I have a problem with the clock since the hours changed to summer time.
I try'd 3 diferent Roms now and all have the same problem, the clock delays 1 hour allways.
I set the correct time and sometime later or after a softreset the time delays 1 hour.
Another thing is that I can't mantain my correct time zone (London) that has the correct time for me. It allways changes to (Casablanca) that is 1 hour earlyer.
Please help.
i'm in the UK and i didn't do a thing on the phone when the summer time changed. It changed the time automatically. Running Leo v3 rom, btw
Am in uk aswell. Time changed automatically didnt have to do anything. Using the EnergyROM with Radio: 2.08.50.08_2.
Sorry not got any ideas, hope some1 can help you..
Just don't make any Portuguese City in the world clock your default city. Use "My Location" instead. That's what i do.
This ain't an UK problem it's Portuguese problem, the time zone / weather database file (WWE and other then the PT rom version) of Manila is wrong concerning the portuguese Time Zone, i forgot about the file name but you have to edit it with sqlite.
This just heppens with new Roms, since when the time changed my Rom changed well and automatic, but with new roms a have this problem.

I'm having the same problem. I'm in Porto and the "My location" sugestion doesn't fix the problem. HD2 always get 1 hour earlier. I could set my location to London but all the geographical integration is lost. For me the ROM is the default one that vodafone delivered (last htc pt stock rom).
Does anyone know what file should be edited to correct the problem as sugested above?
Thanks for your help
Try:
Start > Setting > Menu: All settings > Personal > Phone > GSM/UMTS > Time Synchronization > Get Settings > Tick: Automatic Change time zone and clock.
I had the above problem and this fixed it.
That is already set im my ROM

Go to the settings tab - Data Services - Internet Time Sync and untick
For now this is the only solution.

Thanks, I think that will solve the problem
I've unticked both settings refering time sync (GSM/UMTS and internet time sync) as suggested above and that doesn't fix the problem when syncing with PC using mobile device center v6.1
It's beggining to be of major concern for me as I need frequently to check the time in different countries for professional reasons and even if I don't sync with PC and I force the clock to the right time, some of the other cities would be wrong (not all with +1h).
HTC should fix this bug.
jpl69 can you please tell me more about the file that should contain the "world time table"?
me too
I'm in Portugal too and last Monday I lost a €12000 contract due to being 1 hour late for the appointment. I had this problem last year too and haven't yet found a solution. I'm quite sickened by it. The Microsoft "patch" doesn't work either. I'm sure these settings must be in the registry somewhere?
problem solved with Weather City Editor
I´m in Portugal too.
I think the bug is on Manila 2.1 and 2.5, the time zone for Portugal is incorrectly Casablanca when it should be London.
Corrected it with Weather City Editor that ca be found here at xda.
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=546141
It took me 2 minutes to fix all the 16 cities (Ponta Delgada was the only one already correct) and after a while even "My location" comes ok.
Hope this helps.

I am a frequent traveller, I travel a lot between Eastern and Central Time zones.
When my PPC was on WM5 it used to Auto update the time no matter which state I used to be in.
But ever since I updated my PPC to WM6 the AutoUpdate of clock stopped working. Can someone help me out
i did find a registry entry which I used.. I do timezone tab in Phone settings and it is checked to autoupdate and still the phone is unable to update the time from network.
anyhelp is greatly appreciated
You are seriously wondering why you are not getting full functionality out of a bootlegged OS?

I can't help with the WM6 question...but I am curious how you managed this with the WM5 OS. I have an 8125 and apparently a similar travel pattern. My device NEVER updates the time based on the network. How did you set this up when you were still running 5?
I am interested in how you got it working as well. Mine did not update once from the east coast to the west coast. Not even when making a call.
well i have a reg tweek that will change the time when you enter a diff time zone via the network...hope this is what your looking for....
Timezone and time update
In the branch HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting Change the value of the Key "ShowTimeZonesPage" to value of 1 (dword). Close your registry editor (no reset required) and tap START-SETTINGS-PHONE, there should be a new tab where you can automatically set the phone to get time and timezone information from the network. Really useful for me as I do extensive travelling. Tested on WM5

Yes! Its there on WM6 too!!!! Dont know if it actually works, yet to travel in a different timezone.
I have had it enabled in my registry in WM5 and WM6. It's NEVER worked for me. I change phones a lot so I'm always taking out the SIM card. When I do this, the battery comes out and it loses time/date.
I'd be curious on the details as well because I've never heard anyone that actually had it functioning!

I tested this tweak and it seems to work when I initiate flight mode and then turn flight mode off (which will be great when I land on the plane...the time will adjust automatically).
Will this update periodically check the time to ensure it's sync'd or will this only work when the phone initially communicates with the network?
acording to microsoft list of bugs in all from aku1 to aku3 this feature never worked and they never fixed it..... since crossbow has several parts of old aku roms my guess is it does not work either..... this feature is also carrier dependent if you manage to make it work.

My carrier supports it. My Wizard never did with the ROM hack or with Crossbow. So if it worked, I'd love to find out how! This at least makes me feel good that I'm not missing out on something...

upon doing some more reading aparently some aku3 roms now support it!!!
but in a diferent way. here it is;
Receiving Network Identity and Time Zone(NITZ) information is currently unsupported.
This feature was incorrectly documented to be supported by Windows Mobile Version 5.0 AKU3.0 in Windows Mobile Version 5.0 Documentation Release. NITZ is currently supported at Radio Interface Layer(RIL) only.

OK, so apparently this functionality is in fairly high demand...and since we're talking about WWAN devices, hasn't someone written an app that will periodically ping a time server (like PC OS's) and update the time on the device?
I am NOT a developer, so maybe I'm missing something obvious here. But it doesn't seem like a complicated concept for sure.
registry wizard does this
the xda-developers registry wizard allows you to make the registry tweak "show time zone s page" in both WM5 and WM6,- this put the time zone tab in phone-options, but the feature never worked for me. I called my provider to confirm if they supported it but the help desk was clueless- Would love to see if anyone got this working.
Confirmed working on my 8125 through the Cingular network. Before the hack I had to initiate a physical active sync through USB or manually change the time. Now if I go and change the time to say an hour ahead within 5 -10 seconds the time reverts back automatically.

Here is a quote and a link to a program I found on the Cingular/HTC forum:
"How hard would it be to go to the clock settings and select the "visiting" button and select the time zone you are in?
Works for me.
There are options for atomic clock server time sync. But that won't address time zone issues.
http://zdnetasia.com/downloads/handheld/swinfo/0,39043246,39175141s,00.htm
"
I don't go out of my own time zone, so I don't really have any issues with it. The registy hack has worked just fine on my 8125.
I couldn’t find any threads on changing the starting day of the week to be a Saturday that is shown in the calendar.
Changing registry, tweak or any other way to accomplish this.
Your help is really really appreciated!!
Apparently, one can use SSaMPa (or however the program is called) with a switch (-ew [for weekly view] iirc) to get this done. Use search again, I know this info has come by on the board...

Apologies, I should have mentioned that I wanted the start to be a Saturday.
I know the first place to look is Calendar Options . I know you mean well but I am not that stupid
But thanks anyway.
Go into Settings, Regional Settings and change it to US, or something.
I found that after changing it to my Country (Romania, Europe) it automatically changed date to have the day/month/year (as expected here) and also the first day of the callendar, it's not mentioned there but it actually changed it.
Please test it out.

I tried your suggestion but unfortunately it didn’t work. I changed it (and did a soft reset) from UAE to USA to UK to Zimbabwe (Hey don’t laugh) and it changed everything except the start day.
If what you suggested is true; I would guess (and bet) that something can be changed in the registry or something. And this is of course something for xda wizards to figure out.
If anyone knows a better place in the forum to put this question please do, you have my blessing.
Thanks for your input
try accesing your Calender from the Today screen.
Right bottom / Menu /Tools/Option anf than secodn option first day of week.
Now, this might work.
Unfrotunate from my weak expereience, settign it up here (called from the Today screen) is somehow different from the callendar (Start/callendar), no idea why.
please test it.
I also need my calendar to start the week on Saturday. Could someone please help me with a registry edit or something to allow the default windows calendar to start the week on Saturday.
Thanks in advance.
Hello to everybody
I have an annoying problem with my Today screen. When I put an "All Day event" on my calendar. My Today screen shows it. That's ok.
My problem is that the next day. This "All Day event" is still displayed to my Today Screen. Normally at 00:00:00 that Today Screen should be refreshed. But it doesn't do by itself. I have switch off then on the TF3D or a soft reset every morning to refresh it.
Here is my technical info:
TF3D: 1.3.35350.1_1630.38
ROM: 1.14.406.3 (22273) FRE
Date ROM: 10/24/08
Radio: 1.09.25.14
Protocole: 52.49a.25.26U
I went to HTC website and they don't have any hotfix to resolve my problem.
Do you have a hotfix for this ?
Do I have to change ROM ?
Can you help me please ?
Same here. I don't need to have an 'All day' event, even the 2hs events don't disappear from Today's screen (well, sometimes are refreshed, sometimes not).
Also,TF3D gets restarted sometimes when I turn on the screen, it says 'TF3D is being loaded...'. It's a nice interface, but got a few bugs.
Ahh !!! that mean I'm not fool ! I am not the only one to have that problem.
I didn't notice that TF3D reload by itself. But as you said, since my last hard reset, it reload alone sometimes.
Do you think that we are the only two people of that planet having these troubles ? Are our TouchHD broken or what ? Is it weak to think that HTC can change our mobile seeing the garantee ?
This problem is really really annoying to me !
Okay... I found out what was wrong...
It's time problem !
On my pc, the time was set to GMT+1 Rome and on my ppc it was set to GMT+1 Paris
I've set to the same time and desactivated the "Automatic change time setting" in phone settings.
Then a little syncro.
Now everything refresh nicely
I have a similar problem, however more related to syncing. About 2 days ago my blackstone (whie charging via usb) displayed a message that changes have been made to the server and all the data has to be resyncronised. I was offline and not doing anythink related to syncing. After this, all my full day apointments were extended to the day after too.
For example my friend's birthday on 7th of Feb is displayed in the 8th of Feb Agenda too, despite that in the settings the appointment is full day only.
Had the same issue with my wizard before. Seems to be a calendar issue, since my PC outlook shows everything normally. I've tried several hard resets but it didn't work...
Any help?

Very good finding! Thank you!
That should work, but I have an additional problem... the timezone that is set in my PC cannot be replicated in the HD, because it has been created as 'custom time zone'. That was because Argentina decided, without previous notice, to get the clock one hour forward some months ago. Win XP didn't support that time change, so in my company they developed a hot fix that created a new time zone.
But thanks for the clue! I will try to solve this playing a bit with timezones.
Can we please work towards a solution for the daylight savings time error with the new manila. When the system clock changes to the new time manila is behind by an hour. All appointments on TF3D are shown an hour early - this has made my week hell when checking for times of meetings etc..
I used the search and saw this issue mentioned but no one seems to be working towards a solution for this. Its a real problem

Correct. I tried MS updates - it does not help Manila

Also ensure your phone options are set to automatically update timezone or the time of your threaded sms responses will mess up

I also noticed that Manila sets the time zone wrong. When I select "Milwaukee", a city in the "Central US" time zone, Manila selects "Sakatchewan", which is in the same time zone apperantly, but the clock is still an hour off. I always have to go to the original WM settings page to set this right.

If you do this in the manilla file in the last columm there are the time zones.
The solution is add to yor time zone 60 more
lets say London change from 0 to -60
Paris from -20 to -120
Athens from -120 to -180 Put it in the windows dir
and you are ok
This is not a permanent solution because you have to change it back in the change of winter time.
This is a bug in all topaz and rhodium based roms (and perhaps in all hd roms)
The manilla 2clock takes the time from the file 2330fc3c_manila which is different
from previus manilla 1 file it has an extra columm in database with timezone
and does not know about summer time.

Did not work for me. After suggested change I got correct time shift for Moscow time, but once I set Moscow in settings-system-clock, I get two versions of Moscow time in Manila. One that I changed is called just Moscow. And another one is called GMT+3 Moscow which is one hour behind. In either case if I pick Moscow in Manila with correct time, or GMT+3 Moscow and adjust time, after I hit Done, system time becomes Abu Dhabi GMT+4 instead of Moscow. Gosh...

HELP!
Since I once loved a place in the world time clock with a different time zone (Boston) and had removed changes with each update of the weather, the time zone for "My Location" on New Delhi GMT +5:30 GMT +1 Berlin would be correct, Rome.
The only way to prevent this is to add my Nearest city as a location and select it. Then the time zone for "My position is not changed."
I set the current Vodafone HTC Rome one 2.16.162.3 (67041).
Excuse my lousy English
