[DST] Check Your Calendar Appointments!

[[sammich]]

After hard-resetting and setting up my Exchange sync again, the appointments are correct.

Is it just me, or is it kinda sad that we have to go through so much just to fix something as simple as DST changes?

Agree 100%. Oh well, I'm on Sprint stock ROM, I'll go to the stock 6.5 ROM this weekend and see what happens.

I don't think the hard reset was necessary. I just deleted my exchange server and added it again. When it sync'd, everything matched for on-line calendar and my phone's calendar. It is funny how our 'smart' phone can't deal with something as easy as DST. I was wondering why it said st. patrick's day was Tuesday ...glad I saw this thread.

Yet again, Microsoft disappoints. Its ing that they can't even get something as simple as DST right.

All my appointments corrected themselves except the all-day ones. I'm pretty sure Christmas is NOT on 12/24!

Outlook is showing it correctly. Im going to hard-reset and resync with my exchange server to see if that helps.

anyone else have new texts showing up at the top of the conversation in the tf3d text thing? i have a feeling this is somehow related to the daylight saving time change.... guess ill have to delete the entire text history to fix it. ugh.

Mine all went a head by an hour (on CST time).

Mine are unaffected. I have an appointment tomorrow that I set last week, it is still set for the correct time. But that could be because I use Exchange Activesync.

Verizon TP2 stock 6.1 rom.

Problem:
All my appointments are displayed 1 hour LATER than they are set for. If I go in to edit the start & end times, those are correctly set. Just the display times are 1 hour later.

I think the DST problem is with manila. I further inspected my calender appointments and noticed that ONLY the recurring appts. were 1 hour later than they should be.

Solution:
My simple fix is this:
(FYI: I did all of this in the current month on my calender)

-Select the day of a recurring appointment
-Select the appointment itself
-Select "Menu" then "Edit ALL instances" of it
-Change the "Occurs" option to "once"
-Select the "Starts" date
-Change the date to the current month/week, then select the day the appointment usually occurs on (so if your appt. occurs every Tues @ 1:15pm, select the current week's Tuesday).
-Select "ok" to finish editing
-An error message should pop up that reads "We're sorry. A problem has occurred with manila.exe". Send the data to MS, if you want. Or don't send it. Choose "done" after you've made your decision.
-Your screen should now be at your calendar, on the current week, on the day of your recurring appt (that you just changed to occur once).
-Select the appointment itself, and edit it to be recurring.
-Select "Menu" then "Edit"
-Change the "Occurs" option back to "Every..."
-Select "OK" when done.

This seemed to fix it for me. I had to do this for ALL my recurring appointments, but they now display the correct times. Just wanted to share.
