Disabling the stock message app notification

[Guest batch_2001]

Hi all,

Just picked up a play for £129.95 from Phone 4 U to replace my old Pulse :)

However really want to use chomp sms on it. It works fine, but I can't find a setting to disable the notification that you have X new messages when you first wake the phone before unlocking the screen with a swipe. If I go into the "apps launcher" (or whatever that is called!) the stock Message icon has a bubble with the number of unread messages in it. I guess the two are linked. This is despite having read the"unread" SMS using Chomp.

Obviously I've disabled notification from the stock message app settings. Can't see anything else to do, so wondered if I've missed something. Or whether the stock app has been Sony'd.

Its not the end of the world. It mildly annoying.

Thanks in advance.

Go SMS Pro comes with an option to disable the stock SMS. Maybe you should give that a try?
