Weird text message issue - XPERIA X10 General

I got a text message in my notifications, so I click on it, but it comes up empty. so I go back to the home window, but the text message keeps repeating in the notifications. I restarted the phone and it's still doing it.

It's weird :-/ Take out battery & insert again after 10 seconds, it may help...
Have you more than one SMS applications?

Nope, I have only text application that came with the phone.
I did the battery thing. It's still doing it. I keep getting he message showing up in my notifications bar. What's annoying is the LED keeps blinking green.

I've even downloaded a task killer and killed messaging and it's still there. I've also went into settings>applications>messaging and cleared all data and cache and the stupid notification keeps displaying and LED blinking. It's annoying.

okay fixed the issue and really simple and I feel stupid now.
When you pull down notifications, there's a big button on the top that says CLEAR. If you press that it goes away. LOL.... I feel stupid.
EDIT TO THIS: Nope this has not fixed the issue, the message has returned into my notifications.

Reinstall the software with SEUS or SE companion

perfect thank you very much. It seems like it worked, simple and easy solution.
Only a small problem when I import the messages back in, the ghost notification message comes back. But deleting all the messages worked so I'll stick with that.

empty message when clossing message app too fast
I've got another weird text message issue:
If I send a message and press the back-button right after, the recipient will receive an empty message.
I need to wait for the red thingy next to the message's gone. I think that that icon means that the message is being sent.
Is that normal? Is it a setting I can change? I use the standard sms app....
EDIT: and I get a notification that the message is saved in concepts

I used to get weird numeric string messages from rogers on omnia but I hav't recieved any on xperia so far

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.

Eris grey envelope with arrow wont go away HELP!!

Ok so this notification just started on my Eris! when I get a message(only text not emails) this grey envelope with a arrow on it comes up in my notifications even after I’ve read and replied to the message its still there until I click it and i take me to the message that ive already replied to. I’ve turned of all settings has far as auto retrieve and text notification but it still comes up! I deleted a bunch of apps thinking maybe one of them was causing this. I called htc they had no answers but to do a hard reset and lose everything not something I want to do! So if ya know something that would help please let me know thanks!
I found a fix
Aspotcat can be downloaded from the market it will show you what is running with ur text. found out some weird app was on there but no where to be found in my phone deleted it and problem solved!
Okay..seems like you have two text message applications....
IF thats the case, then try the following:
Your stock application can be reached from the app drawer...go there and then open the stock sms application...then go to settings and remove the check next to "notification"....
Now you should only have a notification every time you receive a text from the secondary application you're using..(i.e., handcent, byte sms, etc)
Now if you did that and your message is still showing..delete all of the messages in the stock application...this should clear it...or then simply open every single text up..(im sure you're running threaded messaging so it'll be a little eaiser)
If that still doesnt work...repeat the following using your secondary messaging application (handcent..blah blah)
Now if you did that and your message is still showing..delete all of the messages in the stock application...this should clear it...or then simply open every single text up..(im sure you're running threaded messaging so it'll be a little eaiser)
If you're still having problems...and are on a rooted rom....reflash a custom rom and you'll be fine!!

New message - doesn't show in inbox

Hi,
my first problem with my x10 has encountered (after 3 months). I recently got a message, but it did not show in my inbox, only as a new alert. I cannot access this message, not even if I click on the new alert. It will only direct me to an empty message.
This is actually not a problem, but the thing is that I cannot delete this alert. It will come back even after I clear all messages, kill the messaging application, and even after a reboot.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Edit: When I clear the alert, it will not return after I enter another text message.
Edit2: Solved, removal of all messages (settings -> delete all threads) worked.
The exact same thing happened to my friend's X10...haha i wonder why this happens?

SMS problem

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?

Sms message not sent

This is the first time I get this message where and oddly enough ALL messages are marked as sent. I tried deleting cache and data then rebooting and as soon as I tap the sms icon the "message not sent" appears on the status bar. I have checked my conversations and there isn't a single one stuck on sending. Any ideas?
Sent from my Nexus 4
Oh boy.. I have started getting this error SO MUCH, for the past few months. Earlier I thought this was my operator's issue but if other N4 users are also getting it then it may be some issue with the phone's software or something. Plus, no one else who uses the same network at my home or friends are getting this issue. :s
Basically during a covnersation, often people start textimg me "hey where did u go"... or "u there" etc.. And infact I actually am replying them but they are not getting my messages. So I restart my phone and there I see "Message not sent" error in notification and a lot of red triangular icons in inbox conversations.
What to do :s
SOLVED
Found the following solution that worked like a charm!
1. Install Handcent SMS from Android Marketplace
2. Launch Handcent SMS
3. Press Menu Button >> More + >> Undelivered messages
4. Here you can delete undelivered conversations and end your "messages not sent" woes!"

It did not worked for me. Handcent was showing one undelivered message, but was unable to remove it. Maybe because both recipient and body was empty.
Very strange.
The solution was to:
1. install this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore
2. do a backup,
3. remove all messages from SMS app (you can do it in one shot from menu),
4. restore,
5. problem gone.
It's clearly an android bug.
