Recurring notifications

[maxheadroom]

I have the HTC incredible and had built up a lot of texts. When I deleted all the texts from my wife, it took a minute it so for them to delete. As I was waiting for them to delete, she texted. Now I keep getting a notification for that same text. Anytime I delete a text, the notification pops up. When I click on the text in the notification, it won't come up because it got deleted with the rest. How do I fix this problem?

I hate to tell you this but my past experience with that circumstance required a wipe of my phone......HOWEVER, I am not carrying your model nor am I familiar but I have seen that issue on other devices. I use to get them allllll the time because my Husband use to receive a text from friends with a virus installed on a picture file or oddity like that.

Go into the settings menu: applications find the messaging app and clear cache. If that doesn't work clear data.

Do what JS says, and if it doesn't work we might want a little more information -- are you rooted? Are you running the stock app or a 3rd-party apps like ChompSMS or Handcent?

clear data for Dialer Storage. This is where text messages are stored.

Clearing data for dialer storage didn't work either.

Have you tried having your wife send you the *exact same* text message and then deleting it once you get the duplicate notification?

 

[maxheadroom]

I haven't tried that yet, but I will when she gets off work.

If all else fails, try installing a 3rd party SMS program.

Having her send the same text didn't work either.

This sucks. Why should I have to install a 3rd party app when I've already got a messaging app. Are there any benefits to using a different messaging app?
