Have you had to do the this fix multiple times? Or does it work the first time and never again??

 

[iamlisa]

Yes, this did work. Thank you very much.

After trying tons of stuff this worked for me, thanks you just saved my sanity

I tried this trick too and it worked after my s3 started showing phantom tx mssd notifications go to applications manager then ALL APPS then BADGE PROVIDER and clear data then restart handset..worked 1st time

some quick googling revealed some GS3 owners with similar complaints.



Above was the suggestion. I have no idea if it works or if it is safe to do. Perhaps useful... ? I don't know.

Totally worked for me and my GNote2 has been like this for months, I just learned to live with it after trying to do so many things to fix it. YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!

This is the only way and the correct solution. Step 1 for the resolution for this kind of problem is the reply given .

UGH! It didn't work for me or my son. We both have Gnote2's my problem is in the email notification drop down window. It says I have 9 unread messages.

It occurred when I accidentally deleted a couple emails and went to my trash folder and copied them back. I have sence tried:
marking everything in every email account as unread, then again read
cleared the phone's cache
the email cache
tried the badge provider's trick and rebooted.
I've done a battery pull.
Went into Android assistant and tried it all there. Nothing works.

Any clues?
And when we figure THAT one out, my son's phone shows a negative 1 as in (-1) on his email desktop icon. (I suggested he needed to write home more often, he was not amused.)
