My time is constantly off by an hour (slow). - Motorola Q Forum

GameGuru · 10-25-2007, 09:54 AM

I will go into Settings and then Clock & Alarm and set the time and a few hours later it will be 1 hour off (slow). Is there some setting forcing it to set via the network and it's time is off, and if so, how do I turn that off. This is frustrating.

did you ever do the DST update from MS?
go to www.windowsmobile.com and look for the 'daylight savings time' update

also make sure your in the right time zone

I had the same problem with mine. Turns out I had the wrong time zone set.

MOL3 on vzw has the timezone update in it. Might be easier to do that so it's in there permanently.

I am in Ohio so I am -5 I believe. This just started happening the last week, I have had my Q since June. I am on Sprint.

The DST update shouldnt matter anymore because once we passed what was the original dst time it would be set right even without the update.
