Anyone getting text messages from the future while on roaming? Is there a solution to fix this little probelm? I'd rather not have to use a 3rd party messaging app. I like the stock one. I'm running SRF 1.1.0.

It means that when he gets a text, it says its from a time later in the day. If he gets a text at 2p.m. the phone says he got it at 6 or 7 p.m.Usually only happens while roaming, and its a Samsung mms.apk problem, if you flash the aosp messaging, it doesn't have that problem.

Even while roaming, I only got a slew of "future" txts when I was out of my hometown...although it was the same time zone :-/
OTOH, I remember when it was New Year's Eve/Day with my old Touch Pro a few years back, and I got txts from 1/1/2013. I rejoiced in telling everyone that the Mayans were wrong and we wouldn't all die in the end times. :-D
respond back to that text from the future and ask the person for the result of the Game 2 Mavs vs Heat game. I would like to make me a few bets if ya know what I mean. ;P
I used to get these on my iphone lol but they would be from YEARS in the future and would be empty. ****ed with me for a bit. Ive never heard of anyone having this issue or even heard of the issue itself before. I just figured the iphone was a piece of **** later on lol

I have this problem quite often because I'm roaming at work. It happened on my old Hero as well. There are some apps in the market that have seemed to work, though they seemed hacky last I tried, and resigned to just live with it. Just now a search on the market revealed http://market.android.com/details?id=com.mattprecious.smsfix , which looks pretty good. Haven't tried it.

I was about to post about this before I read the entire thread. I had this same problem from day one with my Epic at work because the signal at my cube for either side isn't that great and I flip between Sprint & roaming on Verizon constantly without using Roam Control to force it to stay on Verizon (which is what I typically do since Verizon's signal strength is a little better comparatively where I sit).
Anyway, I discovered the SMS Time Fix app months ago and have been using it ever since...and it works *almost* flawlessly. I still get the occasional text that somehow slips past the app's resident process, but about 98% of the time it works perfectly and adjusts the timestamp on incoming texts. So I definitely suggest grabbing that and using it for anyone with this problem.

I'll check out the aosp messaging. Thanks for the tip.

I am now stuck with this POS phone and my wife has one to. I purchased this phone because radio shack said there is a shorter waiting list for this one and this one is better than the EVO. I like the display and the slide out keyboard and the evo side to side comparison is like night and day but now the evo is way better than the epic by far. my phone has the mysterious back syndrome when browsing with the keboard open and I am now sick of it. no flash is now causing my browser to crash when a pop up comes on and fully loads. that is new because I used to be able to x out of them a few weeks ago. And every other epic problem it has I found it. Samsung and sprint stuck it to me. everyone waiting for the 2.2 update should just face the fact there is none. Explaine the nexus s with 2.3? I beleive the problem is hardware and nobody is going to waranty a billion phones. I will never buy anything samsung again.
I need to know the easiest way to root my phone and how and what ROM has working gps,bluetooth, and doesnt crash to often (my stock one crashes once a month). I didnt want to go this way but then I cant use the phone as sprint sold it to me either. I was told the same thing everyone else ,within a couple weeks 2.2 would be availible, usb to hdmi adapter cable, flash support .ECT. the 4g speeds i have tested in 2 states only acheived 2 down 1 up . screw sprint and samsung. sprint has the crappiest coverage of all the carriers and I switched because i wanted the evo instead I got this. I am going to waste more of my time and file a BBB case against them for the lies!
wow.. are you serious... your going to complain about the phone and expect somebody to help you? how do you get anywhere in life?
Why don't you start reading?

He never owned a evo either. The evo is just as much of pos the epic is. They both got there flaws but I choose my epic over my evo
Android Creative Syndicate- From spontaneous ingenuity, comes creative brilliance
I do have an evo but don't like the android keyboard, the display sucks but it does have flash player, hdmi out, and got froyo before the epic came out. I could say that sprint friken did a hard reset on my phone yesterday to "fix" the issues I am having with the phone and forgot to tell me that my calender of appointments would be gone so I am venting a little, but when I siighned up for the phone there were lies told to me ,mainly the 2.2 update that everyone is still waiting for. And it only took 3 tries to send this from my epic because it keeps backing out of the browser with the keyboard open, that wouldn't bother you? Other phones have a keyboard calibration menu. Sprint did telll me they are going to send a new phone today so yahoo.
I did read a lot of the link that you posted for me but get confused by the problem people are having just by plugging their phone into their computers. I figured that problem out the first day after a few hours and found out the epic sucks to much power out of the USB and screws you. Now the thbread is 99+ pages of confusion and I was looking for a shortened version of the story with a good rom link . Wow I made this post without backing out of the browser for once.

So basically your clumsy thumbs are hitting the back button or the home button and you are pissed at your phone for that? That is all I am gleaming out of your nonsensical posts. How about you do this:
*Write a list like this of issues you are having with your phone
*Use plain language and drop the emotions
*Explain exactly what happens and what you are doing if anything to cause it
I'm loving the Epic. Not very happy with Sprint over the whole update, but thanks to this site I could care less when their update comes out. Loving the Midnight Rom on the Epic. Would like to check out a few more, but going to do some more reading before I do.
If my thumbs were hitting the back button that would be an easy fix, cut my thumbs off. my phone from day one backs out of even texting by itself even with it 3 feet away from any human at random. This backing out by itself only happens when the keyboard is open and I actually have slide marks on the buttons because after i type something "quick" I have to close, it otherwise at any time the page back button goes haywire. all the way back to the begining. I am not ripping on XDA or any of its members so sorry if I came off that way. I paid for the top of the line sprint phone and use it for work and home and am tired of waiting for stock update to fix these problems. I know XDA and its members are going to be the one that supports this phone because history shows. I got a good deal at new egg on the evo and use that for 1 thing. browsing the internet and when it comes to a flash file, it plays it, my epic boots me out of the browser.
Odin flash to DI18 and then update to DK28...beautiful! I highly suggest the flash so that it is clean before the update. It doesn't like a lot of changes, such as apps and rooting.
Anyone on the DI18 on here able to replicate this? I remember the browser actually being more stable, but that could just be me.... See if the replacement does the same thing, I dont think it will... unless there was a stock browser update on DI18 I dont know about. but if it FCs on keyboard open, and you are on stock, never had flashed anything... try a new one... dont give up, the software is not perfect either way, stock or leaked DK28... and will be until we get source on something... then the Devs will perfect it. Besides, stock is boring... modify!

Friendly advice: When asking for assistance, please make note of your emotional well-being at the time so you do not come across as a hormone-addled teenage girl auditioning for drama club. Trust me, I have a 17 year old girl; I see this daily and this is exactly the over-reaction I have come to expect from her. i.e., ME: "You have to do your homework before you can get on Facebook.", HER: "MY LIFE IS OVER!!!! I HAVE TO TALK TO MY FRIENDS NOW! I'M DROPPING OUT AND BECOMING A STRIPPER!!!!" ME: "..." HER: "hrmph. FINE!"
If you have a hardware problem, it's covered under manufacturer's warranty and the phone will be replaced. You already stated that you have one on the way so is the drama really necessary?
The GPS on these phones is hinkey even with 2.2. Mine seems to work flawlessly on Quantum but it freezes up after about 20 minutes of walking with cardiotrainer on. Better than 2.1, at least, because it always gets a lock in seconds.
Good thing about Android is that you can actually download other applications that perform the same function for testing. For instance, in regards to your browser problem, there are multiple browsers to download. Personally, I use Dolphin because it was the first one I tried with tabbed browsing and I love it. There are probably better ones out there, but this one suits my needs. Try multiple applications to see if your phone's hardware's the problem or if it's a software issue.
Can you give me your Epic POS (and yours wife too). And buy yourself another an EVO? PM to send you my address...

looking into why I lost my appointments on my phone I found out that my calender is stuck syncing. so i can wright off my calender ever comming back. It took me 3 months of just waiting for this update to fix the phone and the rest going through sprints tech support and even samsung to get the new phone. they didnt just say here is a new phone to try. I sure am going to root the new one the day I get it.
I did not come across this issue being mentioned, but if it has been, please point me in the right direction.
I have noticed the following behavior after upgrading/flashing to stock EB13, using ODIN:
On more than a few occassions, the phone does not ring or vibrate when a call comes in. Not only this, but the missed call no. does not display in the log of missed/received calls. This is quite annoying. Has anyone come across this?

Lately this has been a DAILY occurance for me and im PISSED about it. I use my phone for BUSINESS and my "business" is pretty important so I cant afford to be missing calls like this.
However I think that it has something to SPRINTS service and not the device itself.
Just odin'd back to STOCK DK28 & rooted last night.....It hasnt happened since....at least not yet...LOL
Yeah I think its sprint service too. My phone has done it on di18,dk28 and now eb13

Is there someone who can confirm if this is an issue with Sprint's service, or the firmware? I am having a hard time believing it would be Sprint's service, as I haven't read about this issue much - this does not prove anything, but still.
I use my phone for business, too, and definitely cannot afford to lose calls, and on top of that, not even have the missed calls appear in the call log.
Actually I was just talking to my wife and to be honest I don't ever rememrher evo doing that. Also I had an evo as well and I don't remember this issue as well. Maybe it is the epic then. Anyone else??

I've had that on every phone I've had with sprint in the last 10 years, sprint tech called it tower lock said if you remain for an extended period of time within one towers rande then move to another sometimes the calls won't get routed right, oddly enough when I've had it happen its not all calls, don't know if this is true or just bs from sprint, first time they had me take the battery out and wait 10 mins and it was fixed, second time they had to do something on their end and I had to update my prl
Haven't had it happen for about a year but I've since then moved and regularly travel between multiple towers
This has happened to me since I got this phone. Sometimes I can be calling my chick and she right in front of me and she won't receive 2 to 4 calls till the phone actually rings. Same on the receiving end she can be calling me and no calls come thru. She'll be all pissed telling me off why I don't answer my phone and ill check to see if its on silent and no, and no calls missed. I think it samsung cause my chick has an htc evo and this **** doesn't happen to her. This will probably be my last samsung purchase.
Same.here. my wife has an evo and she gets all her calls. I don't get them and I get the same thing as you. Why didn't you answer your phone? Cause the damn thing didn't ring!!!!!

I can tell you it isn't a Sprint thing, as my HTC Aria does this as well and I am on AT&T.
Im applying for jobs right now and really need to receive phone calls. Does anyone have a fix at all for this? Ive updated the PRL and it just seems to get worse.
Well at least I know I'm not the only one.... I've had issues since going to EB13, never noticed it on other base-builds tho.
Yea its started on EB13 for me too
I've had this issue for years. I always presumed is was a CDMA thing. I have email, facebook, twitter, baseball news and others using 3g to check for new items. Since all these are on different timers, they may take up a not insignificant amount of bandwidth. As CDMA sends incomming calls to voicemail if you are using 3g, I thought this was what was causing the issue. But I never turned off all updates to see if the problem went away. Might be worth trying.

By your logic, if I go back to JuiceDefender, the problem may be resolved to a point.
I've had it happen from candybar and flip regular phones and dumb phones and smartphones. This is nothing new. I've experienced it for years. My suggestion is to tell people to try calling a second time. It usually gets through then. It's not the phone, its the service or technology. The phone might be in a sleeping cycle.

QFE - Both my TP and TP2 were awful about this. Still have it happen pretty frequently with the Epic. I'm sure it's issues in the network.
Yeah ever since ive done the update my phone randomly starts to lag it sucks bad i feel like i have my hero again :/ also the white htc screen keeps coming up when i push the home key.ive had nothing but bad issues with this gingerbread update im wondering maybe because it was a download from here i forgot who posted it i think someone with the screen name football.i dont know if it was that or what but it seems like im having issues i didnt have before if anyone has a link to a office update? Cus i already did that ruu that football posted and i cant downgrade i already know about the hboot issue so dont flame me about wanting to unroot i already know that was a fail lol
Please help!! Im so damn frustrated with this update! I do have better battery life but thats about it my gps kinda acts weird as well also my 4g seems to not connect where it used to idk?anyone have any info on how i can get it up and running like.a evo shift not a overclock hero lol

A lot of people has issues with the upgrade. I have a evo flashed to metropcs and I lost my mobile network. Other than that battery life is improved but sometimes screen is lagging, white htc screen takes to much time when i switch from application to home screen and camera app doesn't start sometimes till i restart the phone. so upgrade messed me up so bad too
well if you got it from here i am guessing its still rooted so i would say d/l a new rom and start over if your not rooted there not much you can do if you like stock rom use this one if not look for a different one

Gingerbread has made my "Smart Phone" essentially useless as a Smart Phone. It wasn't great with FROYO to begin with due to the interface resetting every time I used my web browser, but now after the Gingerbread update the damn phone resets after almost every app I use!
I'm on my way to the Sprint store right now. I use my phone for work and this is making it unusable for me. They at the very least need to get me back to FROYO, or it's time for an entirely different phone I suppose.
Lol cool let me know what happens with your phone and sprint i wanna take it in or call but i just havent really tried cus its software and sprint usually doesnt wanna do anything with it cus they wanna see the problem which is very hard to duplicate since the 2.3.3 starts to fail randomly lol

I had problems
I had issues with the internal clock not updating even though the sense clock read correct, constant white screens, this update should have waited a bit in my opinion.
The update bricked the CDMA radio so bad Sprint is now sending me another Shift which I should get tomorrow. This one will only do CDMA - 1xRTT and won't even go into CDMA - EvDo rev.A at all after the update. In fact, using the ##debug# dial code and selecting EVDO Engineering, this Shift reports '<Failed>' in every field. Even a Sprint network re-provision did not fix it. Since I pay the $7 per month replacement fee, I'm guessing that I should get a 'new' Shift vice a refurb hopefully. At this point I'll be happy to get EvDo rev.A back and live with the Sense reloads because 1xRTT is way too SLOW to do much of anything!
Another bug on it that annoys the sh$$ outta me is when u use the camera or camcorder it sets the brightness level all the way up.thats a reason my phone was getting kinda hot lol

does anyone get SMS errors (like 107, 97, or any others)? Or "Radio interface resource shortage" errors?
I've been getting these for a week now since I got a refurbished phone. Called Sprint a half hour ago, and they reset something on their end that was supposed to help, but I just got an SMS error again, so apparently it didn't fix it. It's certainly not due to a lack of service, as I have full service. Profile and PRL are all updated. I haven't updated the android version yet due to the reports of bugs, and it not being rootable.
Any ideas? I can call and complain to Sprint again, and since this is my third Shift, I can get any other device, but I'd really rather not...I like the Shift lol

When I had stock 2.2 I was getting the same issues... I think its a sense thing... I am on nightly #124 now and I have absolutely no issues save for navigation. Then again ever since I went with AOSP over sense I've had no issues. If you want to stick with sense. Maybe try the RUU 2.2 or try the rooted GB update... unsure though

Maybe its just the one u have. Maybe like a bug or error. Try using the RUU. Maybe give it a fresh system. I've used the RUU and it doesn't have any issues. I'm just stabbing in the dark here.

tried that, twice. I rooted this one twice, put custom ROM's on, RUU'd a couple times, didn't fix it. I think if anything there's a problem with the antennas or the software controlling the interaction of the antennas. I'm getting another one on Tuesday, so hopefully that'll work better

I haven't had my new phone in low signal areas yet, so I'm not sure. I know my Mom's shift gets the errors quite frequently when she's at home, where signal is very weak. But I rarely got them even there. I might be out there sometime in the next few days, so I'll have to check it out.
I'm running stock, unrooted Froyo 2.2.
Last couple of days nearly every text message I send says "Failed." I have to send texts four, five, six or mroe times before it goes through without an error. However, even though it says failed not all are failed. Out of five attempts the recipient might recieve anything from one copy to all five copies.
Very frustrating to both me and my recipients. (This problem is not specific to certain people.)
Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I can do to fix this?

There's nothing you can do to alleviate the problem, we've been advising customers to be patient. The problem arose due to the connection going down between two major routing stations. Don't know why it happened, could be weather related

Sorry for the delay. Yes I work for sprint as a tech. So my info is limited.
Yes, it is a known issue. It was passed along the company intranet yesterday and popped up on every computer as an alert. We, the techs, were also consulted immediately on the problem via email by our service and repair director.
Now, as far as I was told today... it's hard to answer. yes, the issue is resolved. But the symptoms are still present for some users. One thing you have to keep in mind is that not only did sms go down, but so did our data provisioning. So there's probably a lot of stuff backed up right now. Hence, the sporadic problems.
EDIT: as far as ETA, obviously that's a little hard to answer as well.

Very much appreciate the info.
I can say that the text messages I've sent since my last post a few hours have gone through without a hitch. However, earlier today I had a few hour window where everything was working normally and I thought everything was back to normal but the problems cropped up again.
Hopefully this time everything is back to and the problems are gone. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
Thanks again.
I just saw this thread and checked my texts, I'm able to receive texts but the ones I sent out up to 6 days ago haven't been sent. This issue has definitely not been resolved. This is a huge problem, and without this thread I would have never noticed it. I tried all the fixes mentioned and nothing. MEHHHH
Edit: I'm in the NYC area.

The problem is NOT fixed. First text I tried to send today failed. I thought I was in the clear last night but I'm not. FIX THIS SPRINT!!!!!

Just out of curiousity, what ROM are you running? I was on SRF 1.2, I wiped all data and caches and reflashed SRF 1.2 and everything is good now. People are responding to the texts I sent days ago.lol

First line of the thread "I'm running stock, unrooted Froyo 2.2."
What data and cache did you clear? I prefer not to wipe out all my SMS messages. Especially since there's no guarantee that'll fix anything.
I updated my PRL today, no surprise but that didn't help matters.
The user who works for Sprint says that as of last night there is a known technical problem here. Hopefully he'll update this thread when the problem's been fully resolved. Then I'll know if there's an issue with my handset.
Today it seems like every text reports as Failed but recipients are still getting them. But it's still a crapshoot when your phone tells you the text failed. I hate this...
I didn't realize you were the OP til after I posted.lol
I wiped all cache and data in CWM(purple) and reflashed. I used MyBackup Pro before wiping and backed up my call log, mms, sms, etc. After reboot I restored everything, and all the texts that were stuck on "sending" were now all sent.
I had this same problem when I first got my phone 4 months or so ago.
I found that for whatever reason I could send and receive messages if I turned the "Data Network Mode" off. 3G would not connect, but 4G would and all of my messages sent no problem.
I'm not a real network savvy guy, and I have no clue why I ever even considered doing it. Probably just messing with all of the phone settings to see what might happen, and it worked for me. Give it a shot.
