How do I change the date format to standard dd/mm/yy?
I've looked through the settings, I've looked through the help files and I've searched the forums, but I couldn't even find mention of this. My phone will only display the date as mm/dd/yy, which as far as I know is only used in USA and I've set my location to London.
Normally this isn't a problem unless the numbers are close eg. 11/10/13, which I would always read as 11th October 2013 and I have gotten this wrong before. The only solution I have is a label stuck on the phone to remind me. This is only a minor irritation, but as I can't fix it, I would appreciate any help. Thanks JP

Unfortunately, I do not have a Firefox OS device, so this is based on an old screen shot I saw in a search...
During initial setup, you may have been asked to confirm your language and region. I believe the region is used to localize your date format. Can you find a setup app to get back to those choices? Please be advised that running a setup app may remove some data, so it's probably a good idea to wait for additional feedback before actually going forward with it.
Hi,
As far as I know, you cannot change the format at this moment. Your feedback will be submitted off. You can also file a bug for this at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org and post the bug number here.
Thank you!
The region is set as Europe and the nearest city as London. The language is set to English. I haven't changed this since initial set-up. JP
As said, I don't think that this is possible. Please file a bug so our developers can work on it.
