Hi,
I am new to Android and have the following problem: When I get a sms I get a notification in the upper bar. I scroll down the bar and access the sms by clicking on it. Now I can read the incoming sms in the bubble but the notification does not go away. I have to click on the bubble to get the complete sms (even if its only a short text) so the notification goes away.

I think this is really stupid that I have to actually click on the bubble (even if I already can read the whole text) so the notification goes away.

In other words: I want it to act the same way as the iPhone. Is there any way?

Have you tried the back button instead of the home button...?
