I believe we've located your problem.

What version of software are you running?

BTW, coding time for phones and time zones is a BITCH. I realize it might appear to be simple, but when you look at the problem in the context of a product going our to be used all over the world . . . BITCH. Just when you think you have it figured out, somebody like Russia decides it's going to change their rules again which instantly means the coding is out of date.

BTW, BTW, Russia just changed its rules for time zones and DST again.

I wish the rest of the world would follow Russia's example and stop this stupid daylight savings time nonsense.
Your rights end where my feelings begin.

I wish it was Daylight Saving Time all the time. Being dark longer in the morning doesn't bother me, and having the extra hour of light in the evening would be great!



My problem is I want the Sun to transit my meridian when it's noon*. That's why they f'in' call it noon.

The rest is just arbitrary.
