Has anyone figured out how to change the clock from 24 hour time format to 12 hour am/pm in the WM5 version (downloaded va HTC Home Customizer v 0.8b)?
My regional and time format settings are set for English (US) with time format of h:mm:tt, but the Home Plugin continues to show in a 24 hour format (H:mm:tt). I've searched the web for most of the weekend to discover similiar posts, but only one hint of an individual that was able to change his regional settings, perform a soft reset and then change it back to have the clock suddenly appear with the 12 hr format. I've attempted so many combinations, including uninstalls, reinstalls, but nothing seems to work. The date format is chaning with the regional changes, but not the time. Searching the registry hasn't revealed anything either.
Anyone else figure this out or have a direction they could point me in? Would be much appreciated.
EDIT:
Further investigation shows that its not really ignoring my regional settings. It just doesn't want to play with either the h:mm:tt or hh:mm:tt formats. I can change it from H:mm:tt to HH:mm:tt and the changes is reflected. Can also change the date format and it appears correctly. Why can't I get h:mm:tt?
UPDATED:
After an "unscheduled" rebuild (couldn't get past Windows Mobile screen after a soft reset), I've installed the HTC Home Plugin and the clock issue resolved itself. Evidently the problem was caused by a conflict with another piece of software. I've reloaded all my apps and its still working fine. Could have saved myself a few days of searching and just bite the bullet and performed a hard reset.
