Texting Problem with HTC Touch Pro 2 (NOT 2016 issue)

[babaoreilymike]

I recently got upgraded to a TP2 to replace my TP1. While I love the phone, I notice whenever Im texting back and forth with someone in a chat, after I exit, it will say I have 3-4 new messages on the msg icon, I then have to go back into the text chat each time and back out to make the number go down to 3-2-1- till its gone. Is there some setting or something to correct this? My TP1 never showed me any new messages if I was already in the chat and backed out of it, but this one continues to until I go in and out of that individual chat the number of times for each message received (while I was still in the chat) does that make sense? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Again, this is not the 2016 bug, the new message notification goes away after I go back into the chat and back out of it, but I just figure if Im in the chat, it shouldnt show me new messages, like the TP1 did

It's been reported before. The easy workaround is to use the mark all as read option in the menu.
