Image show Spanish and 24h format. So I think I'm missing something in this report

Taking back tracking flags - sorry Jeni: Spanish and Portuguese use 24 hour format. Why is this an issue? Am I missing something?

(In reply to delphine from comment #6) > Taking back tracking flags - sorry > > Jeni: Spanish and Portuguese use 24 hour format. Why is this an issue? Am I > missing something? According to the 24 hr Wikipedia page ****'South America Spanish'**** uses the 12 hour clock. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24-hour_clock#Computer_support

I've talked with Mozilla Hispano community. They have had this discussion between them, since many countries in South America use 24 hour clock format. The consensus was to use 24 hour clock format

Exactly as Delphine said. Closing.

the issues has been reported again on FFOS 1.1 during the latam certification Built ID 20130823171628 Device: Ikura QC RIL version: "ro.build.firmware_revision=V1.01.00.01.019.180" gaia commit: 4916f82 Merge branch 'zte/ics_strawberry_cdr' of ssh://10.67.16.41:29418/quic/lf/releases/gaia into ics_strawberry_cdr gecko commit: a1c2bb0 ZRL modify ACCEPT Http head for MMS A.- Overview Description (technical background, concise explanation of the bug): The time format is set in 24 hours by default ________________________________________________________________________________ B.- Steps to Reproduce (initial conditions, required resources, step by step instructions to reproduce): 1.- Go to Settings 2.- Select Data & Time 3.- Select Time 4.- Check the time format ________________________________________________________________________________ C.- Actual Result (current bad behaviour that is reported as a bug): The DuT has the time format of 24 hours and it cannot be configured as 12 hours. ________________________________________________________________________________ D.- Expected Result (correct behaviour wished): Time must be indicated in 12 hrs. Format by default.

With respect to the clock, it seems better to have the two options, both 24 h AM / PM at least in some LATAM regions are used to AM / PM more than 24 h. I'm thinking of doing a small survey of Mozilla Hispano and Mozilla Brazil about the issue

We can have both options, and be set apart from the locale. But we agreed on the past to use 24h by default for spanish-spoken countries.
