Both my ma and I are pre users, and we both showed up to appointments an hour late. It only affected events that were put in to the calendar through the phone interface, not through google.
Did this not get fixed? It is a pain to show up an hour early in the fall, but when springing forward makes you an hour late, that is a true reliability issue.

The time at the top of my phone is an hour early, but when I go to my clock, and my date and time feature, they both say the correct time. I can’t figure out how to get the time at the top to read correctly.

The solution is to leave “detect network time” ON, but turn “network time zone” switch OFF. Hope this fixes it for you as it did for me.

Now that we are getting nearer to being back on Daylight Savings Time I’m noticing the opposite problem as described above:

All appointments that will occur after the switch to daylight savings time that are entered on my computer via Google Calendar show up an hour early on my Pre, and all appointments entered on the Pre that occur after DST show up an hour late on Google Calendar on my computer.

Surely there is a fix for this. I’ve already turned off the detect network time as others have suggested but that has not worked. Help!

Having the same problem despite having tried all the so-called fixes such as disabling network time, re-adding calendars and restarting the phone multiple times. The only thing I haven’t tried yet is completely wiping the device and starting over (again).

I’m having the same problem, along with the Pre issue of Calendar items not syncing from the Pre to Exchange unless I turn network time off and manually put it in another timezone other than Cayman Islands.

Does anyone know if a fix is on the way?

I still have most of my recurring meetings showing up an hour early. I have too many to go create new ones post-DST. Is there a fix planned any time soon?

It is definitely not fixed if the Time Zone is set to Network!!!!!!!!!! (My default auto network time zone is EST (Cayman Islands.) On my Google Calendar, I have a recurring all day event (pay day) that happens every other Friday. On Google, it shows pay days correctly from now to eternity. But on my Pre, it only shows the current, non-daylight savings time dates correctly. All pay dates during DST for April 2010 thru early November 2010 show up on Thursday. But when I check December 2010, it’s back to Fridays. However, if I set the time zone manually (to a midwestern USA city), it works. So something is still amiss…

I’m having the same problem. My reoccuring appointments in exchange show up correctly on my laptop but are 1 hour early on my Palm. My non re-occuring appointments are correct on the Palm. I chatted with Palm support. First they told me to manually turn off the Network settings in the Date/Time section of the Pre, and turn the phone all the way off then on again. That did not work. Then they told me to delete the exchange account and add it again, which I did. That also did not work. I have installed all the updates to Palm OS as well. I’m stumped!

I am having an issue with all recurring appointments. They are showing up 1 hour early in my calendar (which is synced with Exchange). All non-recurring appointments are appearing correctly.
