If your provider is in a different state and daylight savings is in progress the automatic time setting will give you that states time, so you have to change the timezone to suite your location.

To fix the time on your phone please follow these steps: 

1. Go to settings App
2. Tap General Management
3. Tap Date and Time
4. Toggle the button for Set time zone based on Location and it will update automatically.

I could resolve it but how can I set my clock for 24hours..its showing 12 hours clock.

Could you please help me with that too?

Settings/general managment/date and time then at the bottom of that page is a toggle for 24hr format
