Unread SMS in an Empty Inbox

[bblue]

The picture says it all really, 0 messages and 1 unread. How did I manage that?

Any ideas how to fix?

This is a wm5 bug and there was a tool that fixed it in one of the fourms.

Yes a uploaded file, I tried search and found nothing (maybe you will have more luck)

Sounds right but search wont find it (for me that was).

Has anybody seen that thread so that I can post it to wiki, seems like a good tool.

That file did not work for me. It ran, said there were no problems under text/mms/email (I don't use email so that was empty anyway) but I still had the error. Even tried after a reboot and it did not work. I do keep all of my old messages so it may have had a problem with the amount that are in there.

I did fix it however. I used PIMBackup to back everything up. Then restored from the backup using the default option which deletes all existing messages. This seems to reset the counters and it all works fine.

Hope this helps anyone else with the same problem.
