Unread SMS - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Earlier today I got a notification about a new message from "(Unknown)" with no text. When I pressed the notification I only got to my inbox, so the actual message didnt seem to exist.
When I got another message (a real one this time) it said I had 2 unread messages but only the real one was showing in the inbox.
Somehow I've got an invisible unread message. How do I fix it?

Help! Error Synchronising SMS Messages??

i swapped my sim over in my tmobile vario 3 when my battery died. since then i've not been able to send any texts. i can recieve them but it wont let me reply. nor will it send a new sms if i create one from scratch.
any ideas as to what might be causing it?
anybody know what the problem could be? its effectively dead if a cant text
What is the exact error message you get when you try sending a message and is the SIM capable of sending SMS with other phones?
Did you check if message center number is entered correctly?

Hmm. For some reason its started working again. Basically, under the message list in the small bar where it says "SMS/MMS 3 Items, 2 Unread"
it just displayed the message "Error Syncronising" and a pop up alert read "Your message cannot be sent"
Not sure how it started working again though.
When in the message inbox, press right or left arrow button. It navigates to Outlook mail area.. Probably you tried sending SMS thru outlook account

Phantom text message counter

Hi all,
I tried to post on this before and see if someone had any ideas on what to do. I have a wing, and a few months ago, the text message counter started showing a phantom message indicator so even though there were no unread messages, on the today screen, it would show 1 unread message. Nothing I could think of made that go away. Now, today it did it again, so there are now 2 unread text messages showing on the today screen but there are not 2 unread messages in the inbox. I've even tried deleting all text messages so that there is nothing in any of the boxes (in, out, saved, deleted) and it still shows 2 unread messages. It's annoying and makes it difficult to get an accurate count when I am just glancing at my phone.
Any help would be appreciated.
Jamie
search for something called "FIXUNREADCOUNT"
it's a simple exe file, you copy over to ur phone and run from the phone that will fix these issues.

PPCPimBackup and TF3D mail count

Hi,
I just flashed another ROM onto my device, and restored the call history and SMS message box with PPCPimBackup. Ever since, the mail count (not the SMS count, the mail count) in my Touch Flow 3D interface says I have one unread message.
I defined no mailboxes yet, and it still says one unread message. If I define mailboxes and send myself email, I have 2 unread messages instead of the actual 1 unread message.
Is there a way to reset the unread mail count in the Touch Flow 3D interface?
Thanx
I had this. Only way was to delete the email account and readd it.
I tried this, but that did not work (even crashed Manilla ).
However, when deleting the mail account, it switched to my Outlook mail account which I don't use. But right there, there was this "Welcome to Pocket PC Outlook!" message. That was the message showing up as unread!
So thank you for the tip, it indirectly lead me to the solution

sms questions

Hi once again,
Since i disabled sms message from displaying in today screen, i dont get any notification anymore. I only know that there is a message if i open the sms inbox folder.
Is there a way of keep that message display disabled, but receiving notification aswell as the numbers of messages to be read?

Text messaging notification [not sent notification]

Can anybody tell me what program I can use for my text messaging notification? The problem I have is that when I read the text message, it still shows as new. Meaning I have to go in to the inbox and highlight the actual message to get that number off my text icon.
I've found it here a long time ago, but I couldn't find it. And I did search but all I kept getting were post about disabling the sent text notification.
thanks.
i think you may be talking about kaiser tweak. you can do a search to find it because that thread is buried somewhere
I think he may be talking about threaded SMS not setting the text to "Read" when you enter threaded SMS.
I noticed this a little while back. I've just kind of gotten used to it. If I receive a new text message, I'll open it in threaded SMS. it won't be set to "Unread" until I exit threaded sms by pressing "OK"
