Hey guys,
I just have a small issue. There's this little arrow that appears before every text message in the status bar. I've tried clearing my messages, freezing all recently installed apps via Titanium Backup, and trying different SMS apps. After all these steps, I've found that the stock Galaxy s3 Messaging app is the only thing affected. If you can offer any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it!

NEVER MIND. Solved my own problem! Turned out I didn't fully uninstall some emoji font. That's what happens when you try to accommodate iOS devices into your social life.

Recently, my phone had an issue where the notification badge on an app icon did not disappear. This is occurring on the messaging app. I received two texts during the night which I did not see until the morning. However, during this time, an automated Titanium Backup was made (I don't know if it matters though). The messaging app constantly shows a 2 in the red bubble beside the app icon indicating unread messages. There are no associated notifications in the bar. Further text messages correctly appear in the notification bar but do not change the number of the messaging app. I have tried restoring a previous Titanium backup and even reflashed my rom (stock Bell rooted rom) to no avail.
I have tried googling this problem and many of the users report this issue on HTC devices but none of the suggested methods in those threads worked for me.
This issue is not "critical" as my phone functions correctly 100% of the time. It is just annoying to always see the notification badge.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello, I had this issue while using the stock ROM as well. The only resolution I could find was a factory reset. Since, I have not experienced the issue again. However, I am currently running jellybro so it remains to be seen.
When you performed a factory reset, were you able to back up your data and restore it or did this re-instigate the issue?

Try clearing data/cache for the messaging app?

Tried that already. Deleted app cache/data via settings. Also deleted cache and dalvik cache via CWM to no success.
If all else fails, I will resort to a factory reset and hopefully be able to restore everything via Titanium
OK so here is how I fixed my problem.
1. Made a full backup in Titanium
2. Made a nandroid
3. Factory reset via settings menu
4. Re-flashed stock root rom
5. Deleted Titanium backup data for Badges, Touchwiz, and Messaging
6. Restored via Titanium for all system data and other apps.
7. Problem fixed!
Hey all,
I'm a noob and do apologize if this has been answered or wrong section but I'm having a couple issues with my S3. I recently flashed the CM10 stable ROM to my device(love it) and did a restore of all my apps. I'm having issues with 2 of them that I can see.
First is Swiftkey. When I go to use the voice input method, it will allow me to speak and will give me the 3 options to put in the message body. but once I select the proper phrase nothing will appear in the text body. this only seems to be an issue when in a text message. it works in apps like facebook and google now
The second is with my TD banking app. If I go to transfer money from accounts or pay bills etc. the keystrokes don't appear in the text box. This only happens when doing a monetary value, putting my account number and password works no problem.
I've reinstalled the bank app and cleared the cache/data on both apps and still no solution.
I appreciate any tips or help to get this working.
Thanks!
My One V is rooted but running the standard firmware. Problem is the default HTC text / SMS app. It often refuses to fully open (stays half open on white screen) or takes a minute or two to fully open. In addition "unread sms" notifications are not correctly update (I open a message but it still stays 'unread').
I have deleted all but a hundred or so messages in case there were too many.
I have removed all non-stock launchers and the like.
Situation improves after a reboot but only for one or two uses then the SMS app is back to misbehaving.
Phone is fully up to date apart from last minor (22mb) OTA update - that will not install for some reason.
Any suggestions anyone? I can live with everything else on the phone but this fault is really annoying.
Thanks in advance...
I suggest you back up everything and do a factory reset that should help

Thanks for the suggestion. I want to avoid that hassle if I can.
I am trying now the "Chomp SMS" app instead of the normal one. No lag or hangs so far
Some say it's that one the best: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.gosms&feature=search_result&hl=en
Thanks, I might try it if the Chomp one does not work out. I tried the Go Launcher and some other of their apps before but was not too impressed. Not too fast, left many folders on the phone when un-installed etc.
So far the Chomp SMS app works fast and is easy to customize. It does show ads however unless I pay.
hey all,
just got my note2 7105T the otherday, and noticed an annoying issue.
i have tried searching google but everything i try seems to relate to the popup browser.
when you move and add widgets, a msg pops up telling you how to edit and resize widgets etc.
is there a way to disable and remove this message?
seems to be no disable help option that i can find, and it is really starting to annoy me when placing and moving widgets
Try clearing data for touchwiz. Never had that.

Go to settings/application manager/touch the downloaded application that has annoying pop-up, then un-check the show notification, clear catch, then proceed to next annoying applications.
Hi all!
Since upgrading to Nougat, my stock SMS app does not retain recently used emoticons anymore. Small issue, I know, but a bit annoying. They are there immediately after use, but as soon as I switch to another app, they disappear.
Anybody has the same issue?
Cheers!
As this behavior seems to be app-specific, I installed QKSMS and Textra, which don't seem affected. Both great apps, not sure which one I'll keep.
