GMail Counter? - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, so why exactly can't I get a Gmail Counter to show on my stock Note 3 screen? Is it that hard to do?
Thanks

Only thing I can recommend would be to download Nova and purchase nova prime and you would be able to do it then

Thanks for the response and I've already done that, but my question is really for Google developers of Android. Why can't they make a counter system part of the Android OS or at least the stock launcher.
We shouldn't need to get alternative launchers just to have a email counter. Just my opinion of course.

Firstly, I'd look in the manual.
However if you go to your app drawer, long press on an icon, it will take you to your homescreen, from there you can drag to your dock and drop where you want.
That's assuming you don't have a custom launcher and have changed settings to single dock.
As I am quite new maybe I do not use the right tech word. Sorry. I tried to drag and drop. From the app screen, I come ti my home screen. Ok. But when I want to put on my dock (the fix bar it just above the home button)... It becomes the litter bin and nothing. Mmhhh...

Sorry, I haven't used TouchWiz launcher since i was on eclair - however, by far the best advice I can give you, would be to install launcher pro or zeam free from the market.
There are many others, but these are probably the easiest. Zeam is very basic and light, lp has more features. Get them both, find which one suits you best. You won't be disappointed.
Tks for advice. I bought adw launcher. This does not answer my question but better now. Still have to fiddle with it... Best!

You have to press the menu button while being in app drawer. then press config just as when you deinstall apps from your drawer. Now you can drag and drop whatever you want

Few questions about N4

Hi folx.
I got this phone today.
So i have few questions about it. All questions consider rooting phone, but not putting custom rom
1. Is Light Manager working on this phone or we are doomed to use Light flow?
2. Can i put some shortcuts to unlocking circle?
3. How can i remove google search bar on stock launcher?
4. Can i add some more shortucts to switches menu in notification bar?
5. Can i change color on softbuttons?
If i remember something more, i will write it here
Thanks i advance

Hi,
1) Light Manager works perfectly, I use it.
2) Custom rom.
3) Not possible if I remember right, need to use an alternative launcher like Nova / Apex or a moded stock launcher.
4) Custom rom or maybe with an existing mod (I doubt)?
5) Custom rom or take a look here but here the colors are limited.
Mainly what you are asking is in almost all the custom roms...
Thanks a lot for response!
Tell me, is it possible to add wather widget on lockscreen as widget?
Thanks in advance

Check out dash clock widget. If that's not what you're looking for and want full size widgets then try a custom ROM.

Many custom ROMs have a feature that allows you to put any widget on the lockscreen.
It looks like you need to start flashing!
Ahhh.. I wanted to use stock for few weeks.. Ive heard that there is one kernel that is working best with stock rom and makes battery life much more better.
P.s. can i recieve ota if i am rooted?
P.p.s. does build number affect ota updates (like on galaxy nexus)?

TW apps on Google Edition ROM's.

Hi, can we have a place so we know which TW apps work with Google Edition ROM's? If anyone knows any please post.

Why would you even want to use TW apps on stock android? If you want Touchwiz experience, go back to stock.

You right, but its good to know which apps work. We might want to mix things up.
If the Google Edition ROMs have TW framework then why not to try. I read somewhere that the camera app works but I don't know where to find the link to the apk.

Touchwiz vs. November & other Launchers

Is the S-Pen or any other functionality lost when a 3rd party launcher is used? If some functionality is lost, what is last? Can you increase the number of rows or columns for icons on home pages with Touchwiz?

My keyboard is too smart for it's own good, I was trying to say "Nova" launcher, not "November". Does Touchwiz allow you to increase the number of icon tows and columns on the home screen?

Touchwiz columns and rows
The hack you are showing me is the only way to have more columns and rows with Touchwiz?
I understand that custom launchers still allow the s-pen functions to operate.
However, will a custom rom say a cm10.1 based rom allow this as well as allow the syncing between the note and the smart watch?
If not, how could I over come this, I want a cm10.1 which allows me to use all the s=pen functions and smart watch functions properly..
Appreciate any help.

You can't. S pen features are built into the tw framework.

In that case is there any two based rom or launcher that allows custom themes?

maybe what the OP meant is Nova Launcher
I have tested out Nova Launcher for a few days, found one little thing, the write with your pen function on the samsung keyboard makes nova and or the keyboard crash.

Only way would be to make a "similar" launcher by yourself using Nova/GO/APEX etc etc and just tweak it. You can't/won't be able to use any HTC .apk's on your Note due to framework incompatibilities.
HTC sense is perfect system, but I cannot understand, why we cannot use it on our devices, because I think, that it can be ported. But may be I'm completely wrong as only htc kernels sources are available.
