Why is it that the Google Nexus page shows little icons of the person in the notification pull down? I'm on 4.0.1, and if I get a text, I just get a regular text message icon, not the image of the person who wrote me. Is it a 4.0.2, 4.0.3 feature? Or am I missing something?!
Thanks for insight!

I believe those only show if the contact is synced with google+

It's just Gmail right now, I'm fairly sure. The Messaging app doesn't seem to have this capability yet, for whatever reason.

Hey all,
I went back and re-watched the Google/Samsung announcement from October. The video specifically shows Matias as having a text (from the Messages app) from Andy Rubin and Andy's picture shows up there (like how it does for emails).
When I get a text message, I get the little box smiley face icon, and not the person's picture. Has anyone gotten a picture to show up there?
Yes

Yes you have a picture there? Did you have to do anything special? Are you syncing from Google+ or anything?

I am synching with google+, yes, but the contacts who I have pictures for in the messages app are not from google+; they are just normal contacts. I added pictures to the contacts manually.

Hi, I have same problem. When I got SMS I have only "SMS app logo" in notification bar. Can you please advise how to achieve photos there?
I don't have pics showing up either in notification. My contact, Google+, etc all have different pics for the person biti still only see the messaging app icon.

Weird how it is working for jstegeman. I'm getting my contact pics from my Google Contacts syncing. I would hate to have to attach all the pics manually from the phone just to get it to show in the Notifications!
Sorry, all, I just reread this. I'm not getting the picture in my notifications, but in the messaging app itself. I didn't notice the word "Notifications" in the thread title. Apologies for the wild goose chase.

on my old galaxy s with ICS teamhacksung rom i always got a sms notification with contact picture on the left site of notification, now im on galaxy nexus and want to know if there is any rom or modified app with supports this notification too?

yeah i just noticed this for some reason. on an old nexus s running cm9, i was getting contact pics, but on GN cm9, i only get the sms icon..
I know most people here are feeling horrified someone would put a skin on their GN but I really really really miss having large icons on my home screen that display how many text, voicemail and email messages I have and being able to click on them and I'm in the program I need to be to actually review the messages. Or perhaps there is a program like Beautiful Widgets that can give me that feature back?
I'm not sure if it is related or not but I miss the visual voicemail on my ET4G.

You will have wait for the nexus committee to convene on this serious issue. I think the next meeting is around December or January. They'll get back to you then.
let it be.

OK - this sounds silly but I intalled Go with navigation - it doesn't show up in widgets or apps. I uninstalled (only an option on marketplace - can't uninstall from apps otherwise as it doesn't show.)
pretty sure the new nova prime launcher has notification on icons now. and its a real ics launcher so id go that rt.

Thanks I installed google voice it said my phone number could not be verified.
I'm thinking these apps may not work with ICS or that google voice is still by invitation.

Have you set up Google voice before installing the app? Its a service and you use the app on the phone to access it.

Can we make a list of apps that support Jellybean notifications, would be nice to be using apps that support it.
so far itll be all the core google apps, tunein radio, and pulse i think.
Pulse doesn't, so far all I've seen are the core apps, Tunein, and Notification Toggles. Anyone see any other apps with it?
Can you post screen shots of notifications?
I do not get gmail,extended notification nor call back/SMS for missed calls
Twoons supports Jelly Bean notifications. It's a twitter client
Imgur For Android supports it too.

Multiple gestures work. Two finger pull down, two finger rotate, and two fingers pulling apart vertically all work.

How does it work on yours? It doesn't work on mine.
I think the stock SMS and Gmail apps could be doing a much better job of utilizing the new notification style. All they do is show expanded views of messages. I'd like the SMS app to give me quick access to calling the sender or deleting the message right from the notification, and Gmail should let me delete or archive messages without going into the app. The missed call notifications (where you can choose to call the person or send a message right from the notification) are how it should be done for all apps where it makes sense, and I don't know why they didn't do the same for SMS and Gmail. Maybe they will eventually.

I thought there were? Will have to double check when pulse shows up on my notification bar and report back here
Foursquare has Comment and Like actions on checkins.
Pulse definitely doesn't do it. Unless this is something in settings?

I just jumped from an iPhone to the Galaxy S3. Really loved it until..... I installed GO SMS Pro and started receiving double texts. I reached this extensively on the web and couldn't find any thing that worked so i de-installed it. I then installed Handcent 4.4.3 and low and behold, I get double texts again. I don't get double when i have the native Galaxy text app.
From what i can tell, there may be a way to "turn off" the default text notification but i cant seem to find that anywhere. Surly I am not the only person with problem on the Galaxy. Can anyone help please? Thank you.
open stock messaging app> settings> untick notifications at the bottom

Yep, the info listed above is correct if the problem is that GoSMS Pro and the stock messaging app are both giving notifications. But if one is getting duplicate, the above won't work.
