I hid the icon "messages" on my pearl and now every time I get a missed call or something like that I have to go to the call log and delete that I had a missed call from that number. Now I have a icon that has a envelope and the number 1 next to it which means I have some type of message(its not a text or email) and I cant get it to go away so I need to Unhide my messages icon. How do I do that, and unhide things from the main desktop(is that what its called) in general? Thank you much!!!

Hit the menu key from the home screen and select "show all."

On the main applications screen, choose the menu and select show all. Then unhide the icon you need. You can then choose show all again to hide the unneeded ones.

Thank you very much guys!
