Hello to All.

I need to set the timezone to GMT+2 Helsinki.
For some reason the timezone will change back to GMT+2 Pretoria.

Phone: HTC Diamond
ROM: EnergyROM Series "Mercury" 21921
Radio: 1.09.25.23


This will happen as following:
1. Setting home time to Helsinki via START/SETTINGS/CLOCK & ALARMS
2. Opening clock via Manila and Helsinki is listed as my Local time
3. Closing Manila clock and opening right away – Home time is changed to GMT +2 Pretoria and all appointments have been shifted by one hour.

Automating Timezone is not checked.

Then I started to try some other options.
Marked Local time to :

GMT London - everything is ok, no change
GMT Casablanca – changing to GMT London
GMT +1 Paris – changed to GMT +1 W Centre Africa
GMT+2 Jerusalem – changing to GMT+2 Pretoria
GMT+2 Windhoek – changing to GMT+2 Pretoria
GMT+2 Minsk - ---
GMT + 3 Moscow – changing to GMT +3 Riyad
GMT+3 Tbilisi - changing to GMT +3 Riyad
GMT+3 Riyad – no change
GMT+3 Nairobi - changing to GMT + 3 Riyad
GMT+3 Baghdad – opening manila, it shows GMT+3 Riyadh, closing and reopening doesn’t cause any changes.
GMT+9 Seoul - ok
GMT +10 Guam – opening manila – it shows GMT+10 Brisbane
GMT+13 Tonga - everything is ok

Reinstalled ROM (having Energy Rom right now), Reinstalled Radio , no other software is installed.

I posted this problem to Energy rom thread as well. But it might not be rom issue.

So this is just madness… 

thank you for any response.

Try this cab, also go into the clock and set your local city from the weather tab to the top.

Thanks.

at the moment it fixed my calendar and general time. so it wont mess up anymore.
it still changes the default timezone, but now it changes from GMT+2 Helsinki to GMT+3 Riyad. As this is the same timezone as GMT+2 Helsinki in summer time, it'll be ok.

Was having teh same problem with the energy rom. Will this change anything when summer time ends? Will I have to run another cab or will the time change back an hour automaticly?

Thanks

Same problem here, after flashing EnergyROM. Timezone keeps on setting itself to GMT+2 Windhoek. I didn't like the RAM usage of the EnergyROM, so I flashed back to Gen.Y. The frustrating part is that the Timezone issue is now also present in the Gen.Y ROM :mad::mad::mad:

I even exported the registry from another Diamond running Gen.Y ROM (without problems) and imported this. But to no avail.

Any suggestions are welcome.

I installed the latest microsoft CAB file for timezone and DST, and it fixed the problem for me.

you can also download the CAB from here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958729
