Read every message individually, showing 1 unread on app shortcut icon.
Deleted all messages, still showing 1 unread.
Any suggestions?
happens to me the odd time, leave it, it will go away. it's an odd but rare bug!
Leave it?
It's playing havoc with my OCD!!
I had that a lot. Then I started using the Gmail app and updated it from the Market. Since then I haven't had that problem.

No, I'm talking about the stock sms messaging shortcut icon (as found in the bottom toolbar as standard).
what version of the play you using?
like gsm cdma?
happen to me also but it the stupid visual voicemail from verzion lol kept showing up as a txt
i can confirm that bug on 4.0.A.2.368 UK Generic. Using GO SMS Pro but stock messaging app icon shows a number 1 on a circle. good thing it's not on my homescreen. just use a 3rd-party messaging app and replace the stock sms app icon instead. you won't be bothered anymore, as i bet you barely visit your app drawer as i do.
I got the same problem on mine, v annoying!

Im getting 2 diffrent notifications for 1 text message ! i have tried disabling notifications in my default message app and still another one comes up and it says 1 unread text message then when i view it it still on the notification bar but now says no unread messages... anyone know whats going on? i really hate getting 2 tones for 1 message!! pleasse help!
Sounds like you are using a 2nd text application like Handcent.
Both applications will indicate a new message, Android and Handcent (or whatever). You have to open up the Android application and disable notifications.
Are you rooted, if so, I recommend using Titanium backup and freezing the stock messaging app. I think the free one will freeze/thaw apps , but if you are rooted the paid version is a must have in my opinion
You have to go into the stock messaging app and hit menu > settings > and uncheck the notifications.
i did all that i figured it out it was the stupid beautiful widget pack2!! grrrr!! but thanks for your guyses help!

kinda like my wife telling me to do something, once is never enough making her very annoying...lol
Friend just got a new Samsung, and we installed Handsent... She was getting 3 notifications for each sms... Took 30 minutes to get it worked out.
Glad to hear you got it fixed.
Once in a while the SMS icon on my launcher dock will stop launching the SMS app and will start launching whatever app I was using before that. Anyone else experiencing this?
I'm attaching a youtube video of it (pardon the half assness of it)
+1 This has happened to me also. Not just the messaging app though. Happened with Google Music, Wordfeud, any app really. I have to back out of all the apps (close them all?) to get it to stop. It's only happened twice.
This has been happening to me for the past couple of days now. For me, closing all my background apps doesn't help. The only way to get things working again is to reboot the phone.
Yes has happened to me once. Rebooted to fix it.
Also have had an issue when composing a SMS message and then wanting to delete it before sending. I delete the text I typed and when I go back in the app the text is still there. Anyone having a problem with that?
happened here with various apps too.

Looks like most people that have had this happen have Verizon/LTE versions. Anyone had this happen with a GSM version? Just curious if it may only be a bug with Verizon's side.
I have a GSM Galaxy Nexus and I've had this problem as well. Only thing that fixes it is a reboot.
The stock msging app is constantly freez and crash after I imported all my text messages from iPhone. Is this because I imported too many? or is it because of a corrupt import?
Go SMS Pro works without a problem though

It's because the stock app doesn't hide any of the older message and attempts to load all of them whenever you enter a conversation. Go SMS only shows more recent ones and requires you to press a button to load older ones, as an iPhone does.
I'm not sure what Samsung managed to do to the stock app, because on vanilla ICS/JB, Google's stock app doesn't have this issue nearly as soon as the Samsung app does, even though it is also loading all of the messages simultaneously.

Anyway to get new messages notification to show up in Lock Screen with Go SMS Pro or any other sms app?
I am having this issue for a couple of weeks now, i am getting no notification for text messages. No sound, no indication. Even no msg number appears on the msg icon when it suppose to show the number when msg comes. The only way i know the new msgs is when i go to inbox then i can see the new msgs came and then if i went back to home screen without reading the new msges then msg icon shows new msg numbers and on the top notofication bar.

Little Clarifications Please:
1) Using CUSTOM ROM or Stock ROM?
2) Using Stock messaging App or any others?
I'm assuming you'r using default stock messaging app in STOCK ROM.
May be try opening Messaging, Press Menu key and go to Settings, under the settings there will be notification settings. Check those.

I'm not sure how is this then.
May be Check whether it's similar to this.
Also, Check you notification volume and Also make sure the there is some ringtone selected in these apps as well.
Since Go SMS works fine i think it's ostly an issue due to the setting in Stock Messaging app.

Force stop and Clear data in Application Manager. May be that would help.

nothing happened after that either.
Just wanted to see if anyone else has been experiencing the same thing. I haven't experienced any lag with this phone whatsoever except for the stock messaging app.
1) Sometimes when I open the messaging app, the preview of a text messaging thread may be from many hours ago and then "refresh" itself to the most recent text. Essentially when I open the app, the preview shows a much older text message and then after a couple seconds will show the most recent one.
2) Sometimes when I push send on a message, it will take a second before the text is actually sent so if I continue to text, it will add on to the previous message until sent.
The only way I've found to correct this is to switch to the "SMS/MMS" tab, which seems to correct the lag, but of course any time you push the back button out of the app, it goes back to the deault "all messages" tab when opening. I also tried holding down the tab titles and it brings you to a screen which it almost looks like HTC was going to give the option to remove other tabs but the boxes cannot be unchecked.
Anyone else running into these issues? Find a solution?
Yeah ive noticed the same weirdly enough I don't feel lag when using sliding messaging app or textra

I don't recall having any of those issues but for me what happens is when I open the message app, in the list of people I've been texting, it shows their phone number for a second, and then it switches to their name. And it only happens once in a while. Like right now, it's not happening. Weird

Same here. Kind of annoying, but I had so many problems with go sms and hand cent on my rezound not sending group messages correctly. I'm scared to change and lose a working "group messaging app".

Yup, same here. Definitely a little annoying.
Try Verizon messages. It's awesome and group messages is flawless

I have these two issues.
This stock HTC Messages app automatically closes when you back out of sending a reply message, so it doesn't refresh the preview list like previous HTC phones on a reply. On the same token, it appears that it completely quits the Messages app, requiring you to load the names from the Contacts app when you open the Messages app without replying to a message. If you press Home rather than Back, when you open the Messages app again, it loads the messaging screen with the contact you most recently messaged, the person to whom you just replied. If you open the app and send a message, then press Back, it loads the list again, and everything is all good. It's all very odd.
Well glad to see I'm not the only one. I had tried Handcent, Chomp, etc with nothing but lag and other issues. Thanks to the response from NSRpxndxhou, I tried Textra and actually really like it. Best replacement text app I've tried.
I like how HTC's stock messaging app looks, but it ended up simply being too slow. I switched to Textra, enabled the dark theme and never looked back. Silky smooth performance, even with giant threads.
I am in the middle of an email conversation with the guys at Textra. I love the app. But my group messages are not working correctly. Those guys are great. Within one day I got an email with an update to try.... make that two updates. Just got another one while typing this.

Textra does seem nice, but there are a couple things I would miss from the stock messaging app. I like the ability to search ALL your text messages to find a specific text. I also prefer to have the time stamp on each and every text like the stock application does. I also don't like how it shows the contacts phone number below their name.
I would likely use this as a stock replacement if they were able to integrate all those features.

You may want to consider going into messaging->settings->general and adding a text limit (default at 200). When you do this you will notice your messaging to be a bit more zippy. This is because its not trying to open all of your old previous messages (which can be in the thousands).

I had a Messaging app issue when I had too many messages, which was fixed by deleting them, but that whole "reloading" issue seems to be separate.
Even with a few messages, it tends to reload upon reopening the Messaging app. Really weird why it does it...

I agree. I go through 5-6k texts a month and if I didn't set a limit my stock messaging app would laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag.

Had this issue as well, found out that if you go to the stock messaging app settings > MMS > then connection settings, this gives you the APN. Copy that URL and paste it in the Textra MMS settings. Mines worked flawlessly ever since. Not experiencing any lag like the stock messaging app, and have noticed no difference in features.
