Clock resetting for no particular reason - P3300, MDA Compact III General

Hi all,
does anyone know why my system clock keeps resetting to default american time zone setting? I have been resetting it to my time zone for 4 days every day in a row and i have that phone only since 4 days!!
cheers

resetting clock...
Hi. When i first got my HTC P3300, it did the same every time i syncronised it, i called the sales man and he said it wat an error from Microsoft..
I think there is an update that solves it...
Hovever you can just mark the clock as "Visit" instead of "home", then the problem is solved (i´m not sure its called Visit and home because i run the Danish version of VM5)
Best regards MicTh

This is a know issue.
Set both timezones(Home and away) to the same timezone.
This should fix the problem.

Timezone problem

Hello fellows,
I wondered if anyone has this tiny problem too.
Everytime I try to place the Timezone to Paris (where I live) the phone automatically moves to the +2 zone instead of +1. We have what we call "Summer Time" here, so it's one hour more than normal.
Happend on the AT&T rom, as well as the Black X beta2.
Thanks

Have you tried to untag the flag "Automatic change time zone and clock" at the Phone setting?
It solve this issue for me
Well I tried finding it thou I didn't...
Where is this creepy thing
Go to Settings/Phone/Time Zone Tab
Yep, that's why I didn't find it there is no such tab in Black X beta 2
oh well have to wait then
You have it, but it's hidden by a registry entry.
Download and install HTCustom fro here on the XDA (It's a free utility written by one of the amazing gurus here).
In there, on one of the last tabs, is a checbox that will enable the TZ tab in your phone settings. Then you'll be able to set it.

thanks mate

Alarm rings 1hours before time set

Has anyone else had this problem,
I set me alarm for example at 8:30am, the silly thing rings at 7:30am.
This has happened to me for a few days now. i don't know how this problem came about, i have not installed anything or changed anything with the handset since it was working fine.
Also i have turned the alarms off and the handset still rings at the time i set before.
I tried changing the time and it still rings at the original time set.
This is bugging me as every morning my phone rings at a specific time with 3 alarms 5 minutes apart.
I have tried to replicate this problem by setting the alarm an hour ahead with 5 mins to spare (to the actual time) and the alarm does not ring :S
i am so confused with this problem and if anyone can help it would be very much appreciated.
Thanks guys n gals
I will go out on a limb here and guess that you have the timezone incorrect. Check to see that your time is set to the correct time zone, i.e. pacific/central/ eastern/ mountain here in America. Not sure of your Location. Let me know but I am pretty sure thats your problem
Hi thanks for the reply,
My timezones are set correct GMT London, and visiting time zone is correct also, i tried to solve the problem by setting this to London also. This did not work.
i am using the version of WM6 B&B.

Which version of B&B?
Activesync?
If the time changes after u sync,check to see if the time zone in ur PC is also same
B&B version 4.0
and the timezone on PC is also correct
The sync does not effect the time
thank you

Daylight Saving problem

Hello,
I've got a bit of a problem here. Few weeks ago we changed time because of the Daylight Saving, my mobile didn't do it automatically because every time I restart it changes the timezone to (GMT+2) Windhoek, and not the Sofia timezone (it seems they don't change time there. I've fixed that, but the problem is that, with the time change, the device changed the time of my appointments. When I edit them, it still says 9:30, but it sets the appointment for 10:30. Any suggestion how to repair that? I'm using Schap's 4.30 ROM, and I'll update to 4.31 now (I've done it some time ago, but had problems, that's why I dongraded to 4.30).
I've had similar problem.
Key issue was the Automatic Time Zone change on mobile phone settings, because it seems that not all mobile provider use a good setting. So I unchecked it, and change it myself.
Moreover, in fact you have TWO parameters; first one is your timze zone and second one is the time by itself.
As soon as you will upgrade to the very good Schap's 4.31, first adjust your TimeZone and then you time and when you will synchronise with Outlook erything will be OK.
Regards
Yep, I've done some experimenting and done that, it works now, thanks.
Yes, even though its a real PIA, I always turn off Auto Time Zone from my provider and manually set it. I even manually change to a different time zone and back if it originally got it's info from the carrier before I setup my ActiveSync.
I posted this a while back regarding this.
So, where do I find the setting to disable my Imate JASJAM to get time zone info from my carrier?

Thanks for your helpful guidance

PLease refine your problem. When does it reset?
It isn't like the other city's are still in there, but you have to swipe up or down to get the other cities?
Have you deleted London? and then it jumps back on?

If I set the city to Dublin where I live, it reverts occasionly to London. Deleting London didn't help, it came back again. It could be something I did, but I don't think so.
The only thing I can think of now is a hard reset. Maybe there wen't something wroing while setting up the rom and thus touchflow 3d. Weird problem though.
Hope, if it's touchflow 3d, they fix it soon.
Who knows what HTC has done in terms of automation... Perhaps the weather app is now tied in with your GPS location and until you get a GPS signal established it will keep reverting back to the default??
This is just me thinking out loud.
Mines working fine but then again i went in and deleted ALL he cities straight away coz they bug the heck out of me then started adding the places i wanted and visit... might be what causes it to work

I bet your right, doesnt the calender show the weather also. try getting a gps fix after re-deleting it
Hi,
Correct me if im wrong but doesnt the TP2 automatically add Your time zone (aka GMT -London) to weather? So if you add a couple of clocks say London and New York, Then the weather will add London and New York as well.
Does seem a bit silly if you cant stop it defaulting back to London for GMT though.
so can you set the home screen weather to be anywhere in the country??

Grrrr! It did it again, no reset, just normal use. I've deleted London, Paris, Tokyo and all the other places that are meant to make me think I'm part of some glamourous celb lifestyle thing. So we'll see what happens next!
Mine work just fine.try changin it at the home screen and weather panel and see if it still does the same

That's what I did. I thought it might be because the time zone is "London, Dublin, Edinburgh".
I really don't want to know that other people are having nicer weather than me
just erporting mine does not do this at all
Guys, I have problem... with city that is not in the base... any program that I tried that works fine for diamond doesn't work for TP2... touch flo just restarts when I add Durham to the base and go to touch flo weather pad it just restarts touch flo.... I tried many things...like disabling Touch flo and them editing the base... ect... but it just seems it is different with other phones( did anyone successfully added city that is not in the list?
see the wether app thread in the software section
pro2 keeps reseting to london because of igo8. just try it. change to your city, start igo8, exit it and voila, it reseted to london, except if you already have london.
bye
I had this problem too -London weather showing at the bottom of my calender Though not my preferred city. The fix I found requires a registry change. HKCU\\Software\HTC\Manila\Weather.CityList. There is a default list of cities there. I simply added a accuweather compatible code for my preferred city and calender has been well behaved since.
Also happening to me... resolved it by re-arranging the city and moving my base city as #1 in the list...
just move to London chaps - problem solved
Same issue also GMT London setting . I fixed problem going to Settings/personal/phone. Select the GSM/UMTS Services tab , On that tab is Time synchronization , From there select "automatic change time zone and clock".

Wrong Time Zone Settings for my Country

My country is Pakistan.
Its time zone is GMT + 5
But in my HTC Desire, its set as GMT + 6.
Due to this many things, most importantly received/sent SMS are not appearing correctly (they are not being sorted correctly according to time because my and sender's time zone are misaligned) ....
I have tried setting clock to network provided value, but it is not making any difference.
Can any one please help me on this, as this is most annoying feature of this phone. Other wise I love it...
Yup! Im stuck with the same issue
Can we modify time zone settings for a country?
yup i have the same issue. i just turned off automatic updates for time...
i think as pakistan tried daylight saving then undid it caused the problem
:sigh: dont know any solution
it should be +5 GMT !!
i don't know bout you but on my sense ui, the sun rise and sun set are 2 hrs delayed.
One more thing it's a problem with android not HTC desire !
On my Samsung galaxy I have the same problem
If you turn off automatic network set time and choose your timezone there, it should stick fine.
