Hello all, first off Im really happy with my white s3 apart from this annoying 1 next to my messages. I know it means I have 1 unread message but I dont.
Even if I delete all my messages its still there. When I restart phone it goes untill I get new message then it stays again. No voicemail no emails nothink! when I go in to task manager and clear memory the 1 goes untill a message comes through then it stays even tho the message has been read. Does anyone have this annoying issue/problem? I have looked on the fourm/threads but cant see anythink regarding this. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm getting double text messages every time I receive a message. One in messages I can clear, the other one shows up in the notification bar but if I click on it nothing happens. Can anyone help me on this?
are you using handcent messaging app? i got this as well when i was using a third party messaging app. You have to turn the notifications in one of them off.
also this is a Q&A so when it gets transfered i will continue to monitor your question until i helped you solve it or provided as much help as i can.
No, just the stock Messaging app.

Disable notifications on the stock messaging app or freeze it. Problem solved.
Will I still get normal message notifications?
You won't get double notifications if you're just using the stock messaging app. You only get double notifications if you have GoSMS, Handcent, etc... without disabling notifications from the stock messaging app.
I am only using stock, I have never installed any other. AS far as disabling stock messagin notifications, I'm still getting a second notification and it will not go away when I open messages.
so are you rooted? what have you done so far with your phone?
did you format system partiton in clockwork recovery and wipe data and cache??
Rooted, installed bamf 1.6.3, overclocked. I originally installed 1.6.3, then a few other roms, always wiping data, cache, dalvik but then had parts of roms on top of each other so I did a fresh install of 1.6.3 to clean things up and wiped everything and now have double message issues.
I didn't format the system partition, I will try that
Tis whacked! Did you wipe/clear data before installing Das BAMF? Its almost as if you did a restore of an old messaging.apk or something, who knows. I'll let the experts take over as I'm at my wits end, especially if you say you have no 3rd party app. Maybe some notification app? :/
Have you tried rebooting? Try clearing the cache for the messaging application --- Menu --> Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications --> All Tab --> Messages ---> Clear Data/Clear Cache and then Force Stop. (Obviously will lose all SMS/MMS stored this way).
I'm re wiping everything to see what happens this time.
Re wiping everything again fixed it, thanks all
ok, i am not sure how exactly to fix your problem without another wipe but i bet if you wiped your phone and sd card multiple times and make a fresh install of everything it would stop the problems. I would wait for a few more answers and then maybe popping into the bamf tweaks thread in the themes and apps forum to see if anyone knows about the problem.
It does sound like you have a few extra pieces overlaping again, i would really consider the nuking of your phone to set it back up correctly
dont have to wipe everything
i had same problem when i tried to freeze the stock messaging app. all you have to do is go to settings, applications, manage, all, then choose the messaging app and clear data, and cache. works perfect for me since then
Some one had the same prob few weeks ago and it was an app. Maybe beautiful widgets

Reboot?

I would backup sms/mms's. Then go into:
Settings->Manage Applications->Running->Messages and clear Data and Clear Cache. Then restore your mesages.
Hi Guys
Im just get a samsung galaxy s2 this week and am having a small problem.
Ive looked around for answers but cant find any. Ive just remembered how helpful this site was a when I had my HD2 so thought id ask here.
The problem im having is deleting messages. In the messaging app you can press and hold on a thread then a box comes up asking if you want to delete. I hit yes and all the messages go but it leaves behind the empt thread to that contact. Ive tried deleting through thr menu, hand sent and clearing the data and catch from manage apps menu but noth seems do get rif of the empty threads. Any one had this problem too?
no problems here i hit the delete thread and it deletes
Just done a factory reset and the threads have gone. sent some new messages to test it and right back to the begining again. New threads wont delete. Only the messages inside the threads delete and the contact is left in the message app. Please any help would be great. Im tempted to take it back to the shop and get a new one.
maybe some thing in settings i carnt even replicate ur problem
Well I took it back to the shop and they gave me a new phone which worked fine. It wasnt untill I used backup pro to re load my apps and data that I noticed it was happening again. Must be somthing to do with this. After another factory reset and not using backup pro everything seems to be working fine.
Hi Guys,
I have made an youtube video which shows the weird sound i get when ever a sms message arrives, when ever i browse the sms message thread and when ever i send out or delete the message. I am using Cognition rom rc2 here is the link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_v693MX95-E Any suggestion is welcome. Thanks in advance.
I could be wrong but a lot of problems come from people installing rom and addons on top of each other. Always wipe data cache dalvik cache format system and anything else in came that clears old. Yes you have to reinstall and redo settings. Let us know if it works then. If not then use your warranty
I love auto correct cwm or came I don't know which never mind what I had to fix

I have looked at all the other threads and they didn't help me, my problem is that the stock messaging app crashes every time i start it, meaning, i cant do anything with messages. It started today when last night it was working. Im running stock rom, kernel, everything is unchanged, unrooted and using Nova launcher. The only thing i did today was Install BBS and disabled some useless Samsung apps like Joyn and such, but nothing mayor.
i tried clearing the data and force closing it, restarting, taking battery out, when i place the widget for messaging the app itself crashes, the widget stays and i see my threads, but when i open them, it crashes again...so honestly, i have no idea whats going on.
Thank you!!
!!EDIT: The messaging app doesnt crash anymore (no idea why it stopped crashing) but! I cannot send messages, it tells me always "message failed" also with other apps like GoSMS and HandSent, I cannot send messages. I tried going to /system/app and trying to install again the stock apks, but nothing, It tells me that Application Installation failed Rooted my phone just now, and still doesnt help.

what version of android are you using ? if it is based on samsung 4.2.1 leaked rom, you need to wipe data from CWM to use messaging app :good:
What happens if you go to call logs and swipe from right to left to send a message and then press the back button (should take you to the messages window)?

Im running 4.1.2. Aparently the messaging app works again now, I installed GoSMS and made it default. then i went back to the messaging app and it opens, but if i send a message it says "message failed" i retry, and then it crashes. However, with GoSMS, i sent an SMS to myself, and it seems to work.

I tried to doing that, I get to the message screen, but when replying it doesnt send the message, and crashes when I press "retry" however, with GoSMS it seems to work. Will ask other people today to send me an SMS and see, but an SMS to myself works with GoSMS but not with stock messaging
PS: THank you both for your replies.

believe it or not, somehow it works again...just on its own. I found on another forum and doing a Delvick cache clean up with Titanium backup would work! if anyone has a problem like this, that can be suggested. Other than that..I honestly dont know what just happened.
Thank you all for the help! I hope it doesnt come back again
Hi,
Sorry if this question has been answered elsewhere, but I couldn't seem to find anything on it, and everything I did find seemed to mostly be for Froyo on much older phones... The cause might still be the same but don't know.
Anyway, I recently installed SynergyRom on my Galaxy S4, I'm also admittedly a hoarder of text messages, and have 11,000 or so text messages backed up through sms backup & restore. I kind of like having them all on my phone (yes, I've read before that sometimes restored messages cause minor issues, but I like it *shrug*). Anyway, I restored the messages to my phone, and eventually when I was texting someone, the stock messaging app got a force close, after which, all of my messages had disappeared. I didn't think much of it, restored again, and then today when I received a text the app force closed again, and all my messages disappeared again. Any thoughts?
Hopefully the answer isn't just I need to be less crazy about saving texts, but if that's really the cause, that's it.. Anyway, help/suggestions would be appreciated. T hanks!
Waiting for the answer too. I did not root my phone or anything, just the original phone from store. Sometimes the messages in message app disappear. The phone shows "there is no message", the only thing I can do is create new message. After I restart the phone, the messages come back in the message app.
I know by default in the messaging settings that there is a setting check box for "delete old messages....seems after so many message it will delete from a certain point...something like 200 messages...deletes oldest first. Go in and uncheck the box...see if that helps. Having that many texts is nuts...your a texting border...

Yea, I know about limits, and that's definitely not it.. I've heard other people say the text messages come back after you restart, but I'm not sure if that's only if you restart right away without sending more texts.. Mine didn't come back after a restart at least, but I didn't restart until much later.. Thanks for the suggestions so far though!

I konw some data recoverying program will help to restore text messages from phone directly.
Not sure about retrieving from an app.
Visit CNET you might find something useful.
Was this ever solved? I'm having this too on STock mj7
