Issue with new SMS/Text Notification - Postcard icon - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hi,
I am hoping that you could help me with these.
The first is a minor issue while the second is really starting to annoy me.
When I get a new SMS/text message, the normal yellow envelope appears in the notification bar. I drag down the notification bar and read the text message. However, if I just press the menu key to exit the messaging application, the yellow envelope stays there. However, if I exit out using the back key, the yellow envelope disappears.
As of about 10 mins ago, when I get a SMS, I now get the yellow envelope and a second white envelope about 2 seconds later. The white envelope will only disappear when I press the Clear button in the Notifications bar.
I cannot figure out how to get rid of the second white notification envelope.
Edit: I have since realised that it is in fact a postcard icon.

I've noticed this feature too...it doesn't seem to clear the notification unless you drill right into the text message...ie click on the speech bubble.only then will it register as being read.bit annoying but can cope with it.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Did you instal any 3rd party messaging clients? I have never seen the white envelope before

think the white envelope is an e-mail

I can defo put up with this alright. By the way, you don't have to drill right down into the message. Just pressing the back button to exit out of the message is sufficient to clear down the yellow notification envelope
It is the second, the white notification icon, that is driving me mad. I can only get this to clear when I press the Clear button.
I just looked at it closer. The icon is actually a postcard.

I assumed too but it triggering everytime I get text message.

I figured out that it was "Beautiful Widgets: Pack 2" that was causing the problem.

thank you so much, because this was driving me crazy... i had reset my phone like 5 time because of this

Missed call notification

The notification box comes up, but only for a while. After that there is only the single line on Home screen.
Is there a fix to keep it until manually dismissed?

You mean the "Miss call notification" icon at the top bar? It stays there until you open up call history, and see the missed call.
No, azahidi, I did not mean that.
When I miss a call, I get "1 missed call" text on the Home screen in the line above the Calendar. The green LED also flashes. That stays on until I do something.
About 3 seconds later, a large white notification box appears at the bottom. That only stays for several seconds and disappears. I would like it to stay until I dismiss it.
For older people, using the phone without reading glasses, the larger the notification the better. With my distance glasses on, it is not that easy to see the icons. Specially outdoors.
Anyway, this is not very important, but if it was possible to do, I would do it.

Sorry Joe, I musunderstood you. Now I understand what you wish. I am not sure if that's possible at all. I customised the "Missed Call" icon at top bar to be in bright red round background.. a bit better than white.
I suppose I will have to get used to the flashing LED.
Can it be made to flash faster?

No pop up messages

during my one month hd2 usage i havent found any annoying issues with it, however there is one issue that i would like to have - when sms/reminder is arriving it would be great to have it on screen straight away like in other phones - is it possible somehow?
Ah yes, +1, that small icon at the top is not enough :S
settings - menu - all settings - sounds and notifications - notifications tab - scroll down events to 'message:new message' - tick display message on screen

maybe i am old fashioned, but on my old iphone, se w910i each message that comes in popup as preview on the home screen - this is the problem
Give it a try, send yourself a message, then jump to the home page. Its not a problem at all, and doesn't look out of place against the manila skin.
*update* oh right, i just re-read what the OP wants and this is slightly different, this just shows the message, it doesn't access it (so you can't reply directly)

Time delay on text reply

First of all, I have the US version of HD2.
When I receive a new text message, I click on the text itself. Then click on the white space that labeled "tap to add text" to reply. Now it brings up the keyboard on the bottom of the screen. When I start typing, the texts don't usually show up on the screen right away. Sometimes the phone will freeze. Do any of you guys have the same problem? If so, how do I fix that?
Thanks in advance.
::bump:: any feedback on this would be great
happens to me also, i noticed if you click 2 times to add text it usually prevents this.

Keep finding new things out - messages / calls

Every now and then I find some new stuff that I have not seen documented (probably just missed it though)
Looking at your contacts list; or the people you have sent messages to, press and slide to the right and the colour changes to green to call, slide to the left and the colour changes to orange to message.

I've noticed it a while ago
In contact list you can slide your finger on the left to see letters and if you go to the left while doing it it will show 2 letters instead of one

How to get spinning circle notification on LED Flip Wallet like in this video ?

EDIT: Firmware update in canada fixed these issues.
Look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlGO2VXvAc0
8min 32seconds. His LED flip cases are getting that spinning circle notification for things like whatsapp and stuff.
All I get on mine is missed call and text.
I don't get missed email alert or missed whatsapp or the spinning circle (which I think is a general notification for any 3rd party app that isn't phone or text)
I checked every setting !
I also did a hard reset (hold down 3 buttons, navigate with volume and hard reset and reboot)
Nothing helped.... I still don't get that spinning circle notification.
Any help would be appreciated.
PS: Samsung support has no idea whats the issue...
I tried hard reset, still not getting it
Any ideas?

I got my Note 4 on the 21st of january, the led flip wallet the day after and I've had de circling dots since the beginning. Running Dutch NK4 build completely stock.
I get the circling dots, I get an an icon when something new arrives but after that.. just the dots.
If I press the side button or open/close the case, all I get is the time - no icons to show what's been missed. Is this the normal/expected way it works?
I'm unimpressed!

I think it only displays missed Call and Text.
For email, whatsapp and all other notifications, it only does the spinning dots.
I get the circling dots pretty much all the time, even when I have no notifications. eg Right now. If I open the cover, slide down the notification panel, there are no notifications. If I close the case, the time briefly displays and the case then goes blank for a whole minute. Then up pops the spinning circle again.
Yes the case is on properly. :crying:
