Are there e-mail apps that show a little "1" next to the icon when you have 1 new e-mail?
The default e-mail app doesn't seem to do this.
I've placed it in the dock. My textmessage icon however does show a 1 when I have a new text.
Launcher Pro dock does this, or add a SMS Unread Count widget.

Hm I'm using Launcherpro and like I said it does work for my texts but not for my e-mails. Do I have to turn it on somewhere?
Ah my bad, I was thinking Gmail not Email.
Enhanced Email from the market supposedly does it but it aint cheap !!
ADW
ADW launcher and then ADW notifier. Both work a treat for me.

When I first got this phone, the SMS icon on the first page would show if i have an unread text (eg. shows 1 on the icon). I have since installed Calkulin's rom and pro launcher as my launcher program. The icon no longer shows how many unread texts I have. I think it may have to do with the fact that I probably accidentally deleted the default sms icon and had to add it back by adding the application (messaging) to the dock bar. No matter what I try though it won't show how many unread I have now.
It may be important to note that if I go to touchwiz launcher, it will still show the unread count. Both launcher ex and launcher pro will not.
Has anyone encountered this? It's kind of annoying since it's an important feature. Thanks for any help.
You should search the Launcher Pro forums and FAQ. I stopped using that Launcher but there are ways. As you said, it works with Touchwiz, so the problem is how you've set up Launcher Pro.
.....
I've searched this and other forums but have not been able to find a satisfactory answer as of yet. I'd like to know whether or not it's possible to put a widget in the dock bar. I am rooted, running the latest AOKP ROM and Nova Launcher. What I wanted to do was to use the widget Unread SMS, and replace my messaging icon with it so I get the unread messages # ala iPhone, but alas, I don't think it's possible to put a widget in the dock bar. Anyone?
Much thanks!
No, it is not possible.

If I read that right, you want to know how many Unread SMS you have through the same icon that will, if clicked, launch the SMS app, yes?
If so, you could try using Go Launcher EX with the Notifications add-on. It gives you unread SMS count, missed calls, and unread emails too, I believe.
Search for "Go Launcher EX Notification" - this is the add-on.
Thanks guys. I actually did use Go Launcher EX with Notification on a previous device, however since moving on to the GNEX I am loving Nova Launcher. I'm not sure I want to go back to GO just for this one feature. Perhaps.... I don't know how GO functions on the GNEX, but on my old Galaxy II it was a bit of a battery hog.
Well whaddaya know... I searched Google for "Nova Launcher unread SMS count" and got a link to XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21493784#post21493784
Enjoy!

Awesome find!!! I didn't think ADW Notifier would work as a stand-alone app any more than GO Notification doesn't work without GO Launcher EX installed. You 'da man!! Thanks for this find. Installed, turned on Accessibility, tested, and working!
My first satisfied customer!!
You're welcome. I'm happy I could help.
I'm using nova launcher, need a little help here, i turn on the accessibility, select sms apps and phone apps, but just cant get it work, any hints?
i am using nova launcher prime on my gs3 and am looking for an email application replacement that has an icon that will show the unread email count. The stock application because being used with a 3rd party launcher does not do this.
seems really odd to me that there is not may out there that do this.
ideally i would like to have an app like the htc email client that allows you to have shortcuts to individual accounts on the homescreen and these the will show unread counts for each account.
any suggestions?

Nova launcher has "Unread Count" and works fine for me. Just change the setting to show unread count on stock email app.

Hey Guys
Just wanted to know is there anyway to get the little bubble on top of the Gmail app? Similar to the Email app, it has a number displayed above it which tells you how many emails you have before going into the app, but Gmail lacks that for some reason.
Any ideas?
i'm using Tesla Unread, but it requires Nova Launcher or WidgetLocker.

Anyone have any issues with Nova? I tried installing it but every time I clicked on my gmail widget, the phone would revert back to touchwiz.
Is there anything more to it then search and install?
Just loving my Lime green Z1 Compact (from CloveUK)
Have installed Apex Launcher and Apex Notifier as this just gives me the screen set up options I prefer.
But I cant get the Unread Email badge to display unread emails using Apex Notifier, any thoughts on how to get it working?
Other badge notification work - e.g. missed calls - SMS and Gmail app, just cant get the Sony Email app to display unread email count?
Any help appreciated..
Try disabling Stamina mode or Add Apex launcher and notifications plugin to whitelist of Stamina mode.

I do not think that apex notifier handles the sony mail app.
Looking in settings for apex notifier I see options for samsung, htc and k9.
a kind of workaround is to select gmail in notifier settings and in apex launcher settings for notifier select to show the badge over the sony email program. But you will not get number of unread mails from all accounts that way...

Look for an update of Apex Notifier. The update your app. See also if it can work with your Z1c Email.

I have the latest version of Apex Notifier and it still doesn't show unread emails notification, I have had to go back to standard Sony launcher until this works in Apex which is a real shame...
Hopefully it will work someday after an update.
