[Q Wrong sms date & time - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

My gf with xperia neo v and latest original ICS version (I think 4.0.3 but not sure and can't check right now) is reporting me that when someone sends her a sms when she's her cell turned off, when she turns it back on and reads the sms, this is displaying the current time of receiving, not the actual time & date of sending.
I.e: I write her at 11 P.M but she's already asleep and phone is off. When the day after at 8.00 AM she turns the phone back on and receives the sms, the date & time is not 11 PM of the previous day but current day 8.00 AM.
Carrier is Vodafone Italy, I'm too with vodafone and other devices (mine for example) don't have this behaviour.
What could be the reason?
Thx a lot!

if you long press every single message says message details.. it has a receive date and sent date... I think that message app says the receive date-time...

I remember had that option, but can't remember on which ROM, stock or custom. But I don't have it now on stock 4.0.4 (.587)..

Indeed I asked my gf to check there just to be sure.. no clue of that option..
I was thinking that only my sms were sent and received with the "wrong" date&time but I've just received the confirmation that all sms have this problem.
Anything to check by my side? I'm on an HTC Desire S with below custom rom.. if that can help.. or something sim-related.. both mine or my gf's.

Try to reflash the kernel and check then with sony update center if she have an update to 4.0.4 buildnr 587
4.0.3 is old now since we have 4.0.4

Some of the custom ROMs have an option to display either the time received or the time sent. If this is such an important issue (and your gf won't mind getting some awesome new features), you can install her some of those new ROMs. It will impress her.
On the Neo V, I found that all JellyBean ROMs have that feature, e.g. Paranoid Android, CM 10, etc. I would assume it would be the same for Neo.

Well, I don't to root and flash a custom rom on her cell phone while it's still under warranty. And moreover without being able to update to the official 4.0.4. I found out that her cellphone has serial no. 1254 - 3173 that hasn't been updated yet (nobody with this serial is able to update via Pc companion).
Damnit.
