    Default SMART's SMS timestamp is 47 mins ahead!

    This is so annoying. I don't know if it's coincidence, but I only noticed it after going up to iPhone 2.0. I noticed that text messages from my wife, who is on Smart (I'm on Globe), would stay at the top of the SMS list even if newer text messages would come in. When I open the message, I find the culprit--all messages that I receive from a SMART cellphone have timestamps that are advanced by almost 50 minutes!

    Here's the evidence.

    Screencap of the text from my wife's phone to me.


    Screencap of the text in my phone from my wife:


    Notice the times at the menu bar, identically 10:42AM. Then take notice of the timestamp of the message on my phone: 11:19AM.

    Not good. Someone from Smart should do something about this. A few minutes off is bad enough, but 47 minutes??? This is ridiculous! Two weeks ago, it was 25 minutes off. I guess the time of Smart's computer is continuously slowing down.

    I had a similar experience with my wife's iPhone. I was the one on Smart and when I looked at my message to her it was very advanced. It's as if it arrived from the future. So far it hasn't been a big issue for me but it is an issue nonetheless that Smart needs to address.

    perhaps they had a network problem, or switch upgrade, causing it to lose its synch with the time server. that will go back to normal.

    experiencing the same thing when I receive messages from smart with my globe prepaid on my trek 680 even before. Thought it was my treo which had the problem. I didn't notice though if the problem was there smart to smart-has anyone?

    This is pretty serious, especially in circumstances wherein SMS is used in disputes or points of contention.
