Mine changed automatically - but not at 02:00 BST - more like 08:00 - and I do use Internet time sync.
[HD2 General] RE795:
Mine changed time automatically (with a Note that it had done so and to check that time was correct) at 01:00...

I do not use internet time...

I have Time Synchronization checked in: settings>phone>gsm/umts services...

Regards.
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
mine change itself automaticaly, i didint realise, i was drunk so changed it myself aswell
[HD2 General] ScoobyBear:
Mine did not change automatically even thou I have it set to sync with Internet :(

Wird... All my other WinMobile unite I have had have done this automatically.

Isn't it supposed to change at 3am TO 2am?
[HD2 General] dorigny:
Same bug in France, even if I uncheck the sync internet time, it changes automaticaly...

There is no "manual" mode ?
[HD2 General] snappyfool:
No. Clocks here are always changed at 1am GMT. As we were in BST (GMT+1) it changed at 2am, back to 1am.
[HD2 General] Hulmeman:
Clock adjust.

Mine updated itself automatically at 0200 hours after I synced my phone.:confused:
[HD2 General] MDG_HD2:
I have a different question guys. I hope you guys help...

Yesterday I did change time by myself to winter time (1 hour retard) and when I woke up it has changed 1 more hour retard again.

here we go...

Today afternoon, I updated Cookie's Home tab and Editor...

And I realize just now, time is always changing itself... every 10-20 min, only hour advance 1 hour. I mean it's like time working very very fast.

I cannot determine it's from CHT or any other problem ?

At the moment I'm just waiting. I mean I will not touch and see what will happen...
[HD2 General] dorigny:
So, does someone know is this bug's from CHT ? Because I am pretty sure that we all have it !
[HD2 General] Krle011:
Mine didn't changed so I had to do it myself but now I have a very strange problem with messages, something is wrong with timestamp so when someone replies it shows -1 hour..

Anyone has the same problem??
[HD2 General] halloj:
Where do you uncheck automatic internet time in an HD2?

Thanks.
[HD2 General] halloj:
I've saw the same thing happen today to my HD2?
[HD2 General] Twardy74:
I've got exactly the same issue.
[HD2 General] adis1987:
How can something simple like this, be so problematic? My time on my HD2 is behaving strange. I set the time by my self to 19..., when I then looked at the time after around 20min, the time stood at 22... something. Wtf?

I'm dissapointed, will never ever trust this function again.
[HD2 General] RichardC:
I've been pulling my hair out all day, trying to fix this 'randomly changing hour' problem. I think I might have found a solution:

Go to Phone/Menu/Options/Menu/Network Selection/GSM-UMTS Services/Time Synchronisation/ and set it to unchecked.

My time has not changed since.

Good luck...
[HD2 General] 200mpx:
Also have a problem with one hour ahead after I changed it to winter time. I syncronazed many time through Chronos, but some time after that I/m noticing that my time is one hour ahead. No CHT installed
[HD2 General] adis1987:
Ohh! Nice, seam to be working! I also have to turn off the "network time syns".
[HD2 General] 200mpx:
It's working but what's a pity that there is one more bug in our device :(
[HD2 General] adis1987:
Hmm, the bug is on the operator, the phone is working as it should. Just taking the local time from the operator. I think :)
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
Mine did change correctly, then at some point it started to display the time wrong (1hr ahead). Turned all the auto ****e off and set it manually but text messages (and probably emails) 1hr ahead.

Some times I think HTC are a bunch of idiots but I still love my phone lol.

Update: Used my own advise from here:

Emails still 1hr forward though :(
[HD2 General] MDG_HD2:
After I deleted google translator app and ramcleaner... time option is working properly. Nothing else changed.
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
Don't have any of them installed.
[HD2 General] dorigny:
Me neither...
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
I'd be happy if anyone knew how to offset the email timestamp :).
[HD2 General] TheSKYY:
I have the same issue and I'm really pissed about this!! How can something simple like this happen? It seems to be a problem for all HD2 users, because the 2 friends of mine who also have one have the same problem.....WTF!!

The thing is my HD2 changed the time correctly and until this morning everything was fine and then this morning it has changed back to the wrong time.....WHY?
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
Mine changed automatically but then I found later in the day it had set itself one housr forward....so I manually set it back.

Then later I found it was 1 hour forward again so I decided to restart to see if it would pick up the correct local time (GMT) and reset.

Instead it went a further hour forward (ie GMT+2!!).

Manually reset and it was fine for the rest of the day but found that this morning it had gone forward an hour again.

I am going to uncheck internet time synch and reset it but anyone knowing why it is happening I would appreciate it
[HD2 General] ceh01:
time wrong but not automaticly changed

Hello,

my HD2 did not changed to wintertime automaticly, option was not marked at "synch time" under GSM/UMTS services.

So I deciced to change the time manualy, but was unhappy :-)

Today I changed the time 3 hours backwards for testpurposes and changed a reg key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] "AutoDST"= from 0 to 1

Now I am happy ;-)

HtH

ceh
[HD2 General] matty538:
Im in the UK and on Orange, my time didnt update automatically, I dont have sync internet time checked but I do have the time sync under operator settings ticked.

I changed the time manually however galarm didnt like this and showed the wrong time to the next alarm.

I restarted my phone and the time jumped forward 1 hour, I sync my phone with the laptop and the time shows correctly, 20 min later it was an hour forward again.

I did a hard reset thinking it was something id installed but still the same problem.

The only solution Iv found is to disable operator time and internet time sync and everything seems fine. I cant see it being the operator as my other Orange phone which uses operator time shows correctly.

Strangly booting into Android an the time shows correctly so I firmly believe its a win mo problem.
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
where do you find the operator settings please?
[HD2 General] michael.scholze:
Not changed automatically

I have a Diamond and the HD2, the Diamond has changed and the HD2 not.

But this is not a Problem at all, if i have 2 times a year to adjust a clock. The Problem for me is, that i was in Kazakhstan 3 weeks ago, and that windows has a different timezone for Almaty and Astana, even when Kazahkstan has on timezone only since years. The same happens in Iran, where is a summertime, but microsoft dont want to know about it.

greetings to the world,

Michael
[HD2 General] michael.scholze:
Wintertime does not exist

Just to say: we have a wintertime? NO! We have a Summertime and the Normal Time. Its in Central Europe the CEST and CET. The Wintertime was existing, as i know, in Brasil and Egypt, as they changed again in November to February in the other Direction for Wintertime. But this is not happen anymore.

Greetings,

Michael

there you find time-sync.. am on swedish rom so all steps may not be exact translation.
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
Excellent thanks very much, that's sorted the timestamp's (SMS+Email) out :)
[HD2 General] bart123456:
Same issue here, on stock dutch ROM. Just changed the auto synch with operator option to unchecked, we'll see if that does the job.

Is this the first time this issue occures? My point beeing that this issue may have come with ROM updates since its first release?
[HD2 General] speechless2010:
Very Disappointed on HTC HD2!!!

What happen on my HD2 was exactly the same to your case..its suppose just a simple thing for all the smartphone as the time changed automatically without any issue. time changed fine on my Sony Ericson X10 mini and Iphone 3GS! only my HD2 causing a problem!!! What am I going to do is unchecked the Time Sync under the GSM/UTMS setting! hope this help!
[HD2 General] shemeri:
I have the same problem. It keeps changing an hour ahead. I have installed Cooked Home tabs as well.

So I followed the registry modifications and it works. It says HomeDST in my phone and not AutoDST
[HD2 General] novaci:
I'm having this same issue and the time keeps jumping forward an hour no matter what I try. Even the registry edit didnt solve the problem.

Has anyone found the culprit? Are you using the latest CHT or perhaps G-Alarm? I have both of those on my phone and I can't think of anything else that could be the cause. The phone even gets network time wrong, even though if I try it on my old Touch Diamond, the time is correct. :confused:
[HD2 General] Deltang:
I keep changing mine manually, but every time I soft reset, it goes ahead an hour????
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
how did anyone come to the conclusion that this is cht's fault...?

reg edits seem to have worked.....

lucky I wasnt relying on my alarm this morning.....
[HD2 General] troed:
Same problem here: on my Blackstone with G10 Dusk Ultimate ROM everything is fine, as well as on my wifes Desire, only my HD 2 on Stock-ROM 1.66 causes problems as posted here.

Funny thing: unchecked gsm- sync as described here but DDT Weatherpanel still shows local time one hour ahead ..........

So we have to dig deeper: what the heck is the time source in the ROM And what in different apps ?
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
i got the same thing with the softreset lol.

it changed the time automatically on sunday, thatw as just awsome. turned on the phone, and got a message that the new time was set.

but now, i restarted the phone, and suddenly it was again 1h+

then i restarted again.. then t was 2h+ XD

got CHT installed too btw, but i dont think thats the prob :P
[HD2 General] mikkeltysland:
Same problem in Norway...

Me, my sister, and both my colleagues have all the same problem. The clock did not change one hour back by it self, so I did it manually. Then a few hours later it had changed it self 5-6 hours ahead!! I set i back again, before it again changed it self two hours ahead. We all use the SPB Mobile Shell and the SPB alarmclock, but I dont think thats the issues. I saw the weather was updated three minutes earlier when the clock changed it self ahead, so I thought the weather sync maybe had something to do with it. Any ideas guys?
[HD2 General] DN41:
mine asked me, if its allowed to switch to winter time..i ticked yes and it changed it :P

DN41
[HD2 General] troed:
well, mine did that too but still jumps one hour ahead after manual correction. Funny, did not happen when changed from winter to summer time in spring.

So maybe a principle bug ?

We should start to collect infos if this happens only in stock roms or also in cooked ones, different carriers etc.

Did anyone already contact HTC support ?
[HD2 General] shemeri:
the problem is that when time changed, it said summertime where it is actually changing to wintertime. So it must be it which causes the problem and therefor it sets time one hour ahead!

Registry change fixed my problem.
[HD2 General] troed:
Now I changed settings in registry and it seems to work

BUT: in 1.66 ROM Ger it says NOT AutoDST but HOMEDST and value WAS. on 1 and I changed to 0.

Seems ther are different regs in different ROMS ....... but anyway, whatever key is listed in HKLM.......Microsoft/clock ( AutoDST or HomeDST ) the value has to be changed .........

Restarted now several times and now shows the correct time for all cities I have registered .............
[HD2 General] pedroxxx:
time is relative in HTC univers too :)

I woke up earlier today because on the device was still summeritme. Not a big deal, hour later it will be bigger problem :) I thought it was just sort of alarm bug, but sence clock shows the same time.

So I was trying to change it manually in settings-> Date&Time ->Local time settings, and suprise suprise :) there was correct time !???

So I got back to home screen and sence clock shows ... hmmm ... correct time! Explain me this :)

I start to think that sence did not use device time and make some local copy and therefore were some alarm bugs and of course problem at this summertime/wintertime maneuvers :)

Did anyone in HTC even test this device's firmware! After one year strugling with wird effects and bugs, I have to say it is most unreliable device I had in my life. It is nice, I love it, but I can't trust any feature it supose to have, because somtimes something just don't work :)

For example faceboook contact had no picture and album told me I have no frieds to show pictures, it took two-three days, no restart no updates were helpfull. Facebook itself on device was working, only sense integration doesn't. And today it works again without any fixing etc.

I spend in roaming 50EUR just beacuse during free WIFI session HD2 just swith my internet to data connection and rest of the browsing cost me extra money.

I know it is complicated device, but these thinks are REALLY anoying.
[HD2 General] t00ms:
Hi, same problem here (time keeps adding one hour, although it looks like it never gets further than +3 hours)

HD2

Rom : Netdrg 3.a

Provider : Bouygues Télécom (France)

Manila : 2.5.20131332.0

System version : 5.2.23568.5.5.0

Radio : 2.12.50.02_2

Protocole version : 15.40.50.07U

Using CHT 1.8.5.0 and editor 1.8.5.1

Installed CHT Scheduler but I don't use it

What I tried :

- Paramètres\Services de données\Synchronisation de l'heure\ and unchecked option "Permettre l'utilisation de la valeur du réseau pour mettre à jour l'heure"

Didn't work. (sticking with "unchecked" now)

(Could be translated this way : settings\data services\time synchronization\ unchecked option "Allow the use of network value to update time"

- Changed registry value [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] "HomeDST"= from 0 to 1 and 1 to 0 (sticking with 0 now)

- Changed registry value [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Clock] "NetworkTimeSync"= from 1 to 0 (sticking with 0 now)

Nothing of the above worked !!!

I can't try this "settings/other(more)/phone/GSMutms service/time-sync" because there is no "time-sync" service in the list

For now, I manually set the clock 3 hours earlier (since I noticed the clock never bugged more than 3 hours ahead) and after 3 soft resets (each one adding 1 hour) it seems to be stuck on the correct time till now.

Why don't we all post our configuration to see what we have in common ? (ROM, CHT etc)
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
I had some confusion with this too, I have both entrys in my registry, one was at 1 the other at 0 so I just reversed the values on both and now it seems to be ok.

The email sms timestamp is still an hour out though but I can live with that tbh...

Edit; timestamp seems ok now...... v weird......
[HD2 General] kossu_htc:
I have contacted HTC support, but so far I haven't got any answer. We shouldn't need to go and do editing on the registry for this kind of basic thing. :(
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
changed HKLM/Software/Microsoft/HOMEDST from 0 to 1

seems to work now too

weird thing lol

its a bit sad.. cause the time was one of the ONLY things i really full trusted in windows mobile. even if everything works for me, i never know if its really working or not..

now even the clock got problems ;(
[HD2 General] hagba:
Try this must work"

Settings/All settings/Personal/Phone/GSM-UMTS services/Time Synchronisation/Get Settings and set it to unchecked.
[HD2 General] halloj:
I've found it earlier and changed it, thanks anyway.
[HD2 General] SpAwN_CQN:
The issue is, at least for me, after Settings/All settings/Personal/Phone/ I don't have : GSM-UMTS services/Time Synchronisation/Get Settings

(With a NRG ROM)
[HD2 General] t00ms:
Just like you, I don't have the service "Time Synchronisation" in the list found there "Settings/All settings/Personal/Phone/GSM-UMTS services".

Using Netdrg 3.a
[HD2 General] luckyuser:
Same problem here with timesetting!

Registry tweak also works for me, but not for Pockectshield and G-Alarm:confused:clock is 1 hour behind????????????????
[HD2 General] kossu_htc:
Got an answer:

Dear ******,

We have started to receive reports about it.

We are currently investigating this issue.

It is not a fault of a specific ROM.

What you need to do at the moment is:

Settings -> Data services -> Time synchronization -> Untick all here

Settings -> Menu -> All settings -> Personal/Private -> Phone -> GSM & UMTS Services -> Time synchronization -> Get settings -> Untick all here

Now just to set the correct clock then it should work.

We are also forwarding all of these cases to the developers so they can have a look at it.

To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number **************.

Sincerely,

Adrian

HTC
[HD2 General] SpAwN_CQN:
How should we do without this path?

Settings -> Menu -> All settings -> Personal/Private -> Phone -> GSM & UMTS Services -> Time synchronization -> Get settings
[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
This happened to me last time it changed, and AGAIN this time, had to untick time sync....stupid....you would have thought sommit that simply would be easy to do automatically, well on most other fones it does anyway!

Stupid daylight savings....lol
[HD2 General] publicbrain:
Tried everything described here. After I changed the regkey (HKLM/Software/Microsoft/HOMEDST from 0 to 1) I thought everything was OK until I send my first SMS. ...again my cellphone changes its time...

So now I will switch off Time synchronization.
[HD2 General] halloj:

Slide up and it will be visible.
[HD2 General] Prockkaii:
After a soft reset, does the case box auto check himself?

Maybe I'm the only one who had this issue...
[HD2 General] SpAwN_CQN:
It's not, what I have when I access the Phone settings is a s follows :

Phone (Ringtones)

Services

Network

Nothing more, nothing less....
[HD2 General] novaci:
My phone just randomly set itself to the correct time while sitting idle on my desk.

I guess it was magic since I did absolutely nothing to it and had even rolled back all the changes I tried to fix it in the first place and reset the phone several times. :confused:
[HD2 General] limitless:
I'm using an NRG rom and had the same thing: nothing changed on Sunday, then I changed it manually.

Then, Monday and today, the time just changed some time during the morning to a few hours later (my timezone is UTC+1). This has happened to a couple of friends that have HD2s and also to one HD Mini with *stock ROMs*, this is not related to CHT at all.

But it's damn annoying, I don't have internet time sync enabled and I don't have the other phone setting... I guess I'll just have to try the registry stuff, thanks guys.
[HD2 General] m4sta2k:
omg I have even hardreset the phone ( htc hd2 ) but the time bug is still there, I did not know what the time was today , asked people whole day :P

thats just stupid
[HD2 General] ricpennell:
Hi

I have made the changes outlined in all of the posts above and have continued to get the time resetting itself back to summer time (+1 hour).

However I have found that it does seem to happen after the weather has updated for my location. If I disable google my location then the time doesnt seem to reset.

I did however quite like to have the weather updates.

I did notice the same problems when the clocks changed in the UK in the spring, but then it settled down, so perhaps its down to google?
[HD2 General] MrTweety:
I've got the same issue, in my case the time increases until being 5 hours onwards.

Even when I sync it manually on the network it's already + 1 hour.

In the same time I sync manually my wife's desire and the time is correct, on the same operator. so it's definitively not an operator issue.

The registry changes did nothing on my phone.......

And one thing more, on my locations, i have several cities in france and also london, and all my locations have a +1 hour offset, now it's 19h03 here in bordeaux, and I read 20h03 for Bordeaux and 19h03 for london (however, it's only 18h03 in London).

annoying. I'll disable all the time sync stuff, but that's not a suitable solution to the problem.
[HD2 General] Don_Zakaria:
same here...
[HD2 General] error23:
It´s a confirmed Bug

HTC promised to release a fix within the next 7 days !

I also have this problem, and when googling around i found a german forum where the guys have the same problems, too

They called HTC support and got that promise...

Let´s wait and see

Workaround (also recommended by HTC Supp): disabling automatic time sync in the phone settings

(-> settings -> menu -> more ->personal settings -> phone -> GSM/UMTS Services -> Time Sync) I hope i translated correct...i´m using a german ROM...

good luck and may we have patience :-)

btw: a hard reset doesn´t help ( wish i would have googled before doing that *g*)
[HD2 General] halloj:
Get into services and slide up.
[HD2 General] Bedwej:
I have this problem and I'm on CHT v1.8.5 :(
[HD2 General] jurjenhoekstra:
@RichardC: thxs for the solution: Go to Phone/Menu/Options/Menu/Network Selection/GSM-UMTS Services/Time Synchronisation/ and set it to unchecked. It worked for me as well.
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
I don't have CHT or G-Alarm

I unticked the internet sync as advised last page and that has worked.
[HD2 General] t00ms:
No slide possible, the "time-sync" service simply doesn't exist. (Talking about "settings/other(more)/phone/GSMutms service/time-sync".)

Does anyone know another way to have this time-sync setting changed ? (Registry ?)

(Manually setting to 3 hours earlier and letting the bug add 3 hours allows me to get back to the correct time... until I sync with my laptop.)

[HD2 General] lyubohar:
Changing Home DST from 1 to 0 in registry (as per advised early in the thread) fixed it for me. No need to change automatic zone or automatic time. They both stay "on" and the time does not change by itself anymore.

Piece of advise: read the whole thread first instead of posting "oh, I have the same issue" replies which serve no purpose. Reasons:

1) you'll probably find answers to most of the questions you are asking

2) the thread will stop growing like crazy, which would make other people's life easier when doing 1)

Oh, and some versions DON'T have UMTS/GSM menu. Live with it, no one could materialize it for you if you don't have it. And yes, there is a registry setting, which brings us back to "read the entire thread and stop posting" point :)
[HD2 General] SpAwN_CQN:

I use SPB Mobileshell, and therfore I don't have the settings tab from Sense. I managed to set the GSM & UMTS settings, but the first one I cant seem to find. I use startmenu-> settings - and then Im at all settings. How do I get to data services?
[HD2 General] Hodo65:
-> SpAwN_CQN

Try this:

- in registry editor go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\ShowNITZPage

- set to 1

- softreset

Should it occur ...
[HD2 General] goosefreak:
Same Problem here.

I had CHT 1.8.5 and G-Alarm.

First I disabeld

* Settings -> Data services -> Time synchronization

* Settings -> Menu -> All settings -> Personal/Private -> Phone -> GSM & UMTS Services -> Time synchronization -> Get settings

But then after reboot the HD2 almost freezes, the four-colors-Indicator rotates on and on. I suggest that G-Alarm tries to sync the time online but can't because the settings are off ?

After I uninstalled G-Alarm everything works fine. I have both settings "ON" and it shows the correct time, even after some reboots.
