Re: Fix/Workaround for 2016 Issue

yeah its deff a workaround, although its a fairly good one. Its quite possible that some people would prefer the timestamp method used in this workaround as opposed to using the date received with the text.

It really comes down to would you rather the timestamp be:
1. when the person actually sent it (which is the one that is off by 6 years right now)
or
2. when you actually received it

Its really just a personal preference that we were not given the option to change previously.

For 99% of your texts the time difference wont matter, but I'm pretty sure if you had your phone off, or there was a delay in receiving the text for some reason (which happens from time to time, not specific to the TP2, but can happen to any phone) the time will be different.

I use to have a phone that almost every text would be timestamped 3 or 4 minutes earlier then when I actually got it (which would mean it took me 3 or 4 minutes to get the text, or someone's clock is off).
