It usually happens on my phone that the SMS application doesn't show me new (not read) messages in the conversation list (ex. no bold caracters nor message at the top of the list). This is a big problem when i receive two SMS  by two different contacts: to find the messages i have to open all the conversations one by one.

Anyone experiencing something similar?
Can someone help me, eventually?

I haven't used the stock messaging app in probably 2 years. It is very limited in what it can do and not very customizable. I would recommend switching to a 3rd-party one like Handcent or Go SMS.

Of course i use GoSMS but it's still "dependent" from the stock app (i mean that with the stock messaging application installed GoSMS, in practice, does what the stock app does including the notification issue).

Do you advise me to uninstall the stock application?

I don't believe Go SMS will work without the stock messaging app. But Go SMS is the one that marks threads as read (if you don't view it in the stock app) and I have never had issues with this using Handcent. I wonder if it is a problem with Go SMS or the stock messaging app. Maybe you should try and free Go SMS and see if the problem still occurs.

Well, i found the solution installing the 7.2 stable: i wiped everything and reinstalled every app from the market restoring the backup exclusively for some games.
Maybe the problem was in the backup, for some reasons!
Thanks a lot for your help!
