A summary of the problems.
- The timestamp on all received SMS's are 1 hour behind & the issue began on DST changes.
- The timestamp on all received SMS's are hours ahead / behind & are not related to DST.
- While the received SMS timestamp is off, all sent SMS's are perfectly fine.
- It messes up ordering of SMS's [if ordered by time received / sent].
A summary of the fixes.
- CAB from Diamond forum.
> Download and install
> OR create [HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\TrustTimeZoneField= 0]
- Registry change from Raphael forum.
> Create [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\ConsistentRoamingIconSlot= 0]
- CAB of Official Microsoft DST patch [Updated Aug 09].
> Download and install
- Registry change from Kaiser forum.
> Create [HKLM\Software\OEM\SMS\RecvTimeStamp= 0]
- Changing system time zone from Sapphire forum.
> Fiddle with System Time Zone [Settings > System > Clocks & Alarms > Time]
* if a key [eg. "SMS" in HKLM\Software\OEM\SMS] does not exist, create it [as a KEY].
* if a value [eg. "RecvTimeStamp" in HKLM\Software\OEM\SMS\RecvTimeStamp =0] does not exist, create it [as a DWORD].
My issue.
- My issue started with the DST change - my received SMS timestamps are 1 hour behind.
- All fixes I listed above are installed / entered, but do not work for me.
- A text from myself has the correct timestamp
- Other texts still have incorrect timestamps [1 hour behind]
- These texts were from an iPhone 3G / SE K800i on the 3 network
- Any suggestions?
Anyone?
It seems the Q&A forum lacks in answers...should it become the Q forum?
[Sorry if that comes across as harsh...but I really haven't found many answers here...]

Lumic,
Sorry if this sounds harsh, but this question has been asked many, many times and is resolvable (did you search, i found this using google in 3 minutes )
There is a solution at microsoft site for DST here : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/975353/en-us
Not read it all but i have posted this solution a year or so ago and it worked for others.

The patch you provided still links back to this is the same Microsoft "DST update" I stated did not work for me in the original post.

My searching isn't perfect, but as you saw I tried 3 xda-devs methods and the official Microsoft update. Could you point me towards other possible fixes [such as your own] if you know some?
Apolos......My bad, should read 100% and not 98 % lol
Edit....
I had posted this cab also, but noticed it had been posted in the diamond forum also.....
Most of these fixes work for 99% of people, i guess you are the exception
I am going to have to have a deeper dig, so apols if you dont get ur answer straight away
Cheers.
Thanks for your effort timmymarsh, I really appreciate it. I must say I have to take back my previous words - I guess the Q&A section does have good posters - I just don't see them often enough ;}
I am going to experiment with a few fixes at once, and continue to search for other "solutions".
Edit: I tried a few different search terms, and came across another registry entry from the Kaiser forum...which did not work.
I have updated the first post - I can text myself and receive the correct timestamp, but when my friend texts me the problem remains.

we do try
Thats interesting, is your mate on the same network and has he tried the df fix (or ms one). THis would prove (or not) that the timefix works. I believe it is not your phone that is the problem but other peoples which is why texting yourself works. Many people who have applied the fixs using all kinds of devices say they have no further problems, but of course if someones devices doesnt have the fix then the timings will appear incorrect.........
.........or am i just being simple
I am on the TPG network [which I believe leverages the Optus network].
My friend is on 3.
At first I thought it might be his problem too. However, his system time is correct, and I should note he is not on a WinMo / WinPho, but an iPhone 3G.
I also got a text from a SE K800i on 3, and the timestamp was again behind by 1 hour.
My guess only: Your friends' location is another timezone from your current location.

I can practically walk to my friend's house.
Update: I am now going to fiddle around with the system time zone.
Found a thread in the Sapphire apps & games [???] forum that says that I should adjust the system time zone.
Update: Tried adjusting the time zone, but it didn't help.
This is an interesting point though - in a time zone I changed to[I think GMT +11, from GMT +10], it corrected some SMS's I had already received [i.e. that were sitting in my inbox].
However, the ones I received after the change were still behind by 1 hour.
Could this mean it is a network / external problem?

Actually I had to set the value to 1 for the time stamp to work on my Diamond diam500. I have to do this every time I flash a new ROM or my sms timestamps are 5 hours in the future screwing up my threads conversations.

I will check this out, though I believe I made a typo and in fact set it to 1.

Why dont you create a cab with the reg change that you can auto install via UC after the flash?
If you dont know how, there are websites that you can type in the reg change you want to do enabling you to download the cab.
If you need it i will try and find the site if you dont have software to do this for yourself.
Chow.
Here is the cab download time zone fix thing. This link works as of now. The market place is no longer working. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977014

I have the same problem in Hawaii. I think its a network thing. It is like this for me on sprint and ATT when using my sprint branded TP2 in Hawaii. I cant figure it out.
Hi all,
I have a recently rooted X10 SE and I've been trying to find out how to set it to receive channel 13 wireless.
The firmware is German so it should already work, but I suspect SE has just locked it down to 11 channels worldwide.
Looking at the kernel modules, the wireless chip seems to be an Ar6000 which from my searching is capable of doing all channels.
I was expecting to find some xml file somewhere to set it but I'll be naffed if I can find anything..
failing that, apparently compiling the iw module http://wireless.kernel.org/download/iw/
allows it to be set, but I have not a clue how to get that compiled for the kernel in the X10..
Just hoping someone here understands any of the following:
1. How to re-enable the "Regulatory domain" setting in wireless/advanced (I know cyanogen has done it in his firmware, but have not a clue how.)
2. What setting the above tool actually changed so I can do it manually.
3. Failing all else, how do I compile IW to android? I know my way around GCC but I don't remember their being any android hooks in it.
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions are most welcome.

Frank
PS, now that the X10 is rooted, I look at it in a whole new light.
I'd also like to know. Zero replies and almost 200 views...
i am using smartphone. when i open radio app in the device i can enter frequency b/w 80.0 megahertz to 108.0 megahertz. Is it possible to enter frequency which has 8 decimals (example: 89.32165487 megahertz)
Hi,
I very much doubt that. It's for FM radio and it doesn't work like that. Nor would it be helpful, as FM stations use one decimal place.
You could contact the app developer to confirm. Or if it's an app that came pre-installed on your device, you could ask in your device section..... I would guide there, but you didn't state your device make and model number.
?
As the title states, is it possible to modify the country code to adjust the WiFi Regulatory Domains? Specifically to open previously invisible channels on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz.
It does not matter if it is by an application or by modifying with root.
Thank you.
AOSP has included the V15 RIL_InitialAttachApn structure in ril.h, where i see the new member call modemCognitive
As per the ril.h documentation for modemCognitive member "indicating the APN setting was sent to the modem through setDataProfile earlier"
what does it mean? if i set modemCognitive variable to true, then Initial Attach APN setting are taken from the DataProfile which is sent modem earlier.
It this my understanding correct?
if yes, what will happen if modem has two data profile with IA bitMask Set which one will be choosed?
