What's up with the msg icon? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I bought my new HTC One Saturday and I can't remember if it was like this the day I got it or not but the icon consistently shows a number beside it as though I have a new msg. Even after clearing my cache deleting all msg threads and rebooting the number has refused to disappear. No root or custom rooms yet so this is real stock. I'm beginning to wonder if this is something of a fluke or maybe something ATT put the to mess with my head. Could someone please provide some clarity about this.

Shouldn't show that if you have no messages. Do a factory reset if you're afraid to root, unlock, and use custom roms.

you serious? every time people have problems the solution is always to just factory reset or unlock and wipe and custom ROMS
@OP, select every thread in the messaging app and scroll up and down, that should clear any unread messages. if not then backup the messages and delete all the threads. also try sending a message to the phone and reading it

Weird thing is I just rebooted to see if that would fix it and it did but now it won't show up at all. It's alright though,is rather have it this way than the other.
And dude, your suggestion was just as bad. I already told you in the op that I tried that already.

Yes I'm serious. If nothing else worked for him then that's the answer.

There could be a simple explanation for this
Is the phone set to store the sms on to the sim?
If it it remove all the sms on the sim and change the option to no sms on the sim
mssg app all mssgs, settings, text mssgs, manage sim card mssgs - it should read no mssgs on the sim card.

Samsung Captivate Black Screen when placing call HELP!!

I love my captivate but I've been having this issue since I've had it. Everyting on this phone works. Its never been dropped. Or water damaged. But when I place a call the screen is black. The notifications bar dispays stuff but there is no caller id or dialpad. Sometimes when the person Im calling answers It comes on but not always. Never been rooted. No apps installed. Tried hard resetting. Any ideas? It is'nt the screen timeout. Not the sensor that dims. Some stuff shows up but not the caller id/dialpad area. Any thoughts?
Also thanks for all the knowledge I've gotten over the years from you guys.
Are you sure that its not just your proximity sensor?

It's a safety measure so when you're making a phone call your face doesn't hang up on the person try putting up to your face and pulling away your screen will come back on

I see in your mini-profile to the side there, you are on Verizon and didn't think this phone was available for Verizon. Did you have to some sort of unlocking to the phone?

If you're running a Gingerbread ROM then this is normal behavior first call after reboot, just "swype" your hand in front of the proximity sensor (here). However, when the phone is at the ear, the display will go dark every time you make a call.
You are on stock. Take it back. Why worry about hacking it to fix it if it's stock? From now on post questions in q&a. This is not the area for questions.

Damn flame away! I'm so sorry. Sincerely sorry op. Was on my phone and I guess I forgot what section I was in. Again man, completely sorry for that.
Thanks for pointing that out dru1226.
I know about the light sensor but...
this is something different. I've never seen this on any phone before. The screen goes black right when I dial out and stays that way. I cant hang up or press any keys. I can hear clearly and the person on the other end can hear me.
I have to do wait until the person on the other end hangs up. The only thing I can do is hang up.
Once I do everything goes back to normal.
Btw, thanks for the help ( in advance). And to answer you james.arroyo, I do have verizon as my primary carrier but I have a secondary at&t line.

HTC Vivid and 4GLTE in New York City

Well they hit the switch on December 1st of this year, been getting a strong LTE signal since then. Been keeping an eye on the data going in and out of this phone. I have noticed that during phone calls the network switches back to “4G“ and when calls end the “LTE“ reappears. Does anyone here maintain an LTE signal during phone calls by any chance?. Or is this just preliminary tower behavior for testing?

That's how LTE works on AT&T. When on a phone call it switches back to HSPA+. I think it will always be like this but I'm not 100% positive. Never been an issue for me. It switches back and forth very quickly and I hardly ever use data while I'm on the phone.
Well it seems LTE coverage is expanding in the NYC area as of today. I'm now getting LTE signal in the boroughs. Bronx and Queens to be exact.

They have stolen my phone!!!

One month ago I went to Belgium and my SGS disapeared from my pocket!!!
I had to stop my simcard. I lost every hope to find it again but when I went on the market webpage I saw that my old SGS was still signed in with my Gmail account!!! But now with a different carrier name: PROXIMUS. There are weird apps that i've never installed who are displayed on my google account!!
Maybe there is a method to find my SGS with my google account??
Does anyone have an idea??
Google usually sees the network location !

Did you have any lost phone app installed? If not, make sure you install one on your replacement, phone locator pro is pretty good
Sent using TCP/IP
There's one on the market that you can install after it's been nicked. If you search where's my droid, then check related apps, you should find it. It's a pay app but I can't remember its name
Try logging in to you google account on market.android.com and find a spy program of some kind and choose to install it, it will be automatically installed on the phone and you might be able to find enough information to track it.
Found it! It's called plan b by lookout. Good luck!
Thank you very much i'm trying those apps now I think it's frightening this guy may use my account!!

Help identify unknown app "10029" using data!?

Has anyone ever seen an app called "10029" use data on their SGN before? I went to check my data usage the other day and found this unknown app (see screenshots 1 and 2). I tried googling it but found no other mention of it. It shows foreground and background data so supposedly I have actively used it but I obviously don't recall any such app. I've restricted the background data since I found it. Could it be malware? If so, how can I go about removing it?

On a slightly related note, I noticed "Android OS" (see screenshot 3) has been using a large amount of background data over the past few months (it got up to ~700 mb last month!). I've disabled Google back-up/restore settings as some other suggested, which is when the usage amount started to taper off, but it's still using several mb each day and I can't pinpoint what operations is using it since there's no options to show what process under "Android OS" are actively using data. Any suggestions how to identify the cause?
I woulnd trust that either.

Yes.Also on stock rom (see signature). I've disabled install from unknown sources too.
Then wipe (factory reset) and flash the rom of your likings again..
Perhaps it sounds a bit drastic, but i woulnd want an app with an unknown name running on my device.
Id start all over, just because it smells fishy.

You should try to freeze it with Titanium Backup and check if the phone works well, then install Root Explorer, go to /system/app and look for an app called 10029 then simply remove it (delete).

Thanks but it obviously doesn't show up on TB or in /app under 10029, I would clearly remember installing something like that and would've looked for it first before posting here.
Get afwall and block the app from using Internet.
Or else wipe and restore your apps individually

Disable screen on for SMS

I flashed rooted lollipop yesterday and I've got something simple I can't figure out. Since the upgrade to lollipop, my screen turns on briefly whenever I receive a text message. Before lollipop, I'd just get the led light if the screen was off, which is what I like. I've adjusted all the options, turned off message preview, turned notification while locked on/off through sounds and notifications, and everything else I can think of. The only two outcomes I can get are zero notifications at all for SMS, or normal led and vibrate with the screen turning on when received. Any ideas?
Is this not the setting you're looking for?

So then it appears you are running Lollipop through the muniz_ri method...I suggest checking out TMS5...awesome ROM, super smooth. Much better options than stock, and more to come.

Well I didn't realize they were on stock from the beginning, or obviously I wouldn't have posted and put up a picture, duh. Posting telling me I made a mistake after I already realized I made one and corrected it was completely uncalled for, but thank you teacher, guess I'm clearly not as smart as you are
Thanks for all the help. It certainly seemed like a stupid simple checkbox somewhere, just left out of the stock rom I guess. First time running stock in a long long time so I just assumed I had missed it somewhere.

Yes, it must be something TalkingMonkeys did to the apk itself to make the option appear. If you like when I get home from work I can upload the messaging apk and you can try swapping it for the one on the stock Rom... It may work but I would do a backup in FF first on case it causes crashes or force closes.

Thanks. I was having an issue with a memory leak on the 4.4 rom I was on and since I was going through the trouble, I wanted to go ahead and move to lollipop. At the time, there weren't too many options and the new TM rom wasn't up yet. I'll probably just ride with stock until the TM rom settles in and move over to it. Thanks for the offer.
