thank but that did not work for me my home plugin still says it has 2 unread messages

I think I had the same problem when I had to hardrest my phone.. What it was was some welcome messages that were stored in there.. I dont remember where... so go through each of your accounts that you have and see if theres any hidden in places that it shouldnt be..even in your outbox or sent messages or something.

starred in android?

Anyone know what this means in gmail.com?

If you starred a message on the device, the message will be starred in your Gmail. Next to the message subject line there is a small star on the left.

Assign stars to special conversations or messages, or use them as a visual reminder that you need to follow-up on a message or conversation later.

ooooooo ok!
Is there a place in the phone to view stared contacts and emails etc...?
thanks!

yeah when your in the gmail app hit menu, then tap View Labels and choose starred.

Try going into all messages at the bottom left when on the message tab sometimes the phone has messages in the inbox that dont respond, check the inbox folder and delete the sms see if that works

Tried that already... I now have no messages at all and it still shows 1 sms to be read! Grrr

I had that problem until i noticed that there WAS an unread email, it wasn't in my newly created email inbox, it was in the Outlook Email inbox.
This email seems to be created automatically when you run the HD for the first time.
Have a look at the mail inbox again and switch it so you can see all the email accounts (use the the drop down list in the top left corner), check the Outlook Email Inbox too.
Goodluck.

Email icon with unread email

I would like to have an email icon showing unread email (pop3) in my arc with the native Sony apps. It's possible?

gm,
you mean in the left upper corner of the screen?? in the account settings you can set a ringtone for a new mail, and also visual mail notification. i get an '@' in the statusbar upper left when i got new mail.

I think I know what you mean. I used to have an HTC Touch HD and the icons for SMS and Email would show how many unread texts/emails you had. All you get in android is an icon in the notification area. It's taken me a while to get used to which icon is which as I have hotmail, gmail and sms.
Is there any way (or an app) to have the shortcuts show you how many unread items there are instead??

Just found a couple of apps called Gmail unread count and SMS unread count. These are widgets which kinda works. Can't figure out how you go and change the options once you've added them though. Maybe I have to remove the widget and add it again.

[Q] SMS count notification - how to get rid of it?

Hi there. I have same problem as here Get rid of SMS notification on top status bar on my Mini.
In HTC Sense homesreec, above SMS tab, is still unread SMS count. Im reading SMS messages in that tab, but I have to open it in messaging app to clear notification. Sometimes I have to open all of them since I dont know which one is unread. Can I disable that notification somehow or set it to mark as read when I read it in Sense Home Screen?

There is a timeout on the SMS tab.
If you have received an SMS and switch to the SMS tab, the counter is only changed when the SMS is shown long enough. If you read quickly and swipe to the next SMS, the timeout is not reached, and the counter not changed.
To quickly show which SMS are not read yet, go to "All messages". You will see an overview of your contacts and the unread messages from these contacts.

Thank you very much, really. You're right, I never reached that timeout before, I'm reading too fast. I'll wait for it now, it's working
