Great answers, but not what I was hoping for! LOL
I sent two texts to myself about 30 seconds apart from each other. The second text came in first immediately followed by the first one.
I still have no clue....
Oh dear! For as long as I have owned a mobile/cell phone, I expect to see this sort of post twice a year. Once in March or the beginning of April, ("
my texts are arriving early"), and again in October or beginning of November, ("
my texts are arriving late"), and usually from countries that change their clocks for
Daylight Saving Time, (DST).
1. It could be that you, (unlikely from your post), or the recipients of your text messages, have not changed their time or have the phone not set to the operator auto update time.
2. That the various carriers/message providers concerned have not updated their times or are having problems with handling DST.
3. That the various, other, phone manufacturers concerned are having problems with handling DST in their firmwares, (iPhones, famously, had this problem for awhile).
4. That the texts are going between other time zones that enable DST on different dates. The UK only changed last Sunday for instance. See,
here.
5. Other explanations are... you live near Area 51 or the Bermuda Triangle... you are in a parallel universe or need to wear a tinfoil hat.... or, you are, indeed, in the
Twilight Zone.
