I've tried a couple cooked roms, and to the best of my knowledge I didn't have this issue on my stock AT&T rom.
I've set my time zone to Moutain Time (-7), and the time on the today screen shows the correct time, but all my text messages show up with a time stamp exactly minus one hour, so 8:45pm is showing up as 7:45pm.
Can anyone tell me why this is?

not sure what exactly is the problem or if this will help, but when I do receive SMS from overseas, I get them with their time zone.
e.g. I am in Singapore (+8GMT) and I receive a message from Sydney (+10GMT), I will receive the message as 12pm, although its only 10am in Singapore.
I've been playing around with the time zone settings in the phone options and it's not helping. There is an option to automatically update time from the network but that hasn't fixed anything.
All texts I am receiving are from local GMT -7 time zone people, various cariers. I'm using AT&T if it helps anyone with any ideas.
Text messages are still being stamped one our behind.
It's hard to believe I am the only one suffering this. I haven't done anything other than try some different roms. I haven't done any special settings that I can imagine would cause this to happen.

I'm pretty sure its due to daylight savings time which was supposed to be this weekend, but they backed it up to next weekend. AT&T still hasn't fixed this.
Having the same issue my txts are one hour ahead...
Where are you located? What time zone are you in?
If you force your phone into GSM/EDGE mode, it may fix the issue. Of course who wants that?
Call AT&T and complain. I've talked to HTC, they say they simply use the time stamp that comes from the network and it's not their fault.
It only seems to happen in 3G mode.

So, I turned off my phone last night, and turned it back on this morning to no service. I did a soft reset to see if my phone was just being difficult, and it still could not find service. I put it on my pocket and walked around with it, and picked up a signal after 10 or so minutes. This is particularly odd, because my phone was in a spot (when I had just turned it on) where it would usually have very good reception. Now, whenever I soft reset it, it takes a really long time (and a lot of battery) to find a signal! I figure it COULD be AT&T's network being really shady today, but I haven't heard any other reports and my friend's phones are all acting fine.
What could be the problem here? I'm using the stock HTC rom, with radio 1.27.12.11 on AT&T in the US.
Me too
I have the same radio version as you, however, I am on stock Kaiser using T-Mobile. I've had this problem many times. Not every reset but most result in several minutes of no service. I've even gone into settings and forced "Find Network" but that doesn't seem to speed things up.
Anyone have a solution?
I've also noticed that texts take reallllllly long to send. This one's been sitting in my outbox for at least 15 minutes now, with 4 bars of service.
Ahhhhhh.
I'm going to flash a new radio, 1.27.14.09 once my phone's battery is charged past 50%. Hopefully this will resolve my problems!
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.

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.

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, I've owned my tytn II for a few months and in the last couple of weeks, the phone has been acting really odd. I have tried to make a call and it gives me the dreaded "beep beep beep" and ends the call every time i try. I've noticed this though; If i turn the phone off and back on, then as soon as it gets signal (like 3 minutes after load up??), i can make a call ... Then i cant make another after that ... Then if i send a text, as soon as i receive the "sms sent" notification, I can call again, if i try immediately.
It seemed like a software issue, so selected "clear storage" from the settings menu and still get the same problem. I've tried changing from my virgin sim to my vodafone sim and get the same problem. To make maters far worse, as well as not being able to dial out, nobody can dial in; it goes straight to voicemail. I am showing average to good reception when this happens.
One thing i have noticed since the problem started is that the "G" symbol at the top of the phone is now showing "3G", but i haven't changed area and don't recall it saying 3G before. I haven't changed any settings and haven't got any new software ... Its at factory standard, 100%.
Does anyone know what I should do as I'm getting ready to brick the phone just for the sake of it. I've had the Wizard for over 2 years and I never had 2 restore it once ... this phone is REALLY bugging me. I'm honestly thinking of keeping the wizard and selling this one on ebay for say £180 or something, just to get rid of it.
Also, I've noticed the battery is draining faster recently. The phone is about 5 months old.

Did u try to turn of the 3g reception?
If no, try to turn it of in settings/personal/phone/band and in network type select GSM(or in comm manager turn the 3G off).
Mikulec, you are a god ... I guess i'm just getting angry at the phone because I haven't even started playing with it yet and its just so much more tempermental than my old wizard. It was to the point that I am still using the wizard as my main phone and the newer tytn II just sits at home all day! As it appears so far though, it definitely has worked, so thank you.

happy to help u bro, the kaiser is a good toy, u just need to play with it.
This along with the faster battery drain is the first sign of a radio hardware failure. If in a few weeks you start losing network even with 3G off, or can feel your phone gets warm even on standby then you'll already know what to do... send it for repair.
When I send it in for repair, do I need to install the normal rom/etc? Before I installed the rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416278), I had no issues whatsoever. Will they actually replace what they need to even if it is working under the stock rom?
Actually, I just checked with 3G off, and I'm still getting the same 3 beeps. Anyone know what's up?

My friend that has kaiser also and usually flash his phone once or twice a week and had it repaired alot and they have never said anything about his ROM
but then we live in Sweden and maybe we have other rules then you have
It's better to restore original ROM and SPL (there's a guide in the Wiki for that) before sending it back. Once you've done that you can check if it works again - obviously if it does with the original ROM then don't send it back.
I was unfortunate enough to get one of the first batch of preorder Nexus 6's on AT&T with the random reboot issue. Has anyone found a solution for this yet? Flashing the stock factory image from Google does not work. Exchanging is not an option as of now because no AT&T store in my area has any in stock. Any help would be appreciated.
Mine was rebooting at least once a day. I noticed that it happened a couple times as I was lifting the phone, when ambient display would normally turn on, so I turned ambient display off. It's been almost two days now with no restarts. Give it a try and let me know if it works for you.
Noticed my Motorola.com unit doing this over the past few days. Really strange, but haven't found a solution to it either.

I am having the exact same issue and i purchased from Motorola.com as well. Check my phone and the screen is blank and i have to power off my phone to get it to come back to life. Not sure what the issue is but it is frustrating.
Haven't had a reboot at all, using T-Mobile N6.
Upload a last_kmsg after your "random reboot" in /proc/
OP,
Are you saying you flashed the factory image and it didn't fix the issue or you were unable to flash the factory image successfully?

I am not sure if the WIFI has anything to do with it but i will keep track of when my phone reboots. Most of the time it was in my pocket and i went to check it and the screen was off and had to hold down the power button to turn it off and back on. If it happens again in going to try to call/text myself or use android device manager to see if it actually is ON but the screen is blank or if it is actually turned off completely.
Is this issue present also in the playstore's devices?
Just got home from my second trip to the AT&T store today. They told me they wanted me to return the phone and that they have no ETA on when they will be receiving the fixed batch. If I wait until after the 14 day return period the phone they will exchange me for will be refurbished.
My options are:
1. Keep the phone
2. Return the phone and go back to my old one
3. Exchange it when they have the "fixed" batch for a refurb
Great...

I just noticed yesterday by phone rebooted after leaving work and driving home. It was off wifi the whole time and when i got home the screen was blank. Couldn't turn it on without holding down the power button. I have a form in the Motorola forms about the same issue. I'll post if i get a resolve.
Shoot. Got a fully paid for AT&T Nexus 6 delivered last Friday (tried every Wed on Play Store and gave up). The ringtones, startup sound and subtle branding dont really bother me. The tether restrictions dont affect me on a shared data plan. But, it's randomly rebooted two consecutive nights while sitting next to me on couch. I suspect ambient display because it was right at time for medicine reminder app notification. Unacceptable. I guess if it continues I'll take it back after Thanksgiving and use Nexus 5 until AT&T can get some stock to replace it. Assuming it's an AT&T only hardware problem, which doesnt actually seem likely. Otherwise, maybe AT&T / Motorola can push Google to do a software fix.
I have this problem too. I have an unrooted ATT nexus 6. Last night i did a factory reset and turned off ambient display. I have a feeling ambient display may be to blame for these random reboots but who knows
Mine plays the ATT jingle when it freezes up. The screen goes black and have to hold the power button down to get it back up. Happened once at work (no wifi) and once at home (on wifi).
I hope they push an update soon.
Don't hold your breath for the update. If flashing a stock image doesn't fix it the problem is probably deeper than that. You have 14 days from the day you received it to get a new replacement.

In my experience, yes. I purchased a 32gb Blue model from the play store, running it with a brand new AT&T sim and in the week I've had it its randomly rebooted three times that I've noticed. Hopefully its an issue with a single batch, I'm RMAing this device for other reasons (uneven display color) and hopefully the new one won't have these issues.
