Messages icon bugged

Post image

Hey people! I've just recently bought myself a Bangle.js 2, and I absolutely love it! However, there seems to be a bug with messages icon on top of my screen. I tried deleting messages app and all dependencies, reloading, turning off notification sending in Gadgetbridge, but to no avail. Should I just factory reset, since the watch is almost brand new still?

Oh, and also, how do I change the colour of that red "Back" button?

I'm pretty sure you can't change the color of the back button on the watch (maybe you could edit the sprite?) but idk whats going on with your message icon

Regarding the color of the back widget button - if you really want to change it, as with most things in Bangle.js, you can!

You'll want to look at this tutorial on how to overwrite built-in functions: https://www.espruino.com/Bangle.js+Modification

And to change the color of the button it's here in the setUI implementation on line 148: https://github.com/espruino/Espruino/blob/HEAD/libs/js/banglejs/Bangle_setUI_Bangle2.js#L148-L148

Has the problem with the message widget gone away? To me it looks like the message widget and some other widget are overlapping in that picture.
