Hi My xperia prompted me to accept the time change for daylight savings, upon hitting ok the clock that displays on windows bar (in place of the battery indicator) is now one hour off from the clocks on my xperia panels...is there any way to sync them back up? If i change the clock, it will change ok but there is a 1 hour difference regardless. Thanks

so which is right the system clock or the panels?
what happens when you change the dst settings in the panel (its on the settings page where you choose your location)
I have the same issue. Windows panel and the settings have the correct time but the two SE Panels are displaying the time without adjusting to DST. If I go to the time settings, the time is correct. It is a DST issue on the SE Panels. Any fixes for this?

the right clock is the system clock on the windows title bar at the top. Not sure where the DST settings are, are you referring to the time zones?
@ frankencowx
I just found the solution. Click on panel options and then cluick the name of your city (Houston in my case). Now check the DST box and voila!
ahhh awesome thank you!!
Intersestingly enough, my xperia did not prompt me to accept any time change for daylight savings. Forgive my ignorance here but where can I check the DST option? I think I had gone through most settings and I couldn't find it. Appreciate the help.
go to options on your sony ericsson panels (where launcher/location/web feeds are) and select which city you want again, underneath it is a checkbox for DST.
Got it. Thanks.
God damn, after daylight savings ending all my appointments changed by an hour. Anyone know anything about this problem? I don't want to manually change them all back.
Update: Seems the problem fixed itself when I synced it with my desktop. Still... Weird
DST has been forgotten
I have just come back from Europe to the UK after holiday, when I went aborad the X1 updated itself with the local time (I don't know/care how), but on return it stayed as GMT +2 and refused to change.
I then changed it to GMT +1 but of course it updated all of my calendar entries (wrong), so I changed to GMT & looked (in vain) for the DST settings.
Now my clock is one hour behind & all of the calendar entries are 2 hours early.
I have sync'd with a desktop through AS4.5, no change.
Anyone got any idea how to apply DST to an X1 ??
WTF has WM6.1 removed this option ????

Does it bother anyone else that whenever you switch back to the home screen, the clocks reset the hands and do the little animations to spin to the correct location? The flip clock does it like it used to in TF3D too, the numbers flip over until they catch up. It seems such a waste of time and cpu cycles. I've tried the default Android clock and it is much calmer, it is always at the correct time regardless of whether you switch back or not. The down side is it isn't as attractive and doesn't take you to the clock app when you press on it.
Anyone else annoyed by this?
Indeed I find it a little annoying...not tried the different clock....
one question, are you able to change the type of clock on your profile?
I seem to be only be able to select different front clocks under different profiles (Scenes) so you are stuck with that clock for that scene?

You can just remove it, then add an HTC Widget and select 1 of 12 clocks (think its 12)

Genuie!!!!! Thanks dude!!!
I also found that when I changed my clock to the small one (so it still fits in the same space on the home screen), my Hero became much more responsive. It still adjusts the time with an animation every time I go to the home screen, but it seems way better. Others have suggested removing the People widget, but for me it was just a change of the clock.
Bugs the hell out of me, so much so I had to remove it.
Hope the new update fixes this problem.

I like seeing the clock flip over! I'm sure it does it by design too, it's not a fault/bug.

It is a fault, the clock widgets can't store the time. So everytime you enter the idle screen it updates the clock.

I don't believe it's a fault either, judging by the way it is animated. It is just designed not to update whilst not visible.

Most if not all of the HTC clock widgets do the animation.
However, on the leaked video of the new speedier ROM, I notice the clock never updates like that, even though it is the big one with weather combined. It just changes immediately, so maybe that is part of the speed up...
i use the smallest one, digital, but not a flip. number 5 i think it is.
yes, if you look closely you can see it update when you go back to the homescreen, but it is so fast, most of the time i don't notice it, and i'm certainly not gonna sit there trying to see it happen, cos it's really not that important to me...
Maybe they added a setting to enable / disable clock animation ?
Hope so as I quite like it.
On the CDMA Hero there seems to be a bug... IN the Clock app, home location and current location show the correct time but most HTC clock widgets insist on displaying the GMT time. What's up with this?
The weather on the home page with v1.5 you could add locations with a map search. I noticed that with v2.1 the map point location 'tool' is not there. I am trying to load certain locations to my weather and 2.1 version doesn't list any cities like version 1.5 did.
Is this a bug or a change? or am I missing something?
They expect you to know where you want to know the weather or else why would you want to know the weather? Confusing
Confusing, yes
Whether or not I know the weather is neither their business nor mine? I'd rather know whether the weather is more pleasant rather than not, in places i'd rather be....whether here or there.
author unknown. It's better that way.
sorry if I'm wasting time. Thanks to all of you who helped all of us who need "Eris and Android 2.1 for Dummies"!
All punning aside, I love the animations on screen. The rain drops had me nervous the first time they came up. The clouds passing by was neat. I think my favorite is the sunshine's aura.
There are TONS of complaints about the Eris weather widget. It's a flaky one for sure. We have three Eris's in my house and have yet to get all of them to work correctly, in spite of me spending lots of time on the phone with HTC. Mine actually works pretty well right now. My wife's would never display the correct city, but we could get close. After upgrading hers, it showed the correct city for the first time EVER...for a little while. The next day, it would only say "current location".
Sometimes your computer monitor makes a fantastic sounding board. As I sat here typing this, a thought popped into my head on the subject. Just grabbed the wife's phone (and some boob on the way by ) and went into settings>location and found that GPS was enabled, but network location was not. Turned on both and voila`...the correct city name popped up. Check your location settings. That's all I got for ya...I hope it works.

I have another issue with the HTC weather/clock widget. I've reloaded this new ROM 3 times already to see if there was an issue with installing other clock/weather programs but I have not been able to fix it.
On my home screen, the weather shows correctly (current location) and updates much quicker than the 1.5 ROM did.
When I tap the clock, by default it goes to "Desk Clock" Where it shows the time, weather and across the bottom you can choose between the world clock, alarm, stopwatch and timer.
The problem I am having is that the weather in this screen is stuck on Akron, OH. While I don't have anything against Akron, I don't particularly care about the weather there (its 640 miles away). I've deleted the location in the weather widget settings but every time the "Desk Clock" loads, sure enough, Akron, OH weather is displayed.
Anyone else with this problem?

Have you tried deleting the stock widget and then adding the htc weather widget and setting a certain location where you live or current location? When you add the new widget it asks what city or current location you want it to default to. I got tired of seeing it set for 14 or current location instead of the city so I just set it to Baltimore as its the closest major city.
hope this helps

I'm not having any problems with the stock time/weather widget on the home screen. It's the desk clock app that also shows the time. If you tap the clock on the home screen it takes you to the different clock, alarm, stopwatch, timer apps and the desk clock app shows the time, date, and weather. It is here that the weather only displays Akron, OH. My home screen updates as expected and about 5x faster than the 1.5 ROM.
my stock rooted sense rom has a giant clock with some animated weather stuff overlay-ed. it it messing up.
it shows the weather as 0, even though its about 23
there is no high or low info
it just says delphi (my city) to the left underneath side of my giant clock
i can add citys as they added cities seem to work, but these added city cant be "my current" city
i did a nandroid back up and did a factory reset and set the phone back up and the weather did the same thing
so i did a backup restore and it once again it was still acting up
i have the weather set to "current location" and drove to another city and it change city's but still couldn't display the animated icons on the home screen or one the weather widget was actually opened
when i scroll through the other two citys i set up the weather becomes animated but not on the home screen
i have deleted the widget and created a new one- no change
i tried to add my city manually but cant because it isn't listed when i type it in
any help would be apprecitaed
there is a chance that there is a software problem and i maybe didnt foramt the phone correctly but i doubt it.
yeah htc servers are acting up.
might be working for some now?
Same here, all night mine has only said the time, Springfield(my city), and the date. That's all. I'm rooted with Ava v10 and modded blue sense clock.
Sent from my EVO's 4G You?........I thought so

hi guys,
whenever i try to add the google calendar widget to a screen the box just displays todays date and then an empty white space below it. I can't work out how to make the widget display the agenda for the coming month. can't see anything in options how to do it.
sorry if i am being dumb.
cheers

Is there an option in the calendar app itself? Have a look through the settings and I am sure there is a setting you can change for how far ahead the app looks (i.e. one day, week, month, etc.). Sorry I can't direct you more accurately. My Nexus is currently charging (whilst off so I can charge it quicker before I head out).
Does anyone else have the problem that after a restart the phone defaults back to 12hr clock (am/pm) instead of the 24hr clock I'd set the system to?

Yes, I have a new LG V20 with this problem. Not only is the time defaulting to the 12hr clock after a restart, but it is defaulting or shutting off the 24hr clock during normal operations! First I discovered that the 24hr clock would default to 12hr clock when re-entering the "Date & time" settings control. Then after LG recommended a factory reset, which didn't correct the issue, I noticed it just defaulting to 12hr clock all on it's own after a few days of up-time on 24hr clock...
Great phone... hoping there's a fix or a new device will solve the problem.
Didn't make sense to exchange the device for a new one because it wasn't likely hardware related, but went for a new one anyway...
Same issue, although what I did notice is that the pre-installed Accuweather widget on the home screen is defaulting from 24hrs to 12 hrs several seconds before the time in the Status Bar changes from 24hrs to 12hrs.
I wonder if the Weather widgets are responsible!?
