6234 Change to/from daylight saving time or summer time

We have just changed back to winter time, and I am sure that there is a way to make the phone change, without setting the time. I can only find time zones, and have set it to GMT (which is my local zone), but even so, I am sure that there is another menu item somewhere to change to and from summer time. The phone time did not change, so it was already on the right time zone.

I've looked in the user guide, but there is no mention of it.

I can't remember what I did 6 months ago.

Hi peterqb

Presumably in your (Settings) (Time and Date) (Auto-update of date & time) is turned ON ?
Happy to have helped the forum in a small way from 2007-10

No. Although I have tried that, it does not seem to work. See the thread about NZ SMS time stamps: it seems not to work there either.

Thanks for the tip.

I was wondering if there's a setting somewhere that I have missed.

My other (S60) phone changed automatically.

On every phone I've had, both Ericsson and Nokia, the auto time update has only worked when it felt like it. Better just to switch it off and adjust the time zone manually.
