stock ROM.
i'm getting texts just fine but randomly it will decide to time stamp them 3 hours earlier, so if i have a bunch of texts i have to scroll through them all until i find the new one that it thinks was sent 3 hours ago. it is pretty annoying. anyone know how to fix this? soft reset didn't do anything.
it's often the networks fault when sms's are delay'd
i would try putting the sim in another phone for testing
same here
since yesterday ive been getting random texts with the timestamp 3 hrs earlier, and i also have to scroll thru to find it. my computer did something to the phone yesterday and basically deleted anything synced and then resynced. its been doing this ever since.
weird that we would get this same problem at the same time.
this is really annoying
Not to beat the horse but i've been having the same problem since this morning. Everything was fine all day and night yesterday. I've received about 8 texts or so since 8am EST this morning (it's now 2:20pm EST) and about 3 of the texts have had the problem. Pretty annoying. Assuming it's the network like someone previously suggested.
the person said the network was delivering them late. that has happened before too, but these are being delivered on time, but the time stamp is 3 hours before the text was sent. since 3 of us had the same problem starting yesterday or around then, it must have something to do with the network, even though the messages are being delivered on time, it is just the time stamp that is wrong.
weird.
yeah i thought it was something wrong with my particular phone but now since all three of us are having issues i feel "better".
hopefully t-mobile fixes this soon, its really annoying **crosses fingers**
Yeah, and the wierd thing is that it seems like it's only happening with specific contacts too. Looks like it's happening with only two people out of the 7 people that have texted me today.
yeah it's weird, but only 2 people have texted me today, and only one of them messed up, while both contacts messed up yesterday
this has also been happening to me, what phone service do you guys have, i have tmobile
I just thought my phone took a crap. but with the above posts I guess it was the network. mms are always late but this is a first for sms. tmobile needs serious improvement on their network issues
Maybe the Network Wizard will fix the problem? Just thought I'd throw that in there.
well my network settings are set the way tmobile set them, so i don't think it's anything we can fix on our end. it is them.
Im having the same problem since about yesturday, and my carrier is t-mobile,
so I think it has something to do with them.
Not to beat that already dead horse, but just to reiterate, I too have t-mobile and I have been receiving text exactly 3 hours late. It is very annoying and I am calling t-mobile ATM. Thanks for letting me know it isnt just me.
tell us what they say. last night it was nuts for me. i would get a text with the proper time stamp, and then one 3 hours earlier (but you know, it was actually received at the the present) and then one from the same person that would have an accurate time stamp

They told me that it was "only your issue and no one else in your area has complained about it." They offered to send me a new sim card but it seems like it must be a network issue and not a hardware one because we are all experiencing the same thing. Could it only be modded phones? I changed the rom on mine, been meaning to for a while. I cant say if it has happened again cause I havent gotten a message :-X
I live on the Northeats and was previously running Touch-IT 5.0.
you should have told them that there are reports on the internet of people having the same issues.
i'm in the southeast with the newest stock ROM. so it is definitely a network thing, not hardware or modded issues.
i'd call myself but i'm not the account holder and they make you give all these account numbers SSN and crap
well in addition to the time stamp being wrong now my sms are coming in 24 hrs late. I am afraid to ask whats next.
wow. mine are just 3 hour late timestamps. what is going on here?
I have also been getting delayed texts... sometimes like 10 minutes but can be up to like 9 hours late. I live in Seattle, WA
Has anyone had their phone randomly reboot? It's happened to me twice now (twice in 4 weeks). Both times the phone was in my coat pocket and I felt it vibrate (which surprised me since all vibration effects are off), and was even more surprised to see the MT4G splash screen (meaning it was rebooting). The phone is not rooted and is running the stock OTA ROM.

Are you sure? I was hoping it wasn't since it does not happen frequently, which I would think it would if it was a real problem. I'd assumed it was just a software glitch (both times it's happened I've been in a building with weak signal). I'd really like to know for sure before sending it in, because that will most likely mean getting a re-manufactured unit.
EDIT: after thinking about it, I realized it happened before when receiving a text. The incoming message indicator briefly appeared, but before I could read it, the phone rebooted. I then texted the person who I assumed texted me, and indeed they had just texted me. That has only happened once (this was several weeks ago).
Happens to me about twice a week as well. I just live with it.

Was just browsing around to see if anyone else had this problem as I did. First time was when I just got it. The second time (same week) it rebooted when I was getting ready to text someone back who just text me.
Phones getting replaced because a dead pixel. Hopefully that one has a good screen like this one and no problems.
It Could be my provider problem, but just wanted to make sure.
Is anyone having failed attempts at calling , where it continues to keep ending the call every time u press talk?
Yep. When that happens nothing works. Texts. Email. Everything. Reset fixes it.

Happened to me first time today, had phone since launch.
Flashed my first customer ROM yesterday (CM7) and thought it might be that. Only a reboot fixed it, not even switching to Airplane mode.
How often does it happen to you guys?

it started happening to me recently, and quite often.
i really dislike pressing call over and over for it to keep failing.
I thought it was my carrier too, but normally a reboot fixes everything!
That was happening to me quite a lot. During a phone call it would drop the call but had full 3g service. Nothing was working, calls, internet, emails, google chat.
Hasn't happened since I did a factory reset. It's a pain in the arse to keep entering all the info again but it hasn't done it since.
I guess it a temporary solution.
It happens to me as well.
Happens to me too. I'm not sure if it's just the Nexus S since it happened pretty often on my Nexus One. I use Google Voice with all calls and I think that that may be the culprit.
It may have started with the 3.3.2 update for me.
It needs a reboot to fix it. Really annoying.
This happened to me yesterday. At first I was like wtf is going on here, then I rebooted the phone.
Two days ago I un-installed the e-bay app as I noticed it started up all the time by itself, and since doing so have not had any calls dropping out.
Ok heres one for you guys!
Theres been multiple times i've been asked why I didnt answer my phone when people called, but on my phone it has not rung nor does it show a missed call. My GF just called and said she called a few minutes prior but i didnt pick up. She knew i mentioned this problem so she called again and i got it.
I REALLY dont like this bug......
Calls drop with 2.3. 3 too.
Dial..., nothing. Dial..., nothing.... sometimes it takes multiple attempts, with mane green bars.

I have i sinilar problem that i press call or speed dial then It does not call at all just goes back to the dialler screen.
Morning,
I had my phone with me at my computer table and noticed it just started to reset its self, I didn't notice that it was doing any up dates.
Has anyone experienced this?? Does it mean its faulty?? or just something random??
Cheers

This morning I received a 2nd update from Samsung, but the unexpected reboots became even worse. 1st I had 3 or 4 a day now already 4 this morning! Even during a phone call
Last night I tried do change the setting from another tread by turning off the "wifi scan for apps" but with the new update I can not check if that would have helped.
Normally I would go on and root the device etc, but now I wait because I don want to have the discussion at the retailer about tampering etc.
So YES a lot of Note 3 owners have this problem I guess.
Hey everyone, this is my first post and I really hope someone can help...
So the weirdest thing happened few hours ago. I was working and when I checked my phone I had 2 missed calls, both unsaved numbers. So I called the first number and this weird person kept asking me if I could talk. I kept asking who is on the line but the other person was just asking me the same thing over and over again. They spoke my language (not English) but with a thick accent so I knew they were foreign. I hung up and called the other number and it was my friend, whose number I have it memorized but it was also showing as unsaved number in my call log. She told me that she hasn`t tried calling me earlier, even though her number was showing as a missed call.
After that I spoke with my wife and the connection was bad, crackling and not very clear (this hasn't happened before). Then, I tried to write an SMS but I struggled as the letters seemed not aligned (also never happened before). The next time I removed it from my pocket, the flashlight was on. So I restarted it and checked my call log again. Those two missed call numbers? They were now gone from the call log. Also, it seems my battery drained much quicker after that, though I don't know if that's my mind playing tricks on me now.
It's been a loooooong day and I really didn't need this to happen now.
I really hope someone can help.
Tnx

Download and anti virus and do a complete scan
Also check if any application is installed on your device about which you don't know.

I installed avg and did a complete scan. The only weird thing was Tunein Radio Pro was shown as intrusive adware (weird...), which I uninstalled. Nothing else except that.
Also, I looked at my app list and didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
I should also say that I do have a person in mind who might be interested in hacking my phone, though I cannot say they have tried. I'm just saying they have the means to do that.
Obviously I will not just drop this and forget all about it, I was wondering if there is a way for my network provider to locate the number (which I don't have since it mysteriously disappeared from my call logs) and explore it further (if yes - how?) or I am better off just doing a factory reset and will that rectify the problem?
tnx

Hey.. I wish I have smoked something...
It was very weird, it felt like Twin Peaks with the weird phone call and the problems with the phone afterwards.
Now... I should also say that I'm not one of those paranoid guys wearing aluminium hats and claiming that the government is trying to poison us all... But you can imagine how freaked out I am, since the whole thing made me create an account here so I can post this question to you guys.
I am not a phone expert (far from it) but I'm not a beginner too, so I know when something weird happens.
Any constructive idea what to do next is welcome...
PS.
I just remembered, a day before that, around 11 pm, I got a call that was a wrong number. Now, I know that a wrong number is a wrong number but the guy was mumbling like he was trying to hide his real voice. I'm wondering if that was connected in some way with what happened the next day...
I repeat, I know how this sounds. ( but I assure you I'm just a normal guy and not a weird conspiracy theorist. I'm just connecting the dots now.
Human imagination has no limits
I have more than 5 phones
I received the wrong calls from unknown numbers and any abnormal events, but I never imagined that someone hacked my phone or watch me
Probably because I'm not Paris Hilton
Do not think for ****

yeah I get what you are saying, as I said a wrong number is a wrong number. But I am more worried with what happened after that. Do you have any explanation for the number being erased (not by me) from the call log and the weird things with the phone just after that happened? The problems I described that happened after the phone call had never happened before that...
I think you should just do a factory reset and calm down a bit
