I have handcent (which I prefer to the standard HTC text) but whenever I receive a text I get alerts for both the HTC text AND Handcent. So I have to open them both in order to clear the notification bar. I've been looking for ages to find a way of disabling the HTC text but can't find anything.
Also I have a virtually identical problem with emails. whenever I receive email to my Gmail account, I receive two notifications, one for Googlemail and one for Mail. Again, I have to open them both in order to clear the notification bar.
Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

you don't need to open the message, just scroll down (pull down) the notification bar and on the top right it should say "Clear" and that will get rid of any notifications you have got exept for music when its playing or any other program you've got running that has an icon on the notification bar..
hope this helps!

Switch off notifications in the "Messages" app (within app untick Menu->Settings->Received Notification")
Switch off notifications in one of "Gmail" or "Mail" (similarly can be done via settings in Gmail/Mail.)

Thanks for that, I have actually done so but I still have a problem when receiving texts. When a text comes in, I'm presented with the text displayed in the stock messaging box, I have to close that and open handcent to reply - which is quite annoying.
Any thoughts?

This is the answer because that's exactly what myself and many others have done. I can tell you that it works.
You must have unchecked the wrong options.

When you say the "stock messaging box", are you referring to the HTC widget? If so, you need to remove this. Also, have you ticked "Enable popup" in Handcent's notification settings?

I'm using incrom 1.2 and can't find a way to hide texts from showing up in the notification bar. I had it set to only show a generic message on a few other roms but having no luck on this one. Any ideas

Assuming you are talking about making text messages not show up in the notification bar, go to the messaging app, then press Menu, then settings and there should be an option somewhere in there

Yes just go to messaging > settings > and turn off notifications
the only problem with doing this is that you get no notification at all. i would like to hear the sound or vibration or however i have it set, i just dont want it show it on in the notification bar.
You'll need an app to do this, it's not built into the ROM.
Try out MyCalculator in the Market. There's a free version, works great and you can setup virtual SMS messages for certain contacts. When a selected contact send you a SMS or MMS, you'll get a notification but you can control the text and icon that show up.
There are others as well. Maybe check out Handcent?
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.
so i want to send a SMS to a group of people (broadcasting a party to a bunch of family and friends)
however i cant seem to be able to do it....
here are the steps i take.
open Messaging app
compose message (top right button)
then click on the "People" icon on the top right and start selecting people i want to send the message to and click ok....
at this point the "To" box is empty? how can i fix this?
also i quite often have the "notification" LED flashing even when i have no notifications. i use "Light Flow" and im not sure what i can do to fix that issue.... (i have all my light flow options so that it doesnt look like the regular notification flash but its the regular notification flash that i keep getting :S )
thanks in advanced
is anyone else having issues with sms badges not deleting after sms messages have been read? if there a fix? if i reboot it seems to clear it, but wanted a better solution.
anyone have the same issue or found a resolution?
i have this issue. this doesn't happen (most of the time) if i check a new message by pressing the "Messaging" icon. if i view new messages using the notification bar, the badge (number indicating new messages) doesn't go away.
