I have Palm Threaded SMS installed on my WM6 Hermes. Every so often a message gets caught in between the original SMS program and the threaded program and displays messages saying "2 Unread Messages" when there are none unread.
After redoing my whole OS for the billionth time a friend gave me instructions on fixing the issue. Install a registry editor like Total Commander, Clear out my inbox and turn on flight mode, Install Palm Threaded SMS, Open Total Commander and go to: \\ - Registry - HKLM - Software - Microsoft - Inbox - SVC, then Rename “SMS” to “SMS1.old” and Rename “MMS1” to “MMS1.old”, turn off power via power button, turn phone back on and turn off flight mode.
Yeah, so it worked okay for a week or 2, then the messages became stuck again.. showing "2 Unread Messages" when none were unread.
I also tried to display my normal "Inbox" on the today screen so that I had access to reading my outlook e-mail, and that display now ALWAYS says "SMS: 1 UNREAD"
Is there any new Threaded SMS program that won't allow messages to get caught between the programs? I'm so tired of having to reinstall WM6 in order to get rid of the Threaded SMS and reinstall it so that it doesn't say I have all of these messages that didn't go through, and now my SMS isn't even working properly. Apparantly people are receiving my texts, but their replies are not even coming through on my end at all. Help!
I could swear I just answered this...

I'm really sorry.. there's a crap load to look through on here and I discovered the problem while at work so I couldn't read all billion messages. Thanks, I'llc heck out your post.

After upgrading, my XDA's Today plugin 'Inbox' doesnt
notify (via popup or bold letters) any received sms/messages.
Any idea why??
:x
I installed the tweek from this site that allows for name integration of SMS.
I did this before going away at Xmas. I did not receive messages at all. One hard reset later and it is all working fine again.
SMS are very important, I receive a lot. So loosing them is not nice!!
I take any advice on such matters with caution now......

I use SuperAlert to give me repeating alarms for calendar and task notifications. Unfortunately, it doesn't do SMS notifications, and I miss some due to just not hearing it or being away from the device. Am I the only one?
i WISH
it's the most annoying thing about this phone. you never know you missed a call unless you actually go look at it.
i want it!!
I used to miss SMS's too, but found a neat little trick (and it's free too)
Just go to settings, notifications and select Inbox:New SMS Message, then tick Flash Light and set No limit in the duratins box. (I've done the same for missed calls myself) and if the light is flashing (three times as fast as usual) I have either a missed call or a new SMS
Work great on both PocketPC 2002 and Windows Mobile 2003

They issue I am having is with text messages. Before dcd 4.1.2 I ran dcd 3.3.4. Under 3.3.4 say a friend of mine sent me 3 text messages. My message icon would so show three. I would open the conversation read the messages and close out. Then my message icon would show zero.
Using 4.1.2 when I open the conversation, read the messages and close, the message icon reads 2. So I have to open and close the conversation 2 more times to get the notification to go away. I absolutely hate this.
Can I change this with a registry hack or do I just have to go back to 3.3.4
I have my text messages set to threading. (IM style)
This is an issue with the new Win Mo core, not DCD. It's in all roms built with the new core. Hopefully there will be a work around in the future tho, cause it drives me nuts too.

With 3.3.4 not 3.2.6 sorry

a) this has already been asked numerous times. search before posting
b) there is a thread for 4.1, why are you making a new thread?
c) you dont have to open and close 3 times. just scroll up and let the cursor pass over any bold contact name. the contact name will become plain and you wont have messages listed. if you get 3 texts, open it, scroll up to the first new text, and then close out after.
i'm using dcd 3.2.5 currently, and in Phone Suite and the Messaging today plugin it displays that i have 1 unread SMS, but i do not. even after clearing the SMS directory completely, it still says there is one unread. the main messaging screen does not indicate any unread messages, however if i go into SMS and click the folder drop down, inbox has a (1) next to it. pocketbreeze also does not indicate any unread messages. is there a registry key or something i can edit to fix this? please note that this is not the issue in dcd 4.x.x where messages need to be scrolled over. thanks guys
EDIT: got it. seemed to be a combination of a registry edit and fixunreadcount.exe.
An "hidden" SMS seems to be present in my phone. Having deleted all the received messages, as soon as the first SMS comes in, the count begins from "two", even if there is only one message to read of course.
I have the last official ROM installed.
Any advices?

While in your messages, Menu>Settings>Traditional Mode.
This should display all of your messages individually. You can tap the message and click delete and it will stop showing up.
I have already tried, of course, but this did't work

and soft reset.

your solution worked for a slightly different problem for me: i could see 1 message only in the messages tab but the messaging client inbox was empty. i switched over to traditional mode inbox and then deleted it.
The .exe file worked perfectly. Thank you very much!
