I did that but it will not work?

are you using any additional application for toolbar ?
and in setting on the Regional settings did you choose the "h:mm:ss tt" ?

I've had the same problem with my Qtek 9100 (WM 5) since I got it but I just figured it out. In the Time tab under Regional Settings select "h:mm:ss tt" under Time Style. I had to scroll to see it which threw me because I don't remember having to scroll in my 2003 devices. If the letters are capital "H:mm:ss tt" it is the 24 hour clock which was default on my Qtek.

Im using Tweaks2k2.NET, Under System Tricks ( Collection 2 ) got tick show AM/PM in the clock.
im happy using this stuff!!!

Strange glitch with the new imate 2.17 rom

I installed the imate rom 2.17 on my Tmobile MDA (USA) and I get this very strange glitch, initially the clock is set on the 24 hour setting instead of using AM/PM so I go into settings and change the regional setting to US english the defualt is united kingdom english, and when I click ok this resolves the problem, temporarily. until I soft reset the phone. Then the 24 hour clock is put back for good. after I soft reset the phone no matter which regional setting I use there is no more am/pm, there 24 hour clock is there to stay my only option is to hard reset the phone, and start all over, but I reach the same point because whenever I soft reset I am back where i started,
PLEASE PLEASE help me, I do not have the brain power to read the 24 hour clock how should I know what 17:30 means, its 5:30 pm for god sake

When you go into Regional Settings have you actually gone to the "Time" tab?
There you can set it. The ones that start with hh: are the 12 hour clock. The ones that start with HH are the 24 hour clock. Doesn't matter. When you click on one it shows you an example of what the time will look like.
Hope this helps

Yeah once I have reset the device when I go to the time top only two options are available HH:MM:SS and H:MM:SS the times with for the 12 hour clock arent even an option, its strange because I still have an option to set the am and pm

have you tried setting the STFmt value in the registry?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides\STFmt
chage the H or HH to h or hh

In the Time tab of the Regional Settings make sure the Time Style is set to h:mm:ss tt.

Yeah it is and it still showing it in 24hr mode...

You have to scroll up to find the tt at the end.

start - setting - system - regional settings - time - time style - hh:mm:ss: tt

How To Set Time To Pm Instead Of 24 Hour Clock (help)

I Donno But It Was 24 Hour Clock Then One Day It Changed To Pm But Now Its Back To 24 Hour Clock, How Do I Change To Am/pm?

You just have to go into settings and then into the system tab and then into regional settings. There should be a time format in there.

thx but after changing it remains the same of 24 hour clock..

Now that is strange.... Which panel are you using?

touchflo 3d

altho i changed back to the xperia panel (top left corner) it still 24 hour clock...

help pls.. piush

So your settings regional settings are set to United States? If thats the case i don't know what to tell u besides there is some glitch. try uninstalling touchflo 3d and reinstalling it. Since this is across ur entire system i think ur regional settings are set wrong

How Should I Set My Settings In Exact Form Pls Help ><

You should only have to change the regional settings to the united states.
Settings->System->Regional Settings->Region
Set that to United States and look at the appearance samples. You should be able to see your time format and if its still doesn't have an am or pm go to the time tab and change time style to h:mm:ss tt

i tried all... doesn't work tho

Best other option i can give you is a hard reset. It should work fine. Have u tried to uninstall tfl3d?

Clock from AM/PM to 24 Hours

Is there a way to change this?

Yes.
If you are asking how to change it, then the answer is: Start -> Settings -> System -> Regional Settings -> Time

Thank you very mutch

I've been trying to do this - I somehow managed it with my Diamond, but no luck with the HD yet - I'm trying to go the other way, from 24hr TO am/pm - but if UK English regional settings are selected, 24hr appears to be the only default option and there's no visibly simple way to switch it (unf... not that I've found at any rate)

Same problem
I want to switch to 24 hour clock. When I change it in the regional settings it does nothing for the touch flo 3d clock....

It should, are you using the stock ROM? Change it so you get a 24 hour clock in the title bar then soft reset and see if TouchFlo catches up.

in regional settings, goto tab: time,
time shoud be: HH:MM:ss

I'm sorry
I'm sorry,
What I meant to say, was that it changes to the 24 hour format but i thought 'HH' meant to have the leading zero for 00:00 - 09:00, instead i get 0:00 - 9:00.
Not a big deal...

In fact, the 2 "h" ("hh" or "HH") means to put a leading zero. The capital "H" instead means to use a 24 hour clock, rather than a 12 hour one (which is obtained through "h" or "hh").
So if you want a 2-digit, 24 hour clock, you should use "HH".
I had the same problem and this solved for me. Hope that it helps you too.
Thanks

Anyone has any idea to switch to 12-hour clock with AM/PM for FLIP clock? I manage to do it for small clock (as well as everywhere else) but the flip clock just stays at 24-hour format even after changing Regional settings and NLS registry key.
I remember when I got the HD, the flip clock was in 12-hour format but after installing certain apps it converted to a 24-hour.
