Stock message app wrong timestamp - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm on Fido with an unlocked Galaxy S3
After the daylight savings , I've been getting wrong timestamps for received text messages only , but not sent. The messages are 1 hour prior to the time i received them ie messaged received at 2pm will be 1pm. Anyone else experiencing this after daylight savings that are on Fido network , and anyone know a fix. Currently im using SMS Timestamp Fix app as a workaround , but just wondering if there's an "acutal " fix.

I am having the exact same problem.
I am using a Bell Galaxy S3 , unlocked.
I had to download SMS Time fix to remedy the problem in the meantime.

Fido ~= Rogers
YES I am having the same problem, I live in Edmonton at (UTC - 6) before DST ended, now it's (UTC - 7). It seems that since I use carrier timestamp for my SMS timing, Rogers fell back 2 hours yesterday.
WTF anyone know a fix?

same problem here
same problem here im on rogers with note-i717 and padawan v4. it is only in coming sms my mms is got the correct time (eastern time )

I posted this problem onto the fido forums , and it seems that it's happening to many samsung phones. I think that it's the fault of the providers rather than our phones , but it seems that some people are fine as well. :\

yup me too on rogers time are all wrong, its only okay for aokp rom, not on ics roms

I'm Fido with a locked to rogers GS3 and I have no timestamp issue..

After rooting unable to send MMS while on WiFi

After rooting I can't send a MMS while on wifi. My APNs are correctly defined. When i turn of wifi it works like a charm. Any Ideas?
Thx.
Tried deleting the username in the MMS APN and now it works with wifi on too. STRANGE!
Anybody has any idea what's the cause of this erratic behaviour?
Only worked once, not working anymore

I have this problem too........but I had the problem before rooting too.
I didn't have it before rooting. I specifically tried yesterday sending a MMS while on WiFi and it worked. Today on a rooted phone it's a no go.
It's strange that it went trough once, with no username. Doesn't make any sense to me...
What network you on? I have my unrooted desire on T-Mobile UK and cannot send MMS. In testing and trouble shooting with T-mobile I have only sent 3 successfully out of at least 50!!
I have spoken with my local T-Mobile shop and they tell me a large number of customers have been complaining about MMS send failures (even thought they seem to send).
I have put message notification on for MMS and they all end up status pending. I can however receive MMS and send to myself with no problems.
Anyone else seen similar problems?
My carrier is Mobitel, Slovenia.
Can anybody confirm that after rooting his MMS is still working while connected to wifi networks?
T-Mobile desire
I rooted (cant be sure if this problem was not present before tho),
found i had problems with mms, some would occasionally get through (using handcent) although 90% would not, even though they would apper to have left my handset ok.
Some i sent to my brother arrived at his phone saying "unsupported format" which is odd, most other times nothing at would arrive at all !!
i then unrooted and flashed with a generic HTC rom....mainly to fix the mms issue !
that didnt work, im still having the same problem!
ive recently bought a o2 simplicity sim and have requested an unlock code from t-mobile (mainly due to crap reception in my basement flat) but im hoping the problem is not haunting o2 users and will go away once i switch over networks
either that or a new official rom (hopefully with FroYo, flash and xvid support!) will do the trick
would be interested to know if any T-Mobile users who have the original t-mobile rom installed have had this problem, and anyone on an o2 sim
Pissing me off tho!
EDIT: have checked and double checked APNs, reinstalled them just in case and tried all the tricks ive heard others saying have cleared the issue

I have the same problem when using the HTC stock messages or Chomp SMS but using Handcent, every MMS is sent fine without problem.
I'm on Tmobile as well.
I'm thinking it might be a problem with the ROM.
For all you T-Mobile people, does it work if you flash the non branded HTC ROM?

Dunno if this helps but I send a photo from my desire via 3g to a non-desire phone and it worked. I guess that was a MMS. (Oddly, it seemed to send it as a slideshow of 1 photo, which I thought was a little odd but I've had that on other phones before.)
Poldie, yep that's a mms. Sending without wifi connected to a network works.

You wont be any better off on o2, I am having issues sending with stock messaging app, just wont go, it will with handcent and also my partner is on o2 simplicity and her sim in my phone also works and she is able to send pictures fine. has to be below a certain size though (think it is 300kb). Phone is rooted although had similar issue with non rooted phone but worse as could not receive fulll size mms either, can now rooted. Handcent will also work sending mms, just seemsto be an issue with the stock app and HTC messaging.

Problems with GSM galaxy nexus texts

Hi all,
I just wanted to ask a question or to see if someone could help me out.
Ever since i have had the 4.0.4 upgrade randomly i send texts, they say they have sent and the end user never gets them, and vice versa if someone sends me a text randomly sometimes i wont receive them, I'm not 100% sure if its for everyone as i mainly text my girlfriend.
Is there anyway i could pinpoint the problem, with the phone?the software, the network?
Any special free tools i can run to check sms options or anything?
Btw my phone is not rooted.
Thanks.
most problems with sms seem to be related to the network, not the phone.
More than likely its the network... what carrier?
This is a common and recurring problem on sprint, its the main reason I dropped them 3 years ago

[Q] Telus T989 MMS/ Pic msg issues - help plz?

Hi folks,
Sometimes I can't receive picture messages and I can never send them to my wife's telus phone. They show up as white squares with no text included. Anybody had this or can provide suggestions? I have tried many things so far. Full story below...
Thanks
**************************
I have a Telus T989/ S2X. I have had it for 1.5 yrs and have flashed numerous ROMS since I rooted it about a year ago. Over this time I have had MMS issues on and off.
From early ICS ROMS (darkside) and now to Jelly Bean roms (CM10 nightly, Jedi Jelly, Slim-Star...and more) I have had a strange issue. I can send picture messages to almost everyone and receive from almost everyone. Occasionally I have an issue receiving from friends on the Rogers/ Fido network and it stalls at 'downloading'. I tried unchecking auto-retrieve and it does not fix it. I have also tried multiple radios on multiple roms.
More recently my msgs cannot be viewed when I send them to my wife's phone ( I know, a blessing sometimes right?). She is on the same network (Telus) and has no problem sending/ receiving from anyone. When I send to her it shows as a white/ blank square and none of the text I typed shows up. Regular text are no problem ever.
I called Telus support and they ran me through checking the APN settings and a bunch of other tests sending pics back and forth and no fix. They are going to escalate the problem. I tried the trick of sending yourself a picture via gmail too without any luck. I didn't tell them I was rooted and on 4.1.2....but I have tried tons of diff roms and done a bunch of searching on the forums and google.
Just today I tried the Koodo 4.0.4 rooted ROM with no luck. Then I got pissed off and backed everything up and rolled back to the Telus 2.3.5 Gingerbread ROM. Guess what? MMS worked just fine!!?? I double checked the APN settings and they were identical.
So....has anyone else had this issue? I don't want to be stuck on Gingerbread just to use MMS. Could it be that the newer versions of the MMS/ SMS have issues? I noticed that when I went back to 2.3.5 it said "converting to MMS" when I attached a pic. I never see that in any other ROM.
Any suggestions or solutions that people have come across? I am slightly frustrated....especially since my wife's Nexus S has no problems and my S2X is way better but failing.
Thanks for your time and thoughts folks!

maybe u were send pics that were larger than the network supports. Hypothetically telus may only support 5meg attachments while Rogers/Fido does 10 ( I think this is actually the case but I'm not 100% sure). Use a third party app like hand cent or gosms that supports MMS compression and see how u fair

It seems like some are getting through with Handcent. So the stock app in CM10 is not working then? I should try different size files maybe to see if that is a factor like you said.

[Q] Can't receive MMS after flashing to Virgin Mobile. APN fix doesn't work.

Hi guys,
So I bought a Sprint Galaxy S3 about a year ago and (thanks to this forum mostly) got it flashed over to Virgin Mobile running CM10. For the past year, everything has worked great, EXCEPT I can't receive any MMS. I can send them just fine, but if someone sends me one, I don't get anything. I have tried manually changing the APN settings in Go SMS and applying the APN fix from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794956 but still no dice. I've just kind of lived with it thus far, but now it's getting kind of old.
After searching the vast interwebs, I haven't been able to find any alternative solutions- most people seem to have problems sending but not receiving. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Anyone?

MMS messages not downloading or being received at all - AT&T

Hi, all.
Experiencing an issue that is getting seemingly worse by the day.
Pixel 2 XL, stock, up to date, using stock Messages app: MMS (usually in context of group messages) are randomly not coming through. At times, I see a prompt to 'download' the message, which will fail....other times, I don't get them at all (I know this b/c my wife and I will be on the same group convo and I won't see half of what she does). Mostly not getting messages from iPhone users, regardless of carrier.
There's a thread in the AT&T community about it....and I've tried it all. Manually inputting the APN info, resetting network/bluetooth/wifi, turning off enhanced LTE, restarts, resets, wifi on/off....nothing helps at all.
The issue started a few weeks ago, and there seems to be an increasing number of AT&T users experiencing this. I strongly doubt it's a hardware issue with the Pixel....and neither Google nor AT&T are acknowledging an issue.
I feel pretty strongly that it's an AT&T issue....
Is anyone experiencing this, too? Or, does anyone have a workaround they can suggest?
Would appreciate any and all insight/input.
Thanks!!
I'm experiencing this as well. I'm sure it's an att issue. The only solution I've found is to disable enhanced 4g LTE but this is unacceptable
After days of troubleshooting it looks like the solution for me was to get a replacement sim card. MMS now works. Hopefully this works for anybody else having this issue.
I have been experiencing the same issue for about 2 weeks. I also tried all of the above with no resolution. Finally yesterday Google Support acknowledged there is a known issue with AT&T. Their solution...they are sending me a replacement Pixel 2 XL. Not the best solution in my opinion and if the issue really is the SIM card it means even with a replacement phone the issue may continue. Guess I'll have to wait and see. Finger crossed!
