Are you using stock voicemail or a third party? I had this issue with voice, the icon was from a voicemail hung up on the carrier voicemail that never went to voice, when I cleared up the carrier voice mail it went away.

Yeah I'd already tried that as well, and doing the same to the contacts process. I read somewhere this is only an issue in the f/w version so hopefully the update fixes it.

Try different launcher Nova or Apex...

I think I might have found it!!! I had the same issue that frustrated me, spent a LOT of time researching all the forums and didn't find the answer but used my own initiative and so far has worked for me..
I really hope this works for other's out there and if it is a fix that Samsung adopt it as a fix rather than telling people to factory reset their phone..
Go to Settings > Application Manager > All applications (on the top).
Locate the "BadgeProvider" app, once in there select "clear data"
If it works for you please post your reply.

Thanks yourown
Fixed it 4 me :good:

Worked for me to , big thx .

you also may need to unchek "do not keep activities" under settings------------developer options

Yes this is the solution. Clearing badgeprovider did the trick!

(Solved) I'm getting two notifications for texts

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?

Please read from start
"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.

[Q] Anyone have issues with their Visual Voice Mail?

I got this text message upon someone leaving a voice message earlier today.
//ANDROID:xxxxxxxxxx has sent you a Sprint Voice Message. Call 408-970-0000 to listen. MMSN,15f50fe30,2986,V69EhxxlPpO//CM
Anyone else having this issue, and if so, what resolved it, if anything?
I also can't seem to get into my notification options when I call into my voice mail either. Not sure if that's common or not though.

Someone left me a message this morning, it worked perfect. I would force stop it, clear data from the app, update your data profile then reboot and see if it works.
I gave it a shot, but it didn't seem to work. When I call the number texted to me, it just asks if I'm on a voice SMS enabled phone, but doesn't give me any messages.
I tried the suggestion on the help page through the VVM app, to compose a message longer than 15 sec and send it to [email protected]. Haven't had an occasion yet to test it again, but once I do, I'll update this with another reply.
Strange though. Through many different phone activations over the years, this is the only time this happened. Really hope I don't need to do a hard reset. If I do, I hope it works. Not like I can nandroid or anything. lol
Sent from my HTC 3VO using XDA App
Still a no go... Can't figure it out. ; ;
Gonna call Sprint and see what their take is on it. Will report back.
i am actually having the same EXACT problem!! i have tried for force stop and clearing everything... still getting the same message!! and the VM never shows up in the VVM app!! Thanks for any help!!
I guess that's the only other thing I can think of is a hard reset. If that doesn't work I'm guessing it's something on Sprint's side would have to call in for tech support. I know when you boot up for the first time VM tries to provision itself and will say Voicemail provisioned successfully once data services are active.
Well... Just got off the phone with support. I had a very determined girl trying to help me out. Went through a whole bunch of stuff, but nothing helped so far.
Her and I both googled it, and found 2 things:
1. People switching to a phone that doesn't have VVM capability receive these messages.
2. They are command messages to tell VVM to download each new message when they come in.
Can't figure out why the messages are skipping the VVM app and going straight to SMS though.
I think I'm gonna try a hard reset later and see if that does it. Hope it does, because I spent some time getting everything the way I wanted it. lol
Anyone think of a good backup app that'll help cut down on the restoring my stuff time? ^^;
ADDITION: The version of my VVM is T.5.1.0.62 Is this the one everyone else has also? Asking just to cover as many bases as possible.
Had the the same problem called sprint after about 45 min of trying different things i had to hard reset and they reprovisioned and now it works perfect.

Hard Reset did it. It was A LOT more painless than I thought it'd be though. That backup and restore thing from google really helped out a lot in getting all my apps back. ^^
Also make sure you do not have Handcent's "disable stock messaging app" setting on. When it disables the stock app, the stock app can't get the 9016 incoming VVM messages before Handcent does and will cause this.

You're welcome. I doubt it but maybe the Hancent team can find a work around for this. It seems to me that if you disable it it's disabled but maybe they can block all incoming from the stock app except 9016, kind of like a reverse black list (actually they call those white lists don't they?, lol). I'd like to see that happen, but we'll see what the Hancent crew comes up with. I know others have said that other sms apps can do this or something like that, but I like Hancent better than all the others.
Anyways, glad I could help.
My issue's back again. Did have that setting on though, so I'll restart and see if that does the trick. ^^;

I've been trying to tell my wife that for a long time, maybe I can use this as proof, she keeps saying I'm not that smart.
But glad I could help, if I hadn't done it myself I wouldn't have known how to fix it, lol.
Use spc app to "block" the text messages but still get voicemails if using Handcent.
Just wanted to pass this on to you guys, as it has always worked for me. I had the Evo rooted with a custom AOSP rom and had used GV as voicemail then decided I wanted Sprint VVM back. When I made the switch everything seemed okay, but when someone called my phone and it went to voicemail it wouldn't let them leave one. Did some reading and finally figured out something that worked.
1. Stop the VVM process in running apps.
2. Clear the data for Voicmail under applications.
3. Dial *38 and call it as you would any other number( You should hear a few beeps and then it should automatically hangup) This has something to do with disabling call forwarding but will allow your voicemail to properly provision itself.
4. Open VVM and it should tell you that it has been provisioned successfully.
You should be good to go after this point, but if it does not tell you along the bottom of phone that it provisioned try this again but reboot before step 4. Some have also said that updating your profile and prl after doing the *38 helps.
Just thought I would share this as I read the comments about a hard reset when they aren't needed. I'm not to sure this would help with the issue described by the OP but hey its worth a shot instead of losing everything.
Confirmed: Fix Works for Epic 4G
Yep, I had Handcent Default Application enabled...clearing this resulted in Visual Voicemail back to normal.

[Q] Go Contacts missed call notification

I'm using Go Contacts as my default call app. Although whenever I get a missed call the notification doesn't disapear from the bar.
I need to open the main Contacts Samsung app for it to disappear or clear the bar.
I don't seem to find any configurations to change this.

bump... still no workaround for this?
I use Go SMS not Go Contacts so can't say i have this problem.
Best thing is to send an email directly to the developer regarding this, actually if you do a search there is a massive thread relating to GO and their various apps on XDA although you'd probably be better off just emailing the dev.

I have the same problem on Desire, redux2
Any suggestion?
Same here on HTC Desire S. It is really annoying.
Maybe this is the problem:
Since Android 2.3, Google prohibited third party application (i.e. non-system app) to make use of MODIFY_PHONE_STATE permission. One of the consequences is that all 3rd party phone dialer application can no longer clear missed call icon at notification bar. (Even at Android 2.2 or older, we need undocumented API to do so)

I had the same issue when I installed the Handcent widget and kept the stock messaging app. Here's what worked for me:
1) Go to Settings > Developer Options, and check "Do not keep activities". I'm not sure what this actually does (or how it affects other apps) so I unchecked it after it took away the message notification.
2) After a little while, the problem reappeared, so I found a free app called "SMS Cleaner Free" in the Play Store. That seemed to solve my issue permanently, as it hasn't reappeared since.
I'm not sure if one or a combo of doing both helped, but try it out and let us know.

Xposed LED Control Module not working

So I can't stand this 9 second wait in between blinks so I installed xposed framework and the LED control module.
I cannot get this working correctly? Anybody have this working successfully?
If enable per say the messaging one. When I get a message it does not work. If I turn the screen on, then back off, it will work...but obviously that isn't right.
Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks!
I just installed and activated it. I did not do anything special. I did select the apps to include.
Ya selected the apps and triple checked settings and couldn't get it. Only time it worked was how I explained above....beats me what's going on...lol
Well I finally figured it out. In the phones standard notification settings, every option needs to be checked. I had unchecked incoming calls and downloaded apps. So once I checked every option in there it is now working! Yay! Not sure why but that fixed it
Now I am having an issue. When I send an email using the Email App (Not Gmail) the "Sending email..." notification is stuck in the status bar.
Anybody else have this issue and if so how can I fix it

Not sure what would cause that. Reboot and try sending again.
