My phone keeps changing the timezone...

**hgellings** · 03-21-2011, 08:41 PM

For the last couple days my phone changes timezones from the right time to Mexico City time. Nothing has changed... I'm still in the same location. I have done several battery pulls, but that doesn't seem to be helping. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas of how to fix it??

It's a bug. I've had that problem with multiple bb's. I've never heard of a fix. It usually only happens during DST. Bb seems to have had problems coding for time changes. It took years for them to even have the ability to make automatic time zone changes.

Well that sucks! Thanks for letting me know though.

IT'S THE LAPTOP!!!!!
I have been having the exact same problem and it's been driving me crazy for weeks. I was almost about to throw out the BB because my calendar became unusable.
CHANGE THE TIME ZONE ON THE COMPUTER YOU ARE SYNCING TO.
Fixed the issue for me! Thank you guys so much!

Both posts above are correct. If you have your computer set to the wrong time zone, and you are synching the BB time to the PC time in Desktop Manager (which is enabled by default), then either fix the PC time or disable synching (you don't need to do it anyway). That will fix the problem.

However, if your computer is set to the correct time and time zone (because DST rules vary), or you are not synching time, then you may be experiencing a variation of the Eniwetok bug, which has been around forever and it apparently unfixable.
