  Comments:
The 何時 in that GG5 examples is most likely なんじ, not いつ. Probably best to drop the kanji form to prevent false matches. 
This isn't always interchangeable with いつでも. I think "whenever" and "at any time" are misleading.
It's often used in negative sentences, where it's better translated as "never" (e.g. いつになっても慣れない, いつになっても色褪せない).

I think it is a synonym of いつでも
