I've had a little search but couldn't find anything relevant.
Is there a way to tell how many text messages you've sent and how many you currently have in your inbox?
You sure can. Go to the sms/mms tab in TF3D and go to your inbox and hit All Messages (bottom left). That will put you in your inbox. Then go Menu>Select Messages>All and on the bottom it will tell you how many messages you've selected. After that, navigate to the "Sent Items" folder by clicking "Inbox" on the top left and selecting Sent Items. Once in Sent Items, it should tell you on the bottom how many items are in that folder (or you can go Menu>Select Messages>All). Also, many phone companies will have a way to check how many txts/minutes you have used so far in your billing cycle. For Tmobile (USA) you send #msg# for sms/mms and #min# for minutes. Lastly, there are third party apps which will keep track of all this for you (including data usage).
Hope it helps

Yesterday the TouchFlo of my Touch HD started to always show one unread e-mail although all mails were read. Deleting the account or a softreset or doing both didn't help (with or without TouchFlo disabled). Even without any mail account I still get one unread e-mail.
Start -> Messaging shows the correct mail count (0 unread mails).
If I receive a new mail the TouchFlo counts 2 unread, after I read the new one, 1 unread message remains.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Go to Messaging to mail account open the tree and in outlook email you will see a message delete it and you are all set
Thank you very much! That was it!
I made an restore with pimbackup, and I still see 25 in the counter (I have a lot more). I also don't see any message in the outlook email
Sorry to hijack the thread but I have exactly the same problem but with SMS messages.
Its shows one unread message but there are none in the messages folder. Even if I go to the tree, sure enough its states Inbox (1) but upon entering the inbox there is nothing.
Can anyone help please, its driving me nuts!!
I'm having this exact same problem. Touchflo shows 1 SMS. I've completely cleared all messages in all folders, yet it still shows 1 on the counter. Like GuyAdams, it's driving me crazy too.

thanks a lot. that was my problem
it was driving me crazy.
i had the same problem a long time ago and someone in the raphael forums gave me a tool to reset unread message count. Go search there and see if you can find it. It was simply an exe file to run
I have the same problem with emails. It says I have 2 unread but ive deleted everything.
Tried going through the tree as above. Nothing shows.
Tried the .exe fiile. Nothing happened. Still showing 2 unread.
Any other suggestions?

This is what works most of the time!
Here's a little more detail. (different versions of Touchflo have minor differences)
1. go to 'Messaging' tab (sms texts) in Touchflo.
2. tap softkey (left) labeled 'All messages'
3. This should bring up 'Messaging' program.
4. tap softkey (right) labeled 'Menu'
5. tap option 'Go To >'
6. tap option 'Outlook E-mail'
7. Delete unread email here.
8. Close Messages and check that your email counter has adjusted.
Hopefully this works for most problems.
If you have done this you can download the *.exe others have mentioned. The name of it is fixunreadcount.exe and about 9k. Hopefully I've attached a zip of it to this post.
Still the problem, hidden account?
Hello,
Thank you for all these answers, but no method worked for me... I still have one unread message
Perhaps this problem has a link to this other issue: as I configured my gmail account, a bug makes that no account is created if I leave the name "Gmail" for the name account. If I choose "Google" or an other name, it works. Perhaps the "Gmail" account, which does not appear, is hidden somewhere?
Thanks for your help!
Success

Thanks.
This .exe removed the 1 from the SMS inbox, but not the 1 from touchflo. I then did a soft reset and it was still there. I then did the "Go To" Outlook as suggested and checked Outlook and SMS inboxes and neither had the 1 in but JOY OF JOYS, when I came bake to Touchflo, the 1 had gone.
Thanks again.
I have noticed that the inbox shows all messages, including those I have sent when the person has not replied yet. I understand this is because of the threaded view. Any way to disable it?
I think there is a registry trick to show individual messages instead of threads, does it also show sent messages in the inbox?
Also, for sent messages without a reply the subject line shows the surname ahead of the first name, both in the inbox and in the sent items folder. Is this a bug?
I don't understand what you want. Do you want to see all the messages you have sent to a person? (to do that, tap the message in TouchFlo). Please explain. Sorry if I am the only one who doesn't get it. Cheers!
Sorry for not makiing it clear. Suppose you have sent a message to a person X. This is the first time you have made contact with X. He hasn't replied. Then, if you go to your inbox, you will see that the sms you sent appears in the inbox, even though he hasn't replied. So you are basically seeing a sent message in the inbox folder.
I disabled threaded view and they don't appear anymore. I wanted to know if we can make them disappear in threaded view. I assume not, because it is a feature of the threaded view.
Secondly, in the case of X who has never sent me an sms, I will see him as "Surname, X" instead of "X Surname" in the subject field. I wonder if this is a bug?
not really a bug. It depends on how you want to view your contacts' name. If you have noticed, in all contacts you also see Surname, X.
Well, all my contacts are sorted by "X Surname". And in all my sms they appear as "X Surname" except those from whom I have received no sms yet.
Can you pls guide me how you have sorted your contacts as "X Surname"...I could not find any option for specifying the sorting order.
You can either edit the contact and choose "More" at the bottom of the screen or, to do it for all the contacts, use Contact Changer 1.3.

hi does anyone know how to increase the number of emails that show up, currently it only shows up 50 but is there a way of increasing the number?
and also when i send emails, they dont show up on my sent email tab....anyone know why?
thanks in advance =D
email tab - click inbox - menu - scroll down to Tools - Options -
1 - on accounts tab, tap the account you want to change, tap 'send and receive schedule', 'Download messages' is probably set to ''past three days''. ALso on this tab at the bottom, 'advanced settings' - you might want to edit the settings in there, such as 'delete from server when deleting'.
2 - same place, switch to message tab - tick 'keep copies of sent items in sent folder'
thanks for the reply
but im using hotmail and it only shows me yhe options for windows live....and ive looked but no options to increase emails
as of sent items. ive already checked that box but still doesnt save....
When you’re in Mail and you want to switch to a different folder of the current email account (inbox, sent items, deleted items etc…) you can open a drop down field by hitting the top left corner button of the window which displays all the folders for easy browsing.
If you have unread messages in any of these folders you would have their count displayed in brackets next to the name of each folder.
Can it also be possible to display there the count of the total number of messages in this folder next to the count of unread massages in it (only say not in bold but in normal font)?
Sometime one would forget messages in some folders (like in ”Drafts” for instance). This way this would be displayed next to the folder name when browsing folders.
I have once tried FlexMail and this was possible there.
But for the normal Mail app I was not able to find how it is possible to do it despite searching xda-dev many times.
Any ideas out there?
I noticed the default Email application (with the yellow icon) has been updated. I now see icons representing the name of the contact, similar interface to Gmail, etc. One thing I thought I remember reading about was message threading. This doesn't seem to be working though. Each email I with the same subject (just replies) is continuing to be put in a separate thread/email item. Is there an option I am missing that will enable threading? Sure, it's not a huge disappointment, but I figured with this many years under its belt, the default Email app would allow threading of messages. My dad doesn't like text messaging so we regularly email throughout the day resulting in 12+ emails. Right now, they are still showing up as 10+ email even though they could be shown similar to Gmail in 1 thread.
Thanks.
I'd like to know how to stop conversations in gmail!
I can't help with that, but I have another question someone might know the answer to: how to hide the "Show X more folders" that is ALWAYS at the top of the email inbox view?
