Corrects the "double date change" bug in the Sprint CDMA Treo 650 which is still not fixed in the 1.08 ROM update. When "Enable Network Time" is enabled, the date resets to 1980 periodically. With this hack, you can once again use network time, same as every other cell phone.
How it works: It hooks the OS trap to set the system time and rejects any attempt to set it before about 1990. Since the incorrect time is usally around 1980, the invalid set gets blocked. I've verified it using the GoTreo Software's DisplayTimeChange utility, and also using the date setter in the preferences. If for some reason, you actually want your Treo to think it's last century, you'll need to disable the hack. Requires the YAHM hack manager.
