My main clock won't refresh after the phone turns on or comes back on from airplane mode. The widget clock is working just fine, though. Anyone else seeing this and or know how to fix it?
Haha. Our US Sprint phones think we are part of the European Union. HTC forgot to set our daylight savings time correctly and our phones are changing on October 25th like they do in Europe.
When you change the clock. make sure to uncheck the "city label" it will post the correct time.My main clock won't refresh after the phone turns on or comes back on from airplane mode. The widget clock is working just fine, though. Anyone else seeing this and or know how to fix it?
I dont mean any harm but, sometimes i dont know where you people get this stuff from. My clock time is correct and has been. if you uncheck the city label. the time will be correct in your area.Both my main clock and my widget clock fell behind an hour tonight. Date and time settings are set to automatic so I know I didnt accidentally change something. I have been using my phone heavily for the past 5 minutes and the clock has yet to correct itself.
I guess we are just making it up. I brought my original hero back yesterday and got a replacement. My other one would never sleep. This one sleeps but the time is wrong. the time was correct on my original one. and just because you are not having a problem doesnt mean the problem doesnt exist. So please keep your ignorant comments to yourself. The original poster wasnt asking for a comment like :"i dont know where you people get this stuff from. My clock time is correct and has been."...obviously he's having a problem...and so am i. I hope you do to so you can eat your words.I dont mean any harm but, sometimes i dont know where you people get this stuff from.

Im not saying that he made it up. Take your time and read the threads. we have already discussed this information. I can make any comment that I want. And let the man speak for himself. you dont have to come to his rescue. The clock on here is a issue, but if you do what we say you want have a problem. The clock issue is all around the bored. And why would you want me to have phone problems. You sound like a hater!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I guess we are just making it up.

I know it sounds crazy but i had the exact same thing happen to me this morning.... The clock widget was correct was 6:30 am..... main time on phone had 5:30 am .... I literally took a double take and was like WTF....???? Checked the settings to see what was set...it was set to automatic.... I went in and manually changed to "Central" time....then changed back to "auto" still went back to 1 hour off.....alright, fellas. if you don't believe me -- fine. here is what happened. starting around 1:00 am central time my phone clocks weren't agreeing. the widget clock was fine, but the clock on the status bar was freezing on the time the phone was turned on at, or switched from airplane mode. anyway, once 2:00 am hit (to be specific october 25th at 2:00 am) my status bar clock switched to 1:00 am again and the widget clock showed the correct time. my girlfriend's instinct showed the correct time.
now i am assuming the only reason the phone would drop an hour for any reason at 2:00 am in the morning is because of daylight savings time. here in the states that isn't set to happen until november 1st, however, in the EU that was set for October 25th at 2:00 am. yes, my clock is set to automatically sync with the network, but the reason i think it was the phone is the time on the status bar sticking and the widget working -- my girlfriend's sprint phone didn't have a problem at all -- and all this coincides perfectly with the EU's daylight savings standard.
now, if you think i am full of crap or ******** that is fine. it is still my contention that this was a software bug.
I refreshed my PRL updates, removed the clock widget then readded it. It still it one hour ahead. I too believe it is off due to day light savings because mine jumped an hour forward Sunday morning when I looked at it. But what doesn't make sense is shouldn't it jump back an hour? (Spring forward, Fall behind)
I went to settings and manually changed the clock to not auto update and that worked until today. Auto update is still unchecked, so the small clock in the upper right hand corner is correct (what I set it to) but the widget is an hour ahead. My city is correct, Minneapolis (Central time).
Any help would be appreciated... Is there somewhere we can report this to Sprint?
It's not a "Sprint" error. It's an HTC software bug. They are aware of it and will have it fixed in the OS update. No release date for the update, but it seems like it shouldn't be too long based on my conversation with an HTC rep. They have identified a lot of software bugs (99.99999% of which are all being discussed in these forums) and are aware of the urgency to repair them. They are currently working with Sprint Engineer's (based on my phone call) to fix all of them. Since there are quite a few, several hot-fixes would be necessary. Instead of doing that, they are going to roll them all out with the update. Because they plan to do it that way, I'm guessing they are pretty close to a release, otherwise there is going to be a lot more phone calls pouring into them.
