[Q] How To: disable number notification from app simbol? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
This is my first time here so i hope you will manage to help.
In my family we have a few different Galaxy phones (S3, S4 and S5).
In all of them we have a shortcut for WhatsApp and Samsung massages app.
When we receive a massage, in the top right corner of the app shortcut there is an orange number (which show the number of massages you received and not watched).
Is there a way to stop showing those orange numbers?
In Gmail app for example we don't have that problem, i can receive even 5 email and not watch them and no orange numbers shows in the shortcut corner
Hope you all familiar with the orange number to know what i mean and hope you can help me to make them disappear
Thanks!

No unread massages counting in the e-mail widget

Suddenly, the widget which show how many unread e-mail massages I have has stopped counting and it remains without any number, like there isn’t any new e-mail at all.
It used to show a number according to the unread massages but not anymore.
I'm using 2.3.3 on an unrooted SGS.
Anyone ?
Thanks

[Q] ICS Messaging - Only show contacts w/ Mobile number option?

Hi All,
Back in the days of using GB, I remember that the stock messaging app had an option to show only contacts w/ mobile numbers, so that you wouldn't accidentally select a landline or office phone to text (it might have been default functionality, actually - if a number was labeled as 'home' it wouldn't show up, however all 'mobile' numbers would).
Anyway, in ICS, I noticed that *all* numbers for a given contact show up when composing a new message. This seems to defy common sense, as I cannot send a text message to my parents' house landline.
Is there any way to make sure non-mobile numbers aren't shown when composing a new message?

call history / logs

Hi
I've got the samsung s3 4g version but I believe the normal S3 has the same issue. When I go into the call history it shows calls from everyone over the last 30 days or something which is good, but when you click on an individual number it only shows you the history for that specific day.
I used to have a S1 and on that if you clicked a number it would show you the history (calls/sms) for the entire history duration, so you could see you spoke to that person a 3 days and a week ago for e.g.
Is there anyway to get the S3 to do that... ? it seems silly if they took that feature out of the S3 ?
I was looking on google and someone said to get "mr number" I tried that, but that seemed to make it worse and not show me any history (just a list of all the ppl who i spoke to)
If anyone knows howto get the history/logging to do what I need that would be great.
thanks
surely someone else is having the same issue ?
I've got the same problem.
Before I9300 I had Touch HD where I used an Address Book app. There I could click on any number in call history and get the entire history of calls and sms from that contact or number.
But on SGS3 I can only get the history/logs of calls for the contacts that I've written to my contacts: logs(call hystory) - long tap on contact - open contact- menu soft button on the bottom left - journal.
But I've got a lot of calls that are not in my contacts and I don't want to save them and I need to see if that number allready called me.
How can I find it out?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] sms app showing mobile/work contact number information

Hi
when using my sms app, I am looking for a way to display which phone number of my contact is used (mobile, work, home, ...)
The only thing showed is the contact name and his phone number.
With all the sms apps I've tried (stock, hangouts, hello sms, 8sms, evolvesms, chomp, handcent), I didn't find a way to display this information. I always have to do an extra action (clik on contact photo, or title bar) to check if the phone number concerned is 'work' or 'mobile'.
Does someone know a tip or a new app to show this info ?
Thanks!
if anybody has an idea of a workaround to display the phone number type in the sms app (stock or any other), I would be very grateful.
I must not be the only one who needs to see in the sms app thread if i am writing to the mobile or work phone number of a contact ...
