I lose my date time when VDD power lost.  We do have a battery connected to VBAT. 

I think we are missing some configuration for enabling battery back up.

We are doing the following:

[..] To enable access to the RTC Domain and RTC registers, proceed as follows:

   Enable the Power Controller (PWR) APB1 interface clock using the

       RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd() function.

   Enable access to RTC domain using the PWR_BackupAccessCmd() function.

   Select the RTC clock source using the RCC_RTCCLKConfig() function.

   Enable RTC Clock using the RCC_RTCCLKCmd() function.

Is there more we need to do?

Thanks!

With just WICED_ENABLE_MCU_RTC defined, in my setup I am able to set up the time. Please check the same in your setup and update the thread.

Do you notice the platform_rtc_init() always set the time to default_rtc_time?

i.e. Everytime you reboot or reset the device, the rtc time is reset to wrong time.

I reported it very long time ago in
