IP Communicator displays wrong time issue

Hello,

Currently time setting on the IP Communicator is not

synchronized with CCM. IP Communicator displays GMT only.

IP phones display correct time (GMT-4).

IP Communicator is in same Device Pool(CMLocal) as Cisco IP phones.

CCM 4.13

IP Communicator 2.12

Does anyboy has any suggestion?

Your reply is highly appreciated.

USER INTERFACE: does not display time using CallManager time zone

Symptom:

----------------

The time on the IP Communicator phone is incorrect. The time displayed is GMT

instead of local time zone.

Problem:

----------------

If the CM Date/Time group uses 'local time zone of CallManger' instead of

explicit time zone setting, the IP Communicator will display the time in GMT.

Workaround:

----------------

Explictily set the time zone setting to the local time zone

Hi Hin,

This bug CSCec78626 seems to happen on older IP communicator version(1.x)

I already create a new device pool for soft phones only, and set the time zhone to local time zone(GMT-4).

The soft phones still display GMT time, not local time(GMT-4).

Any more suggestion?

If your post is helpful,i will rate it.

Hi All,

I know that this question is quite old.  However, I think that it isstill relevant today.  I have a CIPC version 2.1.0 and have run it againstversion 7.1 and version 8.0 of CUCM and got the same results:  clockshowing GMT.

I have a specific issue with central time (GMT -6).  I had configured GMT -6 Americas/Winnipeg and ran into the clock issue.

I tried GMT -6 Americas/Regina and my CIPC would not even register...wouldget past "Updating Locale".

The one that worked for me was GMT -6 Americas/Chicago...this one is compatible with older phone loads and did the trick for me.

Seems a bit flaky so try different setting for your Date/Time group and hopefully you will eventually get the right one.

Cheers!!

Ran into the same issue, had to switch to one of the time zones with the +- at the end so that it worked for older version loads (as listed under DateTime). Once I changed to one of those, I was fine, but when I used one like Toronto that doesn't have the indicator, it didn't work for my IP Comm.
