Hello all.
I just bought my galaxy s3 today and i've been having some problems. I've done a search throughout the forums and i couldn't find anything on it so i thought i'll give it a shot by posting a thread.
After i receive a text message the notification won't go away. Even after i have read and replied the notification still stays.
Also i have a folder made to keep all the apps that use on the front screen. after pressing the home button to close an app the folder opens up.
i googled these problems and have found questions without any answers. If anyone can shed a light on what the issue is and how to fix it i'd greatly appreciate it. thanks!

Ok, so I get a new text message.
I turn on the phone, notice in the lockscreen someone texted, and see an excerpt of the text. I say, ok, lets slide that messaging icon into the ring and read that message. Well, that message is not there. No message at all from that person. If its someone ive been talking to, it usually shows what i said last only, and their reply is no where to be found, although i just saw it in the lockscreen or the top bar.
I have also tried the handcent sms app to see if it could help me. same thing occurs there too.
ANY idea what could be causing this? It seems to be doing it all the time now. My only way around it is to use google voice only. ugh.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What's the limit you have set for deleting texts after a certain period? Might have something to do with that.
I have this bookmarked from the xda portal. It may be relevant

yeah, ive been using it, but its still a hassle. My txts were coming through just fine the day i got it, then it got wierd afer 48hrs of use.
Thanks for the help, Ill keep looking as well for an answer.
I am a very similar issue, at first I thought I was missing text messages as well.
I got a few keywords from my friend who sent the missing text and when I did a search, the text was there, but they had the wrong time stamp.
For instance missing text was sent at 17:44, when I search I found the text stamped and threaded in as if it was received at 12:40.
The wrong time is variable, I have found other texts that was stamped received the previous day.
Unfortunately I don't have a solution, and quite frankly am getting really frustrated with this problem.

Ok so I understand that this is probably a setting that i must of overlooked but i've been trying to find information about it for the past few days now. A few days back i changed the option to XDA classic but decided i didn't like it so i changed it back. This is around the time i noticed the search button missing and ontop of that its overlaying on the screen messed up. It didn't do this before and i'm not sure what i did or if maybe XDA is just improving their search button and thats why i'm having problems but its starting to bother me big time. I really did search for the answers as best i could without having use of the search button but i came up empty handed. Also if i got to my name it normally brought me right to the statistics where i could find my posts and so forth but now it brings me to About Me. No big deal though since all i need to do its select statistics which is right next to it but when i go to find posts i was in or threads i started i get "vBulletin Message, Searching has been disabled". Who disabled it and if it was me how can i enable it again? I would be very greatful if someone could shed some light on this and tell me what i'm doing wrong. UHGG!! I feel so stupid because i know its probably something small i'm doing wrong.
It's problem w/ board and admins are working to fix it.
Patience.
Huge thanks.
As i said i wasn't sure if it was something i was doing but i noticed it right when i was changing the style around. Thats a huge releif knowing it wasn't from something I did. I have no problem waiting patiently.
Latest distro of RG2X MIUI installed... I can't seem to find any way to adjust or disable the LED notification when an Email/SMS/Call is received/missed. Anyone have any insight?
I like the LED notification, however it seems to destroy my battery life if I don't clear the notification in a reasonable amount of time. I wouldn't think it to be the problem, however if I go without getting notifications, my battery life is great.
TIA
searched the thread came up with this, courtesy of psychoace
Go to the home screen
Hit the search button
Hit menu
Go to search settings
Turn on settings search
Back out
Hit search again and type either trackball or led
You now have control of your capacitive button lights
and maybe next time search the thread or ask in there before making a whole new thread when you don't have to... that is an old solution and MIUI has been updated since so I don't know if it'll work or not... post your results if it worked.

While I should have mentioned in my original post that I DID SEARCH for a solution, I don't see the necessity for the contempt.
I did try the method mentioned, PRIOR to posting this thread. Neither LED or Trackball shows up in the search after enabling the settings search.
In summary, the proposed solution does not work for RG2X MIUI 2.3.24
hmmm I didn't think it would, I don't know what to tell you hopefully someone can help out.
Ok, an update for anyone who may have a similar problem.
I could not get the above mentioned solution to work, at first. After getting a bit frustrated with the matter, I performed a completely clean flash of the ROM again, re downloaded, etc... and now the above solution does work.
Another inexplicable and random quark I suppose.
Thanks for the help, mt3g.
Interesting but glad it worked out

Hello, this is my first post on this site, so I apologize in advance for any mistakes or lack of information I give. I also apologize for the length of this question. I have the istar i9920, its a copy of the Samsung galaxy note, I got it from overseas, its an exact replica, but I have an issue. There is no notification light on it, and that bothers me very much. I did research and found an app called "BLN control", which is supposed to make the keys (menu and back keys) blink as a way of notifying me of a received text message, missed call, voice mail, etc. However, its telling me that the BLN mod is not installed. I have absolutely no idea what to do. It gave me a site to go to, this one, and i read some forums. I clicked on a link and it took me to this app called "SGS kernel flasher" but it said "Error: the flash type of this device is not yet supported!" Please help, I'm getting extremely annoyed. Thank you.
Just updated my GS3 to 4.1.1 about an two hours ago. Everything seemed great with the exception that when I receive text messages or i miss a call they no longer appear on the lock screen like they did before the update. I would be able to swipe the text or the missed call on the lock screen to go directly to it. I've tried everything I could think of to fix this problem. What am I doing wrong? Thank you for any help.

Please search before you ask questions. This has been answered many times....
use Root Explorer to look in "/system/csc" you should see a file named "customer.xml". Rename it to "customer.xml.bak" and this is brings back the lockscreen notification bubbles
