15th March 2007

My time wouldn’t stay set on my Blackberry, which was driving me crazy. Apparently nobody has told Verizon and Blackberry that daylight savings time came early this year.

In the options – 8 times section, of my Blackberry settings, in addition to changing the time to be correct, I had to choose the date/time source to be set to “off”.

Leaving date/time source set to either Blackberry or, to “network” (I’m on Verizon) continues to revert the time back an hour.

Not just one, but THREE people I’ve met in the last few days have asked me about this, so I figured I would post.

    Thanks for the post about time being reset. My Samsung smart phone keeps reverting also which was messing up all my calendar appointments. I found my equivalent date/time source and turned it off, too. It was driving me batty. I thought by now Verizon would have corrected this.
