More information about this is needed.
Does it loose minutes after 24h?
Does rebooting fix it?
Has it something to do with cpu usage?
Are you using Automatic time from your operator?

Somebody else should report this too.

I am testing this now.

This is not important.
You have the Automatic settings in Data/Time settings which will synchronize 
time and
you can use a different tool.

After some hours I will check how much seconds are off.

• Changed state: Staling

Is that a new status?  Because if it's supposed to mean it's stalled, it should 
be spelled "Stalling" :)

There are two forms:
stall
stalling
*stalled - stopped, ...*
*
*
and
stale
staling
*staled - "going stale", is a chemical and physical process in
bread<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bread> and
other foods that reduces their palatability. Stale bread is dry and
leathery.
*
I believe we can use either one for the status of an issue ;)

Polytheus choose whatever one you want.

I have been using microsecond the measure the time difference and adter 3 days 
I got about 50s difference.

I believe this is completely normal due to the hardware used.

Please use the automatic time or use an application like microsecond to keep 
the phone synchronized.
