any thoughts?

Daylight Savings Time worked on C2 and 931.

did you use advanced config to change the registry settings on daylight savings? i noticed that it was off by default so i enabled it (this was yesterday, so before the change)--i wonder if i should keep it disabled and maybe verizon would do the time sync automatically?

speaking of time sync: how does our TP sync time?

I didn't do anything. It changed all by itself. Time Sync on the TP is under Phone/setting/ TimeSync...with the box checked, it syncs to the mobile phone network...unchecked, it doesn't sync.

that's exactly what i was looking for! thanks bob!
just to be sure, i set some random time and forced an time sync and it went back to the correct time! maybe that's what i should do every time...

edit: bob, would you mind going to HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Clock/ and see what's the dword for AutoDST? thanks.

okay cool. this means verizon takes care of the updating through its towers instead of letting windows mobile do the auto updating. thanks, bob!
