Calendar Appointments Showing Up 1 Hour Earlier - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a user who's Eris has a recurring appointment that shows up 1 hour earlier than it's scheduled to be. He's syncing through Exchange and the appointment shows up at the proper time in Outlook, just not on his phone.
Manually changing each event works but if you try to change the entire series it stays at the incorrect time.
The originator of the appointment won't be back until next week otherwise I would have her delete the meeting and resend it. Any thoughts on what might be going on? All of his other appointments are on time. This seems to be the only one.

Maybe the time zone or DST is off on his phone?

I have the same problem as this with an HD2 running a Desire Android build (MDJ FroYo Sense Clean v. 2.4 [kernel: MDJ S6.1)
I have used HTC Sync to sync my Outlook calendar and contacts to my HD2. This is all OK but the appointment times in both Android and HTC sense calendars are showing as 1 hour early, i.e. Appointment with real start time of 10:00 shows as 09:00.
My time settings all appear to be OK, GMT+0, London for UK. Time is correct. Auto update is enabled and working.
What is more weird is that I have installed the Android version of Pocket Informant, as I use this in WM6.5.x mode, and this shows the times correctly.
I've searched forums for solution and found many fixes for incorrect GMT settings or DST problems, but these do not seem to fit with this issue as Clock times appear to be OK.
Not sure if this is a problem with this build, or a more general Android problem.
Any thoughts gratefully received.
Andy

Well, better than and hour late ;-p

htc calendar widget off by a day

i love the htc calendar widget, except that its off by one day. for example, tomorrow is my friends birthday, which is an all day event. my hero widget says its today. same thing happens if i have an appointment set for tomorrow. in the calendar it shows up properly. if my friends birthday was in two days, today it would show the event as "tomorrow" and tomorrow it would show it as "today." any ideas/help?
nobody else has this or knows how to fix it?
I have the same problem but don't know how to fix it. I'm also not able edit the event either.
This is kinda strange. I have this 'error' on just one of my contacts birthdays. All other contacts/tascs etc gets the correct date.
yeah, its doing it on every calendar event for me.
I had this issue over the weekend, but a restart of the phone SEEMS to have fixed it...
same problem.. i think its the manufacture problem..
What Rom Code did you use? No issue with my stock Rom code.

stock. issue still remains with 1.56
I have had this issue on three Sprint Hero's. The problem occurs only with All-Day appointments, and it happens in two places: on the "Event Details" screen and in the smaller of the two HTC Calendar widgets. In all other places (the main calendar, the event editing screen) the dates are fine. It is an infuriating bug, and makes the smaller of the two calendar widgets unusable. I thought HTC would surely fix it in the first maintenance release, but they did not! How something like this could get past QA is amazing...!
Change time zone
Did you change time zone when the issue happened? it may the root cause.

[Q] Help with the HTC Calendar please

I'm just having a hard time trying to figure something out. I need to set 3 appointments that occur monday through friday. In my old blackberry I could just click weekly and then select the days of the week I want it to occur on every week. However in the HTC calendar all it lists under repeat is "does not repeat, every xday, day xx of every x month, every xmonth and xx day."
is there a way to set it easier or do I need to actually go in and make a different appointment for every day of the week?

do it in outlook on the PC is wayyyyyy the easiest way to handle the trainwreck that is the htc calendar.
you could unlock the standard snooze times, and set teh reminder for monday, then hit snooze 1 day when it goes.

Wouldn't I then have to use activesync? from what I've seen everyone says it doesn't work right, or work with windows 7 at all.
I'm on android now, but used winmo and win7 syncing outlook with never a problem. Outlook on the pc is my primary pim for years, and I've had win7 since the beta.
Its called windows mobile device center in win7 and you will want to Google and instal the updated version.

[Q] Gmail Sync Question

Ok, I am going to feel really stupid, because I am sure there is a simple fix here.
I am noticing that my gmail accounts only seem to sync 1 per day and I cannot seem to force them to manually sync (through refresh or sync now) or increase the automatic sync frequency.
Any clue how to address this?
Thanks in advance

Same here. Sometime I recive emails immidiatly, but sometimes it has 2 h lag...
Solution here, solved it for me: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=646#c74
In detail, here is the solution, it was the cookie problem for me:
Comment 5 by luke.hutch, Oct 27 (6 days ago)
If you get the cookie problem, you just need to log out of your Gmail account and log
back in again, it allocates a new cookie. This happens sometimes on updating your
firmware image without wiping. The cookie is tied to some magic number in the phone
or firmware.
If you don't have the cookie problem but did upgrade your phone in the last couple of
days to one of T-Mobile's new "project dark" plans that everyone is crazy about, they
may have forgotten to re-provision your account with the Android data feature (they
did with my account, and all ports but 80 were blocked).
If neither of those fix the problem, I have found that in general, anything and
everything that syncs in the background (Google Voice, Twidroid, Gmail, etc.) fails
to sync with cyanogenmod versions running BFS.
The problem is... how do you log out and relogon to Google again without factory wipe? Solution here:

Calendar bug? [Solved]

[SOLVED]: Realized that my time zone in outlook.com was different than the one on Outlook 2013. Changing the time zones to match has fixed my problem.
When I use Outlook 2013 to create an appointment on Monday any time after 16:00 (4:00 pm), the appointment gets pushed to the Sunday on the phone.
If I tap into the appointment, the event date will still say "Monday" but its pinned location on the calendar is on Sunday.
Can anyone try reproducing this?
Process:
Create an appointment on Monday at 16:30 (4:30 pm) on Outlook 2013
Sync the calendar with your phone
Check your phone calendar to see if the phone pinned the event on the following Sunday or the Sunday before
Thanks much!
What gets pinned to the live tile is the notification, which goes 24h earlier than the event originates. The alarm itself will go off at the time u have specified. It sux big time, but I dunno how to by-pass this. Tried everything

Oh I'm not talking about the live tile. I'm talking about the location of the event in the calendar app itself. Are your notifications going off too early?
Just for the birthdays which r downloaded from FB, they go off exactly 1 day earlier - it seems that this is the default setting and cannot be altered.

That's interesting. Facebook doesn't display birthdays on my phone at all. Do I have to enable it somewhere?
Go to ur calendar settings, and there enable birthday calendar.

Question Outlook in work profile - possible bug on S23

Have been using Outlook in my work profile with no issues on a Pixel 6 for the past 2 years. Switched to a S23U a few days ago and am periodically unable to see my Outlook calendar. S23U just displays a blank calendar with no events and claims that all available calendars are hidden. Force quitting Outlook and restarting it immediately resolves the issue. Anyone else seen that?
I am 100% stock ATT firmware. The only slightly unusual thing I do is that I also install Outlook in my personal profile which allows my Garmin Fenix 7 watch to catch notifications from Outlook. The Outlook in the personal profile is completely unconfirmed, but it does seem to see notifications from the work profile and allows the Fenix to catch and display them. Had the same setup on the Pixel 6 and it worked without any issues.
No issues on mine. Outlook for work in secure folder and personal outlook in my standard profile all working as expected.

Have not, I try to not deal with first level tech support when I can avoid it. I don't need to be told to reboot the phone and clean cache 5x despite me telling them that I have already tried that
I use Outlook for my work account and I have not had any issues with the calendar (I live and die by my calendar). Both in the app and the app widget are working perfectly fine for me.
Go into the app and go to settings, account, reset account and your calendar sync issue should then be sorted.
This method shouldn't wipe your account, so no need to start messing trying to set it all back up again.

I think there is a bug with the Samsung Calendar app (including Calendar storage).
Although my case is different from yours, this is what my problem is:
I use Your Calendar Widget on my Homescreen instead of Google Calendar Widget. If I edit a calendar entry, such as changing the event date, the event disappears from this 3rd party widget, although the Google Calendar Widget shows the event in the right place after the edit.
I use the same setup on my OnePlus phone and I don't have this problem there, so a problem with the 3rd party app can be ruled out.
