Time Zone Mystery

(1/3) > >>

HHillsman:
I am quite puzzled by this issue, as I've never owned a piece of IT gear that has exhibited this previously.  With the time zone and DST settings correct for my location (Los Angeles - GMT-8, DST enabled) the time shows one hour later than it is.  My workaround was to switch to Alaska time.  Not a big deal, really, other than what I anticipate could be a problem when the seasonal DST changes occur.

Very grateful for any light you can shed on this.

N7AS:
Did you see if the DaylightSaving setting was correct?

HHillsman:
N7AS, hi!

...and thank you for your swift response.

I believe so.  DST runs from March to November...offset is 1...local timezone is Pacific.  I've attached a screenshot of the settings from Obitalk.  Currently showing 1 hour later than it really is.

SteveInWA:
Your timezone settings are years out of date.  Recall that the US added more days to DST by starting earlier and ending later?  This leads me to believe you've done something to remove your device from OBiTALK and its firmware updates.

Change the settings:

HHillsman:
Hi, SteveInWa - thank you for jumping in!

I've updated the settings to align with your suggestion (please see enclosed) and have the same result:  my phone is one hour ahead of the actual time.  I guess Obihai is just a bit in the future.

Interestingly, the first DST settings I tried were based on info from a web search (also enclosed).  The start and end dates had no effect on the time displayed, however.

I'm pretty sure auto-updates are on and that the phones software is not out-of-date.  The phone is two days old and has software version 6.2.3 (Build: 4860.1311).

Again, many thanks for your suggestions!
