Regarding:

• Change all sensor as early_suspend devices and Enable PMIC RTC to replace the MX53 SRTC to fix the issue of saved date/time lost when power off

Does this affect Mx51-BBG platforms as well?    In which case I would expect that R10.4 would resolve/eliminate random date&time loss during reboot cycles.

We have been fighting a date&time loss (random reset to 1/1/1970) and have been unable to chase down a resolution.

It also appears that the update Date & Time via the Network never sets the date & time....are we missing something?

Thanks,

Mike
