Stop App updating? - Asus Zenpad 8.0 Questions & Answers

Hey all.
I need to figure out how to stop messaging apps etc from updating old messages and showing that I have X-number of unread messages on my Zenpad?
Specifically.... Let's say I don't use my pad for 2 or 3 days. But today I turn it on. As it starts all my messaging apps such as: email, Facebook, text messages, etc etc show that there are unread messages.
So for example the icon will show that I have, let's say, 20 text messages. In fact I don't, but it's counting the 20 that were sent and opened/read on my cell phone since the last time I started my Zenpad up.. When I open the app they of course are not showing if I deleted a message or they don't show as unread. Which is good that it's not showing messages as unread once in the app but why is it seeing messages that are read our deleted as the app starts?
This doesn't happen in reverse. For example of I open a message on my Zenpad but then start my phone the apps on my phone so not reflect the opened messages that I looked at on the pad.
So I guess my question is how do I stop the apps from showing that I have unread messages?
Hopefully that wasn't confusing.

1 Unread message

Hi, I am having this problem with one unread SMS when in fact there are no messages in my in box. It's kinda annoying because even after I deleted all my messages, all 95 of them, it still keeps me showing I still have one unread SMS. Any suggestions please. Don't want to reset my device just because of one unread message which I can't see.
Try looking in the '1 Unread SMS' thread about 6 threads down
Thanks a lot for yer help helterskelter. And sorry for duplicating a thread. A lil' heads up the utility will set the count straight only with the messaging application closed. I ran it the first time with the messages open and the phantom message(now I know what it's called) was still showing.

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.

[Q] Odd SMS Behavior

Hi all,
I work with a guy who has a Droid 2 and every time he sends a text message, it shows a failed delivery icon in the notification bar and says "2 Text messages not sent." When clicked, it just takes him back to the inbox. However, the message that is sent does reach its recipient (my Dinc for testing purposes).
He is not rooted, and he's running the stock messaging app (for all intents and purposes, he does not "use" his Android the way we do, it's a work phone).
Any thoughts on why it's doing this?
EDIT: For what it's worth, he does not have any "drafts" in his Messages that could be causing this issue.
EDIT 2: This has been corrected. There were unsent messages that the stock messaging app was not showing. Upon downloading Handcent, said messages were made visible and were removed.

[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

Show complete messages in status bar

Hey guys, if I have more then one message on my phone, I can't see the entirely message. You can only read the first words of the message and the rest is not shown .........
Is there a possibility to see the entire messages without opening the app (e.g. whatsapp, threema). Thx a lot..
Only way is installing a lockscreen app. I have tried several apps but did not like anyone. So I think it is not possible to see all whatsapp messages without opening the app...
