I apologize ahead of time if this is an easy problem, but I haven't been an Android user for a very long time.
Everytime a new text message comes in, there will be a notification stating so. After I read the message and even after replying to them, the notification is still there and won't go away until I hit clear.
Is this intended for the notification to continue to notify you even after you've read the text? I actually have "Received notification - Show notification in status bar when messages are received" turned off.
Thanks in advance.
Are you using stock sms or something else?
troy
am having the same problem and I and using the stock sms. When you open it from the status bar and then you go to sms it still shows as new until you open it up again.

When you open msg's from notifications panel,widget,app.drawer or switch to them via holding home hit the menu and go to all msgs then hit the menu key once more and chose mark as read.

This has been a common HTC issue since my Touch Pro 1 days...too bad we don't have root to fix it.
My icon on the top won't go away even when I click clear. as soon as I shut the screen off and back on it pops back up until I go into the messaging app and then the conversation

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
Don't see how its a common issue when mine operates as it should

Same here. My Evo4g didn't do that, stock or rooted. I deduced that its a bug, and am hoping it will eventually get fixed up.

If you read through the thread you would see that multiple people said they didn't have the issue. I don't know exactly what causes it but it isn't happening on all phones.
I got it here too. Didnt have the issue on my OG EVO

I know I know google it.. Well I have and no one has the same thing.. That I can find anyways (There is an ocean of posts) every time i get a text message i get two notifications from messages. I have searched and I don't have any secoundary text apps and its not my rom cause my friend has the rom to and doesn't have the same problem. Below is a screenshot hope this helps and thanks for your time
Also when i click on the NEW MESSAGE(S) nothing happens it just closes the notification bar
Looks like you are using handcent. Turn off incoming notifications in your stock messaging app.
Blundered from my Dunderbolt
As stated above "I don't have any secoundary text apps"
Please read my whole post
You definitely have some other app that is notifying you.

I am using Virus Senseless so I doubt its htc sense.. But like I mentioned my friend has the same setup as me but doesn't get two notifications.
I had this same problem when I was using Thunderbolt Kang and I did a full wipe so I am not sure.
The icon looks like the handcent notification. I know you said you don't have another sms app installed, but that's what mine looks like.

Try turning off the default SMS app and see if you only get a single notification.
Also, try clearing the defaults on the built-in SMS app, then try texting someone through Contacts app. It should give you a list of SMS apps to text with. You would be able to see the other SMS app there.
That looks like a general inbox notification for an app that groups things like gmail, email, sms & mms.

I did this just now and no luck the only thing I had pop up under contacts was google voice so I uninstalled it and had no luck with this either. Still got 2 notifications..
The only other thing I have that affects my systems is ringopro but I uninstalled that too and had the same problem.
not sure why you haven't thought of this, but why not just click the notifications from the bar and see exactly which two apps they direct you to. turn notifications off in the one you don't use. problem solved?

"when i click on the NEW MESSAGE(S) nothing happens it just closes the notification bar"
I can only open the text from the one with a smiley face in it
I found the problem at a long and tedious process of wiping and restore each app at a time
Come to find out Beautiful Widgets 2 was causing it... Well thank God I was able to find it and thank you guys for still pointing me in the direction of it being an app... Who could have guessed
I had a problem similar to that. This is what I did.... I went into setting for my sms app. Turned off all the notifications than restarted my phone and than after booted up go back into settings and turn them back on. If that doses work back up all your apps and such than restore your phone.

It's pretty much a bug and only appears when you use the drop-down notification feature to check your txt messages.
Its not in my drop down its on my message icon on my homescreen and in my app drawer. And I just did a search and found it for just about every other phone but the 3vo. Does it say how to fix it?
Sent from 3days in the future and still no dang S-off !!! WTF
By the way you described it, it sounds like you have send notifications turned on. Go into messages. Then do "Menu", "Settings", "Notifications". Now look to see if you have "Sent notification" checked. If so, that's why you are getting a pseudo message: it's acknowledging that the message was actually sent. Uncheck it and you're golden.

Yes I have the same problem,
This is different from the "sent notification"
No its not checked. I don't have sent notifications on. Lets say I send you a message and I back out it will say I have one message and when I open it, it is just the message I just sent. Its not in my status bar but the app itself. It does this with all message apps. I tried handcent and go SMS also and does it with them too.
Sent from 3days in the future and still no dang S-off !!! WTF
Mines does the same thing....ghost messages and my sent notification was never on.....HTC took this 3d thing out of hand, our texts are in 2d now smh
That's weird. It's normal to see your own replies (in white stickies) when you check, so that might be normal. But if your "Messages" icon is showing a "1", maybe it's just fouled up. Have you tried dragging the "Messages" icon to the trash and then re-adding it from the full app list? I had to do that once when my VoiceMail icon started fouling up with the "number read". Maybe this is the same kind of thing?
Mike
It's not just the messages icon, but inside the actual application.
Yes its in the app too and it sucks so you never know when its a new message lol

OK. I'm being dense here because I can't see it and it doesn't happen to me, but... your outgoing replies are always in the application. Your replies are in white and the people texting to you are in blue. Are you saying it is marking your (outgoing) reply that appears at the bottom of the text thread as "unread"?
Mike
Exactly... And it says you have a new message in that thread until you go into it, and read your own message that you just sent...
Are your (outgoing) messages in white? Reason I ask is that if it is marking them blue, it means the phone has an identity crisis: maybe your profile is messed up and it doesn't realize the message actually came from YOU.
Mike
Yes, they are in white.
I tried updating my sprint profile, but It's still doing the same thing.
I'm pretty sure this is just the way sense is. You will need to download a 3rd party messaging app to get around it. I remember the 4g being this way too.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
I've noticed this only happens when you bring up messages app from the notifications bar, then reply.
I guess you could try backing up your existing messages (if they are important) and then use Menu, Settings, Applications, "All Apps", locate "Messages" and then click "Clear Data". Maybe if some settings got corrupted, that would clear it. I'm sure you already tried powering down and pulling the battery for 1 minute, then restarting.
Mike
I'll try the clear data. I've tried everything else.
Every time I receive a picture in an MMS I get another message from "Anonymous" no subject. I open it and it say "message not found" I receive the message multiple times until I delete the original message. This happens in the stock messaging app and in Chomp. Uninstalled Chomp and it still happens on stock.
Rooted running UnNamed v1.0.1
Bump for some help. This is really annoying
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
Does this happen when you try to send a message to certain people, or just one person in particular? I wonder if maybe it's a read receipt notifying you that it was delivered? I'm on a custom ROM so I can't check. Try going into messaging, hit menu, then select settings.
Otherwise, maybe it's a carrier issue.
No Trojan this happens when I receive picture messages. From anybody on multiple carriers. May be an at&t issue. I think this happened on my Infuse too but don't remember if I ever resolved it

It happened to me on my Atrix. I found if I ignored it and didn't open it, it actually deleted itself. As far as I can tell, it's related to read receipts. Unnamed Rom doesn't offer the ability to request them and I don't think Stock did either but I also don't use a 3rd party messaging Application. Try turning off Read/Delivery Receipts on your device and see what happens.

From what I have been able to tell, it is a Carrier Issue AND read receipt issue.

Happened to me today, we both use GoSMS but I think she has enabled delivery receipt.

I love how people are complaining that this was brought up again in another thread, which in fact led it to being locked even though there is no answer on this board. It is really annoying getting those messages. I have searched "blank anonymous", "blank message", and just "anonymous". Only two threads come up that are related to this issue. This one, and the one that was just locked. So if anyone truly has an answer to this issue and doesn't worry about trying to look cool by insulting users, please provide the answer, or at least point us in the right direction.
Thanks
I found a way that worked for my phone. I'm using ChompSMS and I would always get those and they would keep popping up.
All I had to do was open Chomp settings > SMS & MMS Network > MMS Network Settings > set "auto retrieve" to UNCHECKED.
I cant confirm that this will work (especially if you dont use Chomp as default), but it did work well for me. Good Luck

I've tried that. It doesn't do anything. Once I download the mms I'll get the anonymous message.
I've had this issue when I was on my Captivate. I tried flashed a few different ROMs and even went back to stock and the issue was still there. It was one of the reasons why I upgraded to the GS2 before my contract expired. However, the issue appeared on the new phone. The real problem was that my SIM card was messed up. Once they replaced my SIM card, everything was working fine again.

Has anyone else noticed that on the stock messaging app, the timestamp on messages is wrong? I just realized what it is showing, it is showing the date/time of the last MMS message, not the last message of any type. If I change the view (at the bottom) from "All Messages" to "SMS/MMS", it updates and shows the correct timestamp, but if I go back to "All Messages" (which it defaults to every time i leave and re-enter the app) it shows the wrong timestamp again.
Is this something everyone with the DNA is experiencing or just me? Is there a fix? If not is there some way to make HTC aware of this (or is this an android problem)?
Thanks!
this has plagues sense phones since they originated. there are a few fixes I think but ive grown so used to it I dont pay it any attention anymore
yeah, hit the "SMS/MMS" tab and its the correct time. All Messages it where the problem lies.

Correct, I was aware of that (I mentioned it in my first post), but thank you anyways for your help. I was hoping there was a way to make all messages correct also (or to default the messages app to start up on sms/mms tab).
Not a huge deal, but an annoyance that doesn't make any sense. Is there any way to make sure HTC is aware of this issue? Maybe get it fixed in a future update?

Its not that the text messages have the wrong time embedded in them. It'd that the messaging app is displaying the time of the most recent mms, not message on general, in the thread view.

Hi all. Does anybody know how to fix this issue? It's driving my girl crazy.
She gets a picture MMS, views it, and then hits the 'back' button to go back to her messages. But instead of going back to her messages, it opens the Gallery! WTF? LOL
She says it's been doing it since the most recent update, but I remember her talking about this months ago. So I think it may have been the first update.
Can anyone help with suggestions? She's on the Stock ROM.

Questions should go in the Q&A forum. I would think that somewhere along the way when your gf chose to open a pic in mms...The S4 asked her what app to use and if to use only once.. I suspect this now the default and I'm not sure how to reset the default.

Sorry about the wrong forum. I realized that a few minutes after I posted.
Ahh, good call. Maybe if I go to Manage Apps and clear data in either Gallery or Messages, it'll fix the problem. The question then is will she lose her texts or photos in doing that?
