Personal Dictionary Shortcut - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi - I have android 4.2.2 on an HTC ONE X+. I set up shortcuts in the personal dictionary, and it works sometimes but not in text messages. Any idea why? This is so annoying! (eg [email protected] should bring up my email)

[Q] Lockscreen display of missed email

Anyone have experience with getting Exchange email to show unread emails in Missed It ! application ?
Im using the app with Widget Locker, works great for SMS and phone calls. Adding email as a monitored app does nothing and displays [mails] [mails_str] on the lock screen.
All I really want is a redirect of the notification icon to the lockscreen or the text entry "____ unread emails". I hide the notification bar, so dont see missed messages until after unlocking phone.
Is Exchange tie-in not possible at all or can there be a workaround for the paramater ? I dont want to forward through Gmail (which works), K9 or touchdown, as I have read about.
BTW - I found the following, possible to port to Comm Rom 2 ?
"If you are rooted, you can install Cyanogenmod 6.xxx (whatever version it's at now) and it includes an email widget that shows the unread count for your exchange email & I believe it shows the total unread from the combined inbox."

[Q] Email notifications with different Launcher

Hi all - first post so i hope it a relatively decent question. Did have a search but couldnt find anything related to this particular issue on this phone.
I have an unrooted S2 and i would like to use another Launcher.
My problem is that i cannot seem to find and App or Launcher or anything that can alert me of unread emails.
I have tried 'missed it' and executive assistant but to no avail.
Missed it works for calls and SMS but not email.
I should add that i am not using G mail but using the built in samsung email App with two accounts (1 POP and 1 Exchange).
If i receive an email using the default launcher and open the app drawer there is an email icon which displays the unread count in a red bubble. So if i add this icon to desktop or to the dock i can see unread mails.
If i am using Launcher Pro for example this icon is not in my app drawer or anywhere that i can find it. In stead there is exactly the same icon in the drawer but this does not display the unread count.
I am assuming that this is a semi sansung widget (although i cannot add it to desktop as a widget even in the standard launcher).
I have also tried using the social hub with launcher pro (and Go launcher and ADW) but again i get no notifications.
I still get the notifications in the notification bar no matter what launcher i use but these dissapear after a while.
This is currently the only thing stopping me using a different Launcher and it would be great if anyone had any ways around this.
Unfortunately i cannot and dont really want to forward my emails to Gmail.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Nath

[Q] Minimal, configurable, email and SMS widgets, compatible with K-9

I'm trying to set up my homescreen with minimal icons and text based widgets. The idea is to get all the at a glance information I want on one screen, without any ugly inconsistent widget backgrounds.
Android Agenda widget is customisable enough to let me do that for my calendar, but I'd like to do the same for my recent emails (ideally in my K-9 unified inbox) and SMSes. Something that will just show the sender and subject line/first few words, white text on a transparent background (or configurable so I can get it looking like that).
Does anyone have any recommendations? Is this something I could do through tasker or locale: take the notifications from my SMS and email and output them as text in a widget? If it is, how would I go about that?
