Number 1 on mail icon tab - Touch HD General

Hello,
my HD is flashed with the latest topix build and everything works fine, except one small thing that really bothers me (well, pisses me off ) !!
The mail icon (not the SMS one) has number 1 on it, as if I've received a new mail. That's not the case though as I have no new mails. I've even deleted the account and the "problem" is still there !!
Thanks in advance for any replies !!
EDIT: Also, another "problem" I've found, is that I can't change "My Location" both in the weather tab and on the homescreen (under the clock).
If you can, answear to that too please !

Try this to sort out your number one...

Thank you for the reply, but that didn't fix the problem...

i had this a week before other things on my touch hd started to go wrong. the camera then vanished and the phone then kept turning itself off. hopefully not the same for you but warranty repair in the end.

often the '1 unread message' thing occurs after you have used activesync for the first time / first time after flashing a new ROM.
in the mail account 'Outlook' it puts a stupid 'welcome to your phone' email message.
check this account and delete the email.
hope this helps,
Tom

Thanks again !

Old Email Messages Deleted Automatically

Hi all,
I 've got the Qtek9100, and with both the default rom it shipped with and the custom Tmobile 2.17 ROM I've had this problem. I use Gmail on my phone via pop3, and my problem is that the phone is constantly deleting my old email messages. Its not sending them to the deleted items folder, but removing them from my inbox as though they never existed. Have any of you encountered this problem or know of a way to fix this? Thanks.
I have a Cingular 8125 and I have the same problem. After I close the email its gone!
Same problem here too.
set to get first 999kB of message.. it is the only work around that i found
Loosing Emails.
I had this type of problem with SMS's and emails - basically anything with Pocket Outlook.
The solution was to Close outlook fully (not with the 'x') before soft-resetting the phone. Pocket outlook does not seen to write the new emails to it's database until the app is closed. (i.e running programs - stop program)..
Since I started closing outlook fully before soft-resetting I have not lost 1 message.

Actually, closing outlook fully does not stop email from being deleted. This happens even when I don't soft reset the phone. I'll try getting the first 999kb of a message, though I worry that this could fill my phone quickly if I don't pay attention. Also, I don't have this problem with SMS messages.
I figured it out.
Under Tools -> options in Pocket Outlook is an option to "Display messages from last x days only." I've unchecked that, so here's hoping that takes care of the problem. Hope it helps everyone else who had this problem.

I had this unchecked already, and I still have the same problems.
Any other ideas?
Here si the fix on the HTC and disappearing emails
1 start/message/click email account/menu/tools/options/tap email account/edit account setup/next/next/next/next/next/download message 3 pls days/advance setting/keep them on server/next/ finish
Do this for all accounts
Now go to your computer and outlook tools/email accounts/view or change email account/next/change/ more settings/advanced/leave copy on server/ how many days is up to you
You must do this for all you accounts on that computer. then do the same to all the computer you use to get the same e-mails.

8525 and missing emails.

I'm running the leaked version of the Cingular rom and while I know this isn't final I was kinda hoping that some things would get fixed. One of them being the missing email problem.
After a few hours receiving a email it just disappears into thin air!!!!! and yes I have it set to always show emails no matter how old they are..
Where are my emails going? I want to keep ALL my emails until I decide to delete them..
Anyone got any suggestions? I have tried everything and nothing works..
Out of curiosity am I the only one on a 8525 that has this problem?
Have you used the site search, and tried the retrieve 999kb header fix?
Yes and they still dissapear..
I have tried everything..
i too am having this problem. you are not alone. guess now i will be trying out 3rd party mail clients for the time being. everything else with the upgrade is fantastic so im not going back
This is still an issue with me also. Using a verizon pop3 account.
Incorrect Settings...??

In order to help, we need to know what pop account you are using... for instance, I had this problem with Gmail messages disappearing after a couple of hours to a day... found out that there is a non published setting that appears when using the phone's auto config feature... Let me explain...
when setting up the pop3 account for gmail, the settings are as included on their website... problem is that I have my outlook connected at home and constantly checking messages, and is configured to leave messages on server.... But with the other machine pulling the messages, for some reason they disappear on my TyTN even though I have it set to grab messages for the last 7 days...
what the auto config feature has done was to add "recent:" without the quotes in front of my account name, so it reads "recent:[email protected]"... Once that was done, my messages stopped automatically disappearing... Try it, what do you have to lose that you haven't lost already...

The first setup I edited out the "recent" and had the disappearing mail problem - I deleted that email account and ran the setup again leaving the "recent:" text in and bingo my Gmail works as it should on my P3600i.
Thanks for the tip.
PS. The only bug now is that the mail that I sent also appears in the Inbox - is there a way to correct this?

Another member had this problem and I have PMd him to see if he found a solution - non was posted on the forum at the time.
There is a zip file available on the FTP to fix SMS count when it say 1 unread message when actually non exist. Whether it would work for outgoing messages or not I don't know - might be worth a try:

I ended up deleting the whole mail account and recreating the connection.

Display error on email tab

Not sure how to get rid of this but my email tab in touchflo shows a 1 against it like there's an unread email in there.
There isn't. There are no emails in there at all!
I've done a soft reset and it was still there afterwards so I did a send receive and got 6 new emails but it then showed as 7 on the tab.
I then did select all & delete but it still shows as 1 on the tab and it's really winding me up!
Any idea why it's got stuck like this and how I can cure it?
Many thanks guys.

Have you gone into All emails section and checked all email accounts including outbox, inbox, sent, received etc
Yes, look in Outlook Inbox, it's more than likely the welcome email
Thanks guys - I thought I'd gone through all the folders but somehow I missed a new Tips & tricks one in the Outlook Inbox. No idea why that's only just come through but embarassing that I didn't spot it.
Thanks!

There is an issue where the lockscreen and emails stop working. Go to the start menu and lock your phone from the softkey (bottom left). Then, unlock it and try to open an email by clicking it. If that works, you just need to do that every now and then. It's a pain, but hopefully HTC are working on it.
If that doesn't do it, I'm sure someone on here will be more help
Edit:
You posted while I was posting
Glad you got it sorted.
