I love this rom, thanks faria. How can I change the time format from 24 hrs to 12. Also, how can I change the weather to show in fahrenheit instead of celsius. Thanks to all who can help me.
looked in regional settings in settings?
there one set up such things globaly
If it could only be that easy. Global setting give me the options h/mm/ss
or hh/mm/ss both stay in 25 hr mode, I read somewhere there needs to be a tt at the end like h/mm/ss/tt but I don't know how to get it there, may be in the REG?
I did a hard reset and then I got the option for h/mm/ss/tt, I don't know why it wasn't there after the install but anyway my time issue is resolved. If I can just figure out the weather problem, I'll be 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
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.

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.
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?

Settings\Personal\Phone\Time Zones. If you don't see that tab it's most likely not enabled....
Thanks for your helpful guidance
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!)

Trust me thats the screen cause its what I use to synch my time with att with Tai's ROM
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
I've been reading myself silly trying to figure this out & my attempts at Searching haven't helped, probably because I'm not fluent enough to use the correct terms. In spite of having this device for several months, I've never learned as much as I'd like. Anyway . . .
I finally flashed the newest stock ROM from HTC several days ago. The process seemed to go fine with one exception: I keep getting a notification that I have a new Voicemail when I don't. I check -- no new Voicemail. I Dismiss, but the the notification keeps coming back periodically. Suggestions?
Other than that, things seemed to go smoothly, and I started slowly getting things back the way I like them. After reading & making sure I understood (or so I thought), I installed the .NET 3.5 Framework so I could use Crud Scraper to get rid of the stuff I clearly remembered using it for.
The .NET part went fine, and then I did the soft reset . . . and lost My Location on the Today screen that shows my weather. It now says I'm in Seattle, which I'm not -- I'm over a mountain range & about 350 miles east of Seattle. When I try to change the location, it doesn't find my town or anything in my area, for that matter..
The mysteriously (to me) reappearing Voicemail Notification is bad enough, but I really rely on the weather, particularly this time of year, and it's driving me crazy that I can't figure this out. Suggestions?
TIA
Did you try looking at the several threads on this ROM in the Rom Development forum? There's a fix in one of them for this problem.
For which problem? And, do you have any idea what thread?
And, yes, I did look in the thread I found (New ATT Tilt2 ROM) -- I believe I read every post before I flashed the latest ROM, even though much of it was over my head. That's where I learned that I had to install .NET 3.5 & reboot before CrudScraper would work.
I recall several people mentioning that the My Location worked flawlessly & how great it was having the location, and I read where one or two people seemed to be having the same weather problem I'm having, but I didn't see an answer. I read in one of the forums that there seems to be a bug (although not confined to the latest ROM) in certain parts of the world, and I read a thread where there seemed to by a problem with My Location in a cooked ROM that might or might not have been related to GPS not working. I read something else where My Location wouldn't work with 3G, only with Wi-Fi, so I tried that, even though My Location was working just fine after I flashed to the latest ROM -- that didn't help.
So, it's not like I'm asking because I hadn't already tried to find solutions myself. I'm not doubting that there are answers to both of my issues but rather that after spending several hours over the weekend trying to find the solutions, I've been miserably unsuccessful. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked.

For the My Location feature, only part of the service is understood. For the most part, the location is determined by the cell towers your device connects to. It depends on where you are as well as the signal strength. Sometimes the request is not sent or received to/from the tower(s). It is more accurate usually when 3G is turned off. The alternative is to add your city manually. If the location servers can't figure out where you are, then it won't work.
Normally the stock ROMs fix this and work wonderfully after flashing. The best solution to this is to turn off 3G to get a fix or find your city manually.

I'm feeling really stupid here, but being a glutton for punishment, I'll keep trying.
Is it possible that maybe there was something wrong with the towers here that just happened to coincide with the soft reboot after installing .NET? The reason I ask is that My Location is now correct. Yay! That would be just my luck: bad timing.
Any suggestions about the incorrect Voice Mail notification? It for sure comes back each time I power up the phone. It seems to me it also reappears at other times, but I'm not positive about that -- I'm going to try to pay better attention.

Make sure to install .NET CF 3.5 to the device and not the storage card. You'll then need to restart, if it doesn't ask you to do so. You then need to force it to use 3.5 over 2.0. Use a registry editor and navigate to HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.NETCompactFramework. Change the DWORD data of entry 2.0.7045.00 from 1 to 0. Then change the DWORD data of entry 3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1 and then reset. This disables 2.0 and enables 3.5.
For a decent registry editor that can be used from the PC side, check out CERegEditor if you don't already have an editor of choice.
For the voicemail problem, there are two known solutions. You can either have someone call and leave you a voicemail. You would then check it and delete it. You can also simply call your provider and have them reset your voicemail account. Either one should work.
If neither of those options works for/appeals to you, you can give this a shot. There are no guarantees that it won't come back after a soft reset, though. Using a Registry editor, navigate to the following keys:
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line1\Unread
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line2\Unread
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Total\Unread
There should be a value name "Count" with a REG_DWORD value
Change value to 0 in decimal or 00 in Hex.
It should remove voicemail notification icon from the taskbar.

Many thanks! For the Voicemail, I used method one, and it worked
And, thanks for the instructions (and the reg edit program suggestion) to force use of .NET CF 3.5 because I missed that part -- yikes.
I'm on a dedicated mission to cut down on the elecronics I have to carry around, so I need to learn more about the features of the Tilt2 because if I can just figure things out (which I've not forced myself to do), the Tilt2 will, I think, be able to replace my PDA & iPhone.
Anyway, thanks again for your help!
