Dates of Old Events: Problems - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I bought the Hero (the HTC Hero ) for my wife a couple of months ago and she reported a problem recently.
She has several relatives on her contact list (grandmother etc.), who were born before the year of 1945.
So, when entering a birthday for such a contact the dates which appear in contact details after pressing ok, are displayed incorrectly.
E.g. a birthday falls on 10.01.1929. You enter this date, press ok and see that the date which is displayed is one day earlier, 09.01.1929 (or one day later? I don't remember exactly).
You go to re-enter the date again, thinking that you just mistyped it, - no, it is displayed ok inside the settings (10.01.1929).
This problem is applicable for all dates earlier than 01 January 1945, if I remember correctly.
Anyone?
Thanks in advance.

Guys!
Can anyone at least try to set a birthday for a contact with the date in the said interval (earlier than 01.01.1945)?
I just need to confirm that this is a general OS bug and I am not alone.
Thanks.

I have the same problem. I didnt find any solution for that.

Issues sending SMS's, i have searched forum :-)

Hi All,
I have searched on this one and can't quite find anyone with a resolution, either positive or negative. Any help is appreciated.
When sending SMS's i have found that my contacts lists will show the correct entries for the person that i search for. However after about 2 seconds, all the entries (ie home p, mobile p & work p) will change into e-mail entries. If i guess & click on correct one it fills out the SMS form correctly, however this is a bit hit and miss. Whats worse is that the order changes!
Thanks guys, and if i have missed the post with the solution please accept my apologies & i understand I’ll be suitably chastised.
PS - ROM 3.17.03 ENG with RADIO 4.21.00
Confirmed...
It happens when you go to 'inbox', hit 'New' (left-bottom), hit the contacts icon, and then use the 'search' function to look for someone with more than one entry of either type 'mobile' or 'email'.
Bad bug, they never tested the search from here. Must say I never search from there either. Looks like the search results window is populated in a screwed up way, where the order of the real information and the displayed information doesn't match.
They really need to force these developers to use their own code on a day-by-day basis.
( I send my SMS's by just going to the contacts straight away, tap and hold a contact and selecting 'Send SMS' from the context menu. Works unless you're sending the same message to a number of people, I guess.)
Thanks for that, seems to be a bit too much "they didn't test" in this product i must say.
I'm sure they'll get it all sorted in the end. It took a very long time to get PPC2002 to a usable state .

Yikes! where did all the threads go?

hopefully temporary...
edit:
ahhh.... I see now. Default sort now only shows threads from the last day.
what? i don't understand the problem you are seeing.
Yesterday we changed the forum names from TyTN to Hermes and had some problems with sorting, but it should be solved AFAIK. If we missed anything please report it
My Display Options defaults have become:
Sorted By: Last Post Time
Sort Order: Descending
From The : Last Day
The last option used to default to "Beginning". Thus my initial confusion. I changed my profile options to overried the new forum default.

[Q] Help with after root problems?

Hello everyone,
This is my first post here so be gentle. Ive attempted to root two devices before, the Note 8 and the Asus Transformer. Finally I received my Note 3 as my first smartphone through my own funds and I, after long thought, decided to root and screw the warranty. Ive had alot of trouble along the way, including no messaging for lack of a SMSC number and many other things. I have re-flashed Cyanogen Mod 11 multiple times but I still have two errors. I have a phantom voicemail notification saying I have four new voicemails. I have signed up for google voice and that did not fix it. My second issue is that my home button does not wake my device. I have tried the settings change on line 172 in the generic file but that did nothing and I do have it enabled in settings.
I appreciate any guidance I can receive.
P.S.
This forum has gotten me out of about 4 boot loops now, hallelujah! To put into context the "own funds" statement, im a sophomore in highschool.
Thanks again. Sorry for the long post.

Problem syncing contacts to 2006 BMW (E90) over bluetooth

I have an issue when trying to sync my UK (PLK-L01 running B140, not rooted) to my BMW Professional BT system. It seems to only load the first contact from my phone and then shows a load of garbled text as another contact. I can still make and receive calls fine. I've tried unpairing and repairing the phone, also my contacts are stored on my gmail account and not on the SIM card.
I've also not had this issue with any of my previous Android phones (Moto G, Nexus 5, WileyFox) so I assume that it must be an issue with the Honor itself.
Has anyone else seen this issue or have any idea what to do to fix it?
Thanks
Dave
Had you received any update notification? You should be at B180. I hadn't read the changelog but it might contain changes in the BT stack.
My HU (JVC) displays last name first which is annoying, although I´ve not wasted any time looking into it.
Do you have contacts presented in the same manner in all your phones? Do you have that behavior in call logs, contact list and searching for a specific contact in the HU?
One thing I know from my experience (Samsung, HTC): old HU dont get along quite well with newer Android releases.

Thanks for your response, yes I probably should be on B180 but I haven't received any OTA updates, however I'll try updating manually and will see if that fixes the issue. In answer to your questions, yes my contacts are setup the same in this phone as they were in my previous ones. In the call logs on the HU I just see the numbers of the people that I have dialed and not their names, also there is no option to search for a contact in my HU.
Thanks

Also see if that behavior persists with SIM and phone-memory contacts.

ok, I'll have a look at that too
Just an update on this, it seems that this issue is now resolved following the install of MM.
I have recently updated to Marshmallow... Now with bluetooth in my BMW 2009 I can't see contacts in my car..only the first appears!!! ....
Works only the vivavoice if I make calls manually with the phone or in receive....

Help! Email/ keylog recovery

Ok, so on dec 1, 2016, i composed a very long, very articulate, very impassioned email which i cannot recreate. I know i sent that email from the gmail app just after 7pm us mountain time. I checked back several hrs later to discover that it was not in my sent folder, or my drafts (well, a small portion of it was - saved when i copy pasted the beggining from a messaging app), nor my trash. I do not know hay many pages it would have been, as i typed it on my phone (zte elite) but it was long.
I know there has to be a way to recover this, but i know nothing about debugging androids. I suspect this screenshot might be a good place to start (ok, somebody tell me how to upload an image) it is a capture of folder in my phone titled " phone/zemail/5db_att " with 7 files in it, all dated 12/1/16
Also tell me if i should post this anywhere else on here. Thanks!
