Hi!
I just got my HD2 last week and flashed it with standard energy 21908 july 8th version.
Not sure if this is related to this rom or just a general problem.
My weather won´t auto update unless I go to the weather tab when it will instantly update.
This started when I disabled "my location" and manually set my location.
Have tried different time intervalls, but always the same thing.
The reason why I didn´t want to use "my location" is beacuse it always left the data connection open even though I set it to disconnect after 20sec with bandswitch or Advanced config.
So a soulution to either problem would help...

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!
Hi,
I have an HD2, with the standard Telstra ROM v. 1.72.841.0 (82124) WWE. I've noticed some strange behaviour that has me worried as we approach DST change.
On soft reset, the "World Clock" function always seems to default back to "My Location", rather than letting me choose which city I'm in (which I've selected prior to soft reset). Also, it always puts the City (under "Local Time Settings") to "GMT+10 Brisbane". Now, I am in GMT+10, but in Melbourne, not Brisbane. Brisbane has different DST rules to Melbourne. I can change my city & timezone to Melbourne/"GMT+10 Canberra/Melbourne/Sydney" but as I say every soft reset forces it back to "GMT+10 Brisbane".
So, what will happen come DST change? Will the rules the device picks up come from the "GMT+10 Brisbane" setting?
How can I turn off the device continually going back to "My Location"? I tried turning off the HTC Location Service but this doesn't seem to effect this.
FYI, I tried HTC support but they did not have any clear fix for this, nor was it noted as an existing problem.
My thanks in advance to the collective wisdom of the forum!
OK, have answered my own question with help from HTC support. The time zone was being incorrectly set by the phone talking to the phone network for time sync.
To switch this off, you go to Settings>All Settings>Personal>Phone. You then go to the "GSM/UMTS Services" tab, and select Time Synchronization>Get Settings. You then uncheck "Automatic change time zone and clock". For me, this was the thing that was forcing my phone into the incorrect time zone. I am now able to manually select the zone I want and not have it changed back incorrectly.
Hope this helps someone!
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.
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.
This is getting annoying
Beautiful Widgets is set to get data from accuweather.com and I've got alternate geocoder option ticked.
Now, this problem only started happening when I flashed to VillainROM and, in fact, was the main reason I ditched VillainROM; gps/call reception was vile even with the KH3 modem.
The problem was that my location kept being reset to Birtley even after I installed FasterFix to assist with GPS fixing.
I've subsequently completely wiped my phone - format of both internal/external usb and a full reset in CWM before installing RevolutionROM. It works beautifully and I'm very pleased with the ROM overall.
However, the same problem has occurred and, despite reporting the correct location all day yesterday, I woke the phone this morning to see that it is again reporting my location as Birtley
Now, if I go to Maps it will also show my location as Birtley. I can fix it if I go to Maps and wait for Maps to update my location.
Then if I wait 5 mins and refresh the Beautiful widgets weather (in the Weather view>>>Home Menu) my location will update correctly.
Is this a google/latitude problem? As it can be the only place where a "cache" is storing that I briefly passed through Birtley the other day :x
I can't believe it's the Widget as it is a fresh install.
Edit: SGS2, RevolutionROM 2.6 with nin 2.1.2 ad KH3 on o2 UK.
