home screen shows no new messages - HTC Excalibur

I hope this is a new question, I did search and didnt find anything in excalibur. I have kavana rom 6.1 with sliding pannels home screen and threaded text messages. the problem is if I get more than one text or a text and an Email, then only read one, that leaves me with one unread message. but when I go back to the home screen it shows that I have no new messages. even showing no messages I get the 15 min reminder and have to go through each folder to find the unread message. This only hapens if I leave the home screen and go to messages and back to home screen. new messages do show up on the home screen when they arrive. but not after leaving one in any folder (email, mms, sms)

The notifications on sms, email, and mms dissapear when you open the folder, even if you have 2 new text messages, but only read one, and go back to homescreen , it will show no text messages on the homescreen. Same with email and mms, the moment you open the folder(email,mms,sms) and go back to homescreen, it will clear the notifications.

It appears to clear the notifications but if I leave one unread it still alerts me every 15 mins. The first time it happend it took me a while to figure out why i was getting the 15 min reminder.

also if you power off and back on while I have a message, it shows the new message icon at the top (envelope) but no messages in the sliding home screen.

Unread mail icon in topbar

I'm using Ricky's ROM with topbar, and I can't seem to get rid of the unread mail icon near the top left. When I look at the sliding panel that has missed calls, voicemails, unread emails, etc - they all say 0, but the icon won't go away. Something I'm doing wrong?

I get this sometimes as well. If you know what app created the icon (Outlook, TXT message, 3rd party email, etc), then you just need to click on it and then perhaps click on the message again (even if it is read). It *should* disappear after that.
You HAVE unread messages somewhere Double check....
Whenever you reboot your phone or turn it off and on, refresh the screen, whatever, it will not display any numbers or info next to your missed calls or messages. It is something stupid about the system. It doesn't keep track in a good way of missed calls or what not, but then again, I can't think of any phone that does this well. Most phones that have this type of setup where it displays your messages or missed calls in a panel, don't have the ability to save that info once the phone has been rebooted.
I know this happens to me, it's just the way things are. You just have to roll with the punches. Sorry.
If you are running CHomeWeather, when it updates the plugin, it reloads your homescreen, so this might be what's causing you this problem.
Sorry to jump into your thread with a question, but I've just bought my dash, and already enjoying v23.
my question is what is the 'E'? (is it email? how to get rid of it) and anyway to disable to up-down arrow in the top center?

Yes, you did. The "E" is for the Edge network ("G" is for GPRS.) The up/down arrow is for the JOGGR scrolling feature. You can disable it in the JOGGR settings.

it seems to be a threading glitch.
viewing the message sometimes doesnt reset the notification icon.
As stated above, quickly click on the text message feature in the panel and quickly followed by the end key. WOrks for me.

[Q] Pull Down SMS Notification Issue

I've been having an issue with this, and it's only started recently. FroYo has been installed for weeks prior to this (unbranded HTC Desire, so no mods or custom ROMS here).
I receive a text. The alert displays in the pull down menu. I pull down the menu, click the notification which then rotates the screen for a half second or so, opens the SMS app (default HTC messaging app), but it opens to the very first message in that thread meaning I have to scroll through around three hundred messages to get to the new one, or close the app, then re-open the messages via my icon which then jumps to the new message.
Quite weird. Any thoughts to help alleviate my head scratching?

Help - how do I stop HTC text prog coming up on screen

Hi,
I run Handcent for my text messaging but every time I get a text come in, the default messaging prog pops up on the screen.
How do I stop it coming up as I only want to use my Handcent program as it is much more pleasant to use..
Many thanks
Phil-w
go to htc text program, make sure you are not in any thread but just the start of the app, press menu go to settings and disable all the notifications.

MMS notifications not working

I've searched around for this issue and haven't quite found the same issue or a fix... My phone doesn't notify me when I get an MMS. SMS works normal - screen turns on, shows preview of message, LED light blinks, and I have a counter on the lock screen showing how many messages there are. Email and missed calls work fine too.
But when I get a picture message, the phone doesn't light up, no counter on lock screen, no LED - basically no indication that I got a picture. Until I open up the messages app and see the thread with unread messages. If i get a normal SMS sometime after the MMS, the lock screen counter has the total number of unread messages (SMS + MMS), but no other indication of a missed MMS before that. Same thing happens when I get group messages (i.e., from iPhone users), although they do sort correctly into a group thread.
Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? I've looked all over the settings in the phone and messages app. I have Go SMS installed for emojis and better group messaging, but I have all of its notifications off and the stock messages app set to default for receiving. Is there something else in there?
Running CleanROM 4.7 (although I've been having this issue for at least the past couple iterations of CleanROM).
Thanks for any help offered.
