Hello everyone,
I wanted to introduce myself first, I'm new around here.
I have a problem is that every time I get an SMS I get an hour more. I would like to know the configuration that you have with the theme of time for this not to happen, I'm from Spain Vodafone.

Hey guys,
I just recently bought my TD2 just over the weekend...and when receiving text msgs from my friends, there's this 4 hour difference in the time stamp. For example, I'll send a text msg at 10pm, and when I receive a text msg five minutes later, the time stamp will be 6:05pm.
Would anyone know what the issue would be? Cause I'm really stumped by this. I even sent text msgs to myself from my phone carrier's website and it's the same thing, the time stamp is 4 hours behind what it actually is..
Any suggestions or ideas is greatly appreciated. =)
I'm fairly sure the time stamp for incoming text messages is dependent on the time your service provider says it was sent, not the time your phone actually receives it. So if your network provider is based in a city with a different time zone your incoming text messages will be time stamped at the time the message was sent in said time zone, not your own.
I'm not sure if there are any settings to change this as I haven't really looked in to it a great deal. It's just kind of annoying and can make conversation threads kind of pointless.
my network provider is based in the same city as me, so there shouldn't be any discrepancy in terms of time zone.
I'm starting to think it's a WM6.1 bug or something like that. I've tried hard resetting it but it doesn't work. I've also tried putting in a different sim card from a different network provider and the issue is still there.
so..im stumped even more...
you could send a notification to HTC. I've been reading these forums for some time now and I haven't encountered anyone with the same problem. Or, then again, I might be mistaken ...
4 hours does seem a bit extreme. Do you have any friends on the same network as you? Can you check the time stamp on a message that you've sent to their phone to see if it shows the correct time?
I only say it's network dependent because I know that when my country has daylight savings time the timestamps for all of my messages get messed up, but when daylight savings time is over it's fine.
It depends on the service provider.
Some service provider use the time the msg is pushed to your phone, while others use the time when the message is sent. So, if your sender is in a different time zone, there may be a time difference.
I've checked with friends that are on the same service provider. The text msgs i send them have the correct time.
I even send myself a text msg to see and it'll be the same thing again. sending it to myself is just as mind boggling cause i receive my own msg right away, and time stamp is 4 hours behind still. -_-;;;
Did u set any "Visiting Time"? I never encountered this since I bought my TD2 last month. Guess it could be related to service provider?

No, I believe you can only set either Home or Visiting Time...
I flashed my phone with cooked roms hoping that bring it to WM6.5 would fixed the issue, but it hasn't worked...
Is your problem solved yet? I've the same problem and I've done everything nothing works, I guess i've to live with it. Mine shows 40 mins difference which is very annoying.
no luck at all.
I just played around with the time zone settings. i just put the time zone setting to est-1 since it's est -5 where i am. and then i just brought the time back 4 hours and it matched...but aside from that..nope..nothing.
I've seen some threads about the text messages coming in at the wrong time but at XX hours behind, being like a time zone thing or something, but I have it where the texts come in 2 - 3 minutes behind when they should do.
I love the conversational text messaging, but this is really bugging me cos it's throwing the order off massively!
I've done hard resets and soft resets but it just still doesn't have the right time. HELP PLEASE!!!!
same here ...

Well now when I try sending texts to myself, they just don't come through. Says they're sent but they're not, and just not getting them through. I'm on O2 UK
Damn this phone sucks!! I only got it on Wednesday too.
Me too, I'm on O2, if i send one to myself i get it more or less straight away but its a hour in front. My clock is set right and it says its sent at the correct time? Is anyone else who is on O2 receiving texts at the 'correct' time?
Weird, just sent myself one and its back to the correct time!

Urgh, I reckon I'm gonna do an exchange in the 28 day period when we get them back in stock and see if that sorts all, or at least most, the problems out, just having a new phone from new batch.
i had this problem.... tooo
it really terrbile as i wont able to know which is my sms with his reply
Ive got this too, i'm on O2 UK and messages i receive are all 2-3 minutes too early and so put the text conversation out of sync.
This has happened a couple of times to me, but usually leaving the SMS app and then going back in fixes it.
Either that or the person who you're texting has the time wrong on their phone.
ya they maybe set wrong timing.. but is petty hard to find ppl who had the time timing as ur hahah
so the sms should be basic on our clock
i used to have screwed up SMS conversations too. you guys can try installing the SMS fix. it is working for me for now.
SMS fix from where??
from HTC.com
i installed but it doesnt not fix for me
Any chance there's a daylight savings time mix up?
no... my time was setting correctly..
there is only one clock setting how can it mix up??
somemore is from same zone..
no fix for this?
I have had this problem too.
Try setting your clock right...
You can do something like: when receiving a message check its time and change yours to match that one...
It should solve the problem.
i just got the tmo us hd2 and it seems only after midnight some peoples texts start coming in a day previously. i just had 3 conversations and one person came at the right time, and the other 2 came as if they were 24 hours behind
I've had the same problem recently, I just assumed it was an O2UK problem, I had it very occasionally with my Diamond.
It's fine at the moment, so I just put it down to peak text time. Lol.
*edit* HA! I just got a text as a was writing this post, it's now 10:15am and the text is time stamped 08:53am, I should have touched wood!

Sorry but htis has nothing to do with the phone.
Im on O2 germany and everything works fine.
Maybe your setup was wrong or your provider has an issue.
SMS faults are mainly providerissues.
I dont know which rom you are using but i dont have any issue with the updated stock rom.
I have an HD Mini, suffering from the common time-stamp error.
Have attempted past HTC model fixes including hard resets, forcing time zone changes and the Reg Key "TrustTimeZoneField=0".
Falsifying the time zone will correct the SMS time stamps, but then throws out received mail time stamps.
I have tried others' sim cards on various carriers, AT&T, T-Mobile, Rogers with no change.
HTC claims it is a carrier, though my old s710 is always correct.
Any ideas? Thanks
hey...
i have the same problem as you, and i do believe it may be the carrier, as i had a problem with my sony ericsson before i got the htc mini....
my text messages will say for example, 2:00pm as the timestamp, but the message was received at 9:00pm
Afarid that I've been on 3 carriers and used locals' sim cards. Same issue. HTC denies it.
same here guys, hope some1 could shed some light on the matter...
Its not a carrier problem for sure.
it has something to do with the time zones.
my incoming txt msg's are recorded 1 hour ahead of time...dont know why..
i played around with regional settings and time zones but still nothing
hi all, after the official rom upgrade i have a problem with sms.. when i reply to an sms, my reply is showed before the received message.. anyone has the same problem?
Did you installed the new update from HTC for SMS stability ?
Moved to general...
Ok I have an HTC Rhodium having similar problem, you guys are only hours off, mine is off by years, my SMS shows todays date as 7/7/16, Is there ANY kind of fix for this? I'm still searching but wanted to post and subscribe while i was here.
ok never mind I was at htc the other day and apparently i was in the wrong spot. i'll have to download it tonite when i get home seeing as it's not a cab, dangit!
Hi all,
I have Windows Mobile 6.5, CE OS 5.2.21869 (hope that is enough info!)
I am on T-Mobile and sync with Exchange 2007. I am in the UK. I have signed up for the sharing of Orange network. Time zone set to UK.
I have not used my phone for a while and digged it out (only used for going to site for work) just after the time has moved back one hour. Since then my phone is changing the time to 1 hour forward the last few days. I put it back to normal and it changes itself a few minutes later. I thought this may be a sync thing so I set sync to manual but it still does the change of time. When I got off the train this morning in London it had set itself 5 hours forward! First time it has done that.
I cannot find the option to disable time zones as the T-Mobile website suggests. I have a sort of official rom but due to doing this nearly a year ago, cannot remember which one precisely. I have never had this issue before.
Another thread already opened for this problem.
a bit more help would be good like a link? I used the search first and found thousands of items which were not any help.
I worked it out myself. When I go to Orange for a signal my phone classes me as roaming and my visiting time zone was a few hours out. I changed my visiting to the same as home time zone and all is ok!!
Good morning everyone !
Since about a week, every time i get out of the network (i'm living in a small village) my Nexus 4 keeps vibrating every 10-15 mins.
I already search in the settings but i didn't find anything that shut this off.
I'm using the PACman rom and if anyone got the same problem and solved it, I would like to know the solution
Thanks a lot !
