Gmail unread count not showing up... - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I recieve an email there is no number on the lockscreen or the homescreen icons stating there is an unread message.
When I miss a call or recieve a test message both the lockscreen and the homescreen have the number of missed calls or messages.
Anyway to fix the gmail unread count not showing?

ditto... only thing i could get working is the gmailunreadcounter widget 2 and go laucher ex which doesn't have unread count for the native e-mail app. really!?!?

I have this from time to time, also had it on the S2.
Only way I can clear it is going to the PC and marking them read or clearing Data on GMail app. Both not the greatest solutions though.
Hoping its just a bug in GMail and on Jelly Bean it will be fixed..

I don't think this is the issue here. The OP is asking how to get an unread count for gmail icon/widget/homescreen (and me +1). Silly it's an android phone powered by google software and doesn't even give functionality to gmail stock.

[Q] gmail and clearing notifications

is there a way to force clearing of notifications if emails are read using the gmail app?
email comes in.
open gmail and read the email.
notification don't clear.
Same problem here. Used to be on my Droid Inc 2 with CM7 that even if I read the unread email in browser on my computer the notification would disappear, this was very convenient. If I'm sitting at my desk with gmail open, I don't want my phone to continue blinking a notification light at me after I've read it....
It is common problem. Even missed call stays on until you manually clear it. Report in bugs section.

HTC Sense Mail App Count

I was wondering if there was a way to not clear the notification count when the app is opened or the notifications bar is cleared. This is annoying as I like to always see how many unread messages I have even after I go into the app. I have looked for alternatives and the best I can find is maildroid (I have 2 gmail accounts and an exchange 2010 account). Maildroid has it's issues though and I prefer the HTC Sense Mail app.

Agreed. This bothers me as well, especially since switching from the iPhone where i got used to this feature. I've just dealt with it as I can't find a way to fix it either.
Maybe with the 4.3 update? Have you tried with another launcher (ie Nova)?

Try re-installing. Maybe that helps.
Kindly,

Try switching themes.
Else, open your Themer Settings - Unread Email Count, then change your account settings accordingly.

No notifications on Samsung stock 4.1.2 with go launcher

So i have my S2 with the upgraded 4.1.2 stock rom from Samsung , but rooted, and go launcher.
I have this setup for the last 2 years or so with all the go launcher upgrades.
My problems are like this:
I have not received Gmail notifications in forever i always have to check manually for mail.
Yes i tried emptying cache and app data and the label notifications are always checked for all my accounts, but still nothing.
I have used Jorte calendar for some time but had to give it up last year cause after a while it would not send me notifications on the dates i set.
Recently i tried using Caynax hourly notification app.
This program doesnt send a visual notification in the notification area but plays a little audio clip similarly to when you receive a message.
And again after using it for a few weeks it just stopped sending notifications.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing data and the lot, settings in the app show everything is set up to send me the notifications and yet it doesnt.
I am getting some notifications, Facebook , YT and pushes , to name just a few, seem to work well enough
So if anyone has any experience with something like this please help.
