OK guys

so here is what did after I read the thread - this issue has made me totally crazy...I ve been late for work twice because of this issue...

I am running Duttys Holy Grail 2.1 on HTC Touch HD Blackstone with radio 1.17 and I have Galarm installed.

I have disabled the Galarm, set the time back and nothing happened - at 2 AM it connected to the internet though.

Next, whit the Galarm already disabled I went into settings, clock and set the clock there to 28th march 1:59 and at 2 AM (with data connection on) bang, message appeared and the time is back to normal...

I hope this will help someone....

such a stupid issue...geeeeez...and the phone costed 560EUR...for F**K SAKE

EDIT: This is definitely gotta be the Galarm...I enabled my galarms back, set the time back through settings and no time change occured...now this bug is soooo stupid..damn
[HD2 General] luistlf:
Problem stays the same, you only need to update the weather to go back to the wrong time
[HD2 General] tfouto:
the problem is not with g-alarm, i have hard-reset the device and the first time i update connect to internet the time was wrong, even before i

installed any program. i have sent an email to HTC support. They have replied me 2 times but no solution found yet. People with this problem

should also send mail to HTC support so they can see this problem is affecting several people.
[HD2 General] tfouto:
it seems to be 2 issues. One is that Lisbon time or any portuguese city is one hour before what it should be. ex: lisbon 2pm, london 3pm when they should both be 3pm. The other issue is that even if the weather reconizes me as being in Lisbon, the world clock says i am in Casablanca.
[HD2 General] tfouto:
i think i found the problem. Portugal time is associated with Casablanca time in the database when actually it should be associated with Dublin/London. As Casablanca doesn't have DST, and London and Portugal have +1 hour DST. Before 28 March when time changed no problem occured because the time in CasaBlanca was the same as in Lisbon and London. So they have to change Portuguese cities of reference to Dublin/London. If they dont do anything we could all wait until 31 October and everything will be ok. We just need to wait a little :s.

[HD2 General] Gellenole:
that's weird, mine set and changed time -- but it went 2 hours forward instead of just 1. it's almost stupid.
[HD2 General] tfouto:
where are you from?
[HD2 General] speed200:
There must be something we can do to change this....
[HD2 General] tfouto:
perhaps hacking the database :)

i dont know if its possible to change on the HD2, this values...

we should send messages to HTC support, so they fix this soon...
[HD2 General] mcnascimento:
I don't think the problem is with HTC, but I only tested With HTC PDA's :(.

The reason I don't thing the problem is with HTC is because to me on a WM 6.1 and on a WM 6.5 device, the same bug happens if I have any alarm on the standart WM alarm (Settings>Clock & Alarms>Alarms), but if I disable the alarm I could change the time to 28/03 00:59 and it change fine to 28/03 02:00.

I made this test 10 times and the 10 times is chaged OK, I tried after that with alarm enabled 10 times and the 10 times the bug happens, finally I tried 10 times with SPB Time, cose this app create an alarm but doesn't sync it with the WM alarm, and again in 10 times it's changed OK with DST.

I made this tests in both WM 6.1 and 6.5, and even with Sence and Manilla, with Titanium, and without any today plugin, the result is always the same, with the information of a alarm enabled on the stantard WM alarm, the bug happens without that the change happens fine and according with the right DST.

Hope this could help someone to better understand what's happening.

Sorry for my english. :o

half-good news

Hi again,

I have "perfected" my previous move, and now I no longer have the time problem. It is not "the" solution, because some calendar appointments are now one hour earlier. However, it allows me to use the phone with the correct time while HTC/Microsoft or others do not solve this permanently.

Here is what I did:

1. On World Clocks, I selected another city with the same time as Lisbon (London, in my case)

2. I deleted Lisbon from World Clocks, with Options/delete cities.

3. The phone created a "city" called "My location", which has the same time as London (because London had been chosen as current location in 1.).

By staying in "my location" and not adding Lisbon, I avoid being sent to Casablanca by Settings/date & time/local time settings. Now it says I am in GMT London, Dublin.

Because the phone is on wifi connection, the time widget sees places me in Lisbon, even if I don't have Lisbon as a city on World Clocks. Conclusion: The time is right, the weather is correct, and I can sync the phone with Birdiesync/Thunderbird. I've already soft-reset it 4 times and it is still stable.

New problem

: after syncing with PC. all appointments scheduled before March 28 for a date posterior to this are now one hour earlier! As I don't have hundreds of them, I will change them manually.

I have searched the web for "DST problem" and we are not the only ones with this bug. Apparently this has also happened in the US and manufacturers and Microsoft are still blaming each other (and basically doing nothing).

I think tfouto is right about the faulty association between Lisbon and Casablanca being the issue here. He/she was not the only one to be "sent there" by his/her phone ;-), and the hypothesis makes sense.

I wrote to HTC support and mentioned this thread. I hope they read it and get inspired!!

Maybe it helped if you did the same...

Cheers

Work Around

Hello fellow victims of the timezone bug. I have made up a workaround that does work well for me.

I have disabled the Location Service in the settingsmenu. And set the timezone manually too London (this is the same as Lisbon). This way the phone will not update the timezone automatically.

But ofcourse then the phone shows my location incorrectly on the weathertab as well as in your homescreen. What you can do is add your location manually.

Then there is one more irritating thing to solve, the weather tab now shows your location and the manually set location wich sucks. Especially because Sense refuses to update the my location information in the weathertab.

To solve this I did the following.

I opened up a registry editor witch you can download from ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl

Now search for

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\

Look for the Dword called Weather.EnableCurrentLocation

and set its value to 0

This way the weather and home-tab will only show the manually input location.

It is offcourse not a real solution to the problem, but it works and is faster than waiting for HTC or Google to correct their issues.

:-)

Update: Hmm the weathertab works fine now, but the home-tab does not update. This can be solved by tapping the clock on the home screen and select your manually added city in stead of the current location.

If it still does not show up correctly, you might edit the timezone using the Weather City Editor at xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=546141

Gosh it took me a whole evening but now my phone is at least usable again. Even though I now have to add cities manually and switch between them. But that is better than having the wrong time all the time.

Let's hope there will be a real fix soon.

Location issue

I read all of your complaints but the only bug I have it's the change or not of time according to DST.

I still have My Location working great and my location is Lisbon at work and Sintra at home, and it changes in the journey between them, my timezone is London, Dublin.

And all my appointments are sync with my clock.
[HD2 General] tfouto:
There are some cities that are with wrong timezone. The cities that are in the device HD2, its possible to change it with this program:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=546141

Be careful when using this program to disable HTC Sense.

But when using My Location and living in a Portuguese it associates with GMT Casablanca, because off the server wrong association. It seems Iceland is wrong either.
[HD2 General] luistlf:
how is even possible htc still did not released a fix for this?:eek:
[HD2 General] tfouto:
What ROM do you have, people having this problem? Its an official one?
[HD2 General] Quelltextfabrik:
I had the same problem with the EnergyROM. Solved it by setting the timezone via [Start] > [Settings] > [Clock & Alarms]. When I tried to set the timezone via Sense the option of choosing the timezone was grayed out. Maybe one of you overlooked it, too, like I did :)
[HD2 General] luistlf:
I have sent several messages to HTC and till now no response. Does anyone have some feedback from them?
[HD2 General] tfouto:
I have receive several responses, but no solution found. I have been told to switch off HTC location service and several other things, but no real solution. Now they have asked some info like ROM version, and other things to investigate.
[HD2 General] doloresbf:
The same happened to me. I could not believe their solution was to switch off the services!! I complained about this, and now they are asking for the ROM etc, "to investigate".

If they would browse this thread they would probably have found out by now that they should disassociate Lisbon from Casablanca, and associate it with London instead. :S

My ROM is the last official one from the HTC Europe website (1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE). Portuguese website did not allow me to download their ROM, probably because my phone was purchased in the UK.

Cheers
[HD2 General] tfouto:
I also complain. A device as expensive as this is not a solution to stop using functionalities because of a bug. Hope they work on the fix. I used a program to change the portuguese cities to Dublin/London, and they are correct now. But when using My Location, the error occurs again because it gets a new city on server which is bad associated. I think there are other cities which are wrong as Iceland cities.

The program i have used is:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=546141.

If someone want to use it be careful to disable Sense when editing cities. And when adding a new city you have to add the correct code, or else the phone could hang. I had to make a hard-reset because of improper use.

HTC Response:

Dear Mr. Silva, Thank you for your reply, Kindly be informed that this issue will be investigated and as soon as a solution is reached we will be contacting you.
[HD2 General] solarboy:
Same here

I've got a HTC TP2 and have the same problem, Lisbon (or Faro) is associated with Casablanca time. Also when I tap the clock in the home screen in my list of cities I have all Portuguese cities 1 hour behind London, which shouldn't be the case. Sometimes when I have the clock set to "my location" it is fine, then sometimes it resets itself to 1 hour behind. I missed an appointment for a €12000 contract on Monday. I have just emailed HTC support and will see if they bother to respond.

Deactivate Internet time sync

Hi everyone,

The way I "fixed" this was deactivating the "Internet time sync" on:

Settings > Data services > Internet time sync > Uncheck the "Get time from internet"

So far so good. Did anyone try it yet?

Miguel M.
[HD2 General] doloresbf:
Hi Miguel,

Yes, we've tried that. The issue here is that we should not be forced to lose those functionalities... :-) Thanks, anyway.

HTC costumer support is now asking for my serial number... I wonder what they will ask for tomorrow!!
[HD2 General] solarboy:
HTC response

I too have been in touch with HTC, ...

Thank you for your reply,

Please note that the issue is currently under investigation and as soon as a solution is reached we will contact you.

We shall see....

I changed the settings for time zones with the program someone mentioned earlier but I was still left with the problem when selecting "my location" as my timezone. However, over the last 2 days the time seems to have fixed itself when using "My Location". This must use an online backend as it has far more cities than are contained within the database in the phone, so maybe they have fixed the online source for this data ( I hear people say it comes from Google)
[HD2 General] RLacer:
Hi

I'm having a problem (HD2) since the Winter time changed last month.:mad:

The phone didn't auto update the time and I had to change it manually.

Works fine till I update the weather application, when I do it changes back one hour... to "CASABLANCA GMT" instead of " LISBON, LONDON GMT".:confused::confused:

After that i need to go to Settings, extra, and then re-set my timezone from casablanca to london/Lisbon.

I can set it to casablanca manually and override the timezone, but then whem i syc with outlook all my appointments are one hour earlier!!!:eek:

.. and when I receive a text message it's always with the wrong hour.

I'm from Portugal and i travel a lot, so i use the weather preview a lot in "current location".

Please advise,

Ricardo
[HD2 General] solarboy:
I still haven't heard back from HTC. I still have the same problems too. Not happy.
[HD2 General] solarboy:
OK, I just tried a solution that I found here...

http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/windows-phone/f/33/t/436.aspx

Basically, I went to settings>personal>phone>timezone and I UNCHECKED the tick box. Then I went back to the homepage, tapped the clock, tapped the time on My Location, and set it to the current actual time. When I did this, the times for Faro/Lisbon etc went 1 hour ahead. Then I went back to the phone timezone setting and ticked it again. So far so good ! I've updated my weather once and it knows I'm in Silves, and it set the time to GMT London Dublin.

Now to see if it sticks.....:D
[HD2 General] solarboy:
Nope it didn't stick. I'm going to try leaving "network time" unchecked. I think here lies the problem.
[HD2 General] solarboy:
:mad: Nope sorry not a fix
[HD2 General] KapaGT:
Hello,

Also from Portugal here :) and yes I have the same problem. HTC told me that they already now about this and they are trying to solve it and release a fix. Keep the pressure, open weekly tickets, that is bound to create a fuss.

Off topic: In Portuguese ROM our memory card is named "Cartão de Memória" and it screws lots off apps that start creating "Cart" or "Cartão de Memó" in the device and it is killing me softly.. lol Have you noticed this?
[HD2 General] leodr99:
It worked for me.

on the [Start]-[Setings][Clock & Alarms] the timezone is set to Casablanca, hence the problem with the DST :)

just changed it, et voilá! all is in sync, all around (time, calendar, sms's, emails...).
[HD2 General] leodr99:
One of the reasons, that made me to purchase the WWE version of the phone, instead of the PTG.

I feel your pain m8 :|
[HD2 General] Wunderwaffe:
Is there a permanent fix for this yet? I've spent hours trying to get things to work. :mad: This is ridiculous: all they have to do is tell those idiots at Google to correct the associations of the locations with the time zones, which should have been right in the first place! But they couldn't care less, because they don't give a f*** about their customers. As long as they have big profits, screw those idiots who buy their products.

I finally managed to use "My Location" and have the my location time right, even after updating the weather, by turning off the "internet time sync" and setting the time zone to "GMT London,Dublin" manually. However, every other Portuguese city in the World Clock is one hour behind. This is BS.
[HD2 General] doloresbf:
Hello, I don't know about you, but my problem seems to be solved (knoc on wood!). I can sync time and weather, and my Lisbon time is now correct.

Cheers
[HD2 General] Wunderwaffe:
Yes, they seem to have (finally) fixed it.

Hello All,

I am having a big problem with the HTC weather application showing "current location" and city, it should use the geolocation services and tell me where I am right?

Any solutions!

Hi!

Better than a long speech, you can go seing my french webpage about it.

http://www.everyoneweb.fr/MyWidgets/

Yes I know... My page is in French but pictures are explicit.

This application is nnow free.

I don't want my project to die because it don't deserve to. Low cost is not for Android's users, that's why my app is now free. I think that we shouldn't have to pay for so expensive application like pure and other widget and custom home. If some developpers want to work with me to do more, they can write to me at mywidgets@hotmail.fr

what I want to do (but with help):

- other widget like mail viewer...

- New home which permit ListView, Animations.

Thank's for your support.

EDIT: I post some pictures of my work.

My new contact widget has no limit contact.

It is a big release with a view of the selected contact on click.

Will come in a few day a medium and a small release of my contact widget.

EDIT2: This is three screenshots of small contact widget, medium contact widget and the menu which open when you click on a contact. I will publish an English release of my work on next week on the market.

EDIT3: Actually my widget supports English. It is published whith contact's widget. It is still a beta release... but you can report to me bugs or idea to my mail MyWidgets@hotmail.fr.

EDIT4: My App is now final release. I found why I have my last bug. Tell me what you think about! I will continu my work

EDIT5: Add calendar widget in two sizes. Small and Hight. The small have a unique view but hight have three. Month view, Next event view and day view. You can click on the day you want to see in the month view.

EDIT6: I'm working on the interface. The sms widget is now skinnable.

EDIT7: Some screenshot of MyContactWidget with different Skin.
[Android Software Development] janfsd:
It's great to see you overcome the problem you had before with accessing the sms database. BTW, is the app translated into english? The description in the app market is only in french, so maybe you might want to change that too.

A recommendation though: I would consider making the beta free in order to gain more user base, and after release a paid final version. There are ways to make the app have time limit, so you could make it have like a 30 day limit, just in time when you will release the final app. It's only my advice but it is your work and your decision ;) Anyway .6 EUR seems cheap :)

You should include a QR code too. And which kind of developer are you looking for?
