Hi all,
Does anyone know if there is a way to have your emails show up as having been read when you read them in touch flow (i.e see what is written in the little envelope)? Otherwise even when you can see what the email says in the little picture envelope you still need to go to the actual inbox before it marks it as read and removes the little green circle telling you have new mail. Surely that defies the point when all the time you have to go back to the Inbox no matter what??
Thanks in advance for any help!!

Please pardon this posting (if this is an already known issue - it's 3.00AM and I've been combing the Herald threads for known issues but didn't see this on there)...
I got a new Wing today and after placing the SIM card in it, the phone works like one would expect until you try to send a text message. That never gets sent . What's more aggravating is the behavior on incoming text messages. The keys light up when I get a new text message and the counter on the home screen adds to the number of unread messages however, when I click on the link to attempt to view the messages, the inbox is blank. 0 messages in it. I have checked all the folders to no avail. Even a hard reset on the device doesn't seem to fix the issue. Am I missing something here? If so what??
FYI I called T-Mo support and their Tier 3 guy was stumped.
Here's the wierd thing while I was going through testing to validate that this was an actual issue, I did get the "incoming text message" bubble notification and from there, I clicked on Menu (from the home page) and was able to view the text messages - so they're somewhere in my phone, just not in the inbox - anyone have any idea where I can look?
*bump*
I'm having this problem now. Ever find the fix?
Hello all,
I have a couple of niggles with my HD and I wanted to ask if anyone knows any way to sort them out.
As you know, when you read a text message in TouchFlo HD, you can delete it from there without the need to open the message fully and delete. However, with emails, you cannot do this, you have to navigate to your inbox in order to delete the message.
Is there any way around this?
Also, when you read a text message (SMS) in TouchFlo, after a few seconds, the SMS alert (the little green 1) disappears. However, if you do the same for an email the alert doesn't disappear unless you go to the inbox and open the email there.
Does anyone know a way of making this work in the same way as the SMS inbox in TouchFlo?
Thanks
BUMP!!
Would also be interesting in knowing if a solution to this is available
I thought there might be a way to edit the menu list, but unfornunately, I don't know where to start with it. I've been wanting this for a while.
Maybe this should be in the apps thread also?
Anyone else have any thoughts on this at all?
Hey guys,
As I'm sure most of you are aware... the touchflo 3d interface on the Touch HD has an SMS message window... now when you receive a message, it obviously displays it. However the "new message" icon appears on the touchflo bar (at the bottom) still while you have the message up for a few seconds. This is quite irritating since it usually appears for longer than it takes for me to read it, so I have to wait for it to dissapear then tap the message to reply in order to not have a new message icon forever!
Anyone know how to change the time it takes for the new message number to dissapear? Ideally I'd like it to be instant as soon as the text is displayed! I'm talking about the little numbers over the SMS icon on the touchflo bar....
hope all that made sense!

i second the motion --- i would like to have a solution for this as well! any info from anyone on how to modify the touchflo3d interface for this, would be greatly appreciated
Add to this the same issue with unread email. I hate to have to open inbox to mark the item read. Another thing, can't delete email from tf3d, but can delete sms. How to delete email without openning inbox?

There was a possible temporary solution to the email problem.
Try using "Safe" Inbox Extender
NOTE
This is only a temp solution for email and not sms until a proper solution is found
As always, you have been most helpful. Thanks Fallen Spartan! However, what would be more useful would be the ability to mark any/all email read without navigating away from tf3d email tab, i.e. without opening inbox.

This would be the perfect solution, however I haven't seen this anywhere
This is also on my list of annoyances for the email thing.
With the SMS I find it dissapears after about 3 or 4 seconds, so I just wait until I hit reply.
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.
I'm not one for askin questions as a good search normally throws summat up along the lines of what i would be looking for but right now i'm stuck. This has annoyed me for a while now, when i've received an sms or email .etc notification and i read the sms the 'notification bubble' (the thing that shows how many messages i have) stays there if i come out of the message too quick, 99% of the time i have read the message and i have to wait for a couple of seconds to make sure that the number of new messages icon dissapears, is there any way of changing the length of time of this, so if i get a new message i can look at it and read it in a split second and the phone excepts that i dont have a 'new' message anymore?
My appologies if this has been answered as i figured it would be a common problem.......hangovers dont normally effect my searching abilities
