Hi all,
I have upgraded my Mogul ROM to DCD's and everything worked very well. However, I have selected NO Time Synchronization with the mobile provider but somehow the Mogul kept on doing that.
Example:
1. Setup time for 9:10 (10 min. faster)
2. At random time, the mogul will sync with the time server and reset the clock to actual time (NOT 10 min. faster)
I already DESELECT Time Synchronization in Settings -> Phone. I also checked app. that have time sync capabilities and disable those. These are:
- SBSH Pocket Weather
- Spb Time
can anyone help?
Anyone have input?

So every few days my Titan will default to the Atlantic time zone instead of Eastern time, thus making my time off 1 hour. Very irritating indeed! I've disabled automatic time updates however it's still changing by itself. Any ideas? I'm running DCD 3.2.6.
Maybe.
If you go to phone -> menu -> options -> Services -> time synchronizations -> Get Settings
If the setting is on to synch time to the mobile network, try to turn it off.
Maybe.
Thanks for the response, but from my original post: "I've disabled automatic time updates". That's clearly not the problem, as it's been disabled for quite some time.

Sorry, I'm blind.
When I read that I was thinking you meant the time update in activesync.
Can it be related to activesync?
As far as I know Activesync doesn't change system time automatically or otherwise for that matter?!? If it does please let me know.

Yes it can.
Sync the PDA.
Go to Activesync -> Tools -> Options
Select the PC name you are syncing with. Then select 'settings'. There is a check box for "sync date & time" there.
Actually, it does. I'm in Mexico city and AS will change the time zone for my mogul every time I sync to match the time zone on my PC. That stopped last week though; since we went out of (or is it into??) DST again this Sunday.
Older version of WinMo (i.e. 2003 and 5) made this change permanent, but I keep mine with auto time updates and it reverts back to the proper time when I turn the screen off and on again after the sync is finished.
Also, Outlook needs to be patched for proper sync to occur. Check this Microsoft article to correct the problem.
Let us know if this helped.
are you using garmin mobile xt? there was an issue of this happening, although it was strictly to 8:00 time change it might be something to look at .
Nope, I don't use Garmin XT, nor do I sync with my computer by plugging it in and using ActiveSync with a cable. Ever since I started using an Exchange Server I just sync the data that way. Strange thing is, the date hasn't had a random change in over a week now, while other weeks it would change on a daily basis. Bizarro!
Hello,
I was unsure of which thread category to post this, so I did a couple, Hacking and this ROM, sorry if this is misplaced. Correction and criticism welcomed.
Here is the issue...
Have a AT&T Fuze with the NRG v2.0 41609 ROM. Running MSO2007, specifically Outlook 2007 through Exchange on my company's network. I do not know what Exchange server version we are running.
On occasion, perhaps 1-2 times per day I must completely resync my Fuze contacts, calendar, etc, etc with Outlook 2007. Why? The "server" changed. Sorry, the error message I recently got and have gotten in the past essentially says the data on the server has changed and I must resync all of the data the Fuze. I do not recall the EXACT message. Bottom line though is nothing "changed" at least by me.
Also, under the Settings > Connections there is a "Edit my Proxy setting choice and it auto checks and completes an entry xxxxxxx.com for the server address. I have unchecked, rechecked, etc hoping this helps aovid this regular resync.
Lastly, the resync takes about 90 minutes given all of the contacts, calendar, email and if it did not take so long I would not fret about it.
So why and why might I change to avoid this.
Thanks in advance,

P.S. I search but frankly was uncertain what to put as search words to increase the applicable hits
Picture has been added.
I had the same problem often with my previious phone Motorola Q6h. However, I don't remember how I have dealt with it. Try to syncronize by bluetooth...
This is an old bug. It is across XP, Vista, Vista 64 bit, WM 5.0, 6.1 & 6.5.
There are a couple of alternatives. Most report that using BlueTooth solves the problem. Another option is to use Emoze, but that is not flawless either. My fix is less friendly, but has worked for me 100% of the time. I do this every time I flash a new ROM.
Do the following:
1) Hard Reset - I know, a pain.
2) Set Owner information
3) delete old partnership on PC
4) reboot PC
5) connect phone to PC and select default sync options. After initial sync, with the phone still connected, on the PC go to ActiveSync or WM Device Center and change your sync options to your own liking; 2 weeks of email, notes etc...
6) let it fully sync
7) after it does the second full sync (still first connection) disconnect the phone
8) On the phone, Start>Settings>Connections>USB to PC> deselect "enable Faster transfer" or "Advanced Networking" depending on 6.5 or 6.1.
9) >OK - Soft reset
10) after phone comes back to life reconnect to PC and syncing should work fine.
I think the problem has to do with timing on the faster USB transfer rate. The PC is expecting a response and when the phone does not give it fast enough, it throws an error and you get to sync from scratch.
The only downside I have found for not having the faster transfer rate is it takes a bit longer to sync. That is why I like to change to my options (step 5) before I disconnect the first time. The big transfer is faster. After that it is just updates, so speed is not as important.
The only other down side is that if you own a RedFly, it requires the Advanced Connection which screws up your activesync. But the RedFly does not work well with the Touch Pro anyway and not at all with WM 6.5.
Hopefully this will work for you.

90 Mins for a sync? Crap... Do you have a large number of contacts (how many), or calandar items, or email? THe most mine has ever taken is about 2 minutes to do its initial sync OTA, not on a PC.
Are you syncing OTA or connecting to on a PC?
Guys, thanks of the help on the ActiveSync issue. I fashed a new NRG ROM and so far all is ok with thew sync. I do have some other OCD items that I am working on, like all blue highlights, blue / black Tachi phone, getting HTC Blue.task to be blue, EzInput 2.0 FULL (vs. compact) with arrows and blue character key press, etc, etc so so far no AS issues.
As far as how much stuff I have?
1600 contacts
2500 calendar items
100 emails (only Ocutlook IN and OUT boxes)
Again thanks.
If you have nay insight on the other items, please PM or post.
Best,

i found a fix that works almost flawlessly. i get this problem maybe once a week and it's a pain in the ass.
go into activesync settings (when not connected) through your phone. uncheck email (hit yes if it promts you for deleting emails, etc). Re-check, connect, re-sync. That usually does it for me. If not, try syncing after deleting emails and then disconnecting, checking emails again then resyncing.
hope it works for you guys too!!
Hi, I thought someone could help me out here. Clock on my htc hd2 gone mad. Let me explain.
At some point last week after I installed new ROM (Omega) I've noticed that clock on my phone started to show wrong time (only hours are wrong, minutes are always correct). Event if I correct time manually they will add 2 hours to this time at some point during the day. I've checked time zone, and it is correct (GMT). The other locale settings are correct as well. I'm not sure if it happened right after I've installed this ROM or few days later. Few days ago I've installed different ROM (ChuckyROM lite), I've never had any problems with it. But again the same problem. I haven't installed any additional applications except from Microsoft MyPhone to sync contacts and texts(Time zone in myphone web interface is set to GMT as well).
Here are details shown on load:
r:2.09.50.29_2
g:15.36.50.07U
d:3.14.0466 8G
Any ideas?
Its because of the DST change recently.....
this cab from Dutty should solve it, install, soft reset, set the correct time and everything should be ok.
and check that you are dont have the intenet time ticked in the settings
because everytime you connect to your pc it will check the internet time and correct it
or just disable time synchronization, settings>menu>all settings>personal>GSM/UMTS servs>Time synchronization and untick.
And also you can choose to sync time in settings>data services, Internet time sync.
It helps me
Great, thank you all.
Hopefully I'll no longer will wake up at 5am because of wrong time in alarm clock
It's a DST problem
DST Means Daylight Savings Time, also known as Summertime.
The problem is caused by NITZ (Network Identity and Time Zone) a service hidden in:
Windows Settings >> Personal >> Phone >> GSM/UMTS Services >> Time synchronization.
This service does set the phone clock back into Summertime mode in registry.
See this post for more info.

Man, you are a life saver. I was just about ready to put an ad to sell my hd2, cause I am using it for my work and appointments are crucial to me.
The cab works fine

After we (UK) changed to daylight saving I had many of the random time changes that others on here had. I unchecked the time sync in the menus and then all was well...
That was until I noticed that now whenever I receive a text message from anyone on whichever network - the time that shows on the text is one hour ahead of the actual time. E.g. if I receive a text in the afternnon at 4:00pm the text message will show 5:00pm.
Any ideas?

Same here.
4:00pm phone time, 5:00pm text message time and 3:00pm G-alarm time.
Confusing? Yes.
So here is the thing. From time to time, mostly hour by hour, my Leo connects with internet and changes time one hour forward. Always, after I notice the change I turn the clock back, but it's not a solution. And one more thing, after that, in task manager, activesync is always present. I tried to decline Location service, tweaking the registry as advised few weeks ago on xda main page. I seroiusly need help in disableing activesync, because it really gets on my nerve. I have a data plan from my operator, but those constant time changes are annoying and confuseing sometimes (especcialy in the morning). Thank You for the solution (if there is any) in advance
as for time changes you'll find few threads on disabling the GSM time sync, also check in Settings / Data services if the internet time sync is disabled
for ActiveSync check here
Hi
The app "social networks" (already installed as part of motoblur package) keeps "forgetting" to update from time to time. Anyone else has the same problem or knows a solution?
The app does not have a menu to manually update or change any settings.
Right!!! I have the same problem I'm not able to find setting for synchronization...I dont have understand how often the message of facebook (motoblure) are checked??
usually it must be checked every couple minutes as it always seems up to date, but now mine hasn't synced since two days ago. Restarting the phone didn't help either.
I've noticed that after the update (coincidence?) my widget fails to update. This works for me:
menu>settings>data manager>data delivery>background data (toggle the setting off then on) and escape. Seems to keep me going until the next morning. I think the smart battery saving settings that are in effect overnight (default) clog up the works so I need to repeat the process daily...
Yeah, it seems to have failed after update 2.21 > 2.51
And there is no way to manually refresh.
