Not sure if this is an EVO or general 2.1 issue but here's what I've found:
I've tested this issue with 2 apps.
on Handcent, when I check the box to show unread sms count in notification bar, it doesn't work.
I'm also running My Battery Status which also doesn't show the battery % in the notification bar. I have to pull the bar down to see the %.
When I flashed Evolution v7 on my phone to test Froyo, I found that My Battery Status is showing a % on the notification bar. so I sent a txt to myself to test Handcent and there it is! A unread count on the notification bar!
The EVO is my first Android phone.
So is this an issue with the HTC's 2.1 or 2.1 in general since it works fine in 2.2?

I love the EVO, and the whole android notificaton system, but am shocked that HTC removed this feature on the EVO.
On the Hero,
when you got a text message up in the notification bar, it would show the message notification and then have a little number showing how much.
Obviously if you had one message their would be one message in the notification bar, and 2 or and so on.
however on the EVO, if you get 1,2, or 3 messges it only show the messaging Icon without the number in the notification bar.
It seems stupid that they would keep that feature on the hero with a 3.2 in screen, but remove it from the EVO with a 4.3 inch screen.
I know on the standard Android like on the nexus one or the samsung moment or droid it only shows the messaging ICON without the number no matter how many messages you have.
I really miss this feature, Is their anyway to install an .apk that would add that feature?
In the photo below it shows the missed call number and voicemail number in green, but they used to do that with texting and email
I didn't know the Hero has that. Would like this too on my Evo
its a small feature. but it was nice knowing if you hse more than one.
anybody???
Does this phone/Android in general offer push notifications?
I currently own an iPhone3GS (just got my PAC ,will be ordering Galaxy tomorrow)
I love Gooool 2009, keeps me up to date with scores in the football.I dont have to open an app to check the scores,it informs me as the goals go in.Is there something similar for Android?
And things like Facebook? Will I be informed if someone sends me an IM ala IM+ on iPhone?
I don't know about push notifications really, but your apps can stay connected to the internet in the background so 'live notifications' shouldn't be a problem.
The notification on android works differently (and, coming from an ipod touch, I'd say better). Your notifications will pop-up in the top bar, where your cellullar signal aswell as battery level and other things are displayed (at the moment they appear for the first time the notification bar will show text, like "New updates for program X" or "IM contact A says 'hey there, how are you doing?'", and then it will revert to the normal notification bar with icons for every missed notification). You don't have to click on them nor will they stop you from doing anything else. If you want to go to the app or the specific update/im chat, you just have to slide down the notification bar, and click on the notification. If you want to clear the notification bar, just slide it down and click clear.
edit: here's an example of the pulled-down notification bar on another android phone: http://thecellularguru. com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/android-g1-50.jpg (correct the link, I can't post links yet)
Hi guys,
I've just sold my iPhone 4 and got the Desire HD (which I am loving by the way).
I have flashed my ROM to Android Revolution HD and have a query
When I receive a text or email, after I have read the email or text the notification icon remains in the status bar and when I swipe down I see the text/email. The only way to clear it is to click the clear notifications button.
This is quite annoying and I was wondering if anyone knew how to resolve this issue,
Many thanks
edit: I have disabled status bar notifications and the notifications have disappeared. I would however like to keep these one....
Hi there, I'm facing a problem with the notification in WhatsApp, when I get a message and let's say I'm chrome or any other app it's only shows the WhatsApp icon on the notification bar, but if I don't remember it wrong it should at leats show me something like new message from "anywho" and then the icon, or even give me the option to fast reply showing me the whole message but it's not doing any of this, only the icon and I have to draw the notification bar just to see who is texting me..
It's this the way it's supposed to work? Cuz is driving me crazy..
I have last marshmallow stock build with July security patch, unlocked and rooted with EX-kernel and a theme called Milos using layers manager, dunno if that have something to do with it..
Ty, guys.
