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

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.
When I reboot my phone it goes to mountain time. I live in Pacific time but it keeps defaulting? Any ideas?
Mine too. It changes to Moscow althouth I select +2GMT. This happens only with Schaps ROM. I tried official, VP3G and it was ok.

Mine has been changing to -6 from -7 on it's own the last few days too.
My only solution was to disable the get time and date from the provider option.
Haven't had a problem since.
I am assuming they have a tower pushing out the wrong timezone or something.

Where would I find that option?
Start, Settings, Phone.
Then make your way over to the Time Zones tab and un-check the box.

Some users might report this tab doesn't exist. If it doesn't, a reg edit is needed to enable it.

I dont have that tab. I know how to reg edit but where do I find it and what should I change?
Timezone and time update
In the branch HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting Change the value of the Key "ShowTimeZonesPage" to value of 1 (dword). Close your registry editor (no reset required) and tap START-SETTINGS-PHONE, there should be a new tab where you can automatically set the phone to get time and timezone information from the network. Really useful for me as I do extensive travelling. Tested on WM5

Even after disabling this, mine still changes
Mine is a slightly unusual issue but is related to the timezone issue.
I live in Sydney, Australia (GMT +10) and my phone keeps reverting BACK to Vladivostok (GMT +10) which you may say is 'so what...they are the same time zones' but the issue is daylight savings which makes Sydney effectively +11 and when the phone reverts to my mate Vlad...the times are out by an hour.
As this is my diary 'brain' its beginning to become quite an issue.
Also using Schaps 4.20 ROM in a Dopod 838Pro.
Otherwise great ROM
Cheers Spocky
sync time isues?
This is because the time zone between your computer & pda are different.
I have searched for the answer and have seen that you need to go to Settings>Personal>Phone>Time Zone and check a button that says to sync with tower (or something similar). I am using TAI's latest 6.5 and I can't find a Time Zone tab/button/anything. Anyone else have this problem with a 6.5 beta?
Thanks for any help.

Surprising this can be a little over looked..Install Advanced Config 3.3 use Device Update if you don't already have it.
In advanced config under the phone settings look for
'Show NITZ page' and set it to yes and save/restart
then you will have the Time Zone tab you are missing..
Thanks, I installed Advanced Config, but was thinking a setting within it to do the syncing with local time or something... NITZ, huh? I guess I didn't think of that.
I will give it a try when I get home (I left my phone at home accidently and I feel so naked!)

Once u make that change in advanced config and reset when you goto
Settings>Personal>Phone>Time Zone
the Time Zone tab will actually b there..
thanks for a lot, have disable the automatically update, hopefully i will not get into the same problem again
Hi all,
Since I installed wm 6.5 (Rom Officiel), the option to answer phone automatically doesn't work anymore .
i'm sorry of that, because i'm a biker and it's very useful.
A hard reset (as asked by the service support) did not change anything.
they ask me now to return the device which seems to be a hardware problem no ?
Are you involved of that problem? any idea to solve it without sending it?
Thanks and Best regards from France
Humm !
I'm surprised that this fonction doesn't interest more people; because after quick investigation, i'm not alone with that problem using wm 6.5 .
Is that happen only with the french version?
I have the same problem with diamond 2 and wm 6.5. Did you find any solution?

Same problem here. Updated using UK Vodafone upgrade and now Auto Pickup cannot be selected.
Can anyone help as this is a big problem. If you have to touch your phone to answer a call while you are driving and you get caught, you are in big trouble.
Could someone check their registry
HKCU\ControlPanel\AutoPickUp
and tell us exactly what is in there. Mine is empty and I think this might be part of the problem.
Thanks

I just checked and mine is blank too...on a US-model T-mobile TP2 with the stock 6.1 ROM. I've never used the function before though, so I can't really say whether it is/was available to me...I'm not even sure where the option to use that is
You guys might want to check out the app in THIS thread, it supposedly makes it easy to access the auto-answer, so it might (...or might not) serve as a work-around for you
EDIT: I just found the toggle for auto-answer in the phone settings...and even though I have that registry entry blank like the rest of you, I still have the option of chosing auto-answer in the phone settings.
Sorry if you did this but can you go back to the setting and make sure it stayed "ticked". What happens on mine is that I tick the box and it shows a tick but if you come out of setup then go back in the tick has gone.

Hey man, sorry about that, I just missed it when you asked that the first time
I just now double-checked, and yes, the tick mark does persist in the Automatic Pickup box in phone settings, even through a soft-reset.
But...even when the tick mark is there, no value appears in the registry entry you mentioned and...it still doesn't work I tried it with the auto-answer interval set at 0, 1, and 2 seconds, and it never answered my test calls.
So...6.1 doesn't work any better, 6.5 is just more honest with you by not letting the setting appear like it's working
p.s. feel free to PM me if you ever need feedback from me and haven't heard anything in a day or two...probably means it just got lost in the shuffle on my end.

Hi, I've noticed that after 1.1. 2013, the time on my Touch Pro 2 keeps getting messed up. For example, it's 12:27. On my phone, it's 14:27. Every time I adjust the time manually, it updates back to wrong time within an our or less. I tried changing my GMT (the correct one is GMT+1, but it changes too plus it changes time of my appointments.
I am not the only one with this problem, my friend keeps getting three hours forward instead of two like I do.
Any solutions to this problem, please?

Time on the phone should be provided over and synced to the network. Have you called your provided to see if they are having any issues with their network/servers?

I've heard some GSM provider's flat-out don't do this... So if the OP is in a small country or something with a small GSM provider... yea.
With CDMA, the network time is always provided. Whether it's always accurate or not... is another issue . I've never really had much issue with Sprint providing the right time - even when I am traveling... Phone has always shown the correct time - so long as I have service.

I bet there is an app you can get that will sync the phone to an atomic clock somewhere.
Well, I tried gTimeSync, but the thing is, I still have to update the time after restart. :-/ Well, at least I can correctly update time.
I have the same problem on the same phone, Hungarian Vodafone card..
Somtimes the clock is 1 hour out, sometimes 2... If I change the GMT+ setting, it is going back to the Hungarian one..
Windows Mobile problem I think, same problem with 2 different Vodafone cards, the cards are OK in my HTC HD2.
A registry hack maybe?
Solution!

The answer to my problem was this picture - http://www.mydigitallife.us/time zone setting.jpg from another topic here on xda forums.
Start - Settings - Personal - Phone - Time Zones - "Automatic change of time zone and clock." - unlock this option and there is our salvation.
Unfortunately, the time probably won't change automatically from summer/winter time, but it's still better than having permanently incorrect time.
Well, see you when I come up to another problem or I just happen to roam these forums.
