How to: Disable Message Notifications

[ddaren]

I currently use Handcent SMS to control my text messaging. I used to have a G1 but got it replaced with a MyTouch Slide. On my G1, there was an option in the settings that allowed me to disable notifications from the system's original messaging app.

However, I want to disable it since I get a notification from Handcent SMS and the original app. Both ringtones go off and there's 2 notifications at the top.

Open the native messaging app press menu press settings scroll down to notifications and uncheck and finito...

so what happens when you uncheck the notifications but the message still shows up on the message icon on your home screen?
