Text message icon won't turn off

Hello, Every time I get a message, there's a little envelope icon on the top showing me to check my text message box.. Once it reaches its limit, the envelop will flash telling me to empty my box.. Now I have no text message in my box and the envelop is still there and it won't go away.. Same for the bell icon representing alarm..when I cancel my alarm calls..the bell remains also.. Please help me..it's annoying..

There's a little symbol for an envelope -- how do I retrieve the message?

Envelope usually indicated a text message. Usually, if you have unread text messages your little envelope will have a number one or number two, etc in red on it.

You will need to go to your text message icon to open your text message screen.. It might be called *Inbox* but it's not email only text or SMS messages.

Hi When I write text in messenger, I press enter but my text does not appear in the chat box Any clues? Thanks Michael

Hello,

This is all I can think of. Is there any chance that your text color is set to white?

The way to check the text color setting is to click on the text icon (a capital T with a box around it). And then click on the little color palette icon and check to see what color is selected.

Also changes in settings some times require you to close and open a window to take effect.

Restart the program to see if that helps.

My display shows the voice mail icon, but when I check my voice mail I do not have one. I have power my phone off and on. Also I have powered the phone off and removed the battery for 15 min. but the icon...

There could be a software issue here... Although that little envelope icon also is displayed for unopened text messages. With that said, there may be a text somewhere that you did not open and thought you did. You may want to run through your text messages and see if any of them are unopened.

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/brandon_156682b88afabb53

My home screen shows a flashing envelope icon even though my sim contacts memory is nowhere near full

This icon indicates that the SIM card's own text message storage is full. This doesn't actually cause problems on the 5800 because it stores its messages in the phone's own memory, but the envelope can look a bit annoying.
To get rid of the flashing envelope:

1. On the standby screen press the white menu button.

2. Select "Messaging"

3. Select "Options"

4. Select "SIM Messages"

5. Delete some or all of the messages from the SIM messages folder using the Options menu.

Message icon appears but no message?

There could be a message you looked at and backed out of and it's still being seen as new... Scroll through all of you messages and give it a look... Good Luck

Text Message Icon in Toolbar and no new messages

Found the answer!
"The icon is for a web alert. Go to your message section and go to the web alerts section. It will open up to the message where you will be able to download your ringtone."

Its in the web alerts! Never thought to check there...
