Today I was downloading my photos off the phone to my laptop
using the Kies software.
Once the thumbnails were showing I sorted them by Year
and was amazed to see a large number of them were
dated 30-12-1899.
I know I am getting on but I am definitely not that old nor is my mobile.
Yes the phone is set to the correct date and year?.

Any idea's.:confused:

Open the camera app and see if there is anything in there related to a date/time stamp setting. Also, open up an image on the phone and check the information to make sure the photo is displaying proper dates/times. Then upload that same photo to your computer and check the same information. Start there to try and pinpoint the problem, perhaps it's with the PC not reading the date/time correctly.
