Messaging Notification Help

When I get a text message I get this notification in my drop down bar that when i tap on just takes me to handcent, but it won't go away without me hitting clear in the drop down bar. it isn't the handcent notifier either. i don't think it is the regular messaging.app notification either as it wouldn't open handcent and it'd go away when I tap it. Here is a picture:

Did you make sure that notifications are shut off completely in the stock messaging app?

Yeah when I first installed. I can't even find the messaging app in my app drawer now. This has to be some sort of other notification because like I said it sends me to handcent and will not go away without tapping clear.

I'm really hoping someone here will be able to help me with this. It is annoying beyond belief I even had to disable my handcent notifications to stop the double notifications. I can't even check the default messaging app because it seems to not be here anymore, i don't even see it in system/app(s)
thanks guys
Edit: Incase you have signatures off I am running Cyanogen 6.1
Edit 2: Found messaging. Forgot I had it hidden with launcher pro. Notifications are definitely disabled on it too.

Update on this: I've went through every recently installed program and can find NOTHING that indicates some sort of notification. This is *really* bothering me because if I just reinstall CM6 I can't do a full system + data restore with titanium pro because i'll just be in the same boat.

I had this same issue with Handcent, and uninstalled it. Never knew why it would do that, so I turned to chompSMS. No issue since.

So I restored to the 21st (2 days before it started happening) and picked just a select few apps to restore, without data and solve it. I guess my only option now is going to be to do a wipe and fresh install, but I just don't feel like doing that right now. Really wish someone would figure out an easier way to do this
Edit: Guess i'm going to go ahead and wipe and reflash. Will let you know the results.

Yea well I can comfortably say an apparently doesn't cause it since when it happened to me I hadn't installed an apparently In days.

Ah okay. I don't think it was an app honestly. My belief is that it was some sort of corrupted data file. After I wiped and did a fresh install and redownloaded all of my apps from the market it works just fine.

Faster SMS Backup?

Hey people. i've been using SMS Backup & restore to backup and restore my texts before and after installing a new rom. Problem is, this app takes a seriously long time, longer then i would have expected. Does anyone have a recommendation for something speedier?

I use backup to gmail, never notice it backing up and when I restore it will take a minute or two for 200 messages

Hold the phone. you can backup TEXTS to gmail?? I've already been using it for contacts and it's fantastic, but i didn't realize it would do texts. Could you let me know how to configure that feature?

Why not backup the app and data in titanium and use that? Normally works for me.

I tried that once and had mixed results. the first try worked wonderfully, the second try and i lost all my texts. I used the same procedure both times.

Hmm well I would say to try it again; personally never had a problem, it could have just been an isolated one time incident.

Yes, you can read all your sms, mms, from gmail too. It's in the market
Btw, backs up your call log with time/date and duration

GO SMS does a good job of what you're looking for, too. Very quick, too, I've found.

But that means it would replace my handcent as an sms client?

Yeh it would replace handcent as ur sms app, but all.ur texts will.transfer over into gosms, n then you could backup from there, personally I like go sms better than handcent, better look and feel imo

I'm a long-time user of Handcent, and I prefer GoSMS now... just looks cleaner, more options, updated frequently, etc. Try it, it does what you're looking for and it does a great job.

I use SMS Backup+ you can backup over wifi and change settings to when and how often you want it to back up your texts. All SMS and MMS are saved to your Gmail account. It will save MMS but not restore them at this time, I don't know if any apps do actually.

Edit. Doesn't restore mms yet

It will restore your MMS messages? That's cool, I didn't know that. SMS Backup+ will back up your MMS with no problem, it just saves them in Gmail. It won't restore MMS to the phone at this time. You have to go back in to Gmail to see them.

If you use adb a lot, I made a little batch file that I run that just pulls the databases and copies them to a folder on my computer-- takes like 5 seconds to backup and restore. This was on my Epic

it doesn't store it on the phone, it stores it as emails in your gmail, it makes a folder called sms and call log and fills them up with 1 email per message

My phones acting all glitchy..:(

First I noticed that my email icon says I have 205 emails, no matter what. I also noticed that my voicemail icon doesnt like to clear. All my ringtones were set back to default even my email and text. Even after resetting my email ringtone it still wont sound. My multi-window kept opening every time I hit the back button even though I had made it stay closed by pressing and holding the back button. I had to restart my phone for that to work correctly. While this was going on, my phones battery was really bad for 2 days. I didnt even use it, it was connected to wifi and the battery drained by 8 pm, with no use. Its 10:45 here right now and I have 80%, which is good. I noticed the screen flickers with white sometimes too when I hit the home key. I am getting really tired of my phone not working. There was another thing that wasnt working correctly but I forgot what it was, a restart fixed it though. Anyone else having problems? what should I do? I know it isnt much but I like my stuff to work correctly. I Am stock rooted. I am not on lk8.

No one has a response?

Sounds like something is borked from a bad download or flash. I would reset to rule out the normal issues. With all the sms and app backup programs out there you don't stand to lose much, if anything, by reflashing the rom.
Why the hesitation?
Rooting can be great but typically is to install a program (feature) or rom that didn't come stock. If you're doing this and can't afford to reset if a conflict comes up then it generally its a good idea to stay 100% stock and let sprint fix your issues [which they typically do with a reset]
If you decide to reset try sms backup, and an app backup program like titanium or app backup and restore.
Good luck!

mm-qcamera-daemon battery drain?

Okay so I'm posting this on behalf of a friend. He has a TMo Galaxy Note 3. It's stock and not rooted. He is having terrible battery life. This mm-qcamera-daemon seems to be the issue. On his phone, all he has installed is Facebook, Instagram, flappy bird and pages manager app for Facebook. Anyone know what could be causing it? I've own plenty of android phones and I never ran into this issue. Heres a screen shot. Btw, this is with the 10,000mAh ZeroLemon battery I sold him from my old VZW G Note 3. Thanks

Yes sir. Tell him to factory reset and then not load anything and see if it hangs up again. Wait before that tell him to go into setting then app manager then all then find camera click it then clear data. Restart phone. Look and see if it still stuck. Take a few pics. Check again. if it gets stuck again factory reset.

@BACARDILIMON You are the man thanks.
My wife's N900A was draining to empty in less than 5 hours due to this process running. I eventually scoured through Google and it brought me back home eventually to this thread LOL.
I informed her via text to go to application manager and find camera and also clear data. Issue resolved for her. She did not have to factory reset.

Question Phone reset...should I?

Helloe
Since I bought the phone, the reminder subfunction of the Google calendar app doesn't work. I get reminded of events but not of reminders that I add. Other users jave reported it as well, but we haven't found a solution.
OnePlus support recommended this
"Please try reset options this will not erase data. If you only want to clear app data and restore your device to factory settings without losing the data stored in the internal storage, choose the Reset all settings option in the Reset phone menu instead of the Erase all data option."
With a perfectly working daily driver phone that's rooted and otherwise working fine, should I follow their suggestion?
Does root get wiped? Will I have to reinstall my apps?
Thanks

Try clearing just that apps data. Maybe use another calendar app if that doesn't work.
Google apps are a pain. Constant firmware and software upgrades/updates just mean more of your time spent trying to learn and troubleshoot them. Gookill is a mess.

If you can uninstall then reinstall it try that. Check it's permissions and if it's able to run in the background. A Google search may give you more solutions; doesn't have to be that model or even brand as the same issues tend to happen on many different Androids.
If that's the only problem I would find another app to replace it. Not worth screwing up a good load over one insignificant app.
I use as little Google apps as possible. I use the native Samsung calendar instead. I use Gmail and Gmaps but Gmaps is a mess.

I tried to uninstall it but I was unable to. I couldn't even use titanium back to remove it for some reason. I should be able to remove it that way, right.
You have a valid point about not reseting over 1 app. Thanks

Indian warrior actually.
"It has pleased the Great Spirit that I am here today— I have eaten with my white friends. The earth is our mother— we are now on it, with the Great spirit above us; it is good. I hope we are all friends here. A few winters ago I was fighting against you. I did wrong, perhaps, but that is past—it is buried—let it be forgotten.
Rock River was a beautiful country. I liked my towns, my cornfields and the home of my people. I fought for it. It is now yours. Keep it as we did— it will produce you good crops.
I thank the Great Spirit that I am now friendly with my white brethren. We are here together, we have eaten together; we are friends; it is his wish and mine. I thank you for your friendship.
I was once a great warrior; I am now poor. Keokuk has been the cause of my present situation; but I do not attach blame to him. I am now old. I have looked upon the Mississippi since I have been a child. I love the great river. I have dwelt upon its banks from the time I was an infant. I look upon it now. I shake hands with you, and as it is my wish, I hope you are my friends.

This is what I get when I try to uninstall it using titanium backup.

That's interesting as it's not even present on my Samsung. With root permissions I would think you could uninstall it. However it may have dependencies.
Again I would bypass it by using another calendar app to replace it.
