Help Text message # out of sync.

On the icon for my text messages it shows the number of new ones I have. It's showing one even though all of them are read already.

I have deleted all the messages off of my phone and cleared the data and cache in the Messaging app. Rebooted of course. It still shows 1 unread message. Any idea how to fix this?

Go to Settings>Application Manager. Move over to All and scroll down to BadgeProvider. Select it and Clear cache (if not grayed out), Clear Data and Force stop. Reboot the phone and it should be clear.
