Clock on 8125 in military time?

OK i have my 8125 bout a week now and so far ive updated the rom to summiter's custom cingular rom, and all is well with that. Last nite i installed resco file explorer and memmaid. i also did the omapclock tweak and all is well there too, but i noticed that now my clock on the today screen is in military time. (24hrs instead of 12hrs) Can someone tell me how to fix this so it tells regular time again...

One of the customization cab files should have set it to display 12 hour time, but something must have changed it.
You can set it to your desired format in the "Regional Settings" section of the system settings.

Thanks
Thanks Summiter,
Damn is there anything you dont know? Also thanks for the quick response. Ive been looking all day to try to fix the damn clock. Regional settings didnt even come to mind

I know just enough to be dangerous at times. ;-)

I know this post is 6 months behind the reply from summiter, but I've just encountered the same change to my clock on my 8125 to military time. Over this past couple of weeks (10/16/06), I upgraded to ROM version 2.26.10.2 WWE. Everything was fine for a while, then all of a sudden this afternoon, 12-hour time changed over to 24-hour (military) time. My clock and calendar are now in military time and I just don't think that way and need it back.
I haven't added any software recently, so I have no earthly idea what caused this to change. I went to Regional Settings and have the settings on "H:mm:ss", which I assumed was the 12-hour setting. But te sample shows military time for both "H:mm:ss" and "HH.mm.ss".
Please help as I liked this ROM version until this occurred. I'd rather not have to go to another ROM just yet.
Thanks,
Keith

You're close. Scroll up and make it h.mm.ss (or hh.mm.ss if you like 2 digit time, for instance 09:21)

The difference here is the H:
H is military time 24 Hours, H = 1 digit, HH = 2 digits
h is normal time, , h = 1 digit, hh = 2 digits

In case you are still on Military time, I believe the answer is that you want the formats with "tt" on the end. That should add "AM" & "PM".

But when I change the Regional Setting to Hong Kong (my home region), the tt format doesn't show up any more! It shows up if Regional is USA. Is there a brute force approach to add it back in?
Thanks.

Time on wm5 - 12 hour format changes to 24 format

the time on my today screen (8125) changes to 24 hour format even when the 12 hour format is chosen. did a soft/hard reset yet still the same. Running a qtek rom on mine so not sure if it's rom related. any help? :?:

I've got the fix
Go to your regional setting and go to the time field where it shows the time formatting yours wil be
HH:mm:ss
HH = Military time
change it to
hh:mm:ss
hh(lowercase)=12 hour format
This was bothering my 6 wizard users for 2 weeks and this fixed the problem

What have to do is go to your Regional Settings and under the time tab select h:mm:ss tt in the time style field. It is hidden when you have another time style selected. Just scroll down with the mini scroll arrows on the right side of the field when you select it.
I struggled with this for a while before figuring it out. I hope it helps. 8)

Thanks for this tip.
Suddenly today my 8125 started displaying military time. This fixed it.
What I'm curious about now, though, is why did military time suddenly show up? I didn't set it to that intentionally. I have installed a few new programs recently - I'm just speculating that Chronos might be the culprit since it is a time program.

Time shown in 24HR format.

for the past day my phone has been displaying in 24hr format instead of 12hr.. i tried regional settings and it will stay 24hr format.. is there a reg edit that i can do to make it display 12hr format only?

Check regional settings, HH is 24 hr format, hh is 12 hr format.

i tried that.. it wount change it..

you have to pick h:mm:ss tt
You have to scroll up in the time style line to find it.

I just barely notice that my is on 24hr, regional settings wont work also
Someone should know the registry of this

you have to pick h:mm:ss "tt", mine was doing the exact same thing and this fixed it.

My bad i was trying to go down insted of up

Any ideas how to fix the problems?

Hi, not sure if anyone having similar problems or not.
Problem 1: I live in Sydney, I've set the time to GMT+10 Sydney, after a while, the phone automatically change the time setting to GMT+10 Vladivostok. Any idea how to fix this minor problem?
Problem 2: When I put my phone to stand-by mode (eg. after a while the phone's screen is off or phone automatically lock up), when some one send the sms to my phone, the phone does not play the warning sound for incoming message, until I turn on screen than the phone play the incoming sms sound.
Problem 3: Weather--- I've download the update for weather for the whole week. For example, on Monday night I've downloaded the weather, the screen showing the weather at night (for Monday), than On tuesday morning, the weather screen does not update to Tuesday's weather, it just stay for monday night's weather screen. Does Dimond automatic update the weather for each day base from the data which already downlaoded?
Thanks for you help!

ohh guys... how come no one can answer my problems??

1. happened to me also. i don't care if it is jerusalem+ or beirut+2. do you really care? for a possible solution see also post # 11.
2. somewhere in the forum there is a tweak (or a registry edit?) for this. i think there are ROMs with this bug solved.
3. you can choose to have the weather update manually or automatically.
weather/menu/settings/download weather automatically (thick for auto).
there not such thing like downloading the weather Monday for the whole week...the weather is changing (like when they said tomorrow-rain and you walk all next day feeling ridiculous with yr umbrella and the sun is shining ).
if it is important for you live it on manual and each time you sync with yr pc download the weather. is cheap and fast and daily.

is a registry key. use a register editor. do a search.

I'm using Swifts 5.5 ROM and I have had mine change from Hobart to Vladivostok as well.

and if u are changing it back? stays? try usin the visiting time. maybe this one does not have the bug? (if it is a bug).
also you can try:
settings/personal/phone/time zones-check or uncheck the "automatic change time zone and clock".
don't forget to come back and tell us the results!!

If you ask me, it's a bit stupid that it changes the time zone constantly when you select to sync the time. By the looks of it, it always changes the time zone to the last item in that zone (Ulaanbaatar is the last item in +8).

Only way I have found to fix this is to go the Phone Settings area, Then Time Zones and turn off "Automatic change time zone and clock" . I had this same issue with my TyTnII and now my Diamond. My guess is the Telco Networks transmit the time as raw UTC along with an offset, but without a location stamp. Something like "it is currently 0230UTC and this location is GMT+10". It is then up to the WM6.x to go into its list of timezomes and I bet it just grabs the first in its list that is +10, so Vladivostok. Buggers up summertime offsets too.
Good news is if you leave this turned off the time will still get updated when you activsync by way of HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Clock\NetworkTimeSync.
Just that it wont automtically change when you move time zones for example.

I've set mine to off, I'll report back in a few days, sounds like it will be fine looking at previous post by Logger.

what I mean was you know when you hook up to the net and downloaded the update for the weather, the phone will update for the whole week's data. As soon as the update is done, the phone will show you the weather of the same day (the date you updated e.g. Monday), but the following day (Tuesday), the weather still showing Monday's weather and doesn't change the date Tuesday, but I know the weather for tueday was also downloaded (yeah I know the weather maybe is not up-to-date since was downloaded on Monday).

Time stamp on received txt messages?

When you receive a txt message, does yours show the time you received it? Mine, running 1 of Dutty's 6.1, shows the date as in 15/11 for received txts and the time i sent a reply.
Is there any way to change it to show the time i received the txt, aswell as the time i replied to it?
iv tried smileysms & sms tweaker and so far havnt had much luck. Does anyone know of any SMS tweaking programs/settings i could try?
Many thanks guys

Did you go into Regional Settings and Go to the Date tab and change Dat from DD/MM to MM/DD? The same for Time.

The timestamp on mine is off by hours! The time on my phone is set right, it's just the timestamp that's off, so it says i got a text at 4pm but it's really 1pm.

thanks mate

iv gone n managed 2 change the timestap on my sent messages from time -> date now aswell, no idea how this happened as any settings i did try & change i changed back when they didnt work.
Any ideas? cheers guys
