Hey guys, I noticed my Atrix is posting the good time for my outgoing SMS but my incoming SMS posts a 4 hour difference... I don't understand, I tried rebooting the phone, clearing the cache, but nothing worked... I still get the messages at the right time, but the posted time (only for received messages) is 4 hours late (for example, it's 4PM and I receive a live message, knowing it's been sent live, but the UI posts that I received the message at 12...).
Have any of you been having this problem too? Anything I can do to fix this?

Let me guess...you're on Rogers' network?
This is a known network issue related to their network system and has NOTHING to do with your phone. I've seen this issue with all Android phones on their network.
To fix this minor issue, you need to download a tiny app from the Market that will adjust the timestamp for your timezone. It's called "SMS Time Fix" by Matthew Precious(?) and it works great. It doesn't use any CPU cycles (it does, but it's so minimal you can't even see it) or resources on your phone. I've been using it since Aug 2010 and no issues.

Hello to everyone!
I've been recently having some troubles with my evo 4g. I'm running fresh 3.5.0.1 and just updated my radios to 1.90_003 . Right before i upgraded (from fresh 3.4 or 3.3 not sure) I started to have problems with my text messages.
First i noticed that i got one from "the future" it was timestamped about 2 hours ahead of what time it was and i didn't recieve a notification for it. So i checked for some updates since it had been a while and upgraded everything i was suppose to (ota,radio,wimax,pri,etc). Now my messages seem to have the same problem if not more. I get alerted 5 or 10 minutes after i receive the message, while going through my conversations say i select a convo with my friend zack and convo from my friend kyle will come up, and i will have to go back and select it again.
So i'm wondering if this is a service provider problem or something with the apps for custom firmware i'm using. Could it be caused by an app like JuiceDefender?
The timestamp issue usually only happens when roaming, but can also be caused by network issues in general. My old flip phone, rumor, and instinct all had that issue from time to time.
The other issue with opening one text and getting someone else is an android issue, engadget reported on that today actually.

Yeah I have been having time stamp issues also. And when someone replies, it puts them all above my txts sent that day, so I gotta constantly scroll up to read txts.
Anyone got any idea's on fixing this?

^^That happens to me too^^ I thought my phone was just fcukin up. It does it when someone sends me a pic. Puts it at the top of the convo's for that day...
I got a "VERY" important text 20 mins late the other day too. 20 mins too late!!! Pissed me off!!!!
good to know that i'm not the only one experiencing this problem hopefully gets fixed soon. if i had to guess i think it's most likely a problem/conflict with sprint and android.
Hi guys.
An issue I noted was that my messages would appear above my friend's messages even though he messaged me first.
Does anyone else have this problem? A reboot seems to temporarily fix it, but I can't seem to pinpoint what exactly causes this. Thanks!
That is a problem that has existed for quite some time. It is something about gtalk displaying messages ordered by received time, but incomming messages use a different time than system time, or something like that. You can check that the messages are sorted by time, but incomming messages have wrong timestamps. It happened to my GFs phone once and the fix was checking (or unchecking) "automatic" in Settings>Date & Time settings. Very weird, I know...

PS: I don't have a Nexus10 yet, I'm waiting for mine, and never had this problem myself, but I know about this problem on many other phones as you can see in the link above.

Hi does anyone have issues with sending messages in whatsapp with the nexus 4?
One issue I have only experienced after getting the nexus 4 is quite often messages take a while to send.
I have attached a screenshot.
As you can see its 5:45pm, I have messages I sent at 5:43pm and 5:44pm, and still have not sent yet.
When I first noticed this issue I thought at first it was a issue with my data, but as you can see here I am still receiving messages so my data connection is obviously ok.
I didn't have this issue with the One X or the Galaxy S3, I am still using the same sim and provider. This is getting very frustrating.
I have also noticed a couple of times that I have closed whatsapp not noticing it hasn't sent and only to find a bit later after opening whatsapp again that the messages still haven't sent!
Try.... taking your sim out and in, upgrading to 4.2.2, test in wifi and 2g mode
Check your network...sometime it is the culprit.
I have no problem in China and HK but when I went to Indonesia last month it was behaving same as yours.
Initially I thought it's my phone. The data signal is full but message sent was slow and at time you received several messages at the same time.
I'm back in HK and experience none of this now
PS.
Network = 2G/3G....try to test it with reliable wifi
Used to happen a lot with 4.1.2 but since I flashed PA's rom, this issue has been solved, thankfully!
thanks for the replies, I've noticed it wasn't happening in wifi but I am still using the same sim as the one X and S3, so its not likely to be an issue with the provider.
I have updated to 4.2.2 and it is still happening.
This is starting to seem like an issue with whatsapp and the stock rom?
Have you tried cleaning the sim?
I am having this exact same issue.
I also seem to get s load of whatsapp messages through at once when the the phone has been sleeping for quite a while (even on WiFi)
Which provider are you with?
I'm currently on a orange (ee) contract

Nope, but I don;t see how this would have any issue, data and phone calls are all fine.

I am in Hong Kong and using PCCW.
I have just reinstalled whatsapp and reset my APNs and still having the same issue
I think this could have to do with what network you are on.
I know this isn't 100% the issues your having. But it looks related...

that's related to wifi, and while the messages don't sent I am able to receive messages,
Has anybody reported this bug to Google and WhatsApp? They should both be informed, because we can't know whose fault this is.
I am from HK and useing PCCW too , i am using QQ2013 , and it also show cannot send message :silly:
I am on PCCW in Hk Too, I do face this issue sometimes. It takes a while to send a wtsapp msg. Besides wtsapp. There are also some issue in using mobile network. Sometimes when I want to use the network, The H logo shows full reception. but without the "loading arrow" besides it, So that the pages doesn't load. I have to solve it by turning off the data and reopen, Then, The "loading arrow" appears and the network back to normal.
That's annoying
Uh oh, I'm seeing a pattern here. I'm in HK on CMHK.
Though WhatsApp message-sending is the big issue for me, it seems like there's some lag/timeout when browsing the web as well.
Experiencing t same issue on watsapp as well as the browser. It seems t ping is really slow. At times need to reload the page. Also it is not specific to browser. It happens with different apps. T network all t time is full. However not yet noticed anything like tat on wifi.
Any clue to fix t issue. Its really annoying.
Thanks

I have the same problem on Telenor in Sweden.
I have noticed that, when I have a message waiting to be sent. If I start the web browser and reload a page and return to Whatsapp it has been sent. I can reproduce this problem 100%.
So the problem doesn't seem to be network related. I would imagine we get a bug fixed Whatsapp soon.

I suspect there's an OS problem. WhatsApp may be able to work around the issue (tricking the OS into getting its act together and sending the packets that need to go out), but it's Google that needs to release a fix.
I just created a bug report here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=52260&thanks=52260&ts=1362026130
Star it if you want to be notified of developments (and show Google that you care about the problem).
I added a comment to the bug report you made, but I'll post my experience here as well. I find that sometimes the phone doesn't switch from 3G to HSPA when it needs to. It happens to me in WhatsApp but also on other apps like Twitter or Facebook, where I send a message or refresh the feed, and it just stays stuck there. No data is transmitted, so it doesn't even switch from 3G to HSPA. Eventually it seems to "wake up" and realizes there's something requesting a connection and it goes through.
Some texts won't come through I also am getting repeat texts. Some voicemails either. I called Sprint to refresh on there end and all of a sudden everything comes through at once. Some of the messages were 4 days old. Wtf. My first reaction is to to be pissed of at Sprint cause I can't stand the network. So my question is should I contact essential?
I was literally about to post this same question. I think it has something to do with our preferred network type/enhanced lte mode/APNs or some variation of it. My only work around for now is using Google Voice, however MMS is still giving me issues.
Maybe it is a combination of essential AND sprint! Following this thread in hopes that we can figure out a fix.
Edit: I wonder if the issue will be resolved once we receive the update. I read that we can sideload it but I haven't got around to it yet. Have you updated yours?
It's Sprint. Used the have problems with my Nexus 5 but haven't had any issues with the essential. Just as a test, check your signal when you have the issues and see if you can get the sender to do the same thing. My mom, who has terrible signal at her house, will send me double texts sometimes. But if she is out and about, no issues

I originally hadn't had this problem. Just got an RMA replacement today and was having this problem on the new one. I updated the profile and the problem seemed to go away. But I've only received 2 factor authentication texts so far so not really comfortable saying it's fixed yet.
But if you want to try it:
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap About Phone
3. Tap OMADM Updates
4. Tap update profile.
Updating prl here would be worth doing too.
OP and others, still having issues? got this phone saturday and have been getting duplicate texts.... i can deal with that but not completely missing texts.

I am still having this issue of duplicate texts. My temp fix is using Google voice and turning off the messages notifications. However, I had to create a Tasker profile to notify me when I get mms.
I've done all the updates to no avail.
I am not experiencing any of the issues being mentioned on this thread. Had my phone almost a week now and no issues at all. Texts and calls, etc all work fine. No duplicates.
I'm hoping somebody has experienced this before and found a fix and can help me out...
All day I've been struggling to send SMS messages... I'm on 11.0.1.1, magisk rooted, with RICE installed. Everything was working great but today when i woke up, i was unable to send SMS messages...
I'm receiving them, but sometimes they are delayed and i get a few at a time with nothing coming in again for a short time after that, but i've made no changes to my phone in the last 2 days. I've rebooted a few times between then and now (twice yesterday, just because), so i cant really understand why i would just randomly be unable to send text messages or why they are received in bursts like this?
I've gone in and reset my "Wi-Fi, Mobile & Bluetooth" settings from within the reset options, and this appears to fix the issue, but only for a minute or so and suddenly they stop sending again... I thought maybe its the tower, so i used my daughters phone to text my wife and that worked perfectly fine. Immediately before and after, mine wouldnt send.
Any ideas, links, or guidance that might help me figure this out?
Since there's been some updates and no responses to my thread, i wanted to revisit this and see if i'm still the only one on earth with this issue.
The issue seemed to have completely gone away on its own, no idea why or how... But a couple weeks ago i decided to install the update to 11.0.2.2 on my IN11AA. Ever since, my phone will randomly stop receiving SMS messages completely. I can still send, just cant receive. The only way to fix this is to reboot.
Anyone else with this issue? Anyone find a reason for this? A fix perhaps?

Seeming this issue doesn't seem to be widespread, could be a carrier side issue?
It's a shame we don't have dual boot capabilities because you could have switched to stock and checked.
Also try a secondary SIM from maybe someone in your household and send using that SIM and see what happens.
I know there are delays after rebooting, I do a lot of magisk module work and every reboot try sending notifications using SMS or some other methods and I get around 3 mins no send or receive but not at the length you do.

I just had the issue again yesterday. Wife and I started texting eachother at about 8am, except, i didnt receive any of her messages until 5:30pm when she got home and told me she had been texting me. I rebooted 3 times, which once usually resolves the issue but not this time. I had to go into the settings and reset my WiFi/Mobile/Bluetooth settings, then it worked immediately.
Because of the solutions, i wouldnt think its a sim issue, but im going to test it anyway. I've factory reset a few times in the past and i still get the issue. I've had the issue while rooted and not rooted. Four of us have phones, 3 are Samsung and then there's mine, and mine's the only one with the issue.

What SMS app are you using? I wonder if you have enabled RCS messaging the new Google style messaging? Because maybe it uses WiFi to download some of the SMS, and if your carrier doesn't support it maybe you only receive it when you are on WiFi.
Try on WiFi then try just on mobile data and see if you notice.
I attached a photo check the top setting. Google might be persisting your setting (if you are using Google messages)
Also why don't you and your wife try a simnswap next time you happen and you are both at home, if your wife doesn't receive it then it's sim/network related.

I'm using Google Messages, and yes i do have RCS enabled. I dont believe thats the case though because the messages that are blocked are sometimes just an "ok" message. I'm almost always on WiFi though too.
The primary issue with sim swapping with my wife is that we would need to swap sims for up to 2 weeks since sometimes I have no issues for 2 weeks, then i get the issue once or twice a day for three days. The worst part (for me anyway) is that her screen is SHATTERED on her phone (she's using a Note10+) and its hard to see anything, so i've been trying to get her to get a new phone. I think we might be FINALLY upgrading her (after 5 months) to an S21 Ultra, so maybe we'll give that a shot there.
I'm actually wondering if it has something to do with messages for web. I've noticed that the issue only really happens after using that, but.. It doesnt always happen after using messages for web, so it might just be a coincidence.
I'm pretty sure its not Google Messages, or RCS, and fairly certain its not messages for web, because i used to use Signal only, and i still had the issue a few times.

When you say "ok" are you just sending short messages or the suggested replies by Google?
I had problems with auto reply in notifications for a while.
Tbh I just use telegram or signal becuase they don't require being connected to the device directly when using the web/desktop versions.
Yeah swapping for 2 weeks isn't great!
Interesting you had this issue with signal too, sounds like Google cloud messaging (needed for any app push notifications and messaging) is in a standby mode.
You got naptime or servicely installed? Shame no one else is seeing this issue might be easier to diagnose
