Thread: Message Notification does not go away

Hey guys, I've got a message notification on my Storm that just won't go away. I've scrolled thru all my messages but there's nothing unopened. I even selected today's date and did a 'Mark Prior Opened'. I haven't installed any other themes, but I went ahead and reset it, anyway (now I have to redo all of my folders and everything), but that message notification is still there. I even removed all of my email accounts and added them back one by one, so I have no idea where to look next.

Does anyone know how to get rid of that message??!?? appreciate any help you can give....

Thanks

what does the message icon look like? is it slanted or not?>

Thanks for the quick reply...

Its that message icon in the top left corner of the screen, right under the battery life. Its got a yellow envelope and says I have 1 message, if that helps. Its not slanted or anything

ok.. have you tried the old battery pull? Physical battery pull?

Oh yeah, I tend to do that every few days or so, anyway, and I've had this message indicator for almost a month now..

ok.. WOW!! I would try completely wiping your phone and reloading the os.. only when you do the restore dont restore you messages and see if that gets it taken care of

yeah, i was trying to avoid doing major surgery like that, but i guess my OCD leaves me with no other option. i'll have to find some time to do this, probably not for a few days anyway.

thanks for your help and the quick replies, i'll reply back to this thread with the results...

Before you do the wipe, are you using any custom theme? Did you checked your saved messages? Did you do a search using the dearch option on the phone?

Oh my god I could kiss you! It was in my saved messages, I'm sure I accidentally saved it rather than deleting it. The message was over a month old.

Thank you so much for making up for my idiocy!
