Just for this one time we're going to get the party boat reset to 24 hours and I'll teach you how to get the money from your Mailbox and Party boat every time you use the gardening time cheat without adding hundreds of hours to your party boat.

To get the party boat to go back to normal:

1) Set your device's time to automatic so it resets to today's date.

2) Check your Party Boat hours, mine said 1495 hours. Go to google.com and type "1495 hours in days" it will say it's something like 62.29 days. Then type on Google search "62.29 days from today" It will say something like "May 26th, 2013" Now, these are the numbers I needed to figure out my Party Boat's time. Remember to use yours, we will go back to this number after a few steps, write them down if necessary.

2) Open the Sims app, make sure all your Sims are idle, not doing anything. Pick one Sim (doesn't matter which one) and Set him/her to plant something (doesn't matter what).

3) Double Tap on the Home button and EXIT the Sims app. It is very important that you exit the app completely before changing the time and anything else.

4) Open the Settings app, turn Auto Date/Time OFF and set your device to the time we figured out on google.com PLUS 2 days. In my case, I set my device to May 28th, 2013 (remember my date was May 26th, 2013).

5) Turn Airport Mode ON and wait for WI-FI, Bluetooh, and/or Cellular Data to turn to OFF.

6) Open the Sims app, you will get an error message saying you need the Internet to connect to the game, that's okay. Don't tap on RETRY. Just leave it like it is.

7) Go to Settings again, Turn Wi-Fi ON and wait for it to connect before you do anything else.

8) Go back to the Sims app and collect the stuff you planted. You will see the Mailbox money is ready... DON'T TAP ON IT YET! Go to the Town map and locate the Party Boat, if you did everything right you will notice the Party Boat is ready with gifts, tap on the Party Boat but DON'T GET ANY OF THE GIFTS YET! Leave the Sims App open.

9) Go back to Settings and turn the Time and Date back to Auto Mode, and turn Airplane Mode OFF. This will set the time and date to today's and get everything else back to normal.

10) Go back to Sims, collect your Mailbox money and Party Boat. It should now say 23h+


If for some reason it doesn't work, it's because you skipped a step or didn't do things in that exact order, I did it more than 5 times and it worked every single time. I'll try to log back often to check up on you guys and see if you need help. Enjoy!

Do the same process for the competition centre!! Just substitute YOUR number 7000 for his and in your mind substitute competition centre for party boat!!

nenaxloka Thanks sooo much!

EDIT : Well, I guess it wasn't that easy after all... tried it 4 different times 2 different ways and it did not work. When I did it with the +2 days it said the competition centre said the the same exact hours as when started, when I did it the exact amount and NOT the +2 it said 20 hours remained!

But neither worked when I came back to real time and no house held the mailbox money

Oh well..... back to the drawing board

I have noticed that if your time is more than a couple of months ahead it won't work, that blows! Everyone I've helped had to set their time forward by a couple months at most, for some reason it only works up to May... I tried with people who had their dates set to June and it didn't work either. I'm sorry!

NOTHING to be sorry about! You will help a lot of people anyway!
THANKS AGAIN You gave me that tip about collecting your mailbox anyway!

Ive heard that before Applause

WHERE in the time cheat do you get stuck OR how does it NOT work......Ive help quite a few people who thought it didnt work....

What level are you on and what device

Next, go to the below link and follow the directions exactly, then if it works tell me, if it doesnt tell me WHAT HAPPENS....... Good Luck

I have the same issue on my Ipad 2. I have 3890 hours left. Which makes the date 24/12/2013 plus two days should be 26/12/2013. Any other ideas? Thanks :(

I got the party boat to reset a slightly different way..
And I might have found a solution to fix the long wait time on the Competition Center too..
[the first part doesn't always work for me on the first try, sometimes I've had to redo the first part like 4 times because I'm not doing it quick enough or fumble the process]

(Starting with time Set Automatically)

I made 10 sims plant beans and let them completely start planting before doing anything else

Then figured out how much time was needed to get past the block on my Competition Center like it describes in step 2 in the first post.
(My Competition Center wait time was longer than what my Party Boat wait time was, so just go by whatever time is longer to get past the block on both)

Went to settings, turned airplane mode on

Fast forwarded the time needed to get past the block on my Competition Center (it was like 4000+ hours)

Double tapped home button and completely exited settings menu then entered sims app through the multitasking screen (with airplane mode still on)

Let the connection error stay on without touching retry

THE NEXT PART MUST BE DONE VERY FAST OR IT WONT WORK

press home button and go back to settings
Turn airplane mode off
Double tap home button and access sims app through multitasking screen
Quickly keep tapping retry until the sims appear, if retry window pops up a second time- keep tapping RETRY quickly

Collected all my $ from the bean plants and checked the time left on my Competition Center
A pop up window should come up too saying something like "a new competition is available, go check it out"
And the party boat icon on the bottom will be lit up showing you have gifts available

(With time still in the future)
I made a sim go compete in whatever competition was going on- preferably a sim that's trained in the subject..

Then went to my party boat and BEFORE clicking on any gifts at the top of the screen, I double tapped the home button and turned airplane mode on in the settings. Then exited the sims app completely from the multitasking screen.

While airplane mode is still on,
COMPLETELY SHUT OFF THE IPAD by pressing the power button &swipe off

Waited about 30 seconds then turned the iPad back on
Turned airplane mode off and then opened the sims game

Now my party boat is back to normal at 24hrs and I have a sim in the competition center that is competing for the next 23hrs or so..
I'm not going to use any more time cheats over the next 24hrs and I guess I will see after the competition if my wait time on the next competition will be back to normal..

This way only fixed my party boat and possibly competition center, it didn't fix the wait time on my simple an sprout plant, and that wait time was shorter than the competition center so idk why that one didn't work but I'll let you guys know what happens to my competition center time soon.

If the first part doesn't work right away, clear everything out of the multitasking window (close all background running apps) including sims.
Turn the time back to normal, then double tap home button and close the settings menu out of the multitasking screen.
Open sims back up (check to make sure the time on the boat & center didn't go up more, if it did- recalculate the date you need to get past it again and repeat the steps)
The first time mine didn't work, my competition time went up over 9000hrs and I had to recalculate.
The 2nd time still didn't work but my competition time went down to 4000hrs
3rd times a charm ;)

In the meantime I've been planting corn and just waiting out the time on the competition with no more cheating... For now at least lol

A problem I was having with Sims Freeplay was that every time I tried to access the party boat, it said, "Can't connect." or something like that. None of my times were messed up and my gifts were ready to collect, but I couldn't connect even when I had internet. When I checked my facebook account manager (within the Sims Freeplay menu), my account details were messed up and were labeled, "Unknown User." So, I logged out then logged back in and my details were fixed, and everything was fine! Hope some of you are only having a problem as simple as this! By the way, I'm using an android phone. -4/28/14
