I recently noticed that when I get a message from someone, the notification instead of displaying the correct "X messages from X chats" shows the wrong number.
For example, lets say I get 3 messages from 3 different chats, I see the 3 notifications in the notification area, but when I open the app I see the real "unread number " in the main tab, which is higher that those 3 new chats.
It's like a counting bug, not sure what happened.

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.

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.
Is there any way to turn on delivery reports but just have it show a check mark in the actual thread rather than showing in the status bar and playing an alert when its delivered?
Go into the messaging app, go to Settings > Text Message (SMS) > Delivery Reports
Should be what your looking for
As far as not having it in the Notification Bar, don't think theres away around that, at least that i know of
I like the fact that my iphone wakes up with new text messages and emails, with a pop up that shows the email summary or full text message...is there an app in the android market that does this..
i have found pop up notification apps, but they just show that you have an email, doesnt show the email summary or full text message in the pop up...

Go SMS pro has pop-up
I was used to notify with a popup 'Only when screen "off"' (a choice in Notification of whatsapp)
It worked well as when I clicked 'Close' or replied, the message would be read and would not be shown as popup and notified on notification bar.
However, when I rooted and rom-flashed my phones(HTC Legend and Samsung Note 2 N7105), the off-screen popup failed as if I clicked 'Close' or replied, the message would still be unread and kept notifying on the bar. (but no popup of the message shown when I wake my phone up next time)
How can I solve it?
***updated: same problem occurs with usual popup, not only off-screen one
