I'm looking for a widget that shows either recent missed calls or unread text messages (or both) for use on Widgetlocker. I already tried MissedIt!, SMS Unread Count, Last Call Widget, and ADW Notifier, but they don't provide the functionality I am looking for.
I can't post pictures yet, so I'll try to describe the widget I am looking at. It's either 4x1 or 3x1, and on the left 2 columns it shows the name of the person who called and their phone number. Between the second and third column is a straight vertical line/divider, like one of these... | ... and on the right side of the divider is a green phone icon. I like that it shows the name/number of the missed call - not just the number of missed calls - and appears to have a button for returning the call from the widget.
What would be even better is widget just like MissedIt!, but with small phone, SMS, and email icons to the left of the numbers of missed items, and more details like name of missed caller, preview of SMS, etc.
Anyone have any idea what widget this is, or know of a widget with similar features? A widget that also counts and previews recent SMS would be even better.
Thanks
Try to look at those

I have a question regarding the stock lockscreen (i.e. the default touchwiz lockscreen):
When I receive an email I see no notification on the lockscreen but when I receive a sms message I see a notification on the lockscreen. Can anyone tell my how I can enable it so I can see a email notification on the lockscreen area? And I am not talking about a notification in the notification on the top, which I get. I am using the Samsung email client (i.e the default one).
Thanks
I'm searching for this as well. I didn't even know that new sms notifications would show up on the lock screen until this morning.
It's a really nice built in feature. If it would show emails and missed calls too I wouldn't need an app which would be preferred.
I haven't seen anywhere to edit anything other than the wallpaper of the lockscreen although the manual makes it sound like you can simply long press to edit.
Is this hidden in Samsung Apps or somewhere we wouldn't think to look?
Testing:
Missed calls show too. I guess just Emails don't which is a little odd.
Only missed calls and text messages show on the lock-screen, the only customization allowed on stock lock-screen is clock position and of course the lock-screen wallpaper.
Music widget will also show on lock screen if your using the Samsung music player
Thanks, I didn't know about the music player showing.
Emails would be really nice. A quick link to the camera would be the only other thing.
Good enough for me to not use an app (widgetlocker) though.
I have a custom slider that opens the inbox of a specific email account. If I make the slider using the email app then it brings me to a screen which has all of the day's calendar events and a link at the top for "all inboxes" with an unread count. In order to go directly to an inbox I have it opening a Shortcut rather than the email app itself which does what I want but I can't get an unread count on it the icon. I have the ADW Notifier app installed and the SMS part works just fine. Am I missing something?
I'm using WidgetLocker with ADWNotifier too, but i couldn't make it show counts for calls/emails. Works fine for sms unread count only. Don't know what's wrong as i set it correctly.
To quick call?
Is it disaperd to all?
Tnx
they started removing that since blfb.
they want us to use TW style of calling, which is swipe that contact's name to the right.
and yeah i'd prefer they at least kept that at favorites section.
Hi Friends,
I have HTC ONE M8 AT&T phone. Whatsapp does not show notification badges. Also, email shows notification badge but when I get into the email and come out without reading email, the notification badge is gone though there are still unread messages. Can someone help fix this please.
Thanks & Regards,
Shah

If you are referring to the little number on the icon on the home screen... then there's nothing to fix. It's working as designed.
That isn't actually a stock android feature. HTC (and Samsung, LG, Motorola, etc) customizes their home screen launcher to display unread count "badges" for the apps that are built in (email, messages, etc), but couldn't possibly do so for other 3rd party apps. In the case of email, the badge clears when you go into the app regardless of the number of unread messages. (It's more of a "you have this many unread since you last opened the app.)
If you want more functionality, you could use a different launcher (such as Nova Launcher) and a plugin (telsaunread) that supports more badges. I have no idea if "Whatsapp" is supported by nova/telsaunread, but it shouldn't be too hard to figure it out.
Edit: I just checked and nova launcher with teslaunread does explicitly support whatsapp.

Hi,
I also have a problem with my Icons on the top left-hand corner of the screen on my HTC One M8...
I have just launched the new Update "Sense 6.0" and now I can't see the Icons of WhatsApp, SMS, E-mails. etc. on the top left-hand corner of the screen, when the screen of my phone is locked (when I get a new message).
Do you know how I can turn it back on ?

I want to have a sidebar on my theme with phone, email, chrome, text etc but I want to have the icon just be text.. so "Phone" "Text" and so on.
I am assuming I have to just make widgets with the text and then link the button press to the app. How can i get badge counts on these like if I have 3 unread emails 2 missed calls just like the regular badge counts on the graphic icons.
I am on a s7 edge and running nova launcher.
