Does this happen to anyone else ... When I send a txt message it says I have a new one in my notifications and I have to open it to clear it out? ??

Have you even looked at any other threads in the Q&A section? It's been talked about before.
Sorry been looking. I guess I will look again.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

As stated above "I don't have any secoundary text apps"

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.

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?

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 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 have a huge and annoying messaging problem on stock. Here's my problem. I text somone and the conversation is formed. When they text me back their message pops up on top of mine and says I've received it at a completely different time! When I text back, the message appears directly below my other message I sent... and so on.. So the messages get all jumbled up! This is REALLYannoying.. HELP?
ANYONE????!!!!
Which ROM are you using and which messaging app?
I'm using stock ROM (2.1 Update 1 with sense).. with the default messaging app.

You know my problem? or not?
Ok. One thing to try. Go to 'manage applications ' then delete data from messages app. This shouldn't delete your messages but you may want to back them up first. Then restart your phone. That is all I can suggest, unless you have thousands of messages, in which case I' d suggest to delete quite a few. Other than that I don't know unless its a carrier problem.
Just thought of one more obvious answer. Go to date and time settings and see if 'network provided values' is checked

Aw man. It didn't work Too bad. Thanks for the help anyway. I'll continue my searches.
The time stamps for the incoming text messages seem to arrive at completely different times (FYI)
Anyways if you could offer any further help, it would be greatly appreciated.
I solved it.. I installed SMS Time Fix by Matthew Precious (from the android market) and it fixed my problem.. Thanks for all the help though
Is there a way to cancel an SMS during sending? I used to be able to go to the outbox and stop the message before it sent (Accidental, bad message, sent to wrong person, etc). However, I can't seem to do that on this phone. Is there any mod or app that can allow me to possibly long press a message while it's sending and cancel the sending? (I get ****ty reception where I'm at, so it usually takes a couple seconds before the message sends).

Why don't you try selecting the message as its sending and when the menu pops up you hit "delete". Usually works for me when sending mms.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
I tried that. Sometimes it works, but sometimes it still goes through. Also, sometimes I don't necessarily want to delete the message, but rather edit it, especially if it's a long message :l
Haven't gone through that yet so don't know but that's the reason I always type the body content and do fill in the recipient last.
Handcent has an option to confirm before sending.
doesnt take long at all to send a sms message. but if you do delete it before it goes through, it will get canceled. But only have a limited time. Cant edit or delete a message thats already sent/recieved.
Quick fix: Dont be so fast to hit the "send" button
Go SMS pro also has the same feature. Let's you confirm before sending a message. I'd recommend moving to that or handcent if you wanna be in more control of your SMS app. Plus the ability to swap themes on the fly is always nice too
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA
Confirming every message would be annoying. Plus, even if I had that functionality on, I'd grow to just confirm without reading. I usually catch errors when it's being sent (my luck ). Also, I tried deleting a message that was being sent the other day, yet the person still got it? Was I just not quick enough or...? Because I saw the little green arrow still indicating that it was trying to send the second I deleted it.
Proof read? That's what I do, not always 100% but it helps. Hopefully you find a solution. Until then, proof read ;-)

I personally can't vouch for that method of deleting-while-sending to be true. I used to do that a lot and sometimes it worked. Others it didn't. And confirming every message can be pretty annoying lol. Other than that though there isn't much else to do other than pay a littleeee bit more attention before you hit that nice shiny send button

Probably a stupid question, but how do I edit the declined call text messages? Where it sends them a text if I decline the call. I'm using Viper 1.2.1
Second that. Under "Phone settings", "Other settings", "Decline calls" is checked, but there's no way to edit the text (and when I decline a call or simply don't answer, I don't see the option to send a text either.
Has HTC done away with this?

I know I can make my on text, but usually im driving. I'd rather just have a pre-made one that I can select. Or even better, just one that is default to my liking for my job.
Still on stock, and the option to send the text is definitely there (after i decline the call), but i can't figure out how to change the defaults either.
In settings under call, i only have the option to decline calls with text, but nothing else about it. I'll keep digging.

Somewhere there is a file with those four or five pre made text replies. If we can find it, I suppose we could edit it.

Took me a while to figure this out. Hope it helps!
To add or edit a Quick Text, you will want to go into the messages application. Then select an existing message thread and act as though you are going to send a message. Make sure you tap the 'Add text' box and bring up the keyboard. Then hit Menu at the top and select Quick Text. Then hit menu again and then you can add/edit/delete a Quick Text. You can then set up a canned message to use.
