- Was the BB powered on when you pulled the battery? That is a soft reset, it is hard reset, the best you can do to reset.
Is the missed call in the Messages list, uncleared or unopened?
Try also...
--Calling your BB from another line, leave a message, miss the call etc.
--Change to another Theme, and return to your current theme. Options > Theme.
Good luck.01-10-08 09:12 AMLike 0 - Thanx jsanders, I tried what you said but it didn't work....the missed call is not on the call log, just the icon on the home screen....any more ideas...I can live with it but it would be so much better if it wasn't there...thanks again...

- Happened to me when I switched devices from 8700c to 8310. To make it go away, go into Desktop Manager, Backup/Restore, Advanced. On the right side under Device Databases, scroll to Phone Call Logs, then press the "Clear" button. This will get rid of the icon, but it will delete your call logs. If that's a problem, try backing it up first (using the middle "left" arrow, then deleting it. Afterwards, try restoring it (moving it back using the middle "right" arrow) and see if the icon comes back. If not, voila. If so, I'm not sure what else you can do.
Not sure why this happens, but it is annoying.

This will fix for some but not all. This can still be attempted. The only fix for me was to have a fresh back up on DM, wipe handheld and then restore your data. I recommended this to others and have always worked!07-22-08 08:47 PMLike 0 -

You are quite welcome. Now let me give you my wife's phone # so you can tell her how awesome I am...she doesn't seem to believe it when I tell her that.
TIA!07-22-08 09:51 PMLike 0 - Happened to me when I switched devices from 8700c to 8310. To make it go away, go into Desktop Manager, Backup/Restore, Advanced.

I back up my pearl ever so often, and I got the idea to try this today, rather than a wipe.. I backed it up in the current annoying-icon-that-wont-go-away, not even from angry glares, state, and then I restored it to a date a month or so ago. The icon was, of course, gone, and I just restored it to the back-up from today, and voila, gone, without losing all of my data. I hope this helps.03-08-10 09:39 PMLike 0 - I just had this issue. The missed call icon that does not go away. Tried all the previous mentioned as well as some other ideas from some other threads. I did NOT do a wipe but did try deleting all the call history with no success.
I even tried calling my phone, letting it miss the call and then pulling the battery....It ended up giving me 2 missed calls that wouldn't delete after the reboot...
What finally worked for me was when I checked my voicemail. Not visual voicemail, but actually holding down "1" and dialing into the voicemail. After checking voicemail the "old fashion" way the icon cleared itself.
Goofy bug for sure... Oh, Sprint curve on os505-06-11 12:38 PMLike 0
