

I saw an update to U1 came (v2.01) and I thought that issue was solved. It wasn't.

There has to be a way to make it work independently from time differences. Drop Box works in that sense seamlessly. U1 should not be behind DB.

Just an observation/ suggestion on my behalf.

Regards to the team,
Ernesto

Bug description:
  Oauth API calls fail if the user has the time too wrong, with this
  error on the backend:

  AccountInfoError: args
  (<ubuntuone.controlpanel.dbus_service.ControlPanelBackend at
  /preferences at 0x2d7f090>, {'error_type': 'WebClientError',
  'error_msg': u"(400L, 'Expired timestamp: given 1292771581 and now
  1292857971 has a greater difference than threshold 900')"}), kwargs
  {}.

  The user then gets an empty control panel showing only "Value could
  not be retrieved" in every field
