Need Help!
My TP2 T-Mobile is adding an extra city on world clock. My local city is GMT -3 Porto Alegre and every day its changing to GMT -3 Greenland by itself! So the calendar weather becames to Greenland, but the weather tab keeps Porto Alegre.
Even unchecking the "automatic change time zone and clock" options on phone settings, the Greenland appears in a few hours and after every start up.
Any ideas?

The weather has stopped appearing in the calendar day view and I have no idea why. I can't find any menu options to get it back. Anyone got any ideas?
Displaying of weather depends on configuration of local time in calendar, local time put on city, name of city in panel of weather in setups of local times like

I'd noticed this had happened on my phone as well, I suspect it's related to software I've installed but I've not had the time ( or motivation) to hard reset and start again one app at a time.

I had the same issue. Discovered it is related to the clock setting. If you select GMT time it will no longer display the the weather on the day view of the calendar tab. If you set your time by city it displays the weather (for the following 4 days.).
OK.. Here is my problem.
I set my location in TF3D as Boca Raton, FL (Eastern time zone).
Everything looks great, then I notice my appointments are off by several hours.
I go into the system clock setting and notice it is set to -12 (instead of -5 which Eastern time is).
I change it to -5 and then when I go back to my home screen my clock has chaned to being several hours off.
If I go into World Clock, it shows "LOCAL TIME" correct, but the city I added (Boca Raton) as now being several hours off.
How can I make this bloody phone understand that BOCA RATON is IN THE EASTERN TIME ZONE !!!!!
I feel your pain
Anyway, I turned the bloody locations setting off, and manually selected my location.
Under settings, location settings you can turn this off.
Since my location does not work anymore, weather for My location was also not being displayed correctly, so I used below register tweak to remove the "my location" from the weather tab.
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\weather.EnableCurrentLocation set to 0
I still have "my location" under the World Clock, however have my location selected manually. This keeps time correct all the time, and shows correct weather on my animated clock.
Hope this helps.

just tell all your appointments that you got stuck in traffic and will be a few hours late...no biggie...
Actually I found the solution on here.
The cities I had been picking were ones I added using the Weather Database Editor.
The weather location database is actually a small SQL database disguised as a manila file and it is used for more than just weather (ie: World Clock). Using the Weather Database Editor to add locations only adds some info into the SQL tables such as city, state, country, and weather code, but nothing for time zone.
Using a tool called SQLLiteAdmin I opened the database (on my PC, not phone) and added in the info for timezone, etc to the cities I had previously added.
Copied manila file back to phone. Rebooted and SHA-BANG!! It was fixed.
Oh if you go to the time & date settings under the actual Settings in WM 6.5, rather than through the Manila home tab interface, you can change the timezone there without a problem and then all of your appointments are correct.
I figured this out before, forgot about it, then figured it out again and it should be locked into memory now.

Hi guys,
I am trying to figure out how to get rid of My Location from my clock and from the weather tab completely. I have tried taking off My Location in the setting and I have checked "Automatically decline location service". But I still have My Location in the clock and weather tab.
The reason I want to get rid of it is because my phone jumps 1 hour ahead at least twice a day. I have to change it back to my time zone by touching on the clock.
Also is there a way of stopping the flip back graphics of the clock?
Cheers!
Hi,
to get rid of my location from weather you have to set to 0 the following key in registry:
"HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\weather.EnableCurrentLocation" (dword)
to instruct the clock not to use my location at all but the city you manually set you have to uncheck "automatic change time zone and clock" in phone settings, time zones tab.
hope this helps,
Radu
unzip and copy file to windows directory to stop clock flip.
cool thanks alot guys!
unchecked those settings, see how it goes

Hey, i'm using an Energy Rom and I don't see the time zone setting anywhere on the phone...is it disabled for some reason? (HTC tilt2)
Hi Guys!
Any hints when current location display the correct city but in wrong timezone in clock / weather widget? If I select a neighbour city, aprox 10km away, the correct timezone is displayed.
Even if I uncheck the option to automatically update from network, due the wrong timezone, the current location still one hour less than it should be.
There is any way to change the timezone for a specific city, from GMT -4 to GMT -3???
Thanks in advance!

have you checked summer time option?
USA based "home" service. In Heathrow airport the phone showed UK time when booted up after flight. Then, without changing any settings, when I shut it down and rebooted in Amsterdam a couple of hours later it reverted back to USA time.
Stock ICS, no root. Under settings/date & time/ the tick boxes are checked for both Automatic date & time and Automatic time zone. Under the Calendar app/Settings/General Preferences/ the tick box for Use home time zone is not checked.
I have all my calendar entries tied to a time zone, some are Europe, some are USA. I travel enough to understand the need. But, calendar becomes useless if the system time doesn't recognize the time zone.
Is there another setting in there somewhere I'm missing?
I believe that it's a problem with the date/time supplied by your phone carrier.
Automatic date & time
This comes from your carrier.
MAYBE you carrier is trying to change the timezone for you...
Automatic time zone
This comes from your GPS/Phone location services.
I would disable "Automatic date & time", and keep only the "Automatic time zone".
This way, all you have to do is open some GPS based app (maps, weather, news...) to get your timezone updated automatically.
Good luck!
