Sorry to post this one again but maybe this is a mutual problem.

I did not loose my clock display from the home screen but...

>On monday morning (1st Apr), when I turned it on, my OG reported that the
internal time had changed. This was correct with the summertime advance in
the time by 1 Hour. The OG wanted to know if I would like to set the new
time to the selected city clock, in the world time app.

Then I went to the world time app and found that none of the cities were
being listed.
