Stock SMS App Problem - myTouch 4G General

The problem started today when I received a text. I use handcent as my default SMS app, so I was surprised to see a grey text notification in my notification bar right next to the handcent notification.
I've had notifications and all other options turned off in the stock messaging app as well, so I don't believe that's where the problem is.
I'm running cyanogen 7 build #9 and have the minimalist theme in place if that matters.

Im having the same issue all of a sudden and I'm in the stock rom! I have all of the notifications off on the stock rom and it still pops up a notification and sound when i get a text! I'm using handcent too! Also my stock app is now not showing contact pictures anymore either. I just want to get rid of it and use handcent

text message and privacy

I just received my inspire yesterday. First I should mention that the desire be other box defender case fit perfect. The big issue I have with this phone and text is even if the phone is security lock and screen lock, incoming text message is still displayed on the phone for everyone to see. I'm surprise that I'm the only one that finds this to be a big problem. I already search Google and crab about this issue and didn't find anything. As I'm typing this post have my screen went black
I use Handcent and it has an option in Notifcation settings to "Show when locked". Turn this off and the pop ups won't display when the screen's locked. I didn't use the stock messaging app as I've always loved Handcent. If you choose to use handcent, disable notifications in the stock messaging program all together
yeah use a3rd party mms app, such as handcent where you have more options and control about how your phone notifies you.

Handcent problems

Got a weird bug that's started today. When I receive a message I have my little screen bubble with a smiley in it for handcent and no a black and white envelope and my ring tone plays twice too? I disabled notifications in the stock app so no idea why I get this other notification? It stays there until i clear it or click, and clicking just takes me to handcent??
Anyone help?
Just upgraded to CM7 on HTC Desire HD btw
do you have any other message app installed on your phone that shows the messages or otherwise?
oh and if you have handcent set up as default message application, that will be why it goes to handcent. to me it sounds like another app notifying you. one that comes to mind for me would be pure messenger widget. or another app that uses multiple messaging methods (e-mail, sms etc)

Check and make sure you have notifications checked in the messaging and phone apps.

The stock text messaging app only displays notifications in the notification bar. If you want a pop-up message when you get texts then take a look at GO SMS... it's a great app.
Sane thing goes for missed calls. There will be an icon in the notification bar but that's it. I'm not sure if there are any apps to show a pop-up for missed calls...

Try MissedIt from google market. I use that with WidgetLocker.

Hangouts SMS Notification not going away

Hey all, when I get an SMS with hangouts and I read it the notification doesnt go away. The only way to remove it is by swiping it away.
This can't be normal. How is everyone else behavior?
Yeah, good question! I'm having to keep swiping also! Plus, I miss the SMS unread count!

Same issue, switched to Handcent but can't use Lightfloe so going back.
I have the same issue. You have to go back into the home screen (list of all the people that you texted) of the hangouts app in order for the notification to get cleared. Really annoying...I installed Textra and am loving it so far.
This needs to have more attention brought to it. How could a messaging app miss such basic functionality that it can't clear its notification when a text is read but not swiped back to the main messages screen? It's really annoying having a persistent notification for a message I've already read.
Suffer the same problem myself.. have to hit the notification and go back into the messages screen to get it to clear..
