I just got a notif saying I need to do ANOTHER system update. Does anyone have details on these two updates yet? TMO S5...
NM it went away. It appears to have been a msg from the first update (?) or an update for another app / service that notifies using the same intrusive onscreen msg.
I have searched and searched and I'm sure there is an east fix. But this has me stumped.
I am rooted and have safestrap installed. I have frozen a few apps through tibu such as the Ota update and the security policy update.
Out of the blue 3 days ago, my voice mail notification symbol in my status bar just showed up. I use Google voice and have not used the stock VM in years. But I listened to my VM through the stock app so that I could clear the notification. I listened several times and I have no new messages now, but the icon is still there and I have no idea how to clear it any help would be appreciated! It's really bugging me LOL
Thanks
I finally went in and force closed the phone app...and it went away.
Hi Google must've recently changed the times it pushes out updates. I'm proper sick if them waking me up.
I still want to receive these but at a time I determine.
Is there some setting or app for this? I cannot find anything.
Thanks
Has anyone else run into this issue in the past week or so? Soon as I updated to the newest version of Google messenger ah which is now "Android messages" probably to reduce confusion between Facebook messenger, my messages app always says I have unread messages which I do not. I also do not use any other messaging app for texting. I do not even have the Facebook messenger app.
Things I have tried:
Deleting data on messages, fixes it temporarily after a restart but then comes right back.
Uninstalled app, restarted, reinstalled, restarted, still does it.
Tried clicking on every individual text message on each person, doesn't fix it.
Bothers me so much I did a factory reset, put no apps on my phone, disabled any bloat, downloaded Android messages, tried it, still saying I have unread messages.
I have no idea what else to try, from what I have heard on Reddit, many others are experiencing the same problem and no fix for them that they knew of yet.
I'm thinking it must be something with the recent update, obviously that was my first deduction after updating and it happening literally right after with never having problems but I'd figure I would try stuff and see what happens.

Any updates? My wife's ZF is experiencing the same thing. I noticed it on my own device a few days ago, but, since I run Action Launcher, I just turned off notification badges.
Had same exact issue but fixed it
Yes I've had this same issue since the update and it turned out to be related to Verizon Messages app. I opened Verizon Messages, opened each "unread" thread then I closed the app and disabled it. No issues since then with the notification bug in Android Messages. Also I made Verizon Messages the default messenger temporarily while I did the above and then afterward I switched it back to Android Messages
I followed almost the exact same steps, except for making it the default messenger. I'll try it again today and see if it works. Thanks!

Hmmm, this also did not work for me. I did make it my default messenger while I read the messages then went to disable and force stop it. I tried many variations of enabling and disabling the app too like blocking notifications, turning off system control, denying all permissions, nothing seems to work. I guess we'll just have to wait for an official fix it seems.
Same here. My wife's has been doing this for the past week. Mine just received the push today for it so now mine is doing it. Hopefully they resolve the issue soon.
Ugh same here again..
Yeah it's happening again now on mine so it does indeed look like we will have to wait for an official fix :-/ I think I might just download an older version apk until they are able to push a fix out for it
Same problem here. Uninstalled and rebooted. Did not install update. Works fine. Will wait for next update release before trying update again.

So, messages on both my Huawei 2 watches no longer opens when pressed. The watches still show messages not the application won't open on the watches.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled messages on my watch. I've cleared cache on phone but still nothing.
Thoughts?

I don't know if you found the answer but I just got a wear24 and you had to go into the app permissions and allow messages permission to SMS and it works
I did figure it out. For some reason even though when I went to play store on watch and said update all, there were still updates available to messages and a few other when I looked at the applications individually. So, I updated them individually and they all then worked.
