Hello,
I was wondering if it possible to display unread counts from two or more gmail accounts at the same time, either in the same widget or in multiple widgets. I know I can go into settings and manually switch between accounts, but I would prefer to not have to do it that way.
Thank you,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,
We picked up a bug on this end, hopefully it can get sorted soon.
Using Zooper Widget (not Themer Zooper Widget) if you create/edit a module, and replace the text with #SUG1#, it will display your inbox for your second account. As it doesn't work with Themer ZW, we'll contact the dev team to sort this out as soon as possible. If you need any help let us know.

I am running Kaos Froyo 35-1. I have tried different options, but I can't find a nice widget that lets me add contacts to one of my screens where I can click the picture and it calls the number. It always brings up the options for text, phone call, and mostly their details.
The original HTC widget did this, and I checked out the Launcher Pro People widget..and nothing quite works.
I am doing this for my kids in case they need to call my family members and don't need a course in Eris development 101
Any suggestions or apps to try?
check out Scrollable Contact Widget.
its a two click option, shows pictures of your choice of contacts (starred or category), once you click the persons name it asks you call, text, email... you click one of those and it goes.
nice app, could be tweaked to work faster though. but the best one i've seen. It requires you use ADW or LP
I've never tried this particular widget, nor do I know the developer, but ran across this over at AndroidForums awhile ago, and your post reminded me of it. They do have a free version so you can try it out and see if you like it.

I use "Contact Widget". It's free on the market and works great.

I don't believe it works with facebook sync, but I don't use facebook sync at all anymore anyway. "SyncMyPix" (also free on the market) will grab all your facebook photos for existing contacts and add them to your google contacts. You can do this once and remove the app since all info is updated to the actual google contact. Or you can use it to update periodically.

You're looking for a shortcut, not a widget
Look under shortcuts, not widgets.

Very simple in Froyo. Find a blank space on your phone and long press. Choose custom shortcut - press "select activity" - scroll down and pick "DIRECT DIAL". Next choose the contact from the list that pops up with number you want and press it. It will then add a 1 click dial icon to the home screen with picture.
Be sure to pic the correct contact and number from the list. For example if your kid's phone has "Mom" as a contact with a home/work/ & cell number when the list pops up to choose from you will actually see 3 "moms" listed with the three different numbers.
Saw this on Gizmodo:

Multi select apps from one widget.
Liking it!
Tried this. It duplicates the launcher icons every redraw until it gets overwhelmed and FCs. Give it more time.
That problem only occurs with Angry Birds. I believe they are working on a fix.
Hi all,
Does anyone have a clue, how to:
- Add a shortcut to Circlelauncher.
I mean the shortcut should appear as app, maybe in the manu as well.
Ive been using it for a while now and think it's great! occasionally it slows down when opening one of the circlelancher widgets (i have four on my screen) but have never experienced an FC from it.
Tap to open the launcher. Currently installed apps appear. To add more, tap circle icon. List of all apps should appear. Check the ones you want....Is this what toy meant?

Do you mean getting the circlelauncher to appear on your screen? If so keep in mind that they are widgets so you have to long press on your screen and select it from the widget menu.
If you mean choosing the individual apps, you choose them from the settings menu.
Hi all, thanks for the answers.
But you dont get it, so far. So: I would like to add a shortcut (like call the chosen contact, go to wifi settings) to the circle. The problem is, that you can add only apps which are on the devicle. I should make the shortcut to appear as app, and than I could add it to circlelauncher.
Or to add shortcut somehow else. (I know that in a normal case, you can not add shortcuts to it)
I want to clear my homesreen totaly btw. Dou you know any launcher, that would let me to even make the dialer or contact button to disapperar? (have motorola defy)
BR to all.

Since the Nook Color so far can't make shortcuts, I might suggest asking in the Motorola Defy section of the forum.
facebook picture for contacts
Circlelauncher is a great widget so far, haven't had any problems. Does anyone know if it's possible to use the facebook pictures as the picture for the contacts? That would be a great addition!
Is there a way to arrange the order of the icons? I want to group like items.
Cheers,

I am new owner of the Unlocked Streak. It came with the 2.2 and I am kinda loving it. Have already applied the performance pack and the quadrant scores have kind of doubled from stock ~800 to ~1450 with the performance pack.
Overall I am really loving this device.
Just need a little help in few lousy areas (have already tried searching the forum/web)
1) How do you edit stage UI widgets ? I need to bookmark my webpages on the Web widget but I dont see any option to add my own pages.
2) There seems to be some kind of issue with my Contact widget as well. I have like 150 contacts on my SIM card and I tried importing them to my phone. I could do that but when I get into the Contacts Widget/application, I am just not seeing anything there. Instead it tells me to do the same thing that I just did, that is to import contacts.
I used some other contacts application from the appstore and the other app can see those 150 contacts but again I am unsure if that app is seeing the SIM contacts or not.
3) On the same lines, can I bookmark my favorite music albums in the Music Widget ? Currently everything seems to be random in that widget.
I know I might look like a noob but for a while I am with this new possession of mine.
Looking forward for the help from you guys.

The widget reflects the favorites that you have saved in the browser. Edit and/or save favorites in the browser and they are reflected in the widget.

The contact widget displays the favorites you have set in your contacts list. When in the contacts app hit the menu key and select display options. My contacts all are from my Google account, you may have to select something there to show contacts that are only on the phone. Once you can see your contacts in the contact app tap one to display details and then tap the start in the upper right corner to add it to your favorites (and to the widget).

I don't see any way to create shortcuts on or customize the music widget. You can create shortcuts to a playlist. Hold you finger on an empty area of the screen until the menu pops up.Select Shortcuts and then scroll down to Music Playlist. Tap on that and you will get a list of your playlists to choose from. The shortcut created will open the music player with that playlist. You can put the shortcuts in a folder to keep from hitting them when you don't intend to.
Edit: I also see that the widget displays a quick link to all of your playlists.
Thanks brother. Finally i was able to make the desired changes.

Glad you sorted it out.
FYI - there's a thanks button on posts. Click it when you get a helpful answer.
Oops. Will take care of that next time. Thanks again.

The thanks button helps make the forum better.
It keeps a bunch of thank you posts from showing up in long threads. Sometimes the thanks post comes so far after the post it thanked you have no clue who the person is thanking.
A post with a LOT of thanks shows that it was useful and therefore the content might be given more weight.
A user with a lot of thanks show that the content they post is valued by others.
Users who use the thanks button contribute to the forum by making it known which posts are useful, which users are helpful and keeping threads shorter.
It's a very good system. And you're welcome - enjoy the Streak.
Hello guys I have a question. I use a lot whatsapp so I put the program into the icon of sms but it don't count the number of unread message.
Is there a way to solve it?
Thanks a lot
you could do it how it did it using tasker..
just create a variable with the notification count of whatsapp and as soon as you open it you set it back to 0.
then you export that value into a zooper widget theme and display it using that.
i'd be happy to help if you need further help or a better explanation

I did all the guides say but now I have another question.
How can I modify the widget of themer to see the numbers of messagges? For example:
the themer widget doesn't support it as of yet, it will propably in the future..
but for now you need to create a new zooper wiget and align it manually.
I suppose you know how to add a new zooper widget and move the text value around?
it is not a perfect solution but it works..
it will need a bit of trying until you figure out the size.
you can find out the font looking in the original widget

We are working on a way for all notifications to be read by Themer. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Hi,
I started recently making my own themes as i found there isn't enough themes in my taste on themer/mycolorscreen application/launcher.
I have on question though. how do i change the text for unread email? It is connected to my gmail, ut even checking another box in the mail options i have no luck so far. So help me get an answer please. I watched all videos but i might have missed it somehow. (see screenshot for explaination (and yes i made it all red because I am not ready to share my work with the world just yet))
Love this launcher!
greetings mcwurth
Changing unread email count from gmail to other email
As far as I'm aware, this CAN'T BE DONE! It's a limitation of Android, not Themer. Android links itself to your gmail account, and it will only report unread emails in that account, not any other. The two ways around this are:
(a) forward all your non-gmail messages to your gmail account by adding your hotmail/yahoo/whatever account to gmail (you can do this within gmail on your phone, or from your PC). This is the 'elegant' solution but it does mean that ALL your emails will be a the mercy of Google
or
(b) as you're building your own theme, just find the simplest widget you can for yahoo/hotmail/whoever, put the widget on your homescreen and use some clever masking (such as allow overlapping widgets??) to display only the numeric character. Not sure how you'd go about changing the font size.
You might want to look at Tesla Unread which displays unread emails on little badge icons, or browse xda's main Android forums for info on email count widgets.
BTW, I'm no expert so please don't ask me anything technical - I've just researched this problem before and I remember some of the replies I got from clever people.

Not exactly what i mean. this must be a limitation by themer as the word personal comes directly when i add "missed email". it simply says personal. even when changing the inbox/outbox/whateverbox of my gmail to anything else then the personal one it will not change the text and i can not change it elsewhere. i feel this is a themer issue and not from gmail as i can recall that with other themes it says email/ missed email

Hi mcwurth,
That's Themer Everything Widget right? When you add the Email item, it shows Personal by default. To remove it:
1. Select the Unread Email item (that one you added).
2. Tap the "Unread E-mails Style" option at the bottom - Select Unread E-mail Settings.
3. Scroll to the bottom - Deselect Show Label.
Alternatively you can use Themer Zooper Widget, which allows for much more flexibility. Hope this helps!
