Overlapping new text message icon

I'm using Handcent sms and everytime I get a text it'll show the icon on the notification bar like it should, but there seems to be another semi transparent icon overlapping it.. its not a huge deal but its kind of bugging me Does anyone know how to fix this or what's causing this to happen?

Be sure you have the stock sms app notifications turned off if you use Handcent notifications.
If you already do, look through Handcent's options.
If you can't find the culprit, email the dev team for Handcent.
turn off the message count in handcent and see if that clears up the icon ghosting (looks to me like the white message count number is the issue) or try a different color notification icon in handcent, see if it has the same issue.
Thanks it was the message counter.. I turned it off in the handcent settings and now it displays perfectly.

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.

SMS on Lockscreen

I want a way to stop my SMS from appearing on my lockscreen, I tried to find a way to turn it off. I am a privacy freak and i don't want my messages appearing while my phone is locked...can anybody help me?
You can have it hidden it'll just say new message but that includes for notification bar as well its in the settings of the messaging app
Yeah I don't understand the sms notification. I wish you could just disable the lock screen notification. It doesn't function the way I wish it did. It also makes all other sms widgets on the lock screen pointless.

[Q] Annoying Lock Screen Notification For Messages and Calls

I was wondering if anyone has found a way to remove the notifications from the lock screen that come from the stock messaging and dialer apps?
I want to use the stock sms app but the notifications take up an entire widget panel when I have an unread message and I simply prefer to have my clock of choice always in default.

Text Notification Over Lockscreen

My phone used to display incoming texts over the lockscreen (using Textra and Chomp) but for some reason this has stopped. Now the text will only show for a few seconds or not at all. Anyone have these issues and have a fix? My phone is not rooted and is stock.
