Time Zone on only recieved SMS conversations incorrect?
 

Hi guys,

I just bought the n900 and it's great but I ran into bit of a problem regarding Conversations and SMS-

Somehow, every message I recieve is timestamped 5 Hours behind my time. I live in Toronto, Canada and my settings for Time and Date + World Clock are all set to reflect my time zone (+5 GMT) When I reply, it posts the correct time.

Example-

But, if I click on any of the received messages.. it shows two time stamps as seen below, the one to the right being the correct one.

I've double checked all the basic settings and nothing points to a solution. Perhaps the code can be changed to display the second, correct time stamp as the primary one? Any help would be tremendously appreciated!

Cheers!

I also have this problem, it seems to be caused by the network (for example, Rogers), not Maemo.

I am using a Rogers sim card, so that could very well be it. Thank you very much! I needed that bit of reassurance.

yeah i think its rogers too, because im using a rogers sim card also..

sorry to disappoint u guys but i guess d prob is not d sim its d phone...i am based in india and i had d same prob but i managed to correct it..go to settings-time n date and then u wud see that auto update of time is on and time zone is set to gmt or watever..uncheck auto update and adjust ur timezone n do not check back auto update..just click save...close conversations and open them again d time wud be fine :))

That doesn't work buddy. My advice is to put the "london, uk" timezone for those using rogers. Despite it's another country, it'll show the right time.

oops..well that worked for me...i hope u did not check back auto update as it takes it back to d old setting

Re: Time Zone on only recieved SMS conversations incorrect?
 

Changing the timezone is a mere band-aid solution...what needs to be done is for Rogers/Fido to fix it. I suggest sending an email to them. Quite a lot of people actually have this issue (try a google search) but it doesn't seem Rogers are paying any attention.

I had this problem.Now I've fixed this by this technique.Goto settings and "Restore Original settings" then device will reboot.On startup just change the time to your correct time zone time.Now see if the problem present or not.If the problem is still present then goto settings "Date and time" and check "Update automatically"

the problem is not in the phone, but in the sms center. see more info here:
