SMS Sent Time

Available in :
Adds the time when an SMS was ACTUALLY SENT to your messages (only useful for devices which just show the receive time of SMS, eg. Galaxy S).

******
CURRENT NOTE (regarding some market comments): Unfortunately it is impossible on principle to add the sent time to messages which have been received before this app was installed. Sorry about that, it's technically impossible. :-(
******


-------
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR USERS OF "Go SMS":
Do not disable stock's notifications from Go SMS ("Receive Settings"->"Disable other message notification"), instead disable them from the stock app itself (otherwise no other app than Go SMS will be notified by Android about incoming SMS - and therefore this app also won't work). [Thanks to Dimitrios for this important hint!]
-------

It appends the sent time to the message text (the original timestamp will be kept untouched). Should work with all SMS Apps (Handcent SMS, chompSMS, Go SMS, etc..). Depends on SMS implementation details and your provider, so maybe doesn't work everywhere. Some SMS apps also may be confused if another app appends something to the  message text in background. So please leave a comment whether it's working with your device/provider/app or not. Thanks! :-)


DETAILS:
--------------------
Many Android devices only display the timestamp when a message was received (not sent). This is a problem when you receive messages while your phone is turned off (or has no network coverage). In this case you don't know when the message was really sent (as you only see the received time when you turn on the phone again).

Also allows to add the SMSC (sms service centre) number from where the message was sent (technical stuff for people who are interested).


ABOUT:
--------------------
Ad-free! Resource-efficient: does not run as a background service, only gets started by Android when a SMS is received.
Another thing: I develop this only in my spare time, so please understand if it's not perfect (and give me feedback). :-)


TECHNICAL:
--------------------
Tested successfully with Austrian providers. Theoretically it may be possible that the added sent time may be incorrect (different tiomezone) if the SMS service centre of the sender is located in a different timezone.


EXPLANATION OF PERMISSIONS:
------------------------------------------------
- "RECEIVE SMS": necessary for reading the sent time out of the received SMS data package from the mobile provider

- "EDIT SMS OR MMS": necessary for adding the sent time to the message in the device's SMS database

- "READ SMS OR MMS": necessary for looking up the message to edit in the sms database

- "MODIFY/DELETE SD CARD CONTENTS": necessary for writing logfile to SD (when logging is enabled)

Have fun while texting! :-)

Great app but.. It's great... But sometimes the time stamp is earlier by 1 or 2 minutes... I'm using samsung galaxy y.. Is there any way to make the time more accurate?

by KO the 2/15/2012

Essential for Android Works almost flawlessly on Nexus. Only gets 4 stars because the time stamp isn't always added to a message. So far this has only happened during the rare occasions when an sms is received in the first few seconds during the on-cycle after the phone has been turned off, so I'm happy! Great app ;-)

by Issiac the 2/8/2012

Works good So simple... Every sms app should come with this, ghanks a million for such a great app... Works great with handcent sms

by Anonymous the 1/6/2012

Fantastic app! Waited over a year for this feature on my Galaxy S. Easily customised. Works perfectly with android 2.3.4.

by Alex the 12/31/2011

Great application Simple and efficient application.

by Muhammad the 12/12/2011

Awesome Really helpful app!

by jiajun the 12/7/2011

Works good but found a better solution Works as advertised. However, I don't like having this information added to every message so I found another solution. Install GO SMS, settings, advanced, important tips, enable "stock SMS uninstalled?". Now freeze or uninstall stock messaging app to avoid duplicate messages. Now GO SMS will handle the message retrieval and you can see both sent and received times in message details. The stock messaging app deletes this info when receiving messages so as the developer says there is no way to get this info for messages already received.

Thaaaanks alot It solve the sms sent time problem

by Ruggero the 11/9/2011

Good Work! It works perfectly. You should add an option to fix SMS received before app installation or when app is not active.

by Kevin the 11/6/2011

Love it, but... ...it does not play nice with SMS Popup. I use SMS popup and have notifications disabled for the stock messaging app. When I press "close" on SMS popup it is supposed to clear the notification from the bar, however since installing SMS Sent Time Fix, the notification remains.
