Thread: Flag in Messages icon doesn't go away

The flag in my messages icon on the home screen doesn't always go away when I clear or read my messages. If i go to the menu screen and then come back to the home screen then it will go away. I thought it may be theme related but it is not. Every theme I put on does the same thing. Anyone else
have this problem?

No I haven't. Have you tried a battery pull? If that doesn't work, try resending service books. Does it do it for all emails/messages or one particular one? And the last resort, yet wiping and reinstalling OS.

I have had that happen on ocassion and found a battery pull will eliminate the problem, I noticed it happening if I received more than one email and didnt open all of them and just deleted them. For some reason it wanted to think there was still an unopened email there. I dont see that if I open all emails before deleting them.

Striker I have had that same problem from the day the storm launched back in what...November? It happens to me for no particular reason either. I tend to think it is theme related butI'm sure it's a combination of many things. Right now I'm running the new BBOS theme that was just released and haven't seen it at all. I'm very surprised that you haven't got tons more folks agreeing with you on this as well? Sorry I don't have a clue how to fix it but at least you now know you're not the only one.

I've been experiencing the same thing since I installed my first additional theme when I switch back to the origanal it does not happen, so IMHO it is theme related. yes it does reset after a battery pull.........

I think some of the theme makers said it was API related or plazmic glitch or something...Sorry can't remember for sure. I have ran some themes, but only had that happen with one or two, but most were fine.

In my experience this has always been a theme issue which is why i switched back to the original storm theme long ago...

easiest way to resolve the issue is switch to the stock theme and make a batt pull, after that you can go back to your custom theme...
