It's just a workaround for now. The real issue is that the SMSMessage->LastModified (Date/Time sent) is off by 0x6B9B1FF124000 (6 years in FILETIME format, 100-nanoseconds since Jan 1 1601).

This should be able to be fixed slightly better by using an IMailRuleClient, checking the PR_LAST_MODIFICATION_TIME and if it's 6 years off, subtract six years. It sounds easy enough, but it's time to get a little sleep, been up for 25 hours now and I NEED SLEEP or caffeine.

ROTFL, that's what God invented caffiene for (or Meth-Amphetamine)

Hi, does anyone know how to un-install this fix?

Either delete the reg key if you did it manually or uninstall the cab.

Here's the fix for the 2016 bug, it's already been tested by Sci.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\SMS]
"RecvTimeStamp"=dword:00000001


According to Scientific, "It works like a Champ"


EDIT: The other option for 2.5.1922 native HTC Messaging users -
Software\Jataayu\Messaging\SMS\UseSystemTimeAsRecv Time dword:1
Haven't tested this one, just found it earlier today.

EDIT2: Here's 2 screen shots.

EDIT3: Attached is a CAB with both keys in it.

EDIT4: If anyone is really interested, this is how VZW's Stock rom has it set, check 85d93f55-898d-45d5-998d-221fc1f2fd8a.rgu in the OperatorOKG. Calkulin 1.3 and SSK 3.2 also have the same settings. It's also in PPCKitchen.org BuildOS, at least in the VZW Carrier rgu.

Thanks for the work ziggy.. but your screen shots don't show the year. Has this fix just eliminated the year in the time stamp or changed the date to the PROPER year?

EDIT: I back read a few posts and I think they answer my question. Thanks

Seems to have worked on my end

This is awesome! Thanks so much! It's working on my TP2 and my brothers Treo Pro!

Mine was diseased yesterday morning. Did nothing to it and at 6A this morning the date is shoring correctly.
