Blank Notifiaction Message

[RetroFlux]

Hello,

I am having a problem with notification messages, on the home screen I have 'notification' in the bottom left corner when I select it the box where the notification info should be pops up but its empty- just an empty white box and the only option I have on it is 'hide'. When I tap on 'hide' the box disappears but it still says 'notification' and I cant seem to get rid of it, I have tried restarting and switching off completely and removing the battery but when I power it back up its still there and it wont go away. :mad:

Anybody else getting this or any idea of how to get rid of it?

Thanks.

I also experienced the same problem. For my case, it's related to the lock/password setting. Everytime when I restart my Touch Dual, it will bring the password skin (of course I set it up intentionally for security reason). Then, the blank message comes up after I put my passwords.

The only way to remove it is to go to the setting/lock and input my password again. Then the blank notification message will go.........strange bug anyway.

I hope this help.

Thanks, I'll give it a try and yes it is a strange bug- do you use the autolock feature?

[chris_khho]

yes. I set it as every 5 minutes. It will lock.

Cheers,

Same bug here on the 20 key EU version...

Just wanted to say that chris_khho's solution of locking and unlocking does workaround the problem- thanks. Still annoying though. I'm also on a 20 key European version.

Actually, you do not need to enter the password for this workaround. Go to Settings/Lock. Click on Menu/Cancel. The blank notification will go away.

I'm using Lock/Password. To remove blank message (after restart) just prepare new SMS with no recipient and jump to message body, then cancel message... This removes stupid blank notification....

I've written a script (works with Mortscript from http://mort.sto-helit.de) to remove the blank notification. I save this as remove.mscr and place a shortcut to it in windows\start menu. I'm new to Mortscript so if anyone can improve this script, please let me know.


# remove blank notification
Run "\windows\ctlpnl.exe" , "cplmain.cpl,1"
Sleep(500)
SendSpecial("RightSoft")
SendSpecial("Up")
SendSpecial("CR")

This message disapears also when u change input type in any application.
from xt9 to abc or whatever.

This Bug seems to be related to devicelock and exchange btw.

Without i don't have this problem.

If your using Exchange then it forces you to use the lock due to security settings...at least on mine it gave me a message once i set up my exchange that it had to force security policies on my phone and then had to set the lock. does anyone know of a hack/workaround to disable to required lock with exchange?
