Hey all,
Within the HD2 when you send and receive messages from people with different timezones ordinarily I might expect that it would use the old users time and show me that the reply was say +3 hours, whereas actually it was a few minutes ago.
However it appears that when it orders the messages it takes your local time always, so you can get the situation:
Me: 4.40pm
Reply: 4.45pm (7.45pm users time)
Me: 4.50pm
Reply: 4.55pm (7.55pm users time)
So the message thread becomes:
Me
Me
Reply
Reply
So it becomes completely out of sync and is actually really useless, is there a fix or something I am missing in regards to this?
Thanks!
I have the problem of mine being time stamped 3 minutes earlier than when I got them so when it should be:
Me
Reply
Me
Reply
it becomes

Me

Seems like they've really screwed up the whole conversational messaging thing
I've not been able to fix mine yet
Yes this is a really annoying issue and keeps happening, is there anyway or any fix that is forthcoming for this?
It will mean that threaded messaging just wont work properly with this phone.
SMS Timing
What cell company do you all have? I've noticed other post about this, and I have had the same issue. The common carrier is T-Mobile. My Girlfriend is having the same issue, and she is on T-Mobile with a Touch HD. I am running a Touch HD2, so it's not the phone. I recently flashed the new official ROM 1.403.405.1 (70124). Since then my problem has gone away and not using the SMStimefix.cab file that is out there available (it didn't work).
Hope this helps

Hey,
Yes I am on T-Mobile, its not something I have experienced in the past with a carrier (O2, Orange). So I guess T-Mobile do / dont do something that other carriers do which cause this.
I'll try to look into the SMStimefix to see if it does work or such like. So do other people on O2, Vodafone not have this issue?
i had this problem.... tooo
it really terrbile as i wont able to know which is my sms with his reply
There is an update for the HTC HD2, dated 2010-01-07, named Update for HTC HD2 SIM Contacts.
Now, for those who applied it, what problems did you ran over regarding SIM Contacts, and what is the reason you applied this update anyway.
Moreover, were the problems you find, solved by this update?
Thanks in advance!
I installed the update to ensure i was up to date with hotfixes. i didnt have issues with viewing contacts on the SIM card but I like the fact that this hotfix updates the radio to that included in ROM 1.61.
I applied the patch because it includes a radio update. The patch is misnamed IMO.
Right. However, do you have the SMS-remaining-in-Outbox issue?
If so, did you have it prior to installing this update (the SIM Contact update)?

I haven't heard anyone say that they started getting the SMS outbox issue after applying the radio update. Ive never has that issue.

Never heard of it?
Well, there are only 700 something replies to this thread older thread, that started with an older problem which was apparently "fixed" by some update, but now messages get stuck in Outbox, and 300 something replies on this thread, where people are complaining about this issue.
However, after speaking to some of them in the second thread, they've apparently updated their radio with the update I mentioned in my first post on this thread... Call it karma?
amang22005. Ive obviously heard of the issue, I must have missed the 700 messages you have read stating that it has been seen as a direct consequence of installing the SIM Contact hotfix however.

Good thing your such an expert in sarcasm, m8 !
Now really: howcome I and so many others (who didn't apply the SIM contacts update...just for that...) never had problems with the sms-stuck-in-outbox like issue?
And there is a complete thread of almost 400 posts now, with people confirming that the problem has something to do with the data connection, which, by the way, is treated apparently some way different in the new radio version.
And yet again, did you at least read 1 post from the duzen where people confirmed they've applied the update (SIM contact), which changed the radio and confirmed that they also have the SMS-stuck problem?
What do you really need for trying to be helpful? 700 something posts confirming the issue and update-applied?
Anyway... leaving sarcasm apart, did anyone see any enhacements with the new radio? Anything better, anything repaired?
Or did you all apply it just because it was a new radio?
I wasn't actually being sarcastic, u just read it that way.
after i installed it , i could not find my file with contact photo's in it ( still can't )
As far as the radio update is concerned:
After the update reception is way better for me. Usually at home I had bad connection (1 to 2 bars GSM/EDGE), even some dropped calls occasionally and bad talking quality over all. But after the update I have almost full bars with GSM all the time with perfectly clear (as far as the phone can handle) talking quality. I even believe the lag to be less now. And for the first time my HD2 even can get a 3G/HSDPA signal where I live.
Makes one wonder why they didn't do it this way from the beginning. But that's a question that applies pretty often....
I have also found the reception to be a lot better, at home my signal was also very poor and the occasional SMS wouldn't send, kept having to use Resend until it went, since the radio update I have had no problems with sending SMS at all.
reception of 3g slightly increased here after this radio update. gsm like normal (full).
Ok, great... So better reception! This is good to know!
One golden star for HTC for this one!
However, I do wonder whether you had a SIM contacts problem or some kind...?
Up until yesterday ive always drawn 3-4 bars at the least inside of my house. All of a sudden out of nowhere I cant get any bars. Its like theyll pop on and then just disappear really quick. Its made my data painfully slow and I cant figure out what the issue is. I've reflashed the radio and that didnt help. Made sure the network was set to CDMA... that didnt help. Im a little clueless here. And periodically itll pull up two or three bars and then almost instantly the service will die out altogether and an X will pop up where the bars normally are....then the process starts all over. WTF? Is this a network issue or is it my phone? I hadnt made any changes before I started experiencing the problems.
Odd thing is im at work right now and im getting stable bars just fine.
So 66 views and no comments... i guess im the only one to ever have this issue then.
Sprint has been having network issues for a few weeks now in different markets and I'm sure you're being affected by it. Just give it a little bit and if it is still there in a week or two contact customer service. Hell, maybe even try now to see if they're actually having issues in your area so at least you'll know.
I love how people come here and post that they are having signal issues and data issues and they haven't called Sprint to see if there is an outage or issues in their area. The first thing I would do it restart my phone and call Sprint. Not flash a radio, try a different ROM...blah blah blah.
Or... maybe it didnt occur to you that calling to see if there were network issues was the first thing I did. You think id actually go through the trouble of doing all that over again without calling first? I guess I should've said that but c'mon lol...
tgruendler has a valid point. we can't assume anything. we get enough "noobs" here that unless you tell us what you've done, we assume you jumped straight to XDA without doing your due diligence. Perhaps those 66 views all thought the same, "this guy hasn't even contacted sprint. pass!" now that we've ruled sprints network out, now we can do something constructive.
what radio version are you running?
I mean I hear you and all but look at my join date lol... im far from a noob I just dont post much. The really odd thing is I switched back to an older radio and the problem went away. I flashed the newer radio and it came back so im seriously wondering just wtf...
Im using the 1.34 radio and the problem is gone. Im just curious as to why the newer radio frizzed out on me all of a sudden since i've been using that one for like a month. I dunno but it seems like the issue is fixed for now.
i noticed this same exact issue when I installed fresh ROM. I know I installed the new radio back then as well. see my post:

Sup all. This is only my second post. I spend most of my time reading. I learned awhile ago that almost every question has already been answered if you just take the time to search. My problem started a couple days ago. I was really happy because I found a great sense Rom that was very quick and stable. I was actually content for the first time in awhile. I was running kings speedy ported by misfit. My 4g here in Chicago was a little sketchy. I decided to try to update prl and profile. Since then I have been unable to receive texts until I place a call. The second I connect to my call the text come in. I had this problem awhile ago with my hero and eclair. I found out that changing my mobile mode from automatic to hybrid or something was the cause. I don't see this option anymore in froyo or ginger. I have since flashed a stock rooted Rom 3.70. I upgraded my prl from 1.77 to 1.90 upon reading that this was a possible fix. I updated prl and profile again. Nothing has worked. I even ran without my SD card with no luck. I would like to avoid unrooting and taking it to Sprint. Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

Hmmm that's odd, I'm guessing you tested another phone to make sure it's not a network problem? Maybe check ##3282 under EVDO Preferred Mode I keep mine set on automatic which is default. You need your MSL code to get in there, call sprint and get it or download msl reader from the market if your rooted. Not sure if that would even be related but you might as well check.
Thanks for the response sim. The network is fine and my evdo mode is set to automatic. I'm about ready to call sprint but I know they are going to tell me to reset and update my prl and profile which has already been done. Oh and pull the battery. I'm pretty sure they think these steps even cure cancer, which it might but doesn't help me get text. Thanks again
Maybe check the settings in your messaging app. Should have 'Automatically retrieve from network's (something to the like) checked.
Nothing you can do. Its sprints network failing. I have done everything possible to try and resolve it. They even sent a new phone. Rooted, unrooted, doesn't matter.
Thanks guys. I actually found an old backup i had and restored it. Everything worked with that Rom. I flashed Kings again and that seems to be working now also. Maybe it was a network thing. I'm not really sure what caused it. I guess my phone had a blonde moment. I feel you aimbdd. When I had my Hero I had this problem. Called Sprint and they had me do the usual reset and update. After that didn't work they decided to send me a new phone even though I didn't have insurance. I ended up fixing the problem myself before I got the new phone but never told them because I was getting a new one. I asked if they had a lot of calls about this. They said they never heard of it even though when I did a search later it was all over the web. Tech support from Sprint leaves a lot to be desired. Have you tried a few different Roms aimbdd? Wish I could tell you specifically what fixed it for me.
Then again I see you have 1400+ posts and have probably forgotten more than I know. Lol. My bad dude.
So for a while now I have not been able to update my PRL or Profile. It hasn't bothered me because for the most part the phone has worked fine until recently. A friend texted me and said he was going to call me. He text back a few minutes later and ask why I didnt answer. Phone was next to me the whole time and it didnt ring or so any kind of notification that he had tried to call. Took him 3 calls before my phone rang and he got through.
I have applied for a few jobs within the past few weeks and have heard nothing from anyone which I am surprised because I was referred to one company by and friend who put in a good word for me and said that his supervisors were really impressed with my resume. So now I feel like this issue could possibly be costing me job opportunities and I want to get it figured out.
The errors are 6602 and 407. I've tried to do it over 4G and put my phone just in CDMA mode for 3G only and get the 407 code for 3G and the 6602 over 4G.
I am running Stock rooted/odexed MK2 and I just did a clean flash of the rom again clearing data/cache and dalvik seeing if that would help which it didn't. I have reflashed the modem seperately also with no help.
I have seen many threads of others having this issue but no answers on a fix. Has anyone experienced this and actually done something that has resolved the issue?
If you feel it may be costing you a job, why not flash a nand of a stock rom, assuming you have one

I did, I flashed back to MF9 using this http://www.rwilco12.com/Files/Devic...H-L720)/Stock ROMs/MF9/Full Restore/Unrooted/
Which should be a stock factory restore, still would not update profile or prl. From there I updated to NG2 with Samsung Kies and I am still not able to update either.

What kernel do you use?
(I fixed this issue I my phone, but SERIOUSLY, what seemed to fix it MADE NO SENSE, so I'm not going to to relate it again, you can look up my posts if you want, but I wouldn't waste your time. I'm more interested in what kernel you are using... if it isn't KT-SGS4, then it doesn't matter.)
Other than that, have you tried the ##72786# dialer code, which is supposed to reset that stuff (didn't fix it for me personally)? You may have to reactivate your phone though (I did), which isn't that much of an issue...

For kernel version it shows 3.4.0-2162929 which I'm guessing is the stock NG2. I haven't flashed anything else since updating through Kies to NG2.
I've done the 72786 dial code a handful of times and it still didn't help. The only thing that solved was a issue I had after I first updatd to NG2 I had no working 4G. Phone would only connect to 3G and that was when it was in CDMA only mode. Aside from that it hasn't helped with the PRL/Profile update issue I'm having.

Yeah, that does sound like a stock kernel to me. Have you tried updating it through the Sprint Zone app? In Settings, More Networks, Mobile Networks, Network Mode, if it is not set to Automatic, you can try setting it to that and see if it lets you update after reboot, I have heard that can help but did not fix it for me (I have it set to LTE/CDMA). Have you seen this thread: Galaxy S4/Note 3/Mega - Update Profile/PRL/HFA Fix for Sprint/Boost/Virgin Mobile/etc? It is complex (don't IGNORE steps 5, 6, 7 and 8, which most people in the thread seem to...). I have not personally used this method, I was planning to before my issue resolved itself, but I didn't have a donor GS4 either (damn it, I JUST remembered that I DO, I f*ed up the USB port on my first one and completely forgot about that! BLOW MY MIND! But anyways...).

Yeah, I honestly don't really understand what that thread means when it talks about flashing to legacy accounts. I believe I have a SERO account (I don't know, my wife pays the bill... :silly: ) and the updates worked fine until I think messing with the APNs to try to fix my inability to send MMS messages messed things up. I never flashed any legacy accounts or anything.
So... at this point, even though IT MAKES NO SENSE, I will tell you what SEEMED to fix the issue for me. I STRESS, this MAKES NO SENSE TO ME, but after months of being unable to update my PRL/PROFILE, after doing the following, I was suddenly able to update them. It is likely an EXTREME coincidence, but for the hell of it I will now tell you.
Using the Pro version of Solid Explorer, I copied the Carrier folder from the root of my phone to my external SD card. THAT IS IT. YES... THAT IS IT. NOTHING MORE. I did NOT copy it back, I did not change anything. HOW this could possibly have cured the problem would seem to make very little sense, I can only conjecture that Solid Explorer, in the act of copying the folder to my external SD card, somehow 'refreshed' something in the carrier folder in the root of my phone... and I am grasping at straws here. I think you can probably understand WHY I did not want to reveal that this is what SEEMED to cure my issue, because it is so unlikely, and more likely an extreme coincidence and something else happened that I am not aware of, but that is the only thing I know of that I did related between when it was not working to when it was. So now you know at least (and as I have told a few others, there is no point in not trying, other than the crushing disappointment of it almost certainly not working)...
I should add as well however, now that it occurs to me, that I use the KT-SGS4 KitKat 4.4 TouchWiz kernel, and had for a long time suffered from a loss of mobile connection and GPS. requiring a reboot to get them back (within a similar time period to my PRL/PROFILE issues). I seem to have fixed the mobile connection/GPS loss by choosing the 'correct' governor to use with that kernel for my ROM, and it is not IMPOSSIBLE that THIS occurred at the time I was able to update my PRL/PROFILE, but I do not remember exactly, and I'm PRETTY CERTAIN I still had the issue with the mobile connection/GPS loss after updating my PRL/PROFILE, so I think that likely rules out KT-SGS4 as a culprit in this issue. (But then, I was forgetting that we already established that you were on a stock kernel...)

Yeah that copying the carrier folder don't seem like it would do anything but maybe I'll give it a try. Whats the best way to root right now? I just want to make sure it will let me unroot the phone if it dont work and no trip knox incase I have to bring this in.
Do you know what bootloader you are on? You said you were on Sys MK2, then went back to MF9 and now are on NG2. When you went to NG2, unless you took very specific steps to keep the MF9 bootloader, you would be on the NG2 bootloader now, which includes Knox, and you can no longer go back beyond NAE I think. If you don't know what bootloader you have, get DeviceInfo https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jphilli85.deviceinfo from the Play Store and under the Software heading, see what it shows for the last 3 digits for Bootloader. This makes a difference on the best root method.

I'm not an EXPERT on this subject, but if you are on NG2 stock unrooted right now, I believe you can use: CF-Auto-Root to root it. Or, here is a stock rooted version of the NG2 ROM:
[ROM][NG2] Stock Rooted NG2 (which mentions that it has Knox removed).
As far as tripping stuff, I'm somewhat unsure about that to be honest. I have always used Triangle Away on my phone, but it has a warning now not to use it with a custom kernel (which I use). My counter is at 3, but I am out of warranty anyway.
I spent a few hours on chat with Sprint. They couldn't figure it out so I'm bringing it in tomorrow. Guessing I'll get a new phone. The people at the Sprint store seem rather limited in their knowledge, at least they were last time I was there.

I guess if there are no signs that it has been rooted, that's probably a good way to go. You apparently had a phone pre-Knox and now I think you will get one with a Knox system, but it doesn't matter in your case since went beyond the point of no return already with the bootloader... I don't know if you have the new Spark model (tri-band), I don't know if the still make the old plain one like I have anymore...

I got the phone I have now about a month after the GS4 came out so its non sparks. I stayed on MK2 for so long because I couldn't find a newer rom that looked to be stable and not have to jump through a bunch of hoops to install it. The Odin screen shows everything being zero and offical software so I should be good. I am going to sign out of all of my accounts before I bring it in being I have a lot of apps bought through the store that only work on rooted phones. I hope I can get a tri band to replace it. My friend has a triband GS4 and it gets much better data speeds than mine.
Yeah, I mentioned elsewhere here before that I actually didn't know of the existence of the "Sparks" version of the G4. I screwed up the USB port on my G4 before upgrade time, so I had to buy another G4 on Amazon. Upgrade time has come up, so I was just looking and saw my phone listed as "Non-Sprint Sparks", which I thought meant that they called it the "Sparks" model because I hadn't bought it from Sprint... took me a while to figure out what that actually meant... :laugh:
Sprint online nor the store could fix it so I got a new one.
No rooting but error 407
As titled, I've not rooted the phone. I'm getting error code 407 on attempts to update PRL and Update profile. Download updates manually does nothing. Note I'm on a Samsung Note 4, Sprint. Had updated to Marshmallow 6.0.1 late March but then above actions persist since then. I'm using Wi-Fi only, Sprint service disconnected as I couldn't pay bill when I lost job during a disabling illness.
I haven't been able to update prl profile or firmware for over 8 months. I am not rooted never have been I have called customer service over and over replaced SIM card did the ## stuff nothing has helped. The phone works although service isn't as good as it could be and says there is a prl update available but I always get connection error 6 on all 3. I also have serious battery draining issues as far as my data I do get a strong 4g lte connection just service is low and sometimes drops when I am close to a sprint tower every other phone gets full bars really on any network especially sprint. I hope someone can help I like my sph-720 other that that and honestly I can't afford to keep up with the Joneses. Hopefully this is enough info please help
