iam looking for application doing same what "ADW Notifier" do, Adding notification bubble up of an application icon has to notify you for incoming event such ( SMS,missed call, email, nimbuzz chat... or any application you per-defined) "look how "Chuck Norriz Mode" working in ADW Notifier.
also need it work with any launcher since ADW one working only with adw launcher .
hope iam understandable and will get help from you guys.

I was just thinking about the same thing. I would love something like this. Maybe there's even a Tasker solution. The only part I don't know about is how to get the "bubble" on the icon.

I haven't found a universal one but there is a similar app available for GO Launcher EX here
or another option is this live wallpaper I used previously called Notification Bubbles

thank you
i know there is a lot of alternative solutions, but all of them arrest you in there application. the one with Go launcher need you to use Go launcher only. the notification bubbles using all the screen with addition moving bubbles which you don't need sometimes. all what iam looking for is notification counter marriaged with the application shortcut icon use whatever the launcher be.

No problem, by the way you can turn off the additional bubbles. Then the only time you have them on the screen is when theres a notification ... not as much strain on the battery this way.
Good luck with your search
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?

Wondering if there is a 3rd party launcher that has notifications for the native email application, sms, calls etc like TouchWiz has where there are numbers stating how many have arrived or been missed. I was using ADW Notifier with ADW Launcher but since upgrading to ICS ADW Notifier doesn't work. Searched but have not been able to find anything about a launcher that has the notifier working especially for the native email application.
Appreciate it if anyone can point me in the right direction. Cheers.
Try Nova or Trebuchet, they are ICS inspired launchers...
Check go launcher and go notification

Apex launcher PRO has it.

Woo hoo this looks like it maybe a goer but still can't see that it supports the native email client it does however support Gmail and everything else so this appears to be the closest to what I am looking for. Contacting developer to see if it supports the native email client.
Thanks again to all that replied I really appreciate your assistance.
Confirmed with the Apex developers that it does not have notifications. So it appears no launchers have this feature.
I would love some of my apps to show notifications on the icons, does anybody know if/how this is possible in touchwiz? Particularly for missed call count, K9 mail, sms/mms, & whatsapp.
If not in touchwiz, would installing a launcher do this, if so which ones have this feature?
My phone is international GS3, not rooted or anything.
Thanks
Use nova launcher =)
Hi, thanks. Yes I looked at Nova in the store, but it only says "Unread count badges for SMS, Missed calls and Gmail".
It doesn't mention whatsapp, and I don't use the Gmail app I use k9 mail so not sure if it would work?
I would try it, but its only the paid versions of these launchers that allow unread counts, so I don't want to buy any unless I know they can do what I am looking for.
Can you or anybody who uses launchers confirm or rule out for me, whether or not any launchers work specifically with; Whatsapp & K9 mail?
Holo launcher does and its better than nova.
Or missed it.

Hi thanks, can you confirm whether it works with whatsapp or not?

Can confirm no whatsapp squire... however you do get to choose the app for the notification. Maybe something like missed it would do the job but as I don't have it I can't confirm sorry.

Thanks for the info, just reading reviews and missed it gets quite a few bad ones and its not really what I was after.
Holo is closest so far.
Do any launchers show icon notifications for whatsapp?
Sorry I couldn't help more fella. Not sure if any launcher caters for whatsapp but I would assume there must be something out there
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
No problem, I appreciate your help
Hopefully somebody will know.... Whatsapp icon notifications anybody?
It should be working with Nova + TeslaUnread + Missed IT. Set Missed IT as provider in Tesla unreadBut can't verify it myself.
Thanks.
I have emailed the following developers asking for confirmations before I purchase as nobody seems sure and I don't want to waste my money if they don't do what I want.
1) Holo Launcher
2) Nova Launcher
3) Apex Launcher
4) Go Launcher
5) TeslaUnread
6) Missed it
When I get replies I will update for other to see.
In the meantime if anybody can confirm if they use any particular launcher for icon notifications on Whatsapp messenger and K9 that would be great.
Well, its not looking promising. I'm surprised that what I consider to be a very basic attribute, seems not able to be implemented on android.
Disappointing.
Can anybody prove me wrong...
Hi,
I can confirm Nova Launcher Prime + Missed It! get the number of Whatsapp's unread messages, see my capture below.
[EDIT] Here's the process to make it working :
Install Nova Launcher, buy Prime licence, launch Prime licence to enable the extended options, go into Nova Launcher config, select "Number of unread" option, then select "Provider" => "Missed It!".
Install Missed It!, lauch it, go to Options => Shared Elements, hit the menu softkey and select "add", in the popup menu Applications and to finish Whatsapp, done.
Options may don't have those name as I've a French menu and translated what I see, but here's the main process. Also, Missed It! can handle many applications it's really great.
Also the count is shown everywhere, app menu, menu bar, desktop... On my capture it's in a subfolder of my menu bar.
Fantastic, thank you very much I really appreciate it

Thats very helpful of you Im very grateful, thank you.
I have been trying to get it to work, but with 'missed it', it says it must be enabled as an Accessibility Service to be able to receive application notifications ('Settings » Accessibility » Accessibility services'). But when it is enabled it talks all actions. So I cant really use it at the moment as its very annoying when it talks all actions.
Is there a way around this?
Edit - I had to disable Google TTS & Samsung TTS. Seems that its a samsung/google bug rather than a Missed It! bug.

LoganMcClay, just to say a big thank you. Its working perfectly now and your instructions were spot on.
Very happy

Hello. I have a problem with the Google launcher. I installed several launcher. And when I go into settings -> applications -> applications by default. All launches installed are present except for Google. I can not select the Google launcher. A solution please
same problem here
Even if I choose any other launcher in "home app" it just reverts back to system launcher...
very frustrating

i think u must go in settings/apps/advanced and select the default launcher app.
thanks for this help, this answer is helpful
Don't have this phone but other launchers work no problems right? Just have to go thru settings?
What about flyme ui gestures or mback? Do they work with other launchers? I know Nova and others have their own gestures but I wish to use flyme's more robust intuitive gestures with the costum homescreen.
The only way withthis Flyme OS is to use Nova Launcher that will simulate another launcher or version of the UI
