Hi folks,
It has been a long time... How have you been?
I have a small but annoying problem with my Google Calendar and Windows Phone 8 Amber:
Since we have switched to wintertime again here in Denmark all appointments I make on my phone skip one hour when syncing up with Google.
If I put in an event for 2 o'clock the time will skip to 1 o'clock on my phone after a few seconds.
Timezone is set correctly on both the phone and in my Google Calendar...
Any good suggestions?

I have a user who's Eris has a recurring appointment that shows up 1 hour earlier than it's scheduled to be. He's syncing through Exchange and the appointment shows up at the proper time in Outlook, just not on his phone.
Manually changing each event works but if you try to change the entire series it stays at the incorrect time.
The originator of the appointment won't be back until next week otherwise I would have her delete the meeting and resend it. Any thoughts on what might be going on? All of his other appointments are on time. This seems to be the only one.

Maybe the time zone or DST is off on his phone?
I have the same problem as this with an HD2 running a Desire Android build (MDJ FroYo Sense Clean v. 2.4 [kernel: MDJ S6.1)
I have used HTC Sync to sync my Outlook calendar and contacts to my HD2. This is all OK but the appointment times in both Android and HTC sense calendars are showing as 1 hour early, i.e. Appointment with real start time of 10:00 shows as 09:00.
My time settings all appear to be OK, GMT+0, London for UK. Time is correct. Auto update is enabled and working.
What is more weird is that I have installed the Android version of Pocket Informant, as I use this in WM6.5.x mode, and this shows the times correctly.
I've searched forums for solution and found many fixes for incorrect GMT settings or DST problems, but these do not seem to fit with this issue as Clock times appear to be OK.
Not sure if this is a problem with this build, or a more general Android problem.
Any thoughts gratefully received.

Well, better than and hour late ;-p

Hi there, am looking for some help with a problem that is driving me mad !
A few weeks back, noticed that my calendar had a couple of duplicated appointments and was missing a few from that day. Wasn’t a big issue and cleared Calendar cache and resynced and everything came back ok.
However since then, it has been getting progressively worse and worse – where today I have 40+ copies of some of todays appointments and missing everything in the afternoon!
I have tried a factory reset, and am only using Exchange as the single account on the phone. No other accounts are synced at all. And email seems unaffected, just calendar.
Am on a stock-VF 4.1.1 ROM – no mods at all, with kernal 3.0.31-256827.
I’m using sPlanner as the calendar App, but have also installed the “JB Calendar” and another calendar app – neither show my correct information.
Our local tech support for Exchange, tell me this is a phone issue – but after a replacement phone – it can’t be … right?
So today, have removed the exchange account again, wiped phone, readded – and end up with duplicates within 20-30 mins of setting up account. Now tearing my hair out….so would welcome any recommendations or suggestions?
Many thanks,
C&A.
At the end of today, had 450 copies of one appointment... something is clearly not right!
[SOLVED]: Realized that my time zone in outlook.com was different than the one on Outlook 2013. Changing the time zones to match has fixed my problem.
When I use Outlook 2013 to create an appointment on Monday any time after 16:00 (4:00 pm), the appointment gets pushed to the Sunday on the phone.
If I tap into the appointment, the event date will still say "Monday" but its pinned location on the calendar is on Sunday.
Can anyone try reproducing this?
Process:
Create an appointment on Monday at 16:30 (4:30 pm) on Outlook 2013
Sync the calendar with your phone
Check your phone calendar to see if the phone pinned the event on the following Sunday or the Sunday before
Thanks much!
What gets pinned to the live tile is the notification, which goes 24h earlier than the event originates. The alarm itself will go off at the time u have specified. It sux big time, but I dunno how to by-pass this. Tried everything

Oh I'm not talking about the live tile. I'm talking about the location of the event in the calendar app itself. Are your notifications going off too early?
Just for the birthdays which r downloaded from FB, they go off exactly 1 day earlier - it seems that this is the default setting and cannot be altered.

That's interesting. Facebook doesn't display birthdays on my phone at all. Do I have to enable it somewhere?
Go to ur calendar settings, and there enable birthday calendar.
Hello everyone.
I use the sports calendar from Google Calendar, and while the schedules shows the right date and time on my PC, every event shows on my phone one day and 3 hours before the right time. I believe the 3 hours has something to do with my time zone (GMT -03:00). My other events, such as my personal and work calendars are correct both on my PC and phone.
Anyone else have this problem or knows how to fix this?
Thanks!
In the last couple of weeks I noticed that gmail is not always up to date. Started looking into it and found that auto sync for google account is not working right. It always syncs manually. If I don't touch it - it syncs randomly. Sometimes emails arrive 3-4 hours after they get to gmail. Other times they get to the phone in time. If I open google account from settings - accounts, I can see the times it synced all the elements and sometimes they're way behind.
All the auto-sync is enabled on the phone. I tried clearing data and cache, removed and readded google account, finally did a full reset last night. This morning it didn't show emails that arrived in the middle of the night. I went into the account and forced it to sync. It worked and 2 hours later still working but I'm sure it'll stop at some point. Are there any logs I can look at? any ideas how to troubleshoot this?
you didnt say what ROM & version this is
