Re: text messages from the future Y2KX issue

lol. I just called verizon to see if they had received notice or other reports of people complaining about this (i know it isn't carrier specific, but i can dream that the device manufacturers send notice of problems to the carriers) and not only did i get the "no i'm sorry sir, we have heard nothing about this problem" i was also told that "it could be because we are in the northeast and it hasn't hit us yet" after i told her this problem has been reported world wide and also asked me if i had any other problems with my driod eris after i said "Windows Mobile devices" about 40 times in the course of the call...

sigh...

I'm just gonna use my friends here at ppc geeks for any tech support problems I have, k?

also, google searching hasn't found a fix yet.

Are you sure your friends Snap is fine?
My girlfriend's Snap is showing the issue....

In her messaging it just showing the date and month....
Normally the time would show from recieved and sent messages until the day passes then show the date and month....

All of her recieved messages show 1/01 but her sent messages show sent time....

Re: text messages from the future Y2KX issue

Having the same problem as everyone else. I don't care for the threaded messaging anyway. There is a .cab that disables threaded sms that I found at xda-developers called sms_mode_V31.cab (I cannot post links yet) that I'm thinking of trying. Obviously won't fix the 2016 thing, but at least it would make the out of order convo problem moot.

Re: text messages from the future Y2KX issue

instead of Y2kX (2010) wouldn't it be better to call it the Y2KXVI (2016) issue? if it was saying 2010 it wouldn't really be an issue would it?

or maybe MMXVI Issue

or how about the Y2K4^2 issue?
