Please help me fix my time and appointments are all wrong - XPERIA X1 General

My PC has Pacific time and automatic daylight savings enabled.
My X1 has UK time zone and all my appointments are 8 hours off. When I change it and reset the phone it ALWAYS goes straight back to UK time zone.
Can someone please help me fix this?
Thanks!

At the xperia screen you can click on it and you get the options for the home screen. You can change there London to a city in your neighbourhood and also select if it's daylight saving or something like that (don't know the English word)

Thanks, but I don't know which screen you mean. What do I click on the experia home screen?

What is "Today timeout"??

I have a MDA Vario. In SETTINGS --> TODAY --> ITEMS tab, what is "Today timeout", which is set at "4 hr" by default?? Does anyone know pls? I do not see any reference to it in the manual. Thx.

I think that's the amount of time after which it will return to the today screen if you left it with an app open and didn't touch it.
i tried it last night by leaving a game running, but it was still there when i got up the next day. it does seem to be the function u described, mate. Anyone else have any ideas pls?
A game will certainly work differently as it will request permanent focus and fullscreen. Just try with a standard app like calendar...
well, it was only a simple solitaire card game, but nonetheless I will try standard one like you suggested. But if this "timeout" function really is to return to TODAY screen, what is the real use of it? to timeout in 4 hours? and the longest possible time option is 12 hours.
Doesn't it simply stop refreshing the today screen (ie the clock and other values)?
It still refreshes the clock when you put it into sleep mode. However, after a number of hours it always takes some time for the clock to jump to the correct time.
It is the idle time before the Today screen is shown.
It's near useless, I almost always keep my today screen on anyway, because who wants to wait 4hours to see it
Use my TodayButton app if you want quick access to the Today screen...

personally, I always return to the TODAY screen anyway by shutting down applications after i'm done with them. I just thought this "timeout" thing was a sophisticated and useful function, but it turns out to be quite the opposite. But i will never understand why anyone want to design it to timeout in HOURS and not in minutes.
I'm the same, I shut down apps and always leave it on the Today screen!

Doesn't the Red button do that anyway?
Nah, red button minimises apps to leave them running in the background (I think it actually just switches to the today screen). Some don't mind this, but for me, if I want the app open, I'll open it, and when I want it closed, I want it closed.
VJOkButt allows you to use the red button to minimse or close, and also properly close the phone to save around 3mb memory. But it does this sympathetically with the phone, so if you're in the phone, it hangs up, but otherwise it's a minimiser.

Morale of the story.... no one knows it. I always keep it disabled. So no big deal.
Had PDF softcopy of Reference Manual of my O2AL, and searched with no hint at all. Lets be it.....
I thought...
Guys,
I just stumbled upon this thread and thought it might be a good idea to get educated. I never knew it.
But this is what I thought - I thought it is the time slot to show appointments.
Means, if you chose a slot of 4 hours, and there are continuous meetings scheduled in your calender (and display of them enabled), then it would act like a rolling 4 hours window (read as slot).
Does this make sense? I never had so many appointmens, but always thought this was the use of it.
Comments please.

TF3D - a few questions...

I've got to say... Working pretty good as a panel. No more lock-ups! However, if I leave the phone with the TD3D panel on and the time passes 12am (midnight) I get a white screen that requires me to shut down the panel and start it back up again. Not that big of a deal but I was wondering if there was a fix for it. Also, anyone know if there is a reg edit or CAB file that will allow me to view all the pictures on my SD card? Thanks guys...
??
same issue here with my TF3D. As soon as the clock strikes midnight, my screens goes white with a "loading..." on it. I have to go back to the panels and reactivate the TF3D when i wake up in the morning. Well -.- not REALLY a big problem, but it's annoying. Would be fine if someone could help!
best regards ...
??
sry, double post!
I also get this problem and my alarm doesn't go off!

no need hard reset,just uncheck the "daylight saving time" which in city's options and you'll get the right time.

Wrong time and small sun icon.
did you try unchecking time auto update
oops, this might not do you any good if you want your clock to update automatically when you get into a new time zone.

clock/time is an hour too slow and a day behind!

Ive had the x1 xperia for 2 days and am still learning, but please help!
I want to have a panel at the front that shows the time and date. ive set the correct time and date in the settings, but on my panels it shows up an hour behind, and a day behind. To solve this problem for now, i have changed the time and date forward an hour/day to show the correct time and date on my panel.
I would do this and settle for it, but then in my messages and photos etc it shows the time and date i have put in (the wrong time n date - an hour/day forward) so either way i do it, something on my phone is showing the wrong time. what do i do?!
Please help!

set your city in the panel settings (city 1).

What ^^^ said, it is a stupid way that SE has coded the panels and you have to set the time independently even though the system time is ok.

Remember to check the summertime box in the city settings. It is not done automatically.
thank you! i hadnt set it to summertime, sorry for being so dumb! The instruction booklets do not go through everything so i was a bit confused! Thanks again
AmyBabes
Oh my god, thank youuuuu! Even with all the amazingly cool things that this site has to offer, that has got to be the best advice I've found so far! That stupid clock thing has been driving me nuts, now I can wake up in the morning and not get confused when I check the time

Can "World Clock" be disabled ?

Hello all.
I have a TD2 with The original HTC WM 6.5 ROM.
I love it, but one thing annoys me:
The world clock that pops up when pressing the watch.
It gets in the way everytime the phone ring, and i grab for it in my pocket.
I have googled it, and searched this forum, and all i have been able to find was a cooked ROM that has it disabled, but also had othér changes i don't want.
Is there a kind soul inhere hwo knows a simpler way to disable this "world Clock" feature? (and is willing to share the secret with me )
Thank you in advance Humpeligimp
What World Clock?
I'm assuming you mean when you tap on the clock on the home screen, unless you installed something - SPB Time, or something else with a screensaver - which gives you a world clock?
I hate to suggest the obvious, but if you don't put the lock on when the phone is in your pocket there is potential for bigger problems than the Clock settings to be displayed - a feature, rather than a bug.
My suggestion would be to engage lock before pocketing phone - last time I forgot I made a long silent call, so I soon learned!
Yes that world clock.
I am sorry if it could be misunderstood.
The ringing phone in the pocket was just an example. (Of course i lock my screen)
What i realy ment was can it be disabled ?
To stop it from stealing focus when i accidentially taps the time.
I find it annoying, and i have no need know the time in some other country,
just from the front of my phone.
I like to link my clock so that when i press it, it launches second today. I do this using ssmaho 0.0.4.0. I suppose you could link it to take you to the home screen (ie. do nothing)!
Thank you. I'll check ssmaho and see.
