[Q] Hanging message - how to get rid of it - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hi,
I have a problem with an sms hanging somewhere in the system but invisible in messaging. It happened when a message arrived during messaging freeze (sometimes happens but that's another story). Now I have a new message notification (green "1" mark in manilla) but the unread message can't be seen in messaging, so I can't delete it. When I delete any other message the notif. disappears but when another message arrives it appears again.
Is there a way to get rid of it? Maybe go to some database where the message probably is and delete it?
Thanks for any help.
btw. Multiple soft reset did not help.

I found the appropriate database with pocket mechanic but there is no message that I wouldn't see in messaging. So where the heck is the notification coming from?
Thanks.

Text Messages (1)

Anyone else having this problem? I deleted all my text messages and the header still says Text Messages (1) as if there is 1 unread one... ????!?!
Not sure exactly...When I get a text and read it but don't want to delete it stays on the topbar. I have to go back to text messages page on the panel and scroll on it again. It will usually then remove it from the topbar. If you don't need the text message just delete it and it also is removed from the topbar on homescreen. I don't know if thats what you are having issues with but that's not the end of the world for myself.
I'm using WM6.1. It has the threaded text message strings. After i go into a message/conversation and read the text message it should remove the (1) from the top bar signifying no unread messages. I've read all my messages and even went as far as deleting them all but the (1) still persists!
Did you try to restart the phone like turn it off and back on... Also check your MMS maybe you have some message that was unread in there... Check it out and get back if this does not fix it...
Go to your registry and check the value there, look in : HKCU\System\State\Messages, and look in sms or wherever and check the count, if at 1 then set it to 0.
Also, remember the message is not "Read" if you just view without responding.
if you dont respond, you need to <- out of it....not hitting the home key or cancel or whatever.
that is the only thing that works for me.
I have a similar problem, when I view a text message it is not marked read immediately, and home screen shows the mail icon. To get over this problem, I do the following: after reading a message, I press Menu->Close instead of just pressing the BACK button.

nooooooooooooooooo i can't seem to do anything to get rid of it! i delete all the messages and even after that reset the registry key stated by showaco and after a restart it still shows [email protected] ARGghghhghghg
Could it be an unread message stored in another folder such as Drafts or Trash?
Unfortunately not
I checked each folder and went as far as emptying them all
Listen, i try to explain how to do:
go to : Start-settings-accessibility- sms inbox threating -and make it :disable

HTC TF3D displays 1 unread text message at all times.

I have a Tilt 2 and am running the stock ROM with TouchFlo 3D. The unread text message indicator is stuck indicating at least one unread message at all times, even if there is not. If "n" is the number of actual unread text messages, then the phone always displays "n+2" as the number of unread messages.
I deleted all my text messages, hoping this would fix it, but even with no messages in my inbox, the phone continued to indicate 1 unread message.
Not a critical issue, but a little annoying. Is there any way to fix this?

There's a cab to fix that floating all around these forums, just search for "unread message count fix"
Found and fixed. Thank you SirPhunkey.
i had the same problem.. took me another 45 minutes to read all the posts and find the program that actually worked. everybody was talking about outlook email doing it which didnt matter to me..
here's a link to the page that has the program

I have the same issue, although I'm up to 4 unread messages. I've had to use that fix way too many times to fix this issues. I'm using T-mo stock 6.5 and I thought that the update was supposed to FIX this issue! I've noticed this problem occur when my messaging box has a lot of messages in it. I was trying to delete old messages once (which took over 30 minutes to complete - way too long) and thats when two of the unread messages appeared.

Message

So my phone says there's a message but i just deleted all my messages and the notification is still there. Does any one know how to get rid of this annoyance?

text message notification

Ok I have Handcent I love using it. But every time I get a text I get a Handcent notification and a normal Android text message notification. How do I get rid of the normal text message notification. I dont use the nominal text program I only use Hancent. Thanks for all the help and sorry if its stupid question.
open stock message program. menu-settings-scroll down to where it says received notification and uncheck it.
Messaging>Setting>Notifications.
Thanks folks, bad case of the stupids for me.......

SMS Disappearance

Hello
So I have experienced my first "bug" with my GN (or maybe it's ICS?)
I was browsing in chrome when I noticed at the bottom it said "message received" in an overlay. As you do when you get a message while using the phone.
What didn't happen was it didn't scroll through the message at the top of the screen in the status bar. I thought it was a bit weird. So I opened my messages and nothing new was there. It didnt make any sound either, so I thought I was crazy and moved on.
As I was having a conversation with my partner at the time, she messaged me a few mins later wondering what my response was and I told her I didn't receive anything at all.
This is quite concerning. The phone most definitely recognised I got a message but it didn't show up. She said she sent 2 messages. Has anyone else experienced something similar?
We're both on the same network if its even possible this could be a carrier issue.
The "message received by <phone number>" toast message at the bottom of the screen is the other party receiving one of your messages. You turn this on in Messaging > Settings > Delivery reports. This will show next to the time stamp of every sent message in a thread the SMS icon with a green check mark over it whenever the message is confirmed to be received by the other party
You not receiving messages is a different issue. Try installing something like "Ghostly SMS" to see if your phone is losing SMS messages. I haven't heard of this as an issue in ICS yet.
