Question Little dots on Apps missing on new messages - Google Pixel 6 Pro

Hi there!
I don't know how they are called in the english original, but on my P6P I really miss the little dots e.g. on the Mail App when there are new messages.
In my options it has this option and it is on, but there aren't any of these dots. I really miss them, cause so you always have to pull down to see where there's something new when you are already using your phone.
Anyone a conclusion for me?

In the GMail app? I can't picture the dots.

That's called "Notification dot on app icon" and can be found in System Settings --> Notifications, down near the bottom.
It can also be turned on and off on a per-application basis by going into the application specific notification settings at System Settings --> Notifications --> App settings --> {whatever}, and switching on/off the option to "Allow notification dot" at the bottom.
But personally, I dislike this "feature". If the application notifies you, then why not click it instead of running around through your menus trying to find the one with the dot?

Thank you for the right name of what I'm looking for
But no I don't run around looking for these dots, I just open the phone and mostly there are WhatsApp or Mail news and I always have to look inside to see if there's anything new when I don't want to swipe down for my notifications.
The Settings are all set, but there are no dots for me!
Don't know if this matters, but I use the Nova Launcher.

You need to allow notification access in Nova for the dots or badges to appear. Go into Nova settings > Notification Badges and then tap the message at the bottom of your screen to enable read access to notifications.
You can also check if notifications have been disabled by going into System Settings > Notifications > Device and App Notifications and checking if Nova is enabled or disabled.

The hint with the settings brought me to the solution I think. It seems you need Nova Launcher Prime for the dots

[Q] Minor ICS bug? Launcher default setting...

So it's less of a bug and more of a typo maybe...
I have been playing with different launchers, and when I click my home button I just select a different one and sometimes set it to default and use it for a while to test it out. I'm torn between stock, go, and nova (I just wish Nova had a scollbar in app drawer like GO).
anyways... so when you have no default launcher set, you get to choose it in this little dialog. In the dialog there is a check box to make this action your default for the home button. When you check that box it gives a small popup that says "Clear default in Home Settings > Applications > Manage Applications."
Well, those options are not in the stock ICS 4.0.2 settings menu. I think this is a hold over from Gingerbread or something? Or is this due to one of the Launchers I installed taking over the home button? Anyways... seems like the option used to be in the settings but no longer is in ICS?
*edit: I realize you can change default settings for apps under app settings. The point is that there is no "Clear default in Home Settings > Applications > Manage Applications", unless I am misunderstanding something...
It's there, it's just labeled differently.
Pull down your notification bar and hit the settings button, then Apps, then scroll through your apps to find and select your current default launcher. Scroll down and hit the Clear Defaults button...
Ya, this is true, but its a bit of a hassle to scroll through a long list of apps. Would be much simpler if the settings menu was set up the way language/input is for selecting a keyboard.
But anyways, it's still seems like a typo in the OS to me... they should update the instructions on that popup menu.
its not a typo, I think you're just misinterpreting the wording that the app is popping up.
It's simply telling you to go to "manage applications", find the home app you wish to clear the defaults of, and clear the defaults...
Its not just launchers that can be set as a default (camera, gallery, music, etc. can all have 3rd party apps be defaults). So there is really no point in having a completely separate settings menu just for defaults, when the ability to clear defaults can be managed from the "all apps" menu.

I believe the OP's point is that in ICS, you don't go "Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications", you go "Settings -> Apps" and find the app (in Downloaded or All). So it's a string value for that popup that needs to be updated to reflect the settings menu structure in ICS.

Small Question with Calendar

Running stock, rooted, Sprint.
When I set a reminder for my calendar, is there anyway to just get it to go to the notification bar? I don't want a full "alarm" which it does now where I have to swipe to clear the reminder and it takes up the full screen. I just want a simple notification in the background on the sidebar and a ringtone to go when it sets. Anyway to do this? It seems like it would be simple but I haven't been able to find out how to do it in the settings.

Heyyy old question, late reply. Maybe you won't need it anymore.
If I understand the question right, open your Calendar, and click your Settings softkey (bottom left beside home button)
Scroll to Settings
Click the Account Name (ie [email protected])
Scroll down to "Notification Settings"
Place a check mark
Then hit Select Ringtone (just below it) and switch to Silent.
Hope that helps.

My Zopper companion app (ZW Utilities) supports enable/disable toggles for Wifi, Data, Bluetooth and Flashlight, if that's what you are looking for. If you just want to open the Settings page for Wifi, you should be able to do that by opening the OnTap action dialog, swipe two times to the right to the "Shortcuts" page, scroll down until you see the "Settings shortcut" option. Tap that and you can select the settings sub page you want to open with a tap on the Zooper module.
Hope this helps you out and happy theming
what i wanted to do is just a simple task, like when i tap on that particular object it opens the WIFI settings, im sorry but i really cant find "Settings shortcut" im using galaxy s5

You COULD use Tasker to get the job done. You can literally hard code it to toggle on/off Wifi. Then, when you're done configuring Tasker, hop over to your Zooper widget and just point it to the Tasker profile you just made. Should allow you to toggle when you click on whatever object you place in Zooper. You can also do the same for data toggles, images, etc.
EDIT: I actually forgot that they integrated this. Configure your rectangle then click Module OnTap, scroll two screens over to the right, click "Settings Shortcut" and then chose Wi-Fi. Then back out to your widget, let it update and then click on the rectangle. It SHOULD take you to your Wi-Fi settings page. Hope this helps. :0)

Looks like we may have a solution: http://www.jagwar.de/en/zooper-wifi-toggle/
hi thanks for your research i really do appreciate that however base on my understanding it just creates a toggle where it enable / disable the wifi, what i was trying to do is open a wifi settings.. im not sure if i can do that with tasker.. im really terrible at programming
i will do my own research too, again i appreciate your time
thanks a lot
Oh, I see. Let me continue poking around and see what I can come up with. Unfortunately for you, I don't think it can be done on your phone, seeing as you're missing a vital element to make it work...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using XDA Free mobile app
yeah its such a shame that a new flagship that is supposed to be more powerful doesnt have this feature.. oh well i hope i can find a work around.
thanks a lot
To use Tasker:
Create a new task;
Enter a name for the task then click the check mark;
From the task edit page click the + at the bottom;
From the select action category list click settings;
Scroll to the bottom of the list then click WIFI settings;
You don't need to make any changes in the action edit page so go back to the task edit page;
Since your going to use the task as a shortcut you need to assign it an icon so click the icon on the bottom right corner (it looks like an app drawer icon);
Select an icon (it doesn't really matter which icon because for your purposes the icon will not display);
Then use the back button to completely back out of Tasker (this will automatically save the task).
From there just setup up your widget to launch a shortcut the task you just created.

Hey there, although your request can be managed by Tasker, I feel like you want a quicker/easier alternative. Coding can wait another day.
Download this app from the play store link then enter the OnTap property of your chosen Zooper widget module > Swipe once to the right > Select Wifi Settings from the apps list.
And you're done. Just tap on the module after a minute to let it refresh and you're set.
The free app is under 18kb so hardly resource intensive and more than makes up for the surprising lack of Settings shortcuts on your S5. (Seriously, my Note 2 has these basic shortcuts as does most stock/custom roms. I wonder why it didn't make it to the S5).
I have been equally frustrated by a similar situation. I want a widget that automatically takes me to the battery status.
I had built one before but was being thwarted by the lack of access to this setting. I thought I was crazy in not finding the settings be available. I dont really need a toggle for the wifi, but is there a suggestion for the battery settings?
i suppose I will play around with Tasker to see if I can figure something out, now that I know I am not crazy.
i may have found a quicker solution via a third party...
- install 'anycut' from the play store (icon ooks like a mushroom house)
- when setting up the 'on tap' part, point to 'any cut' under 'shortcuts' and let your mind be blown by the myriad of shortcuts provided, including the elusive wi-fi settings

Gmail badge with numeric notifications count

Late to the party and just got a Mate 20x! Am currently running EMUI 9.0.0.208 in case there's still stability problems with 9.1.
Just about everything is working except numeric notifications of unread Gmail messages on the homescreen Gmail icon badge. Gmail doesn't appear in settings->notifications->app icon badges or settings->notifications (badge management). I've tried to make sure everything relevant was enabled in settings->apps->apps->gmail->notifications management and in the Gmail app itself.
Gmail emails are being pushed to the phone, and notifications appear immediately on the lock screen and the top notifications bar so the problem just seems to be displaying the unread emails count on the Gmail icon badge.
I understand that the Gmail icon badge displaying numeric notifications is not supported by EMUI but Nova Launcher (non-Prime) and MIcrosoft Launcher didn't seem to make any difference to the Gmail icon badge unless I've missed a setup option.
Can I have some feedback on what launchers are able to enable (unread emails) numeric notifications on the Gmail badge in a Mate 20x?
Many thanks!
John
Hi John,
From what I've read, there are 2 Methods:
1. Method 1: Stock Launcher
- Pinch on the home screen to edit > tap settings > Badge app icons > Badge display mode > Unread messages. (Source)
2. Method 2: Nova Launcher/3rd Party App
- Instal Nova Launcher or Notifyer app (Source)

Thanks! But I've already set the Badge display mode to Unread messages (unfortunately Gmail is not listed underneath among the supported apps).
Have also tried Nova Launcher (non-Prime) and Microsoft Launcher. Can you confirm these actually enabled numeric notifications on the Gmail icon badge on a Mate 20x? Perhaps I missed a setting ...

Thanks!!! Notifyer looks great but recent reviews on the Play Store don't inspire confidence ...
Guess Notifyer will need gmail credentials of all my accounts, or can it work on the system level on the phone to read the notification count? Would rather not give yet another app my gmail credentials.

Unfortunately I've removed Gmail app and instead using Outlook for Android. The Native Nova Unread Badge is working well for the app under this setting.

According to Source 1 & Source 2, TeslaUnread required permissions which violated the terms of Google Play Store, that's why it was removed. Google also required third party launchers to have their own unread badges and that's why Nova included one in their later builds.
You can still download the Tesla Unread apk from the official site here.
I bought and installed Nova Launcher Price but unread counts didn't appear for Gmail. I thought the new version of Nova Prime didn't need Tesla Unread ...
When I installed and setup Tesla Unread from your linked apk, finally, after this long odyssey, I saw unread email counts on Gmail! Many thanks for all your help!!!
Still worried that Gmail notifications don't appear as fast on the Mate 20x as an old Samsung S7 I'm comparing it against, but shall keep testing.
I made sure Gmail has full (manual) permissions under settings->battery-> battery usage->gmail->app launch on the Mate 20x. Hope Gmail has continuous access to wifi or mobile data even when the phone is sleeping. Not sure whether I've missed a setting for this as couldn't find anything under settings->wireless & networks->wifi (settings)
Immediate push gmail notifications when a phone is sleeping, unread emails count management from multiple gmail accounts and a big screen are the most important features in a phone for me! Hopefully the Mate 20x will (eventually) tick all the boxes!

Many thanks!!! When I setup Gmail, Nova Launcher and Nova Launcher Prime in settings->battery->app launch to 'manage manually' with everything enabled, the Mate 20x is faster getting email notifications than my old Samsung S7. Not sure whether all of this was needed but notifications were slower before when both the phones were sleeping.
Thanks for the screenshot. I don't have a "M" gmail notification in the top notifications area but a "2" (one email double counted). I noticed that emails were consistently double counted (one new email in gmail but the unread gmail iconbadge and notifications area says 2). In Nova settings -> notification badges -> Choose a style I switched from 'Numeric Dots' to 'TeslaUnread' and the double counting on the gmail icon badge stopped. The top notifications area still seems to be double counting but it's not the end of the world ...

Huawei is known for its' very aggressive battery management; That's why vs. Samsung for the same battery capacity, Huawei always wins because it puts most of its' apps to sleep if it's in the background. There are 3 settings to alter to fully keep an app alive in the background:
1. App Launch
Settings - Battery - App Launch - Manage Manually
2. Battery Optimisation
Settings - Apps - Apps - Special Access (Top Right) - Battery Optimisation - Set to "Don't Allow"
3. Lock App in Recent
Go to Recent Apps - Swipe down to Lock App (Lock Icon)

Many thanks for all your help. Think Gmail notifications are now appearing instantly on my Mate 20x.
I noticed that Nova Launcher has the highest battery usage among software apps on my Mate 20x (settings->battery->'battery usage'). Do you think I need to have Nova Launcher maxed out on the following settings or can get away with less?
1. Settings - Battery - App Launch - Manage Manually
2. Settings - Apps - Apps - Special Access (Top Right) - Battery Optimisation - Set to "Don't Allow"
Battery usage it's too much of an issue on the Mate 20x but every little optimisation helps in the long run. Thanks!

You can try to restore both to default and see how it goes. It shouldn't cause any issues as you're using the launcher constantly so the system will adjust accordingly.

Messages app notification sound settnigs

Cannot find option te set notification sound in messages app settings. It is possible in general device sound settings but causes the same notification sound in all apps. Is it solution ?
Open your message app
Next tap on the person message you want to customize the notification sound
Next tap on the 3 dots on the top right corner and select custom notification and tap one more time to enter the customized field
There look for sound
Thats it
Hope this helps
Unfortunately when you delete a thread with an individual where you have set a custom sound, the sound goes back to default.
You can also use Textra App. Amazing UI and customization with that app. Support Dev with pro version to unlock other useful features.
Only if you don't use RCS (well I can't find anywhere that third party apps support it).
If your looking to change the message app notification sound it self then do this

Yes that's it.
I didn't notice in first look that "new messages" and "general notifications" could be double tapped with further possibility to set sounds.
Thanks for that and for previous posts as well.
