You are looking for Settings.System.AUTO_TIME settings (which has been ported to Settings.Global.AUTO_TIME in API 17). Prior to API level 17, you could read and change this value, but now this value is read-only for non-system applications.

 private boolean isAutoTimeEnabled() { if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN_MR1) { // For JB+ return Settings.Global.getInt(getContentResolver(), Settings.Global.AUTO_TIME, 0) > 0; } // For older Android versions return Settings.System.getInt(getContentResolver(), Settings.System.AUTO_TIME, 0) > 0; }
