So today I flashed the new build of Beans Custom Stock (B8). I was wondering if anyone else has a problem with the number showing unread text messages.
I saw some threads where people tried different things for different devices but none of those general hints helped. I tried clearing the cache and davlek cache in CMW, I also tried clearing the settings for messaging in the applications manager but that didnt help. I should note that all of these methods did indeed remove the unread count HOWEVER as soon as I receive another text message its stuck again.
If anyone has any advice please let me know! Its annoying having an unread message count all the time.
Thanks guys!

Don't know if this will help or not, but I have seen this mentioned before and it was recommended to go into Dev options and make sure that "do not keep activities" was not checked.
Good luck

It's getting kind of annoying that I would have to click on 'clear notifications' even after reading those SMSs... any idea how to turn this off the moment I preview or read them? I'm using HandCent and I can't seem to find the proper setting. Appreciate any help.
never mind. figured it out.

Ok you ask for help, then figure it out so why not share with everyone the answer. It could help someone else looking to do the same thing.
Haha... here we go:
http://www.handcent.com/Faq.php#TAG_DEFAULT
I can receive texts no problem, but when I go to type a new text (and this may be a keyboard issue) it allows me to type one or two letters, before the keyboard just goes away off the screen and I have to wait a few seconds and then click back into the textbox in order to continue typing.
This issue is occurring for me on the MB860. Has anyone else experienced this or know of a workaround?
That sometimes happens, maybe it's just an android bug, I'd suggest you get Hacker's keyboard it is very good and never crashes.
Hope this helps
If the problem still persists get another texting app.

Just to make sure, is it This one?
EDIT --
Also, I tried with Handcent as well as the default text app and the keyboard issue existed in both.

Yes sir, just download it, it's very straight forward, you get an app that tells you how to do it

AWESOME!!
Now I am running into one other small problem (and this I am sure is user error).
When I click on the phone and look at my contacts I am showing the same contact multiple times. But if I click on the 'contacts' icon, it shows accurate contacts/numbers etc.
What setting changes this?

Is it like you click on a name, and it shows you another persons' contacts or is it just you wrote it more than once?
If I helped pls send me a thanks

It's like I entered Jo Jones --- 1111111111 in there 5 times, and it does this with multiple contacts.

Well, you should eiter reset your contacts, get another contacts app, delete the multiple contacts or I dunno . Maybe a restart will help

I didn't see a way to delete the duplicate contacts. Anytime I click on them it calls, or if I click the settings button there is only an add option.
And a phone reboot didn't work That was the 1st thing I attempted, lol

You should get another contatcs app and import them, you should try long pressing your contacts

Long pressing does nothing. Let me try to use the proper terminology here...my "Dialer" is showing incorrect contact info but my "Contact" app is showing the correct contact info.
Should I try to get another Dialer...is that possible?
Oh, I don't have a phone that calls but maybe you should get another dialer apk like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.contapps.android.dialer&hl=en

Do I need to use TiBu to uninstall my current dialer, then install the one you linked from the play store?

I think you can have two dialers at once. If not just remove the old one. Try installing it first cause without a dialer your os may malfunction.

I will give that a twirl and see how it works out. I am currently using CWM to make a full back-up just in case I get a little to trigger happy and mess something up.
EDIT ---
How do I set this as the default Dialer?

Is there anyway for me to use the Dialer from my BLUR Rom? Or maybe a better way to word it would be the Dialer from the Stock MB860 ROM?

I actually decided to get to the root of this problem and I took a look at my google contacts since I was loading the contacts from google. Somehow all my contacts were duplicated (some triplicated) in google contacts. I updated google contacts and now they are only pulling in once.
Now I still can't figure out how to modify a contact in the Dialer that ships with CM10.1 epinter tho.
Also -- Is there a way to keep your phone brightness @ max when it is charging? I can't seem to get that setting right either.
Try this maybe: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightness&hl=en

I didnt receive any Killer-Message but I Know what you talking about, i try to do that on a group but didnt work.
I solve my problem, maybe it was that message but im not very sure because my messages backup was corrupted and i just delete all of my messages and start it again. I found on google that i could fix my messages backup but the to do list were to difficult to me and i just forget it and start again.
But thanks for the feedback, maybe that message causes the corruption of my conversations backup.

Hello there!
I'm having problems again with my WhatsApp, after i started again from 0 and now it's happening again. My WhatsApp crash everyday single day and loose all of my messages since last backup at 4AM. This is annoying, i complained on WhatsApp Feedback but it didn't work they never respond me.
If anybody here has a similar issue please tell me What can i do. :fingers-crossed:
Before the upgrade to Lollipop the email application would predict destinations based on emails received, even if I didn't have them in my contacts.
For instance If I received a mail from someone new called "John Doe" even if I didn't have it in my contacts. If I started a new mail and started typing in the To: "Joh... I would get a suggestion for this guy address or similar ones, including the matching contacts in my contact list.
Is there any way to retrieve this behaviour? Why has Sony/Google remove such thing? In a day to day work environment is very annoying to have to add every single person I receive emails from to my contact list.
Thanks in advance!
It is not removed. And always after a major upgrade it is best to do a factory reset.
Seriously that's the only option?
We have several cases in the office, including boss, and I'd like to keep android, but if what you say is true... sounds very unreliable for work.

Give it a try, crossing from KK to L is a major firmware upgrade. A factory reset is necessary.
My email app works great, all the functions.
It is not unreliable, it's a must, after that it will be ok.
So I recommend a clean install.
P.S.
You can try to go to Settings : Apps : All : Email - and clear data, before you follow my first advice.
Thanks for the advice, if it works for you, certainly worth a try, at lease clearing data, even if I have to configure all the accounts again )

sorry for the delay, as I had the testing mobile getting fixed. As you say it works, or so it does with a mobile recently reset to factory status.
Thanks again for your time.
Now I'm into trying to find how to make whatsapp not using the lolillpop semi-drop down notifications, just to show with the icon in the notification bar as it did in kitkat (lollipop changed many things indeed).

No problem, I had a little vacation myself.
About the notification, try a third party app from PlayStore.

It's really the new "heads-up" notification method in lollipop, that is mandatory with no way to disable it unless you use a modded solution.
Problem is our phone has little modding yet. Will keep an eye for options.
I've searched all over and cannot find a way to do this so i decided to post a question and see if anyone can help.
On the Tasker app i want to make my phone automatically reply to a received text message from a specific contact one time only. right now as it stands, my auto response will keep being sent to the contact until i manually disable the task. is there a way to have it only send once and disable on it's own??
also, does anyone know where i can find a list of all the variables and their functions?? or maybe a link that you guys found helpful when using this app. so far what i've been able to make it do is amazing but i know there is so much more that i need to learn. any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
