When I get a text message I unlock my phone, and on the bottom where the text message icon is it'll display the # of texts you received. Even after reading my text message the number never clears itself and goes away it'll still have a number next to it saying I have a text.. Anyone having this issue??
Doesn't happen to me, but I am using Handcent instead of stock messaging app. Try going to applications and clearing the cache/data for the messaging app.

I have seen this issue on other phone forums via search, but I seem to be the only one with this happening on a Vibrant. Every time I get message the yellow icon comes up on the notification bar but then the old school white message icon comes up too and the drop down just says I have unread messages.
I tried turning off the notifications in the messaging options but that removes both the yellow envelope icon (I want that) but not the unread messages (white postcard). Even after "read" the messages it stays there until I hit clear notifications then pops back up when I get a new reply.
Anybody have any ideas on how I can fix this? I am rooted running the stock ROM with the recent OTA update.
I also checked the SIM for any stored or saved messages and at one point deleted every text I had.
It sound slike you have another msging app installed - like HandCent or something.

Hello.
I have problem with unread sms notification (not in "top status bar") bellow big clock on lock screen. I use GO SMS app, but it occur in Chomp SMS, SMS Popup and not in Handcent. When I receive SMS it normal show notification text, I open sms, notification in top status bar dissapear, sms it's read, but when I lock screen there is still info shows one unread sms. It only dissapear when I open stock SMS app. In stock app sms of course is read.
I have turn off notifications in stock SMS app.
How to fix that?
Android 2.2 rooted, but on 2.2.1 problem still happen.
Same here, this is the reason that i have returned to Handcent...A bit resource hog but it integrates in system much better than any other sms app out there.
Same problem here, its really annoying.
I wonder if removing the stock sms app would help, but i'm affraid it would still be the same, but then without any way to get rid of the unread message on the lock screen.

I never send any MMS, so that would not be a problem.
But would removing the stock sms application cause other problems, like being unable to send/receive sms's, or perhaps something totally unexpected?
I have removed stock sms app about two months ago, and I don't have any problems - mms work correctly. But You must enable option in important tips in go sms - "Stock app removed".
Install both handcent and go sms... only keep the notifications of go sms.. thts it u dont get any sms notifications on your lockscreen.!!
Before any one chews my head off, I have searched the site and Google and a can’t find an answer
I am trying to see if there is way to stop my IM messages (Whatsapp,skype, google talk) from displaying the message content in the notification bar.
When I receive sensitive information I don’t want any part of the message to be displayed in the notification bar. I only want to notified that I have a new message
I have tried turning off the notifications on the notification bar but then I never know when I have a new message.
Handcent does this brilliantly with text message but I can’t seem to find a way to turn it off for Instant messages
Can anyone help?
Guess there isn't an app for everything
If there isn't a setting in the individual app then I am not sure its possible...at least in a simple way.
Contact the app developers.....for SMS I know handcent has the option to turn off the text in the notification bar.
Yes, there aren't any settings in the individual apps. Damn, So no solution then
anyway, thanks for taking the time to reply.
Hey,
I have a strange problem, sometimes I get an SMS, it pops up in the notification bar, but when I enter the message app it isn't there?! I am using Go SMS Pro, but the HTC Sense message app is still installed. It mostly happens to the same persons but they're aren't blacklisted or anything..
It's really annoying, first I thought I just randomly hit the delete button when using popup screens, but that is not the case
Btw I am using the VR31 ROM
I have used the stock SMS program, Handcent, and GOSMS. All three are great, however this is my issue. Whenever I receive a message, via Handcent or GOSMS, I get the notification (in the status bar as well as a pop up notification). However at random times, the message I received does not appear in the message thread, when ever I get into my inbox. I will try to describe it as clear as possible. For example, I receive a text from Bob, I get the notification w/ a popup window. The message says "whats up?!" and I quick reply. But when i go into the inbox to view my thread with Bob, his most recent message to me does not show up, but my reply to him does. I have tried turning off the pop up notifications, same thing happens. I get the status bar notification, but when i open my inbox, no message appears. IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY. I hope someone has experienced this. Thanks in advance.
