If you have any other messaging apps, Hangouts for example, check in there too.
Thx for reply. Deleted all my hangouts, whatsapp, viber but still that notification remains

made it to 10 now, here is the screenshot with the message notification for a non existent message, when an sms comes through it then changes to 2, but back to 1 once I read the message. Hope someone can help.
It could be a bug imposed by the theme.

Tried different themes. Still no joy
from what i read this is a bug that persists throughout different android versions and devices, one recommendation is to install a 3rd party messaging app such as Go SMS and to read/delete the problematic message through it,
I cannot be sure that it's working as i cannot replicate the issue on my phone, good luck

Hi,
I'm using GO SMS on my mobile, instead of the built in SMS app.
The widget on the lockscreen (unfortunally; I'm not able to capture screenshots with this phone) shows me "unread messages count" because i dont use the built in app. How can i remove this widget?
Its enoying
Edit: Phone is rooted!
2nd that!

Since a great person told me the deal on how to capture screeners (hold home button and press power button - kawabong!), I can attach a screenshot:

I would like to know this as well >_>
you can freeze the message app with titanium backup.
sometimes the message on the lockscreen comes back though... then you have to defrost, open message app, and then freeze again.
Hope a better solution comes up.

Would be cooler if Go SMS could actually "take over" that widget and show its message count instead . Then it would actually be useful.
Would like to sort this out too. I guess a replacement lockscreen could work?
It does. Or you can uninstall or freeze the mms.apk in system/app/ - but I lost a few messages then, they dissapeared after I had read them. Tho all the messages from before I uninstalled was still there; so remember to backup both SMS/MMS and mms.apk before in case of emergency.
I have the past days found a setting in GO SMS that i can “check“ if the stock mms.apk is uninstalled, so that might have been the problem that I didn't. So try to toggle that checkbox.

This setting in GO SMS Pro. Have now removed stock mms.apk and enabled this setting. Seems like everything works great now.
Sent from my talk i tapeten
Heed that warning though...
If you remove mms.apk you will inevitably run into problems sending/receiving msgs
mine doesn't always show 'x messages received', 90 out of 100 times it doesn't show... My question is how to get it working again. I'm using the stock sms application
Getting rid of the message notification with GO SMS PRO.
I solved this in another manner:
installed widgetlocker and message center and created my own lock screen which BTW is nicer then stock.
Edit: here are a couple screenshots, the first with message center, the second with executive assistant
solution...
so,
after I tried it at CyanogenMod 4x... and the system crashed, I tried it at RC1 again:
deinstall with Titanium Backup the point: SMS/MMS 2.3.4 ... and enable the option "Let GO SMS handle incoming message ONLY" you will never see the 45 SMS or less... or more... at notification or LockScreen...
nice evening
I saw, that the work around is already posted... sorry, but it works great!
Wait does facebook PUSH notifications work on the captivate?!!!
Yes. My problem is not being able to turn them off.

ok how did you set it up!?! i cant access the facebook sync only the one for the feeds and updates...
I've never been able to get them to work.
Installed F Plus (now called Flow) and I never looked back. Photo tagging, notifications (pull, but functional), deleting of posts, etc.

the official facebook app is un-reliable for me
sometimes i get them, usually not.
i also have facebook set to SMS notifacations to be safe. they have been un-reliable too since i got the android.
sometimes ill get the same message from the app and sms or just one... or neither....
only notifications i've ever gotten have been messages and event invites. responses to status updates never give me notifications.
well went to the settings today in the FB app and checked notifications active and i never turned on refresh interval due to battery consumption but now i get my comments/chat/message all pushed to my phone...well its working for me but hope it works for you guys too!

Good afternoon to you all, I have some weird poblem. I was making a online payment, for safety the bank sends me a SMS with a verification code. While waiting for the SMS I went to the messages on the phone. This is what I see now:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And:
Restarting didn't help this morning, another SMS with verification code did not pop-up the other invisible one. Reset/flash only option left?
Thanks for all the help in advance

Maybe you can start with something less invasive: do a backup of your sms-es (oand whatever) with some backup app (e.g. MyBackup Root works for me very well, but AFAIR LG also provided some backup appy in the original rom) then open settings/applications/manage applications/all and look for the sms/mms appy. Click it and then try stopping the app and then clear cache and data. Then bring back your smses from the backup ...
BTW, do you use stock sms application or some third-party one (e.g. Go SMS Pro, or Handcent)?
Already tried that. Stopping the 2.3.4 Berichten (Messages) service. It's the stock SMS program by LG.
Clearing cache and such. Still the stupid "1" stays and the message is not removable. Tried selecting all SMS and delete it. It deletes all but the invisible SMS.
Maybe LauncherPro will get rid of this. Something to try in the coming days.
Hmm, LaucherPro didn't change a thing. So a reset looks like the only option. bah.
Got the same problem - FIXED
I got this same bug recently. I got it fixed by this app in play store: Reset Unread SMS by Kamosoft :good:
In my case it happened like this: I had stock SMS app open, because I waited Google 2-step auth SMS... well message received but nowhere to be seen After that every other message has been received correltly but that one was like a ghost - notification always said that 2 unread, but I can only find one... No soft resetting fixed this, but that app did find it instantly. I use Samsung GT-i9100 with Chameleon ROM.
I'm using the Messaging widget, on GB, but it shows only numbers, not the names of who send me which message
Is there any way to solve that problem?

Maybe a bug on Messaging App... Is there any problem with Contacts, I mean, can you see your contacts name on your list, this error shows only on Messaging App?

Did you copy them from SIM to phone and not delete the original? I mean do you have them in the phone and also in the SIM? Are they duplicates?

Nope
all contacts are facebook or gmail sync
Try adding a contact only for gmail, if that is possible...
If after doing that you get the names in messaging app it could be a sync bug or something.
Post tests feedback, please.

I'm on Tmobile. Don't have that screen. So maybe it's in the settings somewhere of your carrier?
Not on my Sprint variant.
Anyone has this problem or can suggest something? Anything? It's killing me.

You could start by providing more detailed information. What carrier? What third party apps do you have that relate to contacts/phone?

My phone is Verizon but I use it with T-Mobile. I've looked up all the apps that has access to my contacts and draw over apps and didn't find anything unusual.
I use truecaller but that one has it's own notification.
The picture I attached in my first post shows what is really bothering me
I have Verizon and don't get this
Well finally after a lot of research and tracking apps I finally found what app it is. It's call (efing) reminder app. That is a part of bixby I guess.
Flashlight
Plagued me for 2 weeks and removed apps one by one. As others suspected, it was a flashlight app. It's gone now. App has an icon that several apps use, so I don't remember precisely which one. Not going to reinstall one to be sure. Light House Inc has this icon.
Its App Backup and restore. Uninstall that and the annoying after phone call popups are gone
Had same problem. After uninstalling app backup and restore, everything fine.
I also had same problem but solved it by uninstalling "Bestie".
I also double checked it again after installing and uninstalling again.
Hope it helps.
App backup & restore fix
Hey everybody. I came across this thread when I was trying to fix this issue on my phone. I saw that nopers said if you uninstall the app it will go away which I'm sure would definitely work. I wanted to keep the app tho so this is what I did:
Settings>Applications>App backup and restore>Permissions>slide phone and SMS off
This worked for me on Samsung Galaxy S7 so hope that helps anyone looking for a solution.
