Cant seem to get rid of the VM waiting indicator on the status bar up top. I have listened to all my messages, but the indicator still maintains that messages are waiting.
I do however get a blank SMS whenever I listen to and clear my VM box. I have noticed this happening before on the earlier versions of the iPhone OS software, like 1.1.2-1.1.4
Any ideas on how to solve this little problem?

Hi Folks,
Has anybody else has a problem with 'ghost' voicemail icon in the Status Bar (the icon showing when there are no new Voicemail Messages). It only happens occasionally, mainly after SMS or emails are received.
Also, this may seem like a silly question - How do you turn the alarm off!?! I press the 'drop call' in the bottom right which stops the noise, but the icon still sits in the status bar!
Thanks in Advance!
Are you using your phone on Orange UK? I ask this because I am, and a couple of my Orange phones in the past have had this "problem". In every case, I have been able to get rid off this by calling Orange Customer Service on 150, then going through the myriad of voice menus to actually speak to someone concerning a Voice Mail problems, they can "refresh the voicemail settings" on their systems. This usually solves the problem. Hope it helps for you.
(Obviously if you're NOT with Orange UK, whoever your service provider is should be able to assist you in a similar way. Years ago when I was with Cellnet (that gives you a clue how long ago it was!) and Vodafone, they didn't use the voicemail icon, they used to just send you a text - I don't know if this is still the case or not.
Solution
I've just got this problem tonight. I couldnt get rid of the voicemail icon or that i had a voice message. what i did to get rid of it was phoned my phone from another and left a message. called voicemail, listened to message and deleted. the icon has now dissapeared.
Thanks to both of you for the solutions - I found frustin's to be the quickest option and save my time asking the Orange Call Centre to help. Annoying problem though!
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.
Has any body else got the same problem as me. when ever somebody leaves me a voicemail the phone doesnt show voicemail notification, unless i soft reset, then as soon as the phone boots i get the notification. its the same when i've listened to and deleted the message, the notification will not go until i soft reset.???? i'm on the orange network and tried all the different cabs and regedits that i can find to fix the problem but no luck yet!!!
There are two ways of voicemail notification. One is a normal SMS from your mailbox. The other is a system message shown on the top of the screen. Many providers only support the SMS notification.
Ok i have this weird problem.
It keeps showing me that i have next texts, when i really don't. I think it has something to do with the text secure app.
Like, it says i have a new message up on the status bar. So i pull it down and press where it says new message (it doesn't identify who it was from either, which is odd). It takes me to my text secure inbox, where there is no new messages. There is also no new messages in my regular inbox (which i don't use anymore).
And i can't get rid of the notification on the top that says i have a new message unless i clear notifications.
It doesn't really effect too much on the phone, but something is messed up and its quite annoying.
maybe gchat or other messaging services?
I am new to the 6p. i am running chroma 6.0.1 unlocked, rooted, xposed, etc.
I have tried both stock messaging and my usual (textra) and both have the same issue. Here is a scenario:
A lot of times ive gotten texts and not known it. I open textra or android messenger and see that there is an unread text. Whats weird is that a lot of times i do notice the icons on my status bar and the led blinking. So, all i can figure is that at a certain point, if the text isnt read, the notification goes away. How do I stop this? I hate opening textra and seeing that there is an unread text from yesterday.
