Default New message indicator problem

Please Login to Remove!

AT&T BB Bold
OS: v4.6.0.297

Updated to the new AT&T OS last weekend but noticed a problem that I can't explain. When my phone is holstered and I receive a SMS, MMS, PIN, email, or BB Messenger I unholster and view the message. Once finished viewing the message, it doesn't matter if I hit the return button or the end button, as soon as I do that and scroll up to the Messages icon, it shows a red asterisk denoting a new message, however there is no new message. A battery pull did not solve this issue. Anyone else having this issue?

I'm actually getting this issue after i receive a new Visual Voicemail message, seems to be like a bug!

I have a very similar issue which also started once I activated Visual Voicemail. It doesn't matter if the phone is holstered or not, but after a Voicemail has been received, and then one or more emails have been received, reading/marking-as-opened/deleting the email(s) will not clear the new message indicator.

What works for me is opening the all/combined Messages list, then exiting the list. This action (of viewing the all/combined Messages list) clears the new message indicator.

Once another email is received however, the new message indicator remains "on" until the above is repeated.

A battery-pull or soft reset (alt-shift-del) will resolve the problem until another visual voicemail is received, then the cycle starts over again.

In captthomason's case, I suspect the permanently unread message message was the registration notification of the handheld on the network. I had an unexplained unread message before I even installed Visual Voicemail, and found the unread message in the all/combined Messages list.

Noticed the same behavior after activating VVM. I'm on v4.6.0.303.

I'm still having this problem with .304. Any solutions out there? Looks like this has been going on for some time and may be related to visual voicemail.
