Day Light Savings time bug in Windows Mobile 6.1?
Sunday, November 02, 2008

I have multiple Windows Mobile 6.1 phones and each one at 2 am EST reverted back to 1 am EST as they should have. An hour later they reverted again, but when I went to edit the time on my three Windows Mobile Phones, I saw that it had placed me -6 (Central Time) instead of - 5 (Eastern Time).

So if you wake up this morning and your phone is behind, check the time zone you are in as Windows Mobile 6.1 seems to be changing your time zone along with the time.

MS has a patch available for this : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/daylight-savings-update.mspx

Why this update isn’t included with brand new phones is beyond me.
