Weather Update Causes Shift in Time Zone

[Joe_Cub]

I have the same problem.
I am in Chicago, with Verizon, with the WM 6.5 update.

When the weather updates to curren tlocation, I jump to the Eastern Time Zone.

The only workaround I have is to disable the HTC Location Service under Settings/Location Settings, then enable the "Time synchronize with mobile network automatically" under Personal Settings/Phone/CDMA Services.

I get the correct time, but the weather is not current.

I can't seem to keep the HTC location service disabled, however now that I have enabled the sync with mobile network my time stays right. Unless I am missing something lol.

Count me in too. I activated my phone a week ago and immediately updated it to WM 6.5. I live in the Atlanta area (Eastern Time Zone) but my phone wants to live in Denver (Mountain Time Zone). I've disabled the weather update and that seems to eliminate the temporal shift. However, I'd really like to have the home screen weather since that's what the software was designed to do. Perhaps we should create a database of homesick TP2's. Anyone in Mountain Time have a Verizon TP2 that insists on displaying Eastern Time? I'll trade ya!

Been running energy roms since my tp1 and on my tp2 since the HSPL dropped and never had this issue until his april 11th rom... and now on the 13th and april 14th roms as well... I cant get mine to stay on -6 (central time) it keeps going back to -5 eastern... I have ran task29 and hard reset several times and still haven't figured out this issue... so annoying lol

The apr 8 nrg gtx 23557 rom worked great flashed to apr14 cookie 23557 and now this i had this exact problem with my stock rom!

I had the same problem when I was using the Sprint Lovers Cab. It would not recognize my home location so I installed conflippers weather and it screwed with my time settings. by adding 1 hour to all the major cities I had listed. removed that and used JVH3_WeatherCityEditor and it solved all my problems (at least with the clock issues LOL)

[wolffer691]

JVH3_WeatherCityEditor did not fix the problem still looking for a answer hopefully someone will answer that has a clue cause i sure dont the only thing i can think of is that the registry is written to default back to eastern time but how to fix it idk!!!!!!!

I had the same issue - mostly when in the car and moving from cell tower to cell tower.

1) Bring up the dialer, press Menu, Options, CDMA Services, Time Synchronization and uncheck Time synchronize with mobile network automatically.

2) Go to manilla Settings tab, Data services and enable Internet time sync.

No longer had any issues after that and My Location and localized weather on home is working as intended.

You are the man finally a fix for this nagging problem you are right but backwards burkilos this is what you have to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1) Bring up the dialer, press Menu, Options, CDMA Services, Time Synchronization and check Time synchronize with mobile network automatically.

2) Go to manilla Settings tab, Data services and disable Internet time sync.

for now even after updating the time stays correct and no jumping time zones!!!!!!!!

O.K...I was with you on Step 1. In fact, Time synchronize with mobile network was already unchecked. However, I cannot locate a manila Settings tab or any other place where I can find Data services. I'm using WM 6.5 on Verizon.
