My phone shows I have 1 unread message. It shows both on the sense ui sms button, then on the 'Inbox' under the folder select.
Problem is I cant find any unread messages. Nothing is highlighted in the usual way, and I just can't get rid of the notification.
I've tried everything from turning the phone off, to opening every message grouping in my inbox..
Any ideas?
Did you check your deleted items?

It's called "ghost message"....search and you'll see that that so far it's an uncurable illness on many ROMS

Thanks for the info.
That's kinda lame.. Oh well, I was looking to upgrade to a new rom anyway...
This is not uncurable. Search google or xda or modaco for a tool named fixunreadcount.exe, launch and you'll be fixed. send pm if you don't find it.

I have this problem since I installed new HTC message version..

Yes, there are plenty of threads on this issue and 'fixunreadcount' worked for me when it happened (just the once so far). I have attached but can't remember where I found it so sorry can't give credit where it's due.
couldn't it also be due to the SMS soring problem that HTC has a fix for on thier website? I know that drove me nutz for a while until i found there was a fix for it.
I just recently flashed mikrunny's v1.01 and ever since I did so I keep getting this random text message from the number 6250 and the contents usually say either vzwnmn:1 or vzwnmn:2. At first it didn't bother me but now its starting to annoy me. Any idea of what it means/is.

Its was am idea Verizon had to let you know you had an email...turned into a bug. Forgot how to disable it lol
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
There are two ways to disable it. The easiest is to go into the message, push menu, and select block messages. I think it will ask you to set up a password, so do so. It will then say no messages found. Press menu, block list, and then press the plus button, and add 6250, and press okay. Then back out, delete the message, and you should never see another one again, until you flash a new rom.
The second option is to go to the my verizon website and go to the sync options and turn it off, but I always have trouble finding it and it doesn't stick between flashes either, so the phone way is just as good.
Thanks for the help. I love this community. Probably the most helpful out there

Just randomly appeared. What makes me concerned is how there is no app name or option to view the sent data.

Not sure if you want to do this or not but usually when you hit Send Email, it pulls up a bug report through your Gmail account and you can send it from there. Inside there, you'll be able to see where that email is going and do some Googling.
There are always LBE, Avast,...that have firewalls and SMS/MMS blocks. If it didn't say SMS in the screen shot, then I wouldn't be too concerned. But it does and that means that you are probably constantly transmitting somehow. But to where............ Find that app that is sending SMS back to the Mothership and uninstall it ASAP.

Thanks woodrube. I clicked the "send email" button and NOTHING happened. ( I did it with all radio communications off ie airplane mode just to be safe) and since nothing at all happened... i fear. So i just rebooted the device hoping it wiped out any outstanding task something had to do. I did open systemTuner and couldnt find anything that looked suspicious under the task manager. If it comes up again after my reboot im hard reseting.. i dont care Thanks for the recommendation. wonder if anyone else will post with this same notification thingy. Oh thats also whats weird, it showed up in my notification bar and clicking it brings up that popup.
Guys, today after school I saw that all the statusses of my contacts were error: blablabla. I tried to refresh (in whatsapp) with no luck.
After receiving the following message, and after forwarding it to 18 ppl, i refreshed again to look if it would work.. It did work. The statusses of my contacts were back. I am just posting this here for you guys to get the statusses back. I am NOT trolling, I tested it on my phone, my sisters phone and my dads phone. I know the blue icon and red icon doesn't make sense without an app update or something like that, but the point is, after forwarding the message i got my statusses back!!( of my contacts!)
The message:
Before you read this, go to your contacts and look at everyones status! Should say error: status unavailable.
Hello everyone, it seems that all the warnings were real, the use of WhatsApp cost money from summer 2012.
If you send this string to 18 different on your list, your icon will be blue and will be free for you.
If you do not believe me see tomorrow at 6 pm ending WhatsApp and have to pay to open it, this is by law
This message is to inform all of our users, our servers have recently been very congested, so we are asking your help to solve this problem. We require our active users forwarded this message to each of the people in your contact list to confirm our active users using WhatsApp, if you do not send this message to all your contacts WhatsApp, then your account will remain inactive with the consequence of losing all their contactsMessage from Jim Balsamic (CEO of
Whatsapp) we have had an over usage of
user names on whatsapp Messenger. We
are requesting all users to forward this

from the Whatsapp team”
WhatsApp is going to cost us money
soon. The only way that it will stay free
is if you are a frequent user i.e. you
have at least 10 people you are
chatting with. To become a frequent
user send this message to 10 people
who receive it (2 ticks) and your
WhatsApp logo should turn Red to
indicate a frequent user. Am sorry had no option!
And check now the status of every individual contact is showing :
Status : error
-------
Copy and paste from before till error and send it.
Good luck.

Well ironically my contacts have "Error: status unavailable" on all of them, but no problems sending and receiving messages. Its probably just a server error.
Well, I just did a refresh and all status's are back to normal.
LOL.
Deleted these craps from my WhatsApp inbox and all my status were back.

This. I had the same problem (not that I noticed it to begin with) and a refresh fixed it.

Why do people fall for chainmail bullish*t? I still get tagged in pictures on Facebook saying to share this picture to continue to be able to use Facebook for free. Go look on FB page before logging in. "It's free and always will be" right on the homepage lol.
Or my PS3 inbox FULL of spam messages saying the exact same thing.
For future reference, anything that EVER says to share this with X amount of people in order to do this or get that is false. Nothing but spam.

For the same reason millions of books and websites and blogs and posts are written that are full of nonsense.
Hint: correlation does not imply causation.
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
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using xda app-developers app
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".

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.
