dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted January 4, 2010 (edited) All incoming messages I am receiving on my Reliance Prepaid CDMA connection is showing the correct Date and Time BUT the year is being shown as 2016... on my windows mobile phone (HTC Touch Pro). As I am viewing them date wise, this is causing a problem in message filing, as my outgoing are going on correct date; hence in chat style message testing messages are getting lopsided... This has started happening since 1st Jan, 2010. Is it happening to anyone else also? Please update? EDIT: The Issue has been SOLVED....

::Hitesh:: 1,763 Report post Posted January 4, 2010 I did not face this problem on my RCDMA pre paid and postpaid, also RGSM prepaid is showing correct dates. May be your handset settings ??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted January 4, 2010 (edited) this problem has started only since 1st Jan 2010; no setting issues, as outgoing are showing correct date; but incoming like e.g. from reliance when I check balance by sending bal to 53670 the reply I have just got came with date 04-Jan-16 6:39PM.... however delivery notifications are coming with proper date... some backend server issues, I presume... Pls check complete date and update; specially in those handsets where complete date is shown... also I wud request windows mobile/smartphone/blackberry users to also update...

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted January 4, 2010 (edited) OK, I fixed this issue by adding this entry in my registry - [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\SMS] "RecvTimeStamp"=dword:00000001 Kindly note that entry is not there and has to be added and the Dword value has to be put as 1; Note that this is a FIX, not a permanent solution; now what it will do is use the current system date and time as the received date and time; Now if ur mobile will be OFF, u will face issue that you will not be able to detect when the message (i.e. how long ago) was it exactly sent. BUT this has solved a big headache for me for the moment... read the above PPCGeeks post if you have any questions/issues... Procedure- Open Resco Explorer 2008 with registry addin added or any registry editor Go to My Registry Click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Go to Software\OEM\SMS Click Menu-New-DWORD Value Give the Name - RecvTimeStamp and put DWORD Data as 1 Click Done Reboot PPC Issue solved Edited January 4, 2010 by dkaile 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted January 5, 2010 ^ yes, i had to delete my earlier messages between 1st and 4th Jan to set things right... there's another way to import them into excel and correct them, but i didnt find that feasable and thought deleting them to be an easier option... also, the above simple one line registry entry does the work fine...
