Hi, I use StrakDroid 2.0.0 and there are these crazy notofications like:
"SMS recieved" or "Gmail recieved" but this sucks, i have notification via application (handcent or gmail app) so this overlaying little popup is senseless,
Is there a solution to disable these notification?
On older Versions I never had some sort of these.
Hope you can help me
Don't know how, but I solved the problem with some settings edits.

Does anybody knows how to change it??? Because it doesnt appear the option in messages--settings
Grab a alternative sms program like sms go, handcent or something similar, lots of skins there and all your sms are preserved
Hey guys
I got the SGSII a few days ago and downloaded LauncherPro because I like the app tray to be vertical like the Nexus S.
Anyway, I have a "Messaging" shortcut on my homepage. The problem is that when I get a new message and have not looked at it, it does not show a little notification beside the icon (like a small "1" if I have 1 unread message).
Is there something I can do to fix this? It also does this with my emails (my email icon is one of the dock icons). I have "Unread SMS count" checked in LauncherPro preferences but it still does not work.
Thanks,
Elliott
This is from the the LP website...hope it helps...
Please note that for these notifications to work, you must either use the corresponding LauncherPro-style icon, or have the shortcut set for the stock phone/messaging app. It should work with other apps as long as you use the LauncherPro icon, and it should work with custom icons as long as you use the stock apps. Support for 3rd party apps with custom icons *might* come in the future but it’s not certain yet.
Thanks.
I do have a shortcut set for the stock messaging app and still doesn't work. No custom icons...

you have gone into menu>preferences>dock settings and ticked the notifications for unread sms count havent you?
Ive a custom icon linking to handcent and its working fine with a little red 1 when i have an unread text.

I believe the newest version of Gmail "broke" the mail notofication in both ADWLauncher and LauncherPro. The ADWNotifier description says the following: "Since Gmail app updated to 2.3.5, we can no longer receive the unread count data. I'll try to find an alternative. " Nothing from LauncherPro so far.

From the LauncherPro site: I just received some pretty sad news. The API that LauncherPro uses to access your Gmail messages (used on the Gmail widget and the Gmail dock notifications) is being removed in the next version of the Gmail app for Android 2.2 and higher. Apparently the API does not meet modern security standards.
What this means for LauncherPro users is once you update to this new version, your LauncherPro Plus Gmail widget, and LauncherPro Gmail dock notifications will stop working, and even potentially crash the launcher if you try to use them (I don’t have access to this upcoming version yet, so I cannot fully test it).
I apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause, and hope that the Android team will come out with a revised API soon enough, so that we can re-gain our Gmail integration in LauncherPro.

Yes I have. And yes I've read that it seems to work for Handcent but not for the stock messaging app.

Exactly. Thank you. But my email is also not working in the dock...just using the stock email app with Hotmail.
Bump...anyone?
The latest gmail update changed the api structure so that all gmail notification apps (even launcher pro and touchwiz 4.5).
We have to wait for those apps to be updated to the new system.

It works fine for me if im using stock messaging app or handcent. It doesnt work on stock email though. Im not sure what to suggest, maybe try uninstalling launcherpro and reinstalling it?

Hey guys,
I installed launcher pro on my phone and use it as my preferred launcher. However, even when the settings under dock are checked, I don't get a number letting me know I have a new text message over the icon in the dock. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, have you found a solution or is this something the developer has to fix? Thanks for the help

Just installed LP and the dock notifications are not working.
I've got LauncherPro (Plus) on my GS2 and the notification icon is working for the text messages. I don't use the missed phone or gmail notifications. I also changed my dock shortcuts to the stock shortcuts and stock icons. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. I also use Handcent as my default messaging application and turn off notification bar notices for all but a few close contacts (daughter, hubby, etc.).
LPP is my default home app...
When I was using LPP (with custom icons), my notifications for all three stopped working after a while. I switched to Go Launcher EX with notifications, and they didn't work either. It's pretty damn annoying.
It was originally working for me as well. I read somewhere that Google had patched Gmail for security reasons but I forgot to disable updates on Gmail ... so I think when I did the mass app updates in Market that it broke it like it did last time on my HTC aria. I'm assuming we need the original apk now but I have a feeling we're screwed ... I don't want to revert to my cwm backup since I did so much tweaking since then but it may be the only way to get email notification to work again.

Okay I restored my stock rooted backup in cwm and almost immediately market tried downloading Gmail updates. I killed my data connection before it finished downloading and cleared market cache and data. I froze Gmail and started the market with data connection again ... so far I still have notification in Launcher Pro but who knows if there's a way to disable Gmail app updates in the future?

2 Question's Guy's, both refer to Slim ICS 3.8 (one more than the other)
1) Regarding using the Handcent messaging app. It seems I'm having an issue when I disable notifications in the stock messaging app and enable notification in Handcent. I get only 1 notification in the status bar as I should (just the Handcent) but there is no notification sound. The only way I seem to get notification sound is if I enable it in the stock messaging app. Thus resulting in dual notification lol.(figured I'd testify and notify)
2) My second question is about Google Music and the deauthorize/too many devices whole shenanigans! I'm sticking to Slim ICS itz friggin titz! but does anyone know if the updates count as "new ROMS" which seems to be the root problem. I tend to flash a lot of ROM's(NO WAY!) I'm on version 3.8 and I had to freeze the "update me" app cuz I got tired of seeing the lil green Android every 2minutes! I'm afraid to update, lol.
Neither Problem is life threatening and I'm happy with both Slim ICS and GooglePlay Music. Without either I would be but half a man. Any info is appreciated.
Cheers
Hi.
I use whatsapp for my communication purposes more than SMS/calls. I have selected my default messaging app on Themer as Whatsapp.
As expected, the messages icon takes me to Whatsapp. BUT, the unread messages count on the widget does not reflect the unread messages on whatsapp. Instead, it only shows the count of unread SMSs.
This is the major reason why I am staying away from Themer (which I don't wanna do!). Is this a common issue with everyone?
Themer Support, if this is an issue, is it being fixed?
Thanks

I know of no such launcher which supports badges on WhatsApp. AFAIK, there's no way to show unread message badge on the icon. Though you can use missedit for notification.

Hi AB256,
To be honest this is quite a difficult feat to achieve, even advanced launchers struggle to do this. However, with the advances of Zooper widget combined with Tasker it might be possible, but not anytime soon. Apologies for the inconvenience...

Still no way to do this ? I find this to be one of the very few things that themer falls short in ..
