Gmail Unread Email Count on Icon - EVO 4G General

NOTE: Sorry, can this be moved into the Q & A? Posted in the wrong area.
Is there a way to get my gmail to show the unread messages?
maybe voice mail as well?
I really do love my Evo, however it would be a lot nicer for me someone coming from the iPhone and liking that style to have the notification on the icon.
Thank you

Search the market for "gmail unread count". The widget works great.

SMS Unread count in the market works as well too.

Thank you both!

SMS Noticfication Problem

So i just rooted and installed handcent and turned off stock sms notifications but when receiving text i was getting a notification from handcent and what i thought was the stock app. But then i turned on stock sms notifications and now i get notification from handcent, one from stock app and and one that says New Message(s) You have an unread message and it looks like a little picture of envelope or post card. I have no idea where that notification is coming from. its very annoying please help
Never mind thread can be closed found out that even if you don't use beautiful widgets sms that the notification will still show

Why does the Evo Send MMS as Slideshow!

Every MMS message I try to attach a picture or video to sends it as a stupid slide-show. It just does make that much sense (no pun intended). Is there a workaround or fix for this, its just seems like a crappy way to go about sending a MMS message. Chomp and Handcent don't do it that way but I dont like how the icons dont show the unread SMS count just a notification.
I apologize in advance if this has already been discussed but this is my Rant for the day!
I noticed that occurs when someone adds text in addition to the picture. Also handcent does show number of messages under the icon if you put the widget icon on your screen as opposed to the app icon.
Hey - Thanks for the heads up on Handcent.

Unread widget

Halp!!!
Can you help me find a 4x1 or 5x1 widget that shows an unread count for gmail, stock email, missed calls, and handcent sms?

I dont know of any widgets but if you are running ADW and want the icon notifications for those things you can try : ADW Notifier from the Market. It has been working great for me.
Beautiful, works just great.
Thank you very much for the tip!
Executive assistant is an amazing widget app that gives you all that and more its my must used app and you should give it a try
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Thanks! I'll give it a try.
Great recommendation

Email icon with unread email

I would like to have an email icon showing unread email (pop3) in my arc with the native Sony apps. It's possible?
gm,
you mean in the left upper corner of the screen?? in the account settings you can set a ringtone for a new mail, and also visual mail notification. i get an '@' in the statusbar upper left when i got new mail.

I think I know what you mean. I used to have an HTC Touch HD and the icons for SMS and Email would show how many unread texts/emails you had. All you get in android is an icon in the notification area. It's taken me a while to get used to which icon is which as I have hotmail, gmail and sms.
Is there any way (or an app) to have the shortcuts show you how many unread items there are instead??

Just found a couple of apps called Gmail unread count and SMS unread count. These are widgets which kinda works. Can't figure out how you go and change the options once you've added them though. Maybe I have to remove the widget and add it again.

Unread Notification Badge Counter

I'm using Nova Launcher Prime and Tesla Unread.
My email app unread notification badge works, but it doesn't work for my Google Messages SMS App.
There isn't a native unread notification badge counter in our settings, is there?

Be sure that you go into the TeslaUnread app and turn on Notifications.

Thanks, it was turned on, but I think what happened was that it wasn't jiving with an icon I was using on the homescreen.
The native icon within my app drawer showed the unread, so I just removed the homescreen icon.
As much bloat as Sammy put in here, there are actually far more tuning features in the os than I would have expected.
I'm still with the OP on Nova/TeslaUnread,
but I thought I saw a built-in notification badge function I may try at some point.
I have Nova Prime but I have been trying out the stock TouchWiz launcher. Is there a badge count in settings? I am wondering if Google Voice icon supports it as I am using that for messaging
Inaccurate SMS/MMS Badge Count
I have a OnePlus 6T running Android 9.0.5 (OxygenOS). I downloaded Evie launcher and i've had inaccurate unread badge counts for my SMS app since then; it seems every time a new group thread is started, the number goes up by 1 and never falls below that (eg, if i have 4 "unread" messages and a friend texts me, the number goes to 5 until i read it, but if i get a new group chat 5 becomes the new minimum number).
I've gone through every message and thread; i've deleted multiple group threads which are finished; I've tried clearing the cache and i've downloaded Textra which has the same problem.
Anyone have any ideas on how to get the count accurate?
