SMSTimestamp fix - Captivate General

Is there a permanent solution to fixing the SMS timestamp problem?
I'm currently using Firefly2.7 with Onyx2.0.2 and the SMS Time Fix app, but everytime I reboot my phone, I have to enable the timestamp fix.

flash the smstimefix from the firefly fix app on your phone.

I did, but it still resets everytime I reboot my phone.

Here you go:

Flash this with clockwork

That's the same one I flashed and it still doesn't work after I reboot my phone.

Are you using an app as well?
what exactly are you enabling?

When that cwm for firefly came out, I uninstalled SMS Time Fix and flashed the fix. A while later the timestamps were off again after a reboot, so I flashed it again. Then one day the timestamps messed up even without rebooting, so I installed the app again but I have to enable it every time I reboot my phone because it's always off.

Everytime you update firefly you have to reapply the CWM file.
If you have installed sms time fix from the market: You will have to uninstall it first, boot to recovery, flash the SMS timefix, then boot the phone back up.

hm, doesn't work when the app is installed just not enabled?

Nope. you have to completely uninstall it. I just tried it myself to make sure.

That could be my problem then. thanks!

So I don't think this worked, or at least something messed it up again.
I was playing with my phone last night (Switched to EXT with the Onix 2.0.2 Kernel and had to root my phone again with it, which conveniently enough can be done in recovery mode with Onix) and this morning my timestamps are messed up again..

Are you using an sms app? Other than the fixed one?
Just as a trial download Handcent and see if it works correctly

No I uninstalled it before flashing the ff fix.
Ill give handcent a shot and see if it works.

Hi I had that same issue with one of the colored themes I think it was green could not get the phone to reboot into clockwork mod either. Solution was plugging the charger in and turning phone on after thee battery charging symbol came on and it rebooted into recovery automatically were I had to restore to a ealier image backup I had that was the only way I could get past the fc's.

Can't download or install apps from the market

Exactly what the subject says. I tried clearing all data in the market app but that doesn't seem to be the problem. I'm running stock 2.2.2 with an OC kernel. Any help would be appreciated.

What are the symptoms that you are experiencing when you try to download an app
Sent From My Stock G2x
It says "Your item will be downloaded," after which the download bar appears. It disappears after a second as if the download had never even begun.

Try deleting dalvik cache, fix permissions. Turn off the phone for few minutes, turn it back on.
Did this started to happen after flashing kernel?
Make sure you are in a good reception area as well.

I think it did happen after kernel flashing. Sounds like a good idea. I'll try that and if it doesn't work I'll try reflashing Google apparently. I've noticed authentication errors. Barring that it's back to stock. Thanks for the advice

Same thing happened to me.. I fixed permission from Rom manager then reboot.
Now its working fine.
Just tried that myself. It seems to be working again

This same exact thing happened to me after changing kernels. I went back to stock and it was still happening. Four hours later everything was fine again. Weird.
Not only do you need to clear market data.. But make sure you clear 'download manager' data too in applications
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
The problem started up again and continued after flashing back to stock. Someone else said that in this thread. I'll try the download manager wipe suggestion too. Thanks for all the input. I'm on a wifi network with a strong signal so it's a stable connection... Aaaaaand... starting download... still starting download... still still starting... At least it's doing something. I'll check back in later. Thanks again!
If I wipe dalvik cache, cache, fix permissions, and reboot after letting the phone sit for 10 minutes I can download four or five apparently after which the problem returns. I've also noticed that Google talk can't seem to log in.

You can try to paste the market app you just downloaded to the system/app folder of your phone, and then I reboot. That method worked on my epic and charge.
Have you tried to do a reset again, and what rom are you using?
I rebooted a few times and it stopped Force Closing. Now I'm getting an Authentication Login Error, saying that I need to Log in to my google account.
I'm running rooted EE4 w/Voodoo Lagfix Enabled

The only thing that I can think of is to maybe disable the lagfix, wipe data, reflash the rom, then renable lagfix
But I would say the easiest way to fix this is find a rom to odin over it, maybe ep1f humble or gummy if you want GB, both are good

Finally got it working. Just waited on the screen where it asks me for authentication... then after a minute or two, it started working... weird. Thanks for the link to the new Market!

Fc on start up

Ok I've had this for awhile not sure if its a problem. Is everyone experiencing one fc on the boot up animation? I always get one fc during my bootup animation. Im on icbnb. This started when I was on trigger than continued thru black ice and now this

get the new build stop prop. fix permissions. Maybe have a faulty system partition. Odin to kc1, rfs formatter, ext4 and flash rom

I was getting a quick buzz followed by the triple-buzz FC on the original ICINB rom. After flashing the latest version again last night, I now only get a very small, quick single buzz during boot up.
haven't had any issues other than bluetooth connectivity on that first version. took multiple tries to find my earpiece, and I had to re-pair the devices just about every time. Haven't tried it yet on the latest flash though. Other than that, everything seemed to work fine.
Everything works fine with the rom and previous ones just one random ass fc on boot up. Ill try and start fresh with odin of kc1

That was the first thing I tried and it didn't work. I ended up using the back to stock program. Now I have the agonizing pain of redoing my entire phone.

did you install a second launcher (like launcher pro) and delete tw3 before installing 4.5?
I did those to steps and I have had little issue with tw4.5.
The only issue so far was yesterday, I tried dropping some apps from the app drawer onto the home screen. Each time I did this my phone did a soft reboot, after pulling battery and rebooting several times it was still an issue. So I cleared defaults for tw and ran launcher pro and everything was fine, I switched back to tw and the issue was resolved. Not sure what caused it, but clearing data/defaults seemed to do the trick.
Infused with gingerbread **** thanks GTG465X

what rom/kernel? there seems to be an incompatibility with entropy's kernel on gb for me. if you have root explorer installed you can navigate to the /system/app directory and remove it but only if you have another launcher installed. if you cant launch apps (mine showed the app drawer as blank) you can use the search key to find apps.
What I did is flash tw4.zip through CWM. Then download TW4 manager then update the latest stable version. Everything worked after that. Widgets and all
