I apologize for posting this in the Galaxy S3 forum, but it may be more of an android problem so I am going to post it here.
I have a samsung galaxy s3 and the SMS counter is not counting.
I get the texxt messages just fine, but I receive no notification and no number on the counter.
I downloaded the handcent app and I get notifications, but still no counting or notification of how many texts are unread.
Please help?
Thanks
Mike

Hey guys!
As you can see my first post here although I frequently come to xda to fix any problems I have or to browse roms, I love this website! This is the first time that I couldnt find a thread relating to what I am looking for (I hopeI havnt missed it).
At the moment I am using CM 7.1 on my Desire HD.
I was wondering if it is possible that when I swipe to clear a notification (in particular messages, I used GO SMS for text messages and Whatsapp) that it counts as a 'read' message. At the moment it just removes it from the notification bar although the message is still unread.
I hope I made clear what I am trying to get across.
Any help would be grateful. Is what I am looking for even possible?
Thanks!!
I too would like to know the answer to this. I hate having to go into the message application for it to actuallyregister as being read.
I have recently purchased an S3 and I am quite happy with it except it is showing one unread message and when you open messages there is not any unread messages.
I have managed to clear it by rebooting my phone and then when I receive another SMS it goes back one unread even though I have read.
How do I clear this annoyance.

Are you using the stock messaging app? I bet you're not... If you have a third-party SMS app, the stock messaging app will continue to register and notify about new messages received, even if they've been read in the third-party app.
To resolve this, just switch off notifications in the stock messaging app.
This is a bug in the firmware, it has been fixed you just need to wait for the OTA to be pushed to your phone

No. This is a problem with some S3s. Check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705015
My colleague had this issue and I played around with it on Friday without success but she says that the issue was resolved on Friday and she has received several messages and calls but the 1 is not stuck on the icon after reading the message anymore. I am at a loss as to what I did...
Greetings all...I've searched up and down these forums for an app that I can set a reminder of an SMS that I already opened. For example, I'm at work, get an incoming SMS pull down the notification shade and open the SMS. I'm looking for an app where I can flag that read message and set a reminder to vibrate again for the opened message. So far all I can find is missed SMS reminders. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Haven't posted here in awhile, so excuse me if this is the wrong forum. I'm running stock jelly bean unroofed on Galaxy Nexus. I would be up for rooting my phone if necessary.

Can anyone with some knowledge tell me that which system file or anything similar is responsible to carry out the outgoing SMS task activity?
I want to have a look at it, because my phone is sending out SMS with a +1 before them which is causing the SMS not to be delivered.
P.S: I'm using Verizon Galaxy S5 latest 4.4.4 stock rom and rooted.
I've tried asking in the respectice section, but no one seems to be helping out there.
Please please, can anyone help me out? I'm kinda stuck because I cannot send any text message from stock samsung sms messaging app , google hangouts or from go sms.
I have the unlocked U1 model and cannot figure out how to get the unread email count on the application icon. I'm able to get the new email notification count, but it goes away after opening the email app. On my S7 the unread count on the shortcut would stay until the emails were marked as read. I found a thread on the samsung forum with a similar issue, but haven't seen a fix for it.
I briefly flashed the Verizon firmware on my phone for testing some other items and from what I could tell the unread count worked properly. I'm thinking this could be limited to the unlocked model, but wanted to see if anyone else has seen this behavior.
