[Q] Hd2 since daylight savings time problem. - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My hd2 lately has been acting rather strange. Since daylight savings my phone has been skipping hours seemingly at random, If I change the time manually about half an hour later it will have changed the time by itself to a few hours in advance.
I've tried updating the time through the internet but i've had no luck so far.
I'm currently running chuckys GTX but that isn't the problem because yesterday I had the same problem with Energy rom.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

HD2 daylight saving time problem
I also have this problem since daylight saving.
The phone random changes time, now its 2 hours ahead of normal time.
I also tried everey setting I can find.
Please help me (us)!

I am also having this problem, I turned off internet time sync, but it is still happening, I'll post here if i find a fix!!

I am having same problem as well. Called helpdesk HTC. For them its new. They want to know which provider i use. (Vodafone NL) They want to know if the problem also happens with other providers?
I also installed a stock rom 3.14 and nothing else and still have the problem of random changing the time +1 hour.

wow that is weird... were do you guys live, I live in the US and were changing our time next weekend hopefully this doesnt happen to my phone too

hi.
i have the same problem.
this is rom or radio issue?

The same problem here. If i change time manually, leo will change it by itself in couple of hours. Even if time is changed manually, message will come with a bad time indicator. Automatic time synchronization doesnt help. :\
Stock ROM

This could be your solution (it was mine)

Dutty in his ROM thread posted a cab that would solve that problem. I haven't tried it since I don't have that problem.
YMMV.

see the thread inthe general section for a possible fix....
worked for me (reg edits).....

reply
I just preformed a hard reset. For me it was no problem, the phone was slow for weeks and only tomtom navigator is important to me.
So my problem is solved now thanks to the hard reset.
For the other people, good luck with this problem...I have Vodafone NL btw
Greets

Sorry..problem is back..HARD RESET DOES NOT WORK!

big problem with dst
I think this i s a big problem and maybe only patch can fix this.
I have tried to re-install windows (flash ROM) with the latrest original ROM from HTC
I have tried to get registry backup from another HD2 which doesn't have this problem. it doesn't work.
I have tried to to flash without having SIM card in it and doesn't apply any wireless connection. Windows doesn't know my location and time. Then i connect to GSM operator in Bulgaria and the clock turns one hour ahead then i turn on my Google location services and my phone turns 2 hours ahead.
I'm really pissed off and i think this will be a big trouble... even flashing ROM doen't help, then what...???
ofcourse you can stop all your connections and there will be no problem if you set the correct date, time and location, but this means that i'll never use wheather...
please help. maybe it is time to write to htc support i don't know...
btw i have also android on my hd2 and there is no problem with time.... i really have no ideia...

I also have the same problem my GSM provider is MTel BG

I'm with Globul

Time Problem
I've got the same problem.
@ "drei" Provider in Austria.
-Elegancia V2 and
-actual LEOpard ROM
Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14
all tips since now tested (REG-hack, all time sync options off, reset and more...) without success
Time changes +1h as its wants to. Also @ SMS or call.
the crazy thing is that i changed the Time Zone from "GMT+1 Prague, Budapest" to "GMT+1 Berlin, Rome" and after the first +1h count, time Zone is "GMT+1 Prague, Budapest" again..!!??
please help! im going crazy about this

In Bulgaria i have the same problem. It changes from +2 Minsk to +2 Sofia, Talin...
I think we must write to HTC support and then waiting for patch...
But the most strange thing i found is how this can happen when you falshed your HD2 with the latest ROM from HTC... This means that the configuration is not in Windows Mobile, maybe in something like BIOS or i don't know... Mayby we have bad servers in registry which gave us these troubles and we can;t find them. This trouble doen't appear with Android in same network with same hardware. Maybe Android has another servers for time synchronization...

Problem for me has been solved by duttys wintertimefix.cab
It's in his Rom thread under the cab repository link.

I had the same problem (Sweden Telia) but Dutty's fix seems to do it's work!
Impressive Dutty!!
To bad that ignorant HTC doesn't want to aknowledge problems with their phones, not the first.... An iphone4 seems more and more appealing
Thanks again Dutty!

O2 XDA II Hangs

Hi guys,
I have just bought an o2 xda ii and am having serious problems
was trying to establish a bluetooth connection with nokia 6600 and it just froze displaying the today screen
now xda hangs after switching on and nothing works only the bluetooth light keeps on flashing
cant try anything as it doesnt function at all.
Can anybody help
Isn't There anyone who can help me...??????
Isn't There anyone who can help me...?????? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
when you mean turn on do you talk about turn on as in turn on the top power connector
or a softreset ?
if you mean top power connector then that dont reset the pda you need to do a softreset
if you did mean a softreset then i dont know any other way then a hardreset which of cause delete all your data
Inderts the stylus in the reset hole, if that doesnt work then as the man said you will need to do a hard reset and all data will be lost, hard reset is done by pressing power while inserting stylus in reset hole.
Hi
Thanks for yr reply
I have aslo tried a hard reset but no luck
The device switches on and freezes on the blue O2 screen or sometimes goes thru the setup procedure & freezes at the today screen
Tried it a couple of times
Is there any other way please let me know.
Thanx again :? :? :?
Which ROM do you use? You can try to flash your ROM. There are plenty of treads on this forum on how to do this. Make sure you don't use a USB hub when connected to flash you're ROM. Your MDA II must be connected to a normal USB connection (I learned it the hard way....)
Wouter
Hi
Sorry for the late reply as i was out of town
Dunno exactly how to identify the rom version but when switched on it shows
R 1.05.14
G 1337.14
D 1.03.00 USA
Can u please suggest what to do
Thanx
You can see which ROM version you have by going to:
Settings, System tab and then Device information.
Mine says:
ROM version 1.60.00WWE
ROM date: 12/03/03
Radio version: 1.06.01
Protocol version: 1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.60.06
So I guess you can do a ROM upgrade. To find out how to do it, just do a search on this forum for ROM upgrade and you'll find detailed describcions on how to do it. Make sure that your device is not connected via a USB hub otherwise you can have some trouble getting it done.
Wouter
Thanx for the prompt reply but the problem is that the device starts goes on thru the new device setup programme & hangs nuthing beyong that
So am unable to go to the system settings
Is there any other way i can see the rom version...
Well the colors at the beginning tell you which ROM you have (but are only very short on the screen so hard to read) but you can defenitely upgrade.

No Bluettoth Hardware Installed Error Msg
Hey, this sounds like the same problem I have too! I have just posted a new subject in the "Using It" section of this Forum. Does your device also suffer from the following i.e. when the software ha loaded and you hit the bluetooth icon, does this error message come up "There is No Bluetooth Hardware Installed on this Device"? Pls read my post below.
"I have an XDA II, bought from the UK. I live in E. Africa so sending it back is a hassle. EVer since I bought it, although it was OK for a few days, a msg then came up saying "There is no bluetooth hardware installed on this device". This means I cannot put b/t on or off. Also, it affects the performance of the XDA II as it crashes frequently and loses ActiveSync connections frequently. The odd thing is that SOMETIMES, after a hard reset, it's OK again. But then when I do a subsequent hard or even soft reset the same problem occurs! So it DOES work. But not consistently. I conttacted O2 by email & tel. They were semi-helpful. I returned the XDA II to the O2 repair centre in London by courier (expensive). It came back, apparently repaired, but they had addressed the wrong thing and the problem still persists! I am loathe to sending it back without trying something for it - if you have any suggestions. Perhaps I can try a Rom Update or something to see if it sorts it. Even O2 are baffled, but I do not have the privilege of sending it off again because of where I live. Any suggestions or advice please? Many thanks. "
'Frozen' O2 screen with bluetooth light flashing
Hi to all,
I 've been having similar problems since I got my unit last November. You may be able to relate with my problems.. screen won't respond to any taps.. when you send SMS, the 'Send' button freezes... tried soft resetting, sometimes lucky, gets back to normal... at worst, does a hard reset...
after a few months of no reliable answer from local and foreign XDA help.. i'm used to either removing my battery/sim.. wait for awhile.. try to find a place where there's better network signal.. then, puts back the SIM and battery.. many times a get lucky by doing this... but there are also times that I had to do hard reset.. like two hours ago..
Hopefully, some help will come ...
For those who have yet to develop a routine to address similar problem, you may try mine...
Helpless xda II fanatic(???)
Archel Angeles
I have similar experience too. I got my XDAII last November, it runs smoth without a single hang for the first month until one day in January, while using it reboot by itself, after that day the device will just reboot anytime anywhere!
Thinking that this might be caused by some installed softwae, I hard reset my device. After the initial setup then it hang while running the auto installation from the extended rom saying that some file is missing. I hard reset again and it still hang while running the auto installation but saying another file is missing. On the day alone, I hard reset my device for more than 10 times! Each time it will either hang on the O2 startup screen or during the auto installation. Until finally one time manage to pass through the initial setup and auto installation.
On the second day, I quickly bring my set to the service centre for repair, while I describe and showing the faulty set to the service officer, the device self reboot for another couple of times.
I took back my set two days later, the service officer told me they cannot find the fault of this so they re-flash the rom for me, and they have tested it with internet browsing, mms, sms etc without any problem.
The 'repaired' set works fine for another one month until couple of week ago it start to hang during some incoming calls. When call was received, I press the answer key to answer the phone, the device would just hang with the ballon still showing on the screen, i'm not able to answer the call at all.
Last Friday, I finally hard reset the device again and re-install some my software applicaton and games. Second day morning while I was waiting for my friend, I start to attach photo to my contact, just when I attached the first photo and click on the save, the device hang! I press the soft reset button and the screen goes off without rebooting. I press the reset button again but the screen just won't come back. I even took out the battery and put in my backup battery, still the screen refuse to come back! The screen only come back when I performed a hard reset.
Today i found another problem with the device, the free memory is getting lesser and lesser by itself! Just before I type this reply, I soft reset my device and leave my device on the momory status screen, the allocated momory for the program showing 63.02Mb, in used 16.96MB and the Free momory 46.06MB. Now the in use memory increases to 30.75MB while the Free memory drops to 32.27MB!! I did not run anything in the background, I did not even tough my device!!
Anybody here can help save my device?
I have the same problem now. It is really a nightmare for all of us!!!
Exactly
Have a very similar problems 4 days in the row. Self-Blackhangs without any knowing reason. Impossible to use device longer then 10 min. HELP!!!
P.S. Some days before I try to uninstall Intellisync, wich I try, but does not use for a long time. Uninstall was unsuccessful cause .exe was "in use". There problems begins. May be. After one of hard-resets I remove .exe manually and then uninstall prog, but problems persists.
Hi guys, Fortunatly I do not have the same problems with my XDA II but I was thinking maby it is a type of software that has been installed on the device, I have noticed that some apps can cuase VERY strange things to happen (Even some THEMES!!!).... LOOK out for this..
Maybe you could try and run the XDA II after doing a hard reset as bare as possible... As in not installing any other themes or thirdparty software for a day or two and see if the device still gives your any problems... Will be interesting to find out.. I have had resets on my XDA II from using some themes avalible from the O2 website (that users have made not O2, but still) and since using the default theme I have not had a crash or a reboot since... (THIS TOOK ME FORVER to find out)... but might be worth a try..
Keep us all informed how you go with things.. Hopfully its just a pice of software or somthing simple like that...
GOOD LUCK ALL!!!
So, guys, I think that there is a HW problem. MDA freezing during initial install or during HardReset before install. Maybe "motherboard" is microbroken or so on.
Week ago I return my MDAII to T-Mobile and they will repair it to some way. I will report this way to you all as soon as possible. Let we see.

Hi all,
I have the following devis info of mine:
ROM version 1.66.00WWE
ROM date: 02/20/04
Radio version: 1.10.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.101
This Rom works great, just search for it and upgrade!!
Wish you all luck!!!
sounds a lot like the problem I'm having.
Can any of you guys install a new rom at all? mine freezes up and activesync disconnects the second it does... So I guess when flashing your rom and having it freeze up on you, you'd be even further from a solution... thoughts pls
I fixed it guys...
seems a corrupted rom was the problem hitting bootloader mode (power + action + stylus) and installing a new rom fixed my problems
let me know how it works out for you guys

GPS doesn't find any satellite

Hi guys,
I've got an issue with my HTC S740 with the GPS
I've got Garmin Mobile XT and my GPS never find any satellite.
On the GPS settings, the GPS is setup on COM4:COM4: (the other choice is COM7:COM7, but Garmin is always setting automatically on COM4)
Even with GoogleMaps, the GPS is not recognize (I mean not signal)
As I cannot change or find the port used by the GPS, do you have any idea to make the GPS running onb my dear Rose ?
Thx
Murray Bozinski
are you in a building?
i had the same problem but after 2 resets it started working again... dont know what caused it but i think it might be 2 apps using the same port?

I already try to reset my Rose, but no success... I also try the "Microsoft_Smartphone_GPSID_Settings.cab" but the program said "You've got insufficient privileges" when I click on apply...
That's so strange
Ok, I'm getting crazy now...
Here is the summarize of the diffrent tests i've done :
ROM version : 1.14.406.0 (10/27/08)
Inital Config :
Launching QuickGPS
Tried to use the GPS with GoogleMaps and Garmin Mobile XTwith default config
After 45mn outside, no signal
GPSID Settings :
After installing GPS Intermediary Driver (GPSID), i tried to change the baud rate to 4800 (was set to 300) or change the tick box "Manage Automatically". When I click on "Done", I get an error message "An error occured in Settings.exe...". On "Details", i get an NullReferenceException in DoneButtonClicked() function.
And when I try to change the hardware port, i've got another error message : "You have insufficient permissions to map the hardware port"
GPS Test :
Ok, i don't give up, I tried GPS Test 1.04
Hard reset and installed GPS Test
So it found the Port4 as a GPS receiver, but it couldn't get any signal
The first time, it found one or two satellites but the color remains yellow, "GPS Starting up", with "Fix 1D"
So still no signal in GoogleMaps, neither Garmin
Please, I really need some help !!!
Any idea are welcome
IMHO it definitely looks as an hardware failure. Static and under open sky it shouldn't take more than 75 seconds to localize (cold start, without A-GPS). Normally if I start GPS within Google Maps it takes less than 10 seconds to get position.
At least you probably won sad prize having first Rose with HW failure (as far as I know from all s740 related forums which I read).
I had the same issue. Tried GPSID, Google Maps (0 satellites), GPS Test (stucked on COM4)... Nothing worked. (I was always trying it outside for a few minutes with QuickGPS updated. My other phone got the fix within 15 seconds)
Today I master reset the phone, set date, updated QuickGPS, installed Google Maps... Fix within 15-20 seconds.

What's finally bad news (sorry Murray ). For me that means - GPS radio in Rose (at least using default ROM) may freeze and stop responding to OS for unknown reason.
In the best case (a bit funny), it's sensitive to proper time/date/timezone setting...
Guys, I decide to go back to the shop where I bought my phone and they said this is the second Rose they received with the same issue.
So they give my money back and I finally deceided to buy a Palm Treo Pro.
I'm a bit disapointed with HTC (my previous S730 was really bad quality)
Now I'm very happy with the TP
Thanx for your support
Murray Bozinski
i think that this is software problem
my gps disappears too when I change my ROM to Orange Orange_UK_1.17.61.2
previous version works fine with GPS
and there is no any GPS software (like GoogleMaps) in Orange ROM.
So if your ROM is Orange too - this may be ROM bug
I try to change ROM to stock 1.14.707.0 soon
hi all, i had the same gps issue and could not get a fix using googlemaps and some other software amazegps, . i tried several hard resets but nothing seemed to work.
after a few days of investigation i bought copilot 7 from a guy on ebay, hard reset again.... then booted her up. after 5 minutes i had a fix and was being directed down my road.. written on my favourite htc phone so far... s740
Never get gps
My Rose buy in Portugal in November has the same problem. Never get any signal sattelites(fix).
Rose version: 1.14.401.1
Rom data: 10/06/08
Radio version: 0.24.30.24
My first ROM (beta 1.07) was russian with Google-maps pre-installed. GPS works fine
then I try to change it to Orange UK 1.17 ROM. There is no built-in GoogleMaps and GPS doesn't work
I try to use stock english ROM 1.14. In this case there is no GoogleMaps and GPS doesn't work too
Yesterday I found russian rom 1.14 and try it. This ROM has pre-installed version of GoogleMaps and.. GPS works!
So in my opinion there is no GPS driver or something else in some ROMs. But if ROM must have pre-installed GPS software then GPS driver of course exists and everything works fine
I can take link to russian 1.14 ROM to compare it with english 1.14 ROM
Looks like mine works too after a Hard Reset with Google Maps, GPSTest and gpsVP. Interesting...
i work with Garmin XT and Mc Guider and no problem.
my settings is
Port: COM 4
Baud : 19200
GPS on my Rose worked fine after hard reset but I didnt use the phone for few weeks, installed some new software and then it stopped working once again.
Fortunately I was able to fix that just changing the port number and restarting.

Awaiting Better GPS Accuracy
My question to HTC Customer Service:
GPS radio in my HTC s740 freezes and stop responding during undefined time. For example, when I use Garmin Mobile XT for Windows Mobile 5.00.20w GPS works, but suddently it writes: "Awaiting Better GPS Accuracy" and stop responding during undefined time. Google Maps have this problem too. Hardware reset cannot help, may be it's ROM software error? My HTC Rose have СЕ OS 5.2.20279 (Build 20279.1.3.4), Radio Version 12.23.30.06H_0.24.30.24. Rom version: 1.14.402.0 (25.10.2008). Send me please ROM upgrade or specify another method to resolve this problem. Thanks!

My answer to HTC Customer Service:
The same problem with GPS also have some my friends (s740 model seller: Latvia Mobile Telephone, www.lmt.lv ). You can find the same problem at internet forums, for example here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=465564 May be it's a global problem for all s740 phones (hardware or software)? I know, that new models of HTC Rose have new ROM, for example: RUU_Rose_HTC_RUS_1.14.411.1_Radio_sign_12.23.30.06_0.24.30.24_CRC_Ship Can you help me more seriously? It seems that we haven't a HTC local customer in Latvia. Thanks for answer.

Do another hard reset. It worked for me. After the reset, I've updated QuickGPS, installed Sygic and it worked.

Hard reset do not resolve this problem. It's ROM or hardware internal bug (see my post to HTC support). Try to change GPS COM port to COM8: (for exampe, via Resco Registry):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver
\Multiplexer
DriverInterface = COM8:
5 days it works ОК on my HTC Rose, may be it's a slolution of GPS freezing problem? Please write here if this solution helps you...
P.S. May be somebody says about this actual problem to HTC support?

[Q] Bug with time changes

Hi all, am I the only french here ? Or maybe in the other country there is a time changes, but since this morning my HD2 changes itself the hour ! I try all the option, with / without time sync, I am on the last official HTC ROM ( new HR this morning I was with Energy ROM and there was the bug too ! )
So what am I supposed to do ? Am I the only one ?
Thanks

Did you test to do a soft reset without your SIM card?
Reason way I mention this is because lot of peoples have communicate the same situation today, and after some test if thy remove the Sim problem seems to be solved.
This problem is in investigation by lot of custom rom builders, but at this moment we wait to see a true solution (But it seems NLD users don't have problems) but other aria users mention this problem to

[Q] Time update problem after Rom update

hey there guys,
i updated the rom of my HD2 with the latest version available on Htc site. the problem now is that time changes by itself and though i have checked "get time from the internet " it can`t update corectly
gmt+2 is set , i put the time corect and after some time it goes by itself one hour or 2 in advance, sometimes even more.....don`t know where the problem is.....
I connect it to the internet and though it sees my location good it can`t get and keep the right hour!
What could be the problem??
Thanks
Try search next time. There are several discussions about this. This works for me.
Go to Settings\ Menu\ All settings\ Personal\ Phone\ Gsm/umts Services\
Time Synchronisation\ Then press Get Settings, Unselect the box and press ok!
seems to be working for me.
I´m also having this problem.
A few ours after setting the correct time, it´s suddenly several ours of - often as much as 1.5 day of actually.
I have hardreseted but the problem is still there.
I have also tried the solution above without success.
Does anybody know whats going on?

[Q] HD2 Clock Keeps changing time.. Annoying...

Hello all.
I have a little, but very annoying problem on my HD2. Im on 3.14, 3.03, WWE flashed with SSPL (previously was blocked on a ****ty NLD (dutch) version rom)
All is working fine, ive installed many apps, and games.
However, it seems when i exit some games (tower defence is very buggy, or gameloft Ferrari game), i go back to the home screen and i notice the clock has changed time. But im not sure its the games that do that, i just dont know what makes it change.
Say its 9.15, it will be 11.15. If its 7.20, it will show 9.20.
It seems it always adds 2 hours on my time. How come? Data connection is always turned off (i dont wanna use it) and its not connected to internet, so it cannot check internet time. But why is it doing this suddenly? wasnt doing this a few days ago, and i havnt really installed new stuff in those pas few days.
Thanks in advance for all explanations
Afgter having looked into the problem, it appears it is because of GMT zones and IGO8 nav programme.. any one else had a similar problem with the software?
I think it syncs gps time (greenwich) and this is what creates the problem, or at least the software is inteferring with the phone... damn..
Nobody else has this problem? I thought it was from IGO8 programme, but now when i exit some games, it also changes the time by 1 hour. Why is this? The minutes are always correct, its just the hour that jumps 1 or 2 hours..
This is really frustrating.. Anyone has some help suggestions? (apart from buying a proper watch? )
Thx!
Assuming that you have the correct time zone, then the problem is that the phone is getting its timing from the phone network.
Settings -> Menu -> All Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> GSM\UMTS Services -> Time Synchronization -> Get Settings. Untick 'Automatic change time zone and clock'.
Thanks buddy for the clear answer. I didnt even know those setting were available via the "MENU" in the seetings
But i set all time zones correctly, why was it changing the thing? Im GMT+1, and everywhere in my phone it was put in as GMT+1, so why would it add another hour? Anyways, time will tell
Get a +thanks! Will report back to see if time doesnt get distorted again
This is a general problem in HD2 phones all over Europe and all over different ROMs
There are already a lot of threads about it (search "winter time change") and the only solution offered by HTC until now is to switch off time sync completely (in personal -phone settings and settings HTC time sync)
HTC already promised a solution to several members of XDA as posted 3-4 weeks ago but still has no solution to it.
