Hi guys,

so this started happening maybe a week ago... when i am having a convo with someone over txt and lets say they message me at 12:15, then if i respond back while it is still 12:15, even though my message came after theirs, my phone puts my message ahead of theirs in the chat window... if i respond at 12:16 then it's fine and it puts my response after theirs.

I dont get why it's happening. I tried restarting but nothing... anyone has/had the same issue?

thanks!

Double check your date and time on your phone. Check if it is set to "automatic". That's been an issue with Android for years. Many people had that issue with the HTC EVO 4G and many other phones. If your date and time is correct, it could be one of many different things.
 
Hi

Yes, also if her phone time is not on auto but is say 59 seconds ahead of yours, what you describe can certainly happen.

thanks guys... it was the time... odd because i never changed it not to be automatic... it changed on its own one day =/

seems fixed now *fingers crossed*
