BUT... why if i copy all messages to computer, master reset phone, copy messages back to phone, why are the sent times still there? the sent times must've been sent to the computer, so surely you can retrieve them? :s
I think i didn't understand you. On the upload its possible to set a date:
- systemtime in phone is setted to the specified date
- message upload
- set phonetime back to now
But if there is no time read out its not possible to set the right time back to phone. Possible you corrected the time manually in myPhoneExplorer before you made the backup.
