A simple script to fix the NTP server on Android devices (especially TV)

How to build (Ignore this if you are not a developer)

• Clone the repository
• Create a virtual environment
• Install the requirements
• Run pyinstaller android_time_date_fixer.spec

Technical Details

The default Android TV NTP server is mostly time.android.com, and like other android links it blocks many countries (e.g. Syria), and also too many other IPs in other countries. This prevents the device from syncing the time and date, and it resets everytime the device is powered off to the default one, and this in its turn is blocking the WIFI internet connection.

This script will fix this problem by changing the NTP server to pool.ntp.org which is a free and open NTP server that is available worldwide.
