Hey!
I seriously need some help here. Toolbar clock keeps changing. Suddenly it is on time and then the next time I turn it on it might have gone back 2 hours.
Example.
I turn it on and the clock shows 15.34.
I check my calendar and turn it off (standby)
I turn it on again the next time, say after 30 min. The clock SHOULD show 16.04, but it might say 07.17.
Anybody had the same problem?
I tried calling out, send a message, etc. but the clock does not change. Sometimes it goes back to normal, ie. it displays the correct time without me doing anything, but today it has not and the time is still wrong.
This is seriously annoying. I use my phone as my watch and I need it to display the correct time at ALL times.
Thanks
Hi, helangen.
I had a similar problem involving time. I kept finding that every so often my appointments kept changing by an hour. Everytime I went to the clock settings it showed plus one hour. So changed it back and then it would do it again and change to a time zone ahead.
Under "settings/personal/phones" there is a tab that says time zones. this controls whether or not the phone changes the time zones and clock automatically.
Personally, i erased my phone using clear storage under "settings/system" and started a fresh making sure I choose the right time zone and regional settings first off. Then entered all my reoccuring appointments and restored a copy of my PIM with the latest version of PIMBACKUP. At least this saved me entering all my contacts and kept my sms and mms.
I then unticked the automatic option I mentioned earlier and have had not one time related problem since.
Don't know if this will help but it can't hurt to share as you never know..

Cheers. I'll give that a try. It's not that the clock just changes with an hour, but it is totally random how it changes. I might have to do a hard reset ;(
I can confirm that this solution worked. Thanks. Turned off the automatic timezone change and the clock have been correct for three days straight.
Please forgive me if this is being discussed elsewhere, but I skimmed through the Kaiser forum, and I didn't see anyone else mentioning this problem. My phone automatically reset the clock for DST yesterday, and looking through the calendar today all the appointments are an hour off. For example, my work schedule. On the day summary page it says I work 07:30 - 21:00 today, however when you click edit appointment it says 06:30 - 20:00. On Wednesday I have jury duty. On the day page it says that jury duty starts at 10:30, however it really starts at 9:30, and if I show up an hour late I am in contempt of court!
Is there a setting I am not aware of? When I click edit appointment it shows the correct time, but on the day page its an hour late. The thing that really bothers me is that since I have an erratic schedule at work I have it set to remind me an hour before, just in case I forget to set my alarm clock the night before. Today I got my 1 hour reminder while actually driving to work!
I am using the new Tilt ROM, details are in my signature.
Thanks, Jay
Update: I've been on the phone with AT&T tech support for 30 minutes now, and it still doesn't work right ...

If you are saying the Today Screen Calendar is off by an hour, but the calendar inside the pda is ok; A soft reset should fix your issue.
We had a couple of Hermes and kaiser's with this issue yesterday.
Try the attached cab
Ok, I 've been transferred to HTC support from ATT, which is nice, I didn't have to call them myself, and the ATT rep explained my problem to them. There is a hotfix of this issue, I haven't tried it yet, but I figured I'd share. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949168

I've soft reset and took the battery out. I'm going to try the DST cab.
-Jay
WOW! Mine is too!
Didn't even notice.
All my calendar events were changed from 8am start to 9am start.
What the heck?!
Yeah, it's stupid daylight savings time. You have to download a patch from microsoft to fix it, can do it straight to the phone by going to www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile and hit the Update option. I don't really understand why it couldn't just be automatically sent thru the Windows Update option under Settings...talk about a frustrating issue though!
now the question is will it work with 6.1
I saw this coming days ahead because of my scheduling :S...
Anyways, what fixed for me was just fixing the time on my Kaiser, all but one (?) appointments switched back to the original time automatically. No extra cabs or tweaks.
Good luck with that.
I've tried running that patch, and after installing the cab, it resets the Tilt, and then when it comes back everything is still the same. I've tried switching to a different timezone, and then back (per the advice in the another thread) to no avail.
Jimmyv - what do you mean you "fixed" the time?
Jay, please keep us updated as to what you're finding out.

I tried resetting the clock, but the appointments were not effected. I just got back from lunch, I'm going to try the cab now.

Keep in mind this is not, nor should it be considered, a permanent fix. I don't know what long-term problems this could cause, but I'll tell you how I got it to work for me.
1. (Not sure if this is needed, because it didn't seem to change anything) Install the 2008 DST update from Microsoft.
2. Make sure all your appointments are still set to their original times (As in, you didn't change the original hour so that it'd remind you with it's skewed view of reality )
2a. (You may not have to do this) Under the Phone options dialog (Settings -> Personal -> Phone), go to the 'Time Zones' tab, and uncheck 'Automatic change time zone and clock'.
3. Go to the clock settings dialog (Settings -> System -> Clock & Alarms) Set the time zone to the one an hour behind you (-6 to -7 is what I did)
4. Set the time, manually, an hour ahead. (In the system clock dialog, there are two options for time: Time zone, and time. Set the time zone an hour behind, then set the actual time an hour ahead.)
5. Enjoy. Your appointments should now be okay.
I do hope someone figures out what's really causing this, though, because I'm not keen on changing the time zone every time DST comes into effect.

Mine works fine.
Your time is pulled off the network. I don't see how this could cause a problem.
YEa... had this problem myself. Figured it was a good time to hard reset and reinstall since I had a crapload of stuff I didn't use anymore.

That worked, but for appointments I entered today now are an hour early! I can't win.

A hard reset wouldn't be bad, but I really don't want to re-enter all of my appointments. Otherwise I could fix it by just deleting all the appointments and re-entering them.

I think the problem is that 2 things are trying to do the same thing. The network is trying to adjust for DST and windows is trying to do it too. I wish there was a way to just turn off DST and let the phone manage the time.

I just had a brainstorm! I'm in the eastern time zone. (GMT -5) Indiana does not participate in DST. I switched my time zone to GMT-5 Indiana, and all my appointments are correct now. I'm leaving autoupdate time on the phone, so this should take care of itself, and the phone will manage the time changes.
-Jay
I just realized you do have to turn autoupdate time off to use my earlier method. Futhermore, due to the same problem, I'm not sure you're new method will work forever. The reason I had to turn autoupdate time off was because the network told my phone it was -not- in the -7 time zone. I think, after a little bit of time, it will tell you're phone it's not in Indiana and you'll be stuck with the same problem all over again. x.x I'm going to look at the registry for the clock/calendar integration and see if I can't find some hidden setting that'll stop the clock from messing with the appointments. I'm pretty new to this though, so don't bet on my finding something that'll work. Any help from someone smarter would be very much appreciated. ;D
Edit: Sadly, the only thing I could find that looks anywhere close to something in relation to this is the value TimeZoneInformation in HKLM\Time. I can't figure out how I'm supposed to edit that so that changing the time zone doesn't touch the appointments, though. I'm not even convinced it's possible. Anyone else know any registry values that might relate to this problem? I'm going to try and decompile the MS patch next to see if I can find any hints with what they did.. Even if it didn't work.
Hi all,
I'm using a Tilt flashed to HTC ROM and it's been great for half a year.
Last week I started noticing that when I open an email, I don't see the header and first few lines of the body, rather the middle of the body appears. I've checked the settings and can't find what has changed.
Any assistance in figuring outr how to get back to normal would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
JZ
Use KaiserTweak to Disable "D-Pad Scroll Navigation" under the "PocketIE" section.
On a side note, I've seen this posted many, many times in the past (I actually had the same issue and found the solution without having to start a new thread), so please try to search for your answer before you post.
Thanks for the response.
Honestly, as much as I've been in this forum, I don't ever remember seeing this. Maybe it was worded differently.
Intersting though, I did remove Kaiser tweak a while back to try and get around a very bad sync problem. The sync problem went away, but now I have this. I think I can live with this more than having to re-establish a sync relationship every day.
cheers,
JZ

Hmm....that's sort of curious. As far as I know, KaiserTweak doesn't run in the background, so removing the .exe and .xml file shouldn't accomplish anything. Perhaps a change made by KaiserTweak could affect something, but having the program on your device or memory card shouldn't have any effect (and removing it wouldn't have undone any changes it made anyway). So if there was a particular change that caused a problem, you should still be able to run it and just change this one setting without affecting anything else.
Hi to everyone,
I have a problem with my diamond. Since yesterday when i try to open the contact tab in the touchflow it don't open. Instead of open i get the following message: "Opening touch flow 3D" , and than nothing appears and goes back to the main menu.
Can anyone help me? I tried to restart, soft reset and set the default theme ( my actually is sprint) and nothing work.!!!!
I really don't want to do a hard-reset!
Thanks!!
No one...?!
I've never had that problem before. If you can't wait for someone to relate to your experience and to try to get u help...........then my suggestion is to hard reset your device.
Perhaps it's the best solution. Just save everything on your pc and/or use PPCPimBackup to get you back up. Just remember not to save your system components as you might be bring in the problem again.
Hi
The clock on my htc tytn II keep displaying wrong time. I set the time but after few hours time is still the same . It has happened few times.
Any idea what's going wrong with it.
K
do you have the right time zone set?
If you do have the right timezone and it still changes, maybe your network time is off. Go to start, settings, phone and then the Time Zones tab on the bottom and uncheck "Automatic change time zone and clock."
Also sometimes when you sync your device with your pc it will set your device's time to you pc's time so check your pc time and time zone as well if it happens after you sync.
Thanks for the reply, I have unchecked "Automatic change time zone and clock" option but just to clarify the problem.
The time on the phone seems to stand still on random ocassions.
e.g. i normally set the alarm to wake up at 4:30 am everyday. The alram didn't go off today. When I suddenly woke up at 06:00 am and found the time on phone is 4:00 am . it felt good having 2 extra hours of sleep
It happened couple of times last year but this year so far 4 time already.
K
so is your time changing or getting stuck?
Is your entire device freezing or just your clock?
If its just your clock, i dont know what would be causing that. Try making sure all other programs are exited and/or do a soft reset before you go to bed.
clock is getting stuck.
phone works fine no problem, have been doing soft resets and after that it works fine for a day or two.
i guess i need to do sme more poking around to try to fig out what is causing the clock to get stuck.
thanks any ways.
K
Hi k_aftab,
i have the same problem.
have you find the cause of this problem?!
thanks
I have the same problem too...any fix?
