Message times getting mixed up

Over the last couple of days my messages have been acting weird.
I'll send a message, and then when someone replies it will show that I received their message before I sent mine.
Has anyone else had this happen?
I'm using a stock dhd with gingerbread

I think there may be a problem with the HTC time servers. My phone is currently 12 mins ahead of the rest of the world!!
I have seen posts on the vodafone forum concerning time errors.

Okay, thanks for the info.
Also my weather hasn't been updating for the last 2 days , so i'm guessing that's related to their servers aswell.
i had this i fixed by disabling auto time update then set manually then switched back to auto then set manually again before finally selecting auto (rebooting phone after each change)
this fixed it for me, might not for you, yours might only need changing once but worth a try

[Q] I dropped my x10 and all messages are now gone - help

I remember dropping my phone last night when jumping onto the bed, now when I woke up n checked my mobile I found it turned off . . . . When I switched it on all my text messages and contacts were gone. . . Now how can I recover them....????
Thanks
Did you do a backup by any chance? Otherwise maybe lost forever

I hadn't backed up my messages and its actually the messages that I need... :-S
Unfortunately, they can't be recovered unless if you have made backups of them.
But this is weird. I have dropped my phone a lot of times but nothing like this has ever happened before. Are you sure you didn't do anything before/after you dropped it?
P.s. Mods, if you're reading this, please kindly move this thread to the Q&A section, thank you.

HELP! Samsung Smart Switch Failing to Migrate Data

Hey Guys,
So i picked up the Australian variant of the SG4 and haven't even had the pleasure of testing it out and i am already having issues.
I just backed up my iPhone 4s, and ran Smart Switch. Took forever to get to the point of selecting what i wanted migrated and then it said it was done on the computer end. On the phone end it uploaded my Calender and some SMS messages from 2010 and one recent one, But stalled for an hour on 2%, memos - 4% and Contacts - 11% and disappeared.
I factory reset it because I assumed I had screwed up.... but its done exactly the same thing... I started an hour ago and it is stuck on those exact same percentages....
Any one know what's going on???
I used an app called 'Bump'. Try that. Let me know how it goes!

So it comes up with wssyncmlnps has stopped every time I restarted the device.
Each time it would add things. It got to 99% of uploading the messages and failed again. So nod I'm stuck with messages from 2010 to may 2012 and nothing after. It now gets stuck at 69% of that final 1%.
Since I never saw the issue answered, and a search for a different issue brought me here, I'll post a a quick responce to SmartSwitch. You need to delete your old Apple backup, then in iTunes uncheck encrypted backup, then do a complete fresh backup. Smartswitch will then complete without issues.
Seems it can't deal with encryted backups, and even if you uncheck and backup again, it will fail, you must delete all old backups for that particular device first.
Hope this helps.

Didnt do anything for me.
I deleted my old iphone backup. Re backed up. I use smartswitch and follow the instructions and the items are there but greyed out and I can choose them.
You have 3 years worth of text messages! Lol
No wonder it's getting stuck, that's a lot of messages dude!

[Q] Issue Days of the week show up as numbers

Days of the week show up as numbers. Meaning 1 for Sunday 2 for Tuesday etc.. Then the month displays as 1 for January 2 for Feb. Etc.... Its stock tried clearing data on clock app. Just wanting to avoid a factory reset. Any ideas on how to fix this? I've tried changing the date format in setting. Found one other person with the same issue. http://www.nexus7nexus10.com/forum/...k-show-up-numbers-lock-screen-clock-date.html
Any help would be appreciated.

message fails to send

i've noticed that i sometimes get message failed to send message. this happens maybe 5 times a day i've had it far worse maybe 10 times in one day. I never had this problem on my galaxy s4 so i'm wondering if this is a SIM card problem? i am using the sim that came pre-installed too. I haven't moved out of the area im still using my phone in the same places as i usually do commuting to school and work. Has anyone had a problem with their message not sending? it's annoying
I have seen this with a number of our phones on WiFi over the years. Mostly with attachments, but not always. Normally if I turn off WiFi it will send. I have no idea what causes this bit we are a 6 phone house , 2 carriers, all different phone's. The only one that I have never seen do it us my wife's HTC. My old Nexus did it a lot. This phone, my g2 has done it a couple times with mms.

Same issue here. With regular texts. Several times a day. I end up restarting the phone and then it sends. Extremely annoying and it's only happening on this phone. Thought it might be a defective phone, but seeing you have the issue as well... maybe it's software related?

In my experience, it seems like it happens most often when I get a message as I'm sending one.
