Ok I know people see this issue and I have seen posts for it, but no one ever posts if there is a fix. I live in Arizona, we dont observe daylights savings time here. Well on my Wing if I choose Arizona time for the time zone everything appears to work ok untill the phone changes the time zone to Mountain and then throws of all my appointments in the calendar by 1 hour. I tried disabling the option to automatically change the time based on time zone but no luck. I set the phone to AZ or mountain after the change and all my appointments do not revert then i have to go in and edit all of those. It does not matter what ROM I am running it ssems to happen on all, currently I am running Open Touch 7.3.
Good day to you all.
I have purchased the x1i for sometime now and I ran into my first snag. My job requires me to travel a lot around North America. So I find it handy when I can change time zones with my Xperia.
My problem is I tried to change the time zone Saint John's located in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Where its suppose to be GMT -3:30 hours but I'm getting GMT -5 hours.
Is there a way I can fix this in my registry?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yeah, that happens to me all the time. It fixes itself over time. I never did anything about it.
Interesting!
I wonder if I upgrade my ROM if that will solve the problem?
I think the original programmer's mistake was to confuse St. John vs. St. John's.
How did your phone fix itself?
Anyone else care to help out?
i think there's a feature that the phone can change its time via network operator.
Hi all, my TMOUS HD2 randomly changes time zones from EST to PST at least 2-3 times a week on its own when I have "my location" picked as a time. Anyone else have this problem? I flashed to the new T-mo ROM about 3 months ago...Tj
My device and a friend's device is having the same issue. This is irrelevant to the ROM as I am running a Artemis after the 3.14 and my friend is on 1.48
mine just recently started doing that..keeps putting me in the GMT -5 (Indiana) time zone instead of the -4 (Atlantic) I've had to change it like 3 times in one day. Never had a problem with this b4. Wonder if it has anything to do with the ThrottleLauncher WP7 theme i installed on it the other night..because that time setting seems to be changing to.
my uk hd2 keeps doing this over the last week or so, randomly jumping ahead timezones. it's persisted accross multiple energy roms and a stock rom.
weird

my HD2 was doing this but only when i would go home to visit in Richmond TX. When i would update weather manually it would switch to eastern time zone. I think this is because the phone thinks I am in Richmond VA so it switches to Eastern time. I havent found a viable fix for this but its not really an issue.
IS there a chance you are using your phone in a city or town that has a common name in another state? this might be the reason. While riding my motorcycle a while back i stopped in London Arkansas and my phone thought I was in London UK.

same Indiana time zone default issue. I HAVE THE LATEST 3.14 original ROM with c00kie's home tab.
Same here with the original ROM installed. I live in GMT+1 timezone and it sets my time one hour ahead at least 5x a day. Pretty annoying.
Hmmm... wondering if this issue has no fix, or if its not wide spread enough... It DEF has something to do with CUSTOM roms, because both me and my wifes HD2 worked like champs for a month straight out of the box, with location services and the whole nine with out ANY problems, I flashed ChuckyROM and here it is... No matter how many times i change the timezone, no matter how many soft resets, no matter how many ROMS flashed, the time keeps jumping... sometimes one hour, sometimes 2, it onlys corrects when i DISABLE all time syncs and locations... WHICH SUCKS and shouldn't be the fix... ANY HELP would be appreciated , THANKS IN ADVANCE
Hi folks!

It should fix all time zone issuse... Just give me a feedback!
Regards,
MrT69
That happened to me a long time ago. And I remember I fixed it either by checking/unchecking something on the Windows Mobile Device Center (or ActiveSync), something in the sort of NOT synchronizing Outlook items (no problem with me because I never use that anyway; I use MyPhone instead).
think i have a fix
disable the option in settings - menu - all settings - personal - phone - gsm/umys services - time synch
you can leave the option in settings - data services - internet time sync enabled.
not sure why its changed, i have stock everything....

I know the problem
Hello,
I know this problem.
And I think I know the reason for this "acting out".
It started for my HD2 at the day of the
DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME change.
I believe the makers of that phone forgot to install
a daylight savings option.
It would be great, if someone could make a clock that will do that,
or that will verify the time with a different time service,
taking into account daylight savings time (winter/summertime).

Nope. Its a problem for org ROMs also. It probably has somting to do with the Internet-provider or the providers of weather-app etc.
In my case the "my lokation" in the weather-app is showing wrong place. This error appeared at the same time as the clock-problem.
Hi all,
I have Windows Mobile 6.5, CE OS 5.2.21869 (hope that is enough info!)
I am on T-Mobile and sync with Exchange 2007. I am in the UK. I have signed up for the sharing of Orange network. Time zone set to UK.
I have not used my phone for a while and digged it out (only used for going to site for work) just after the time has moved back one hour. Since then my phone is changing the time to 1 hour forward the last few days. I put it back to normal and it changes itself a few minutes later. I thought this may be a sync thing so I set sync to manual but it still does the change of time. When I got off the train this morning in London it had set itself 5 hours forward! First time it has done that.
I cannot find the option to disable time zones as the T-Mobile website suggests. I have a sort of official rom but due to doing this nearly a year ago, cannot remember which one precisely. I have never had this issue before.
Another thread already opened for this problem.
a bit more help would be good like a link? I used the search first and found thousands of items which were not any help.
I worked it out myself. When I go to Orange for a signal my phone classes me as roaming and my visiting time zone was a few hours out. I changed my visiting to the same as home time zone and all is ok!!
Is anyone else with an Evo experiencing the wrong time zone on their phone? My friend can set his manually to mountain time, but if he has it on automatic it always goes to eastern time zone. He has all updates, prl, profile, reset phone, etc. It's the latest hardware Evo #0004 and no other problems.
That has happened to me on every Android phone I have had and also to my wife and a couple of friends. It will say we're in Africa. A manual zone change fixes it.
had it happen once so far. switched it to manual. couple days later automatic worked fine
Yeah, manual works fine, but that's not the way it's supposed to work. He wants to leave it on automatic for traveling. Sprint told us last night that google, HTC and sprint are all working on an update and that was what was causing the problem for some people and that they had a lot of complaints about it. Said it should be fixed today.
Well mine started with the change in day light savings. I'm located in the Eastern Time Zone and it keeps changing me to Central. Right now I have it set manually to Eastern. Any further updates on if this was fixed and how?
