    What's with T-Mobile's autodate? It was supposed to automatically change yesterday's time settings to Daylight Savings Time, but did not. I had to waste time and manually set the hour on my 3 cellphones (all Motorola) to adjust for Daylight Savings Time. What use is this feature if I had to use manual? My cablebox automatically adjusted for the time change, so where was T-Mobile? It's not a big deal but it indicates the kind of service they offer. The phones were Moto Razr V3, Moto V300 and Moto V537.

    Worked perfectly for me. You may wish to check to make sure the feature is activated on your phone(s). It is not an automatic feature unless you've enabled it. Once enabled, it always re-syncs your time to TMo's standard.

    Again, worked perfectly on the 2 cell phones I have both on the TMo network.

    On our phones (a Nokia from T-Mo and, a Kyocera from Virgin Mobile, and a Sanyo from Sprint) besides having the automatic time setting enabled, I turned them off then powered back up. Voilą, the screen now shows the proper time. That's always seemed the quickest way to me.

    you may also want to make sure that you are not on a roaming partner tower, some of the cheap regional cellular providers that T-Mobile has roaming agreements with do not have data or auto time updates available on the towers. Try going to a different area (that you know has T-Mobile coverage, or fast data) and see if it updates (by turning your phone off and taking out the battery, then turning it back on again to clear its previous memory).
