Blank Notifiaction Message - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General

Hello,
I am having a problem with notification messages, on the home screen I have 'notification' in the bottom left corner when I select it the box where the notification info should be pops up but its empty- just an empty white box and the only option I have on it is 'hide'. When I tap on 'hide' the box disappears but it still says 'notification' and I cant seem to get rid of it, I have tried restarting and switching off completely and removing the battery but when I power it back up its still there and it wont go away.
Anybody else getting this or any idea of how to get rid of it?
Thanks.

Password issue
I also experienced the same problem. For my case, it's related to the lock/password setting. Everytime when I restart my Touch Dual, it will bring the password skin (of course I set it up intentionally for security reason). Then, the blank message comes up after I put my passwords.
The only way to remove it is to go to the setting/lock and input my password again. Then the blank notification message will go.........strange bug anyway.
I hope this help.

Thanks, I'll give it a try and yes it is a strange bug- do you use the autolock feature?

Auto lock for every 5 minutes
yes. I set it as every 5 minutes. It will lock.
Cheers,

Same bug here on the 20 key EU version...

Just wanted to say that chris_khho's solution of locking and unlocking does workaround the problem- thanks. Still annoying though. I'm also on a 20 key European version.

Blank notification message
Actually, you do not need to enter the password for this workaround. Go to Settings/Lock. Click on Menu/Cancel. The blank notification will go away.

I'm using Lock/Password. To remove blank message (after restart) just prepare new SMS with no recipient and jump to message body, then cancel message... This removes stupid blank notification....

Mortscript to remove blank notification
I've written a script (works with Mortscript from http://mort.sto-helit.de) to remove the blank notification. I save this as remove.mscr and place a shortcut to it in windows\start menu. I'm new to Mortscript so if anyone can improve this script, please let me know.
# remove blank notification
Run "\windows\ctlpnl.exe" , "cplmain.cpl,1"
Sleep(500)
SendSpecial("RightSoft")
SendSpecial("Up")
SendSpecial("CR")

This message disapears also when u change input type in any application.
from xt9 to abc or whatever.
This Bug seems to be related to devicelock and exchange btw.
Without i don't have this problem.

If your using Exchange then it forces you to use the lock due to security settings...at least on mine it gave me a message once i set up my exchange that it had to force security policies on my phone and then had to set the lock. does anyone know of a hack/workaround to disable to required lock with exchange?

SMS reply keyboard error

Hello.
I've noticed a small but annoying error that occurs
when selecting 'reply' [to an SMS] from the touchflo menu
when tapping on the SMS message in touchflo to open it and then trying to reply
the SMS appears, the keyboard shows for a couple of second then automatically hides itself. Tapping on the keyboard icon at the bottom opens it again, but only for a few seconds then it will auto hide. So there is no way to enter text for a reply.
The only solution is to open the SMS inbox, then open the SMS (the keyboard appears and doesn't auto hide in this case).
Have I described the scenario ok?
anyone know how to fix this, makes the device useless for SMS and email
yea ive noticed.. but i just say to hide it and then click on the msg box then open it back up.. or just w/e... haha its a bit annoying but doesn't happen all the time

Message notification problem.

Hi Folks,
This is a small, seemingly insignificant problem but it's bloody annoying so I'm hoping you can help me solve it:
When I receive a new message (SMS, MMS, Email) the little message shortcut on the desktop get's the little green '1' overlaid to show there's a message. Once I read the message and reply it doesn't disappear. I can open the message in Chomp or the system default app and it doesn't seem to register with the shortcut - it still shows the overlaid green number.
I know this is something of a trifling problem but I have my phone on silent a lot so it does cause some confusion.
Thanks in advance.
i've noticed mine staying on for a while but then disappearing... maybe it sits there for another 10/15 minutes?
Could be. I have to admit that afer about 10 minutes I've been losing patience and deleting the message, which makes it go away.
do u read ur messages through the widget page? cause i noticed that if u do, then the little green ball remains but somehow if u click on the message icon with the green ball to access ur acc and read from there, then it goes away.
I think that may be a factor, yeah. When I read them through the 'drag down' menu, either with chomp or system default it stays, I'll open the next one through the icon and see if that changes things.
I find that the trackball keeps flashing too unless you actually tap on the Messages shortcut icon to read the new messages that come through (as oppose to viewing from the notifications menu or through the text messages widget). I hope HTC fix this issue 'cos not everyone wants to go through the messages app via the Messages shortcut icon.
Yeah, I only used the messaging icon yesterday and it was fine. The problem seems limited to when you use the 'drag-down- menu.

HTC HD2 - Lock Screen Notification Problem

I have a HTC HD2 and when the screen is locked, it shows a number 1 (identifying that i have a notification).
When i tap the notification icon, it drops down and shows me the voicemail icon - which means i should have a new voicemail message to listen to.
If i slide the voicemail icon, the phone goes straight to phone book, but when i call my voicemail - there are no new messages...
I have tried everything and i just cant get rid of this voicemail icon! I DO NOT want to do a hard reset.... Please let me know how to sort this out...
+1.
I'm too having this problem. Whenever there's a new email notification on the lock screen it always shows there are 2 messages, one being a voicemail.
I can't find a solution for this problem here on XDA (if anyone has a search string for me, please let me know )
I remember Nokias having ghost voicemail messages, these were reset by the mobile service provider, check with your network just in case.
Possible Solution...
I'm not an expert, but I kept noticing this problem as well (HTD2 on AT&T). Happens after a hard reset OR if AT&T updates their network or something (who knows).
Anyway, experimented and found if I left a message to my phone from another line right after a reset (when I was seeing the "ghost" voice mail notification), allowed the message to register on the HD2. Turn screen off then on. Slide VM notification. Dial VM. Check the messages and delete all (press 7 to delete). Exit VM with * key. And the ghost notification disappears. I will update if this works in the future.
Hope this helps someone.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Some consumers reported ghost notifications on the Touch Pro 2. I don't know how they fixed them but I know they did. You may want to search those forums to see if the same solution can be used on the HD2. I think it should given that the operating software is pretty much the same.
any solution ?
i tried this but doesnt workhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7731861&postcount=10

Help on SMS

Hey,
Need some help i had restore my phone and now when i get an sms and the phone is on standby mode i dont get to see the message till i turn on.
Is there any settings i need to change for this option.
Thx
confusing question. first when you receive a message, the light indicator on top color green starts blinking. and i am sure you cant read sms i standby mode until you open the message folder or in touchflo. . rephrase your question.
Sorry to confuse you what i mean was, last time when my phone was on standby mode and i get a message, it will display the lock screen and show me there is a message. i can unlock the phone and read the message or on the lock screen scroll down and read the message.
but now when i get a message i hear the message tone and my screen in blank (standby mode) i need to click the button to active the screen then i either unlock the screen or scroll down to read.
i hope i didn't confuse you again
ahan so you are saying that now when you receive a message the screen doesn't automatically lights up. try soft rest. if softy doesn't work then hard reset that for sure will solve it.
I understand your question, it is when you open ur phone, you will see a preview of the message on your screen am i right?
When you restored the settings went to default, heres how you get it back.
start>settings>sound and notifications>notifications tab>
On event : choose text message
And tick display message on screen.
Done
i have try all of the above but sadly this dose not help
huh? even hard reset? get a new rom.
