The time change was supposed to be fixed by FW 3.06, but it is only partially. If left unplugged for a long period, the clock changes (not resets), which I find peculiar.
Re the transmitter, do you have the 1st gen transmitter? (You can recognize it easily as there is no lettering on the bottom of the housing). That one had a problem because it was designed to be paired even without being pressurized (mounted on the tank), so it would send/receive a signal every now and then draining the battery. The newer transmitters (with the text on the bottom) have a new firmware which prevents it from sending/receiving signals all the time. The transmitter is switched on by pressure when mounted on the tank, which prolongs battery life significantly, but prevents the pairing process unless the transmitter is pressurized.
If you have the old transmitter, take it to your Mares dealer. They should be able to change the transmitter with the newer one. (The lettering change is only cosmetic. The new transmitters have a new firmware, but you can't update it yourself.)
I dived this last weekend and I think it is the first time in months I didn't think about the transmitter freezing on me again. That is good news.
I'm going diving this weekend. Maybe Murphy will show up
