go to settings tab, data services, internet time sync, and make sure it is turned off.
Or possibly your phone thinks it is in one time zone, but you have it set to another?
On home screen, tap teh clock and make sure you are set to 'my location', and just for good measure, check your region settings in

DST reverts to Standard time after reboot

I've been searching for a solution to this problem for a while, but it seems like I'm the only one who this is happening to. Since the DST change earlier this month, my Touch Pro won't stay on DST after a re-boot. After syncing it with my computer (I have all the DST updates and stuff from MS), it goes to DST. I've let it wait for the network to fix it, I have an active sync with Google's exchange server, but it only goes to DST after a physical sync with my computer.
The even weirder thing is, while both the clocks in the TouchFlo interface and the clock in the WM6.1 settings dialog display the wrong time (i.e. after a re-boot), PocketShield displays the CORRECT time on the lock screen. This is really odd, since I thought the time in PocketShield was based on the WM clock. The only other application I can think of that uses the clock is G-alarm... but other users have reported that their DST issues were not related to G-alarm.
there is an issue it has to do with your carrier not your phone I had the same issue. go into your setting for the clock and turn off the auto update on startup. That will fix your problem. it is probably just the tower near you having the issue. I had the same issue. I have found references to other types of phones having it to. Strange but true.
Are you running TF3D2? if you are, NEVER tap the clock in it - there is a DST bug in it.
ALWAYS use the "Settings / System / Clock & Alarms" program to adjust your time.
Always apply WMDST2008-1.CAB and WMDST2008-2.CAB files to your PHONE. A lot of Cooks seem to leave them out.
Always switch OFF the "Automatic change time zone and clock" option in Phone / Time Zones.
yeah, I'm having this same problem. However, mine changes to an hour forward about 30 mintues after I change it back, doesn't require a reboot of the device. I can't figure it out.
Mine is okay on the Today screen, but the clock icon is off an hour, must be a DST bug, though what is odd, my clock icon in the top bar is a old style hand clock and not actual time numbers, not sure when it changed, if it was an app I installed or some setting I screwed without realizing.
I will look into the suggestions above.
Thank you

If you launch the phone dialer/Dialpad, Menu/Options/Services. Scroll through the services choices, and you will find and option for time synchronization. Make sure the settings for this is set to Time synchronize with the mobile network.
As long as the network is set to DST, so should the devices clock.
At least I know that this is the case with my TP on Sprint.

Clock settings...

On the "double analog clock" ,is there a way to change settings other than places or current location?
I would like to set the first clock to UTC and the second to Home.
Would like to know this too... been trying to set the clocks to 2 different timezones, but to no avail.
anyone can advise ?
Example, I'm in UK, and I would like to set the 2nd clock to USA
I think it just shows Home and current location when in another time zone... not very useful unless you are travelling abroad
tap the widget > press menu > home settings
then select the city you would like to use as the 1st clock

Sense Weather Clock won’t retain Settings

Hey Guys.
Within the last week the Sense clock on my Aria has stopped automatically updating, I go to settings and set Auto Update on, I leave settings, go back in and it is turned off. It simply will not retain the Auto Update setting in an on state.
Has anyone got any thoughts on what has gone wrong?
Further playing has found me the answer.
Under Settings> Account Sync the Auto Sync had somehow been turned off. This overrides the individual application settings.
By fixing this I was able to Sync the Weather

Widgets not refreshing [MIUI Global 7.2.5.0] [Snapdragon]

This little problem is very annoying, I have a reddit and a twitter widget that will not refresh or update unless I manually open the respective applications, I also have a clock widget that has a random alarm notification for Friday 0:00, I have no alarms set that I can find.
I am using nova launcher prime, any help?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Going into settings -> additional settings -> Battery -> Manage apps battery usage: then turning off the power saving mode seems to have fixed it.
EDIT2: Clock widget still showing seemingly random alarms. now it says there is an alarm for Friday 7:41pm
try the "files" app, theres a clean up at the bottom. after that is done there are a few new options like virus scan and also auto start. i'm on global beta and there is everything turned off by default. i did not even receive whatsapps properly until i turned it on there. a little hard to find for such an important option imo but the battery endurance was nice while you are nearly in plane mode D
Launch the widget app. Look at it in background mode. Swipe down. Unlock. I have seen others use this technique but lock it, mine was already locked so I unlocked and it started updating.

Gps problem?

Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with my gps. While i'm counting my running workout with endomondo or samsung health or any program like that gps is counting wrong. For example to a known distance and to the total 16kms it counts 14kms. I'm counting also with a very good watch. The problem is that while the screen is on it counts correct. While the screen is off it lost the way and it isn't count well.
Is there any solution?
Thanks a lot

Sounds like the app is being put to sleep by android. This means once the screen turns off (and/or the phone locks) the app stops working (or gets placed into a suspended state). Once you turn the screen on and/or unlock the lockscreen the app is resumed.
To resolve this try the following:
Turn battery optimization off for the apps in question, and check to see if android puts them to sleep (and turn it off for the app if it does).
You can exclude the app from battery optimization by going to settings > apps and then look for the app and select it. From there select "optimize battery usage", select all apps (on the battery optimization page) and find your app. You need to have it toggled off for android to not optimize the battery.
To check if android is putting it to sleep go to settings > device care and select battery at the bottom. After that the battery page will be shown, press the three dots at the top right and select settings. Select "Sleeping Apps" and see if your app is listed (and if so emove it from the list)
Alternatively if you want you can disable the ability for android to put apps to sleep. Under settings > device care > battery > press the 3 dots at top right > press settings you can toggle "put unused apps to sleep" off to stop this from happening.
If you want to leave the feature enabled then you can adjust how long it will take before an app goes to sleep. Press on "Put unused apps to sleep" and select a time frame higher then what the default is.
Myself personally I turned off the "put unused apps to sleep" and have not had any issues at all.
thanks a lot buddy. I'll try all the things that you suggest and i'll return back.
Have a nice day
