VoiceMail Notification - HTC Excalibur

I've got a Dash running WM6.
It always shows that I've got 1 voice mail message. If I have 5, it shows 1. If my voice mail box is empty, it shows 1.
Does anyone know what controls this? Is it a registry key? If so, can you tell me which one?
Thanks in advance!

Hi, did you found the solution for this, I have the same problem with my Excalibur with Ricky's 6.1 ROM

Thats weird, try to restart the phone. Also, what network are you guys running on your phones?

I had the same problem here, but it was after I had installed on of the many weather programs here.
It was getting on my nerves so bad i reflashed and it still showed up.
Eventually, I called myself, left a message, and promptly went in and deleted it... Then it was fixed.
Who knows.

That is weird that you had to do that. I also had to reflash my phone because of so many weather applications that my whole phone got screwed up badly.

Same thing here, go to HKCU\System\State\Messages\Vmail\Total\Unread and check the count, if it has a count then set it to 0.

Hi showaco,
Thanks for the tip, this just remove the icon on the top but on the panel still shows the new voicemail notification.

I had the same thing and that worked to fix it. I think i figured out that if you check your voicemail and then lose signal before your phone gets the response from your voicemail to dismiss voicemail notification, it will stay until you get another voicemail and keep signal after you disconnect. Who knows though.

Panel Notification - Voicemail
Anyone has found the solution for this problem?
I have the same problem in my Samsung i637 with WM6.5

Text messaging driving me CRAZY

ok, i just got this phone yesterday, and its AWESOME. Just one minor but VERY annoying problem tho, whenever i send out text messages, it will be displayed in the correct time, but whenever i recieve text messages, it will be 4 hours before the actual time... It seems its been set to a different time zone or something... Anyways, does anyone know how to fix that?..
Thanks.
oh and is there anyway i can find out which rom/country my phone is currently using? I bought it unlocked from a local chinese retailer, and supposedly they get all their stuff from hongkong, is there anyway to check?
anyone? bump
it depends where is the person which sends you the sms, as a matter of fact if the person is in paris ou you are in London, then the message will be displayed with GMT -1

I had the same issue, I apply the summer time fix followed by the df_timestamp_fix.cab I attached. (Thanks to the author, it's floating in the forums if you search for sms timestamp or something along those lines if your curious to know what the cab does)
I am not sure the summer time is needed but it work for me.
The issue is with a "Trust time zone" Reg key. From what I understand, your provider applies the GMT -4 and your phone do it a second time, hence the time difference.
Hope this work as well as on my phone
wow if i was anywhere near u i would go over and kiss u, thanks a lot man! I didn't know the correct term for it was "timestamp" and i been searching all over the forum and came up with nothing. Thanks again! gonna go try it now
the unfixable unread count is even worse.
at the moment i have 8 unread SMS messages i cannot make go away. even when i use a CAB to handle this things go back to the way they were after the next text comes in.

I haven't had that problem at all and I do alot of texting! Sometimes it'll have a 1 by it when I though I read all my messages but I really didn't.
Did you try disabling touchflo from today screen in settings rebooting and then re-enabling it?

This is annoying, I use to have it on stock rom with my TP1, the genius cook made some work around work so I haven`t been bothered since...

I only had that prob once on my TyTn2... or was it my Prophet...? Anyway, try this file. It worked for me before.
Not working.... Just tried it.
this was exactly what i was looking for.
thanks SO MUCH.
EDIT: doesnt work.
Try this
Start/Settings/Text Messaging Change to Classic and X out.
Go into your text messages and you will probably find the culprit in bold. Once you open it, that should reset the counter. Go back and switch to threaded.
First, make sure local time setting is correct (as above posts)
If still persist, try reghack; open phm regedit or resco or else, navigate to HKCU/System/State/sms/Unread, change the Count value to 0. Exit regedit, press power button to suspend your device, wait 5 secs, then softreset. Please try and feedback.
The timestamp_fix.cab did not work for me. The MTS_RecvTimeStamp.cab did the trick.
link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=159852&d=1235328543
This didn't work either for me.
I noticed if HTC Messeging is installed, the cabs will work, if its not, they wont work.
But HTC msging is slow.
anyone with a solution for the timestamp issue?

Assigning distinct incoming SMS sound to contact

Hi all,
I've searched the forums up and down for this, but couldn't find an answer anywhere.
Isn't there a way to assign a different sound to a particular contact's incoming SMS message event? I looked all over every "Edit Contact" option I could find, but no joy.
Before I got my Verizon TP2 a couple months ago, I was using an old Moto Q on WinMo 5 which had this feature. So I'm surprised I don't see a way to do this here. I'm running everything stock.
I hope I'm not missing something brutally obvious. Am I?
Thanks for reading.
Unfortunately I don't believe this is something WM can do by default. I've checked all of the sounds/notification settings and contact settings and don't see anything for custom alert sounds by contact. I too would love this feature, but unless there's some mod out there that can do it I don't think we'll be able to.
I know this software http://www.watchflag.com/home.do but I never tryed because I don't like programs that runs in background.. If you try it let me know!
Some of the old versions of Watchflag ran continuously but that's not true anymore. It launches when you get a message, checks to see if it should alert and then shuts down. Maybe that's what you meant -- just wanted to clarify!

SOLVED - New SMS constantly showing

Yesterday my phone started showing that I had 1 new text message on the "messages" tab of touchflo, even though I hadn't and there was nothing in the notification tray. I deleted all texts from all folders and rebooted and it is still showing!
I recently installed Advanced Config but have uninstalled it and no change. Any ideas?
Using stock 6.5 ROM (WWE) version 1.86.401.0 (67102). Thanks.
UPDATE: solved and already posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=564070&highlight=unread
Does anyone search FIRST?
search for a program called fixunreadcount.exe, run it on your phone and it will fix the problem.

Sorry had initially searched quickly, but not using the best terms obviously, and many posts seemed to point to email and were couple of years old.
fixunreadcount.exe and a soft reset did the trick.
Still can't find why it happened in the first place.

Phone shows 1 unread message, I cant find it

My phone shows I have 1 unread message. It shows both on the sense ui sms button, then on the 'Inbox' under the folder select.
Problem is I cant find any unread messages. Nothing is highlighted in the usual way, and I just can't get rid of the notification.
I've tried everything from turning the phone off, to opening every message grouping in my inbox..
Any ideas?
Did you check your deleted items?

It's called "ghost message"....search and you'll see that that so far it's an uncurable illness on many ROMS

Thanks for the info.
That's kinda lame.. Oh well, I was looking to upgrade to a new rom anyway...
This is not uncurable. Search google or xda or modaco for a tool named fixunreadcount.exe, launch and you'll be fixed. send pm if you don't find it.

I have this problem since I installed new HTC message version..
Never had before..

Yes, there are plenty of threads on this issue and 'fixunreadcount' worked for me when it happened (just the once so far). I have attached but can't remember where I found it so sorry can't give credit where it's due.
couldn't it also be due to the SMS soring problem that HTC has a fix for on thier website? I know that drove me nutz for a while until i found there was a fix for it.

[Q] Text Message Notification Reply button gone?

Hello Everyone,
I've lurk around the forums often. I just reflashed my HTC Tilt 2 last night with the new At&t ROM. I had the 1.59 version, or something similar to that. I tried searching the forums, but I'm only getting results on how to disable the annoying Message Sent notification.
There are many things I liked from the old ROM, but one thing that is really bugging me is the new texting box and text message notification.
Before I go into detail, On my old ROM I disabled TouchFlo 3d, and on the new ROM I've done the same, I disabled HTC Sense from the today screen.
With the old text notification popup of the sms you could see the message briefly on the bottom and being able to choose to view or dismiss.
With the new reflashed ROM I get the text notification popup of the sms, but there is no option to view or Dismiss, I only get an option to Hide the text.
is this a common problem with the new rom? I haven't seen it in any threads so far, or maybe I'm not looking hard enough.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you
No one else is having this issue with the new ROM?

I 'think' this is a WM6.5 thing, and not a at&t rom issue. The Windows default Today screen has a nice text messages display on the screen. Maybe thats why they felt neccessary to remove the "reply" and "menu" options in the notification pop up?

This is an issue with the new AT&T Rom w/sense. I posted about it in 2-3 threads and have had 2-3 other people confirm that this is happening after the Rom update, so I know it's not a software issue, plus I did a hard reset today and the issue is still there.
I want a fix for this too, but haven't seen anyone come up with one yet.
It sucks to get our messages and only be able to hide them, not hit the "view" button so we can reply right there.
Are you sure that the AT&T ROM did not upgrade you from WM 6.1 to 6.5?

i dont recall the menu/reply option being on the pop up after the 6.1-6.5 transition for my T-Mobile,so i second this guy
At&t has had 6.5 on all its roms for this phone, likely cause it was the last US carrier to get this phone. ;D
it's the new rom, cause this was a feature on the original rom released from at&t, I have both saved to jump back and forth when needed.
oh yeah, this issue is listed in the tweaks/issues , etc thread for the new at&t rom too.
I'm having the exact same issue. Can someone point me to that tweaks/issues thread that (hopefully) has the fix?
