When I get a text message I get this notification in my drop down bar that when i tap on just takes me to handcent, but it won't go away without me hitting clear in the drop down bar. it isn't the handcent notifier either. i don't think it is the regular messaging.app notification either as it wouldn't open handcent and it'd go away when I tap it. Here is a picture:

Did you make sure that notifications are shut off completely in the stock messaging app?

Yeah when I first installed. I can't even find the messaging app in my app drawer now. This has to be some sort of other notification because like I said it sends me to handcent and will not go away without tapping clear.
I'm really hoping someone here will be able to help me with this. It is annoying beyond belief I even had to disable my handcent notifications to stop the double notifications. I can't even check the default messaging app because it seems to not be here anymore, i don't even see it in system/app(s)
thanks guys
Edit: Incase you have signatures off I am running Cyanogen 6.1
Edit 2: Found messaging. Forgot I had it hidden with launcher pro. Notifications are definitely disabled on it too.
Update on this: I've went through every recently installed program and can find NOTHING that indicates some sort of notification. This is *really* bothering me because if I just reinstall CM6 I can't do a full system + data restore with titanium pro because i'll just be in the same boat.
I had this same issue with Handcent, and uninstalled it. Never knew why it would do that, so I turned to chompSMS. No issue since.

So I restored to the 21st (2 days before it started happening) and picked just a select few apps to restore, without data and solve it. I guess my only option now is going to be to do a wipe and fresh install, but I just don't feel like doing that right now. Really wish someone would figure out an easier way to do this
Edit: Guess i'm going to go ahead and wipe and reflash. Will let you know the results.
Yea well I can comfortably say an apparently doesn't cause it since when it happened to me I hadn't installed an apparently In days.

Ah okay. I don't think it was an app honestly. My belief is that it was some sort of corrupted data file. After I wiped and did a fresh install and redownloaded all of my apps from the market it works just fine.

Its something to do with gingerbread. It deleted gallery for me, then messaging and today it deleted the clock. I took it to Verizon and they are sending me a new one. Hoping it has Froyo on it. May be something you could look into if you want froyo possibly.
You have to do a factory reset from the bootloader to get it to come back i think. Thats what did it for me.

It has nothing to do with Gingerbread, but rather the Gingerbread update. Most likely, it has everything to do with Sense and an update HTC did to it.
Good luck getting Froyo on it too.
Just ran the update. I had already done a factory reset and my clock was still working by tapping the widget prior to this update. After the update my clock still works but I still don't have the clock app in my app drawer. So I still either have to tap the clock widget or search for the clock app to get to it. Haven't noticed anything different yet.

Yes you have to factory reset the phone after the GB OTA update. My market disappeared and gmail after the OTA. Factory Reset fixed everything except for alarm clock. One can do it through the settings>sd and phone storage.
The alarm and clock app will most likely be broken until HTC fixes it. They know of this issue. Factory reset will not fix this.
Update is rolling out now. Check and you'll have it.
I assume those running a rooted GB Ginger Sense ROM for example should avoid updating ?

Sent from my Dinc2.
Has anyone experienced this bug? I've seen it about 3-4x already. I can't pinpoint what's causing it. I think it might be due to the use of live wallpapers but I'll update if I can find the cause.
Anyway, what happens is when I wake up the phone, there will be ZERO icons or widgets on my home screens. There is absolutely nothing!
Also, when I open up the app drawer, there are no icons in there as well!
There are 2 ways to get it back to normal again. I can open up the task manager and open an existing app that way and then go back to the home screen. Or, I can reboot the phone.
Anyone else seeing this?
UPDATE:
It just happened again, screenshots:

If you're still on stock and haven't unlocked your phone, I'd suggest taking it back to the store for an exchange... Without rooting, the only answer I might be able to provide would be temporary at best. Besides, if this is happening out-of-the-box (i.e. nothing done to it by the user), then you've been sold a defective product. What you're describing is not normal behavior for this device by any means.

This happens when a game or app uses alot of RAM (Deadspace, Shadowgun etc) but it should redraw I'd it doesn't its odd.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Just came in to say something similar happens to me, but its only temporary, and only one icon. I started a thread about it back in December, but didn't get any responses.
It usually happens on my phone when:
a) I install a new app from the market
b) I exit an app and go back to the homescreen
Scrolling to a different home screen will make it reappear.
This is the only 'bug' I've noticed on my phone, and I believe it is related to software. I'm not returning my phone because of it, I'm just waiting for 4.03 and hoping it gets fixed...
BTW, I'm on Stock 4.02 rooted (LTE)
same issue with a tablet
I'm having the same issue that you have described with an ASUS Transformer tablet TF101. The only way to recover is as you have described. I'm downloaded Beautiful Widgets (none active) and will remove, but as you've noted that it didn't resolve your issue, I'm not hopeful that it will resolve mine.
BTW, I ran honeycomb on this tablet since October and NEVER had this issue. I received ICS as an OTA firmware upgrade three days ago, and have had this problem repeatedly since.

Yeah ive seen this too, happens anytime a large ram heavy task just ocurred. I think google needs to tweak in an update.
I can't believe I am actually asking this as a question. But I was neither capable to remove some 3rd party lockscreen from my gf's entirely stock SGN (rom-wise), nor did I manage to google for help.
Tried Go Locker and LockBot. I can choose a different Lockscreen but this new fella is now before the one I try to get rid off. So we actually have 2 lockscreens now. The 2nd one is easy to switch back off but the one below stays right where it is.
Here's what it looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, you can set the phone to lock pattern. Works fine except for the lockscreen that again succeeds all other lockscreens. It's always the last barrier before you can use the phone.
Please be so kind and let me know where else to look for turning it off
The lock screen app your using, need to be deactivated... if that cannot happen, go to settings----applications---find that app----open it-----and press clear defaults-----bang problem solved

Thanks for the reply. My girlfriend says she never installed a lock screen app (intentionally). I was suspecting the range of Go products but uninstalling most of them (after going through all of their settings) didn't help either.
The question is what app might have caused it. And why isn't there an app that lets you default to stock? That's why I installes Go Locker and LockBot in the first place.
Actually this is quite a tragic flaw in Android. My gf totally diggs her shiny new SGN but is totally pissed by this lock screen. She never wanted it. She hates it. Now she starts hating the phone. She said she wanted a replacement...

First I noticed that my email icon says I have 205 emails, no matter what. I also noticed that my voicemail icon doesnt like to clear. All my ringtones were set back to default even my email and text. Even after resetting my email ringtone it still wont sound. My multi-window kept opening every time I hit the back button even though I had made it stay closed by pressing and holding the back button. I had to restart my phone for that to work correctly. While this was going on, my phones battery was really bad for 2 days. I didnt even use it, it was connected to wifi and the battery drained by 8 pm, with no use. Its 10:45 here right now and I have 80%, which is good. I noticed the screen flickers with white sometimes too when I hit the home key. I am getting really tired of my phone not working. There was another thing that wasnt working correctly but I forgot what it was, a restart fixed it though. Anyone else having problems? what should I do? I know it isnt much but I like my stuff to work correctly. I Am stock rooted. I am not on lk8.
No one has a response?

Sounds like something is borked from a bad download or flash. I would reset to rule out the normal issues. With all the sms and app backup programs out there you don't stand to lose much, if anything, by reflashing the rom.
Why the hesitation?
Rooting can be great but typically is to install a program (feature) or rom that didn't come stock. If you're doing this and can't afford to reset if a conflict comes up then it generally its a good idea to stay 100% stock and let sprint fix your issues [which they typically do with a reset]
If you decide to reset try sms backup, and an app backup program like titanium or app backup and restore.
Good luck!

Is this with the most updated gmail app (version 4.3)? I haven't noticed this, but I'll send some more e-mail and let you know if anything gets held up.
go into manage apps and clear data for gmail. go back into gmail and let it sync and re-setup your gmail options, but you should be good after that, probably will have to re-do your last email you were trying to send.

Yes, this works for me too. I find it an unsatisfactory answer, though, because you have to redo your settings and re-type the hung email. And you have to repeat the whole process periodically because invariably it will happen again.
Doesn't seem to matter what version of the app you are using (I'm on 4.8 right now). Could it be result of (GASP) poor programming?
Worked for me! thanx
