I get a -1 unread messages in my message screen
Jan 10 2008, 11:50 AM EST
I have the Shadow for T-Mobile. I have deleted all my text messages in my phone. However, when I go to the screen for messages, I get a "-1 unread" on the text messages screeen and a "1 unread" in my picture messages and a "1 Unread" in my voice notes screen. I do not have any voice notes or voicemail and all messages have been deleted. Does anyone know how to clear this out? 4  out of 4 found this valuable. Do you?

I had to call T-Mobile and they had me reset my phone. I lost tons of pictures and numbers that weren't saved to my sim card. I have yet to have the problem since doing that. 1  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

Try a Soft Reset by removing your battery with the device powered on. That may do it without having to do a hard reset. 0  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

i have the same problem, but found that if someone sends me a picture message it will sometimes clear it. then again, when i get another pic message, it comes back sometimes....i don't get it. it doesn't always do it, and nothing i've done so far helps. not even taking the battery out. tmobile told me to call customer service and "they'll have a fix for it if its a common problem, otherwise good luck." helpful right? ha! 1  out of 1 found this valuable.

My HTC Mogul screen also displays 1 unread text message, however there is no message to view. The inbox folder displays 1 message but there isn't one. Please someone help us all with this issue. I have tried all the forum recommendations without success. There has to be a way to fix it short of a hard reboot, which I had to do a couple of days ago for another issue.

Download and install the latest update from www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade. The rom update addresses the -1 sms indicator 0  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
