In this paper we show the uniqueness of the constant solution to a general Yamabe-type equation on a compact pseudohermitian manifold. The Riemannian version was first proved by Bidaut-V ́eron and V ́eron. In another direction, we make use of the vanishing property of two eigenfunctions of the sub-Laplacian to conclude the nonvanishing of the first cohomology group of a compact pseudohermitian manifold. The corresponding version for the Rieman- nian case was first proved by Gichev.
