Text and Phone message times change when powering phone off and back on. I called AT&T and Samsung, neither have a good answer. AT&T doesn't know and Samsung told me it was a default setting. I don't buy it! When I send messages and power off/on the time is accurate it is only incoming messags and calls.

I have the same phone, I have the same problem with my phone.
But when my phone starts receiving same messages by a same user at a time.
I restart my phone. Then, it gets back to its normal.

There are no ways at all to block text messages. You can only block unwanted calls.

Sorry.

I have the V170 phone and had the "Max Call Numbers are Reached" message. I removed the battery and sim card then put them back in. When I powered up the phone I had to reset the date and time but the message was gone. My phone numbers were still in the phone. Everything seems to work fine now. Hope this helps

I had the same error message on my Samsung a900. I deleted everything and then did a soft power off. The first power off/on didn't work but after turning the phone off for about 5 minutes and then turning it back on, all the messages I missed were received all at once.
