Has anybody had issues with their epic showing the wrong time or having the wrong time stamp on texts? If so, is there a way to fix this?

Typically a network error. Update Profile and PRL.

I find whenever that happens, it happens to the lady's phone too. I usually chalk it up to maintenance on a tower near my house. It usually lasts for a day or two.

If it's consistent, it can be fixed, if it's not a forever issue, then it'll go away.
In my case:
My # starts with 214, (Dallas,TX) area code. But I live in Oregon, and roaming 24/7 with 1x.
SO
My timestamps have *always* been wrong. lol
I used the app, SMS time fix. I just selected the option to fix my timestamp according to my phone's time (which is correctly sync'd to Pacific-Time Zone) and tada! my problem's solved.
Permanently
Also, it's not a resource hog either, like 2.7mb of ram?
The gingerbread update seems to have actually fixed the "wrong timestamp while roaming" issue, so no need for that app any more.
I've been roaming nonstop for about a week now and all timestamps have been spot on.

If you take a look at my Carrier, it isn't sprint, so it may be fixed for Native Sprint users, but not my carrier.

Hi
I got the sgs gt I9000
A few frinds told me that I sent them smses more than once, after we finished owr chat.
For ex: I smsed my friend yesterday at 00:00 4 smses. The device turned off at 07:00 this morning, and sent them again to her wheb I turned it on.
I didn't find any connection between the time I sent the sms to the time it was turned off.
It's like the sms is still in the outbox, after it is already sent, and when I turn the device off/on it sends it again.
Anyone knows about this kind of a problem?
Its round 4 smses a day, it's round 120 a month, in $ it's an exra 20$ to the monthly bill...

It might be the background MOSAD app playing up ;-D
If you use another app for sms try uninstalling it and check again...
Also check the last apps you installed before the problem appeared

Hi
I'm using the original app for sms, I like it a lot.
I uses Handcent, but thought it was the cause, so I uninatalled it.
I even uninstalled an app I used for popup sms.
All was b4 I wrote the post.
What I think ia left to do is reflash, and install app by app, to see what causes it. But it's a very long procedure.

lolz. touche. also from the title the device definitely sounds possessed, but now I've gone off topic.
I change the batteries in my device once a day so I don't over-cycle/over-stress them, it happens to give the dual purpose of a reboot which is good for the phone. Turning the phone off has its places.
looks like the same poltergeist as mine, infact random clicks often sends sms or gtalks just a matter of luck
Hey guys, can't find the answer anywhere but, whenever I connect to a cell network 3g/4g or lose the connection whatever I am doing on the phone sound wise is interrupted by an alert. Any idea how to turn this off?
You're right, there doesn't seem to be a setting for that - unfortunately

I agree on this one. I tried browsing system files in hopes of locating and replacing the file but didn't have any luck. Pretty embarrassing when I'm at work and my pocket starts twinkling repeatedly as my phone tries reconnecting to network.

No matter how much or how I calibrate my battery, it almost always drops to 97% after unplugging. Some times it will stay at 100 and stay at 100 for about an hour. Also, you'll be at say 50% and reboot the phone and be at 12% for 5 hours.

I don't mind attempting to help.
What ROM are you using?
Capacity of the battery you're using?
Which Modem are you on?
Do you oc/uv?
Which kernel are you using?
Install spare parts from the market.
Run your phone for 30min-1 hour.
Check the battery usage.
Post your stats back here if you are unable to solve.
Useful tips: Get titanium Backup pro or some other app freezing application from the market.
Open the app up. And freeze the following processes.

biggest frustration is the visual voicemail. i see a missed call, i see i have voicemail, but when i click "play" on the voicemail it says it can't play the voicemail.
only way to fix it is to power off phone, power on, then the voicemail will play. same problem i had on my old samsung flip phone 3 years ago. promised myself i would never again own a samsung phone but the Epic was the best phone available at the time. sigh.

That fix seems beyond annoying lol. I can understand the frustration behind that although there isn't that much voicemail in the world to be frustarted over unless you almost never answer your phone calls.

while at work (roughly 10 hours a day with commute) i rarely answer my personal phone. unfortunately that's when many people (or services like the comcast setup crew, etc.) call.
i end up rebooting my phone, just for voicemail, at least 4 times a week. i don't know if it's something i did (just running stock Froyo EB13 - rooted with EXT4 file system), an app i installed, etc., but it's odd to me that it happened on my old Samsung flip phone on Verizon and now on my Samsung Epic on Sprint.
ready for the rumoured Gingerbread update to officially drop (actually ready for source to come out so i can finally switch off of the stock firmware - for some reason i've been holding out flashing a custom ROM until gingerbread. probably silly of me, but that's what i've been telling myself).

i've never ever had that problem (knock on wood). Maybe a bad flash or something. try updating your voicemail app and make sure you have 3g when your checking your voicemail.
For the battery issue, nubecoder wrote something that can be implemented into kernels for a fuller more complete charge. I don't know which kernels incorporate this.. i'm currently on bakedsnack and it does have it. battery is superb.
When you have to completely close apps (market) just to get data to connect. Its as if its false 3g -_-

I'm running srf 1.1.1 w/ twilight zone 1.1.1. I don't run over 1ghz, and am under volted. Ec05 modem. I don't believe this to be a kernel or rom issue, its done this almost from the start of having this phone. I'm not sure what info you're looking for in spare parts specifically.

After FroYo update (never happened on Eclair) every time I need to turn WiFi on is becoming a hustle and audio support disappears (Not playing any music mp3 or streaming and notifications) after sometime. both problems seems to be getting a "fix" after unmount/mount a SD card trick. Extremely annoying.
Here's the thing.
My NS4G when it's connected to 4G is great.
However, when it goes idle (which is most of the time if I'm not using it), I'm not connected to the internet at all. No puch notifications. No Gtalk messages. No Facebook updates. Nothing.
And it only wakes up when I wake it up.
this all sorts of defeats the object of having a contantly on connection, and I don't get the benefit of 4G, unless it's literally only to be used when I'm surfing the web ? Is that all it's good for on this phone, and the reaosn I'm paying another 10 bucks ?
Is there any way to increase the tine it takes to go idle ?
Hmmm... it should just be idle when no data is needed. We had another report from another user of the same problem. Can you send email to yourself and wait 10 min to make sure it doesn't work?

I've been using that prl for 3g roaming while at work for the past couple of weeks. Today though I lost my data connection. Still can make calls and text. Tried reflashing prl, rebooting, everything. I use roam control, and when I switch to home I have normal sprint service with 3g data. When I switch back to roam it gives only voice and text and says sprint can't login?
Anyone else having issues?
