Hellangelo 2 Report post Posted January 6, 2010 (edited) At first I thought that I was hungover from the new years party, but 6 days from 1st Jan 2010, I am still receiving SMSs with the year showing as 2016 on my HTC Touch Pro. also confirmed with some other friends using different HTC phones, same problem exists. Any idea guys, do you also face the same prob. Update: Just spoke to Reliance Customer Care, as usual they are clueless and asked me visit some HTC service center.

Hellangelo 2 Report post Posted January 6, 2010 Is this thing happening on stock ROMs or the whacked up ROMs? Whacked up ROMs have various others ways to come back and bite you ... Strangely it is also happening on stock ROMs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Genius 817 Report post Posted January 6, 2010 The solution works there is one more cab running you can try if other is not working for you Here it is Y2K16_Bug_Fix_App_Installer.CAB install - reboot - and all new sms will have current 2010 date - you can not change old ones.

amtrag 20 Report post Posted January 7, 2010 Hi, I too am facing this year 2016 bug in my mogul. Thought must be something with my device since it did not seem to be a network issue. Will try one of the cabs floating around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

::: VA ::: 531 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 If this issue is completely solved then great, but I thought since no one mentioned I d like to add that for Touch Pro based on Sprint. There is a hot fix given by HTC itself http://www.htc.com/us/support/touch-pro-sprint/downloads/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
