Hmm, this is not covered by the User Manual? If so, feel free to file an enhancement request in bugs.maemo.org...

is this what you're referring to? this is the only place I know that I can change my timezone, and it is set correctly.

nobody else is having this issue though? I don't want to submit a bug/enhancement if it's only me.

Obviously fixing your timezone setting isn't going to fix the server's. As i said, regardless of that you should be able to choose which time shows: submit a bug report as an "enhancement" request.

i was under the impression that plain old enhancement requests were forbidden and you need to do the full brainstorm dance for that kind of thing now?

Looks like your timezone is right for the clock, but see the GMT -5 which must be a clue (your messages are out by 5 hours). I dont have a n900 yet so cant tell you if there is a different device time, or if its a server thing.

you're probably on rogers or fido. they have a problem with their sms server so it's not really a problem with the phone.

i've already submitted a bug report about this:

Just to chime in:
- exactly the same problem (Fido here)

I wouldn't blame Fido for this though - all my other phones (and presumably all the phones that they carry as well) managed to show the correct time for incoming messages.

The solution to this problem is simple. Go to clocks and in world clocks which ever local time u have set remove tic from update automatically.
this should solve it !! njoy

Dear Sufferers of Bug #5994, "Incoming SMS show the wrong time",

I have a temporary, but working solution!

As you know, incoming SMS messages come with two timestamps: time sent and time received. The time sent is the time that is displayed in the conversation thread, and it's what we have problems with. By tapping individual messages, you can check the time received - which is always in local phone time.

A few months ago, I tried to participate in the discussion at https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5994. The developers closed the issue, blaming everything on network operators and ignoring my suggestions to introduce a custom setting to let the user decide whether to display the Time Sent or the Time Received for incoming messages.

Dejected, I looked into the issue myself, with the intent of replacing the Time Sent stamp with the Time Received stamp for incoming messages.

I read into the Customizing SMS Conversations thread and I found that although the Conversations template includes a field for Time Received, this field is always blank, and never becomes populated.

To work around this, I wrote the following hack. It allows the user to shift the timestamps of all received messages by any number of hours.

At the moment, it only works for the English (US) date format, with 24-hour notation enabled. I have made the code as clean and well-documented as I could, so that adding other formats would be easy and fun for anyone who is interested.

If you wish to test this patch, please set your date format to English (US) and enable 24-hour notation.


INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Copy ConversationHacks.ini to /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/.

2. Edit ConversationHacks.ini to set the correct offset

3. Back up your /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.js file.

4. Replace /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.js with the file I provide below. Alternatively, apply /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/MessagingWidgetsSMSConversation.js.patch This may be useful if you've modified your version for theming or other purposes.

5. Close the Conversation app and any open SMS or IM windows.


Enjoy!
