Garmin Mobile XT changes my clock

[SysWiz]

Every time I start Garmin, it changes my xv6800's clock to 4pm. I thought I'd write a mortscript to check the time, start Garmin, then re-set the time to the correct time. Unfortunately, I didn't see a SetTime function in Mortscript. Does anyone know of another way to do this? (Or even better, why Garmin XT does this?) -Scott

There is a thread with almost the exact title floating around here

I have the same issue. It seems to only reset the clock/date when you don't have a gps fix within a few seconds. I use gps viewer to get a gps fix first and then open it and don't have any issues. I haven't found a better way yet.

It is an unfortunate reality of using Garmin Mobile XT

I fixed mine!!!!:)

Just went into Start>Settings>Personal Tab>Phone>Time Zones Tab, and Un-Checked the "Auto change time zone and clock" box.

There is no problem for me because in my country (Costa Rica) we don't have time change due to change of season, it's always the same.

I don't know why MS put this option there. I think that the place it corresponds is in Time Settings or Regional Settings, but in Phone Options???

Still don't know why Garmin XT is the only one program that does this thing.

No more clock/date changes for me!!!

I hope this can solve the problem of many of you, since there isn't a reasonable solution yet.
