Problem with email lockscreen notifications - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I am using the stock email application and have been getting problems with email notification numbers being wrong on the lockscreen. I have 2 email accounts set up and the lockscreen maybe be saying that I have for instance 5 unread emails but actually I have none.
Anyone else having this and know how to get over it? How does the lockscreen get its information? It can't be from the email app itself as the 2 don't tally.

It gets the numbers from the email service, the same the app uses. Likely a bug on Sony side here, report it on their forums.

Seems odd as the app will be saying '0' unread mail, if I check my yahoo acount via the computer it will say '0' however the lockscreen notification might say 10 or whatever. Had this on gingerbread and now on ics. How is it that nobody else has noticed or raised this? Seems the only option is to switch off that notification so it doesn't keep telling me I have something I dont.

YES!!!
I also have this problem!
From what I can work out, it seems to be something to do with when you download your emails to your pc.
for me, the unread count worked ok (from fresh firmware flash) UNTIL i went on my pc and used outlook on there to see my emails, after this point, the phones email count went haywire. It seems that the phone is not taking into account that previous emails have now gone from the server, and into your pc's email program. so the 'unread' count keeps accumulating.
However, if i exclusively use the email app in the phone, the unread count remains correct (as i did this for a while while i had no internet at home)
It may be the phone, it may be outlooks settings, it may be my email provider? i don't know, it is bloody annoying though!
I get my emails through my own domain name which is hosted by one.com, and its set up as an imap account, i'm quite sure it does the same when set up as a pop account...

Fixed for me: Notifications has a little bug, if you have unread email in the delete box then you will have notification as new or unread email. goto delete box either empty them or mark all read

in the stock messaging app -> settings -> multimedia messages -> auto retrieve .. which I think only applies to MMS not SMS
As far as I've seen, there is only one place to control notifications for the stock HTC messaging app. In the stock messaging app -> Settings -> Notifications .. I would double check all the notifications are turned off in there. No notifications should appear if all those options are unchecked/disabled.
If you're still receiving notifications after double checking they are all turned off, then it would appear HTC didn't code something right in their apk and that is definitely a bug!
Hope the clarification helps! Let us know how it goes!
Yes sounds like a bug. What are my OPTIONS? everything was just like you explain only auto retrieve on mms nothing for sms

What would happen if we deleted or freeze the messaging apk? I'm having the same problem as well

Open Messages>Menu>Settings>Notifications>Received Notifications *uncheck*
That should be all you need to do. If you are getting more than one notification it may be a different app. You said that something pops up, stock messenger doesn't pop up. Do you have SMS popup installed by chance?
I removed mms.apk from system apps and everything is fine now.

That is not an option only for mms not sms

IMHO the stock email app sucks, switch to K-9. It actually works.
Will do. Trying it now. See what I think. Thank you

Facebook Notifications question. Please help?

Does anybody know how to properly setup facebook notifications under settings in Facebook? I used to get the Facebook symbol in my notifications bar. The "F". Now when someone comments on my post or wall it sends me an email instead. I know you can set it up to send it like an email, but prefer it like it used to. It would put the Facebook symbol "F" in the notifications bar. How do I set this up again. If someone can take a screen shot of there setup I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Delivery report sound disable

Hi all.
Have rooted my s3 with the omega rom and using go launcher. Wanted to know, after having searched xda as well as Google, how to either - disable the deliver report sound OR disable the deliver report screen wake up. Its annoying when constantly texting a conversation to have to discard the notification of every sms received.
I like the implementation of the stock ics delivery report (just adds a tick mark to the sms) but the stock ics messaging app doesn't search threads by person. Only searches the messages. (So if there's a mod for that to enable search threads by person name as well then perfect, will ditch Samsung mms/sms app in a heartbeat).
Thanks
Kunal.

Try other sms apps in play store.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
True but other apps don't replace the Samsung stock app. They just overlay it thus wasting precious resources. (As I understand it, please correct me if I'm wrong.)

Give it a try. Android quite good in handling resources. If it really cripple your phone, then just uninstalled it and find other solutions.

Have already tried Go sms or whatever the name is. Best sms I've found is the stock ics app but as stated in my 1st post, it for some reason doesn't search by threads only by messages. so if I have a thread with you, a search by your name won't yeild the thread as a result. only such messages where your name is mentioned will be shown. If there's a mod for that then that's perfect. Much better, lighter and faster app than the stock Samsung app.

Any senior member knows a hack for this? Come on I'm surprised the delivery report tone and wake screen hasn't irritated anyone else?

It has iiritated me too
I, on the other hand, prefer to use any other SMS than the stock one, but any other program will not disable the Delivery Reports.
It is very annoying that everytime you send out a message you get a "message delivered" reply, that I have to keep erasing every once in a while.
I have posted several times, in several forums, looking for an answer to this but apparently everybody enjoys knowing their messages reached their destination, as nobody seems to care.

To disable Delivery Notifications open Messages app --> Settings --> SMS Settings ---> Uncheck delivery notifications...
That disables delivery notifications. I like to know that the message is delivered. I just don't like that it sounds out like a normal sms and wakes up my screen. Just a tick on the sent message or a silent delivery report without the screen wake up is perfect. (Like in the stock ics mms app. However in the stock ics mms app one can't search for threads only for messages, while in the Samsung mms app thats possible).

This post is very old but if anyone had the same problem, just use the app "Messaging Notification". It solves the problem.
Thanks! This app is great! To recive proper funcionality I set "Silent" a ringtone in SMS app (to keep showing the SMS in notification bar) and everything else (the ringtones) I set in this app.

Contacts

Why do some of my contacts show up when I'm typing the names in via text to message them show as fake email address? I've sorted my contacts I don't how many times and everything is legit and correct
No misspelled names,wrong numbers anything like that? I'm on stock Rom that's not corrupt. ..my contacts are linked with my facebook but I've unlinked them in the past and no change?
It's very annoying trying to text "mom" and it comes up as an email I've never seen or heard of before
Or I try to add multiple contacts to a mass text and the entire message never sends
