I'm guessing since you have the edge contact swipe function, they decided to get rid of the direct dial. I was missing it too, but only used 3 people for my direct, so I just moved them to the swipe contacts.

the swipe contacts from the edge is a waste of time as you have find the exact spot to swipe and then you have choose between calling or sending a message etc which takes a lot of time!! Plus the icons are so small you can barely see the picture of your favourite contact!!

OK my droidx there was a phone icon in the recent call log and I believe the address book that I could tap to call the person. With the gs3 I have to open up the contact first and then hit the call button. Anyway to make it call directly from the contact list?

swiping to the right on the contact will call , to the left will open messaging.
I'm pretty sure this is on by default... if not you will have to enable it.
Oh fantastic that works great. Is there a post with other such tricks?

Nice find, thanks!
It pauses for about 1-2 seconds which is a little annoying - seems slow, but it's definitely better than clicking everywhere!
Is there any way to get the ICS dialer on here? (rather than using something like Go Dialer)
Hello everyone,
Is there any way to see the popup before unlocking but without the screen going on? In other words, I do not want the lockscreen to be on after I send my SMS reply. Just a black screen. I have tried Go SMS and Handscent.
Thanks

What? You mean like the notifications going on the lock screen without lighting up the screen?

What I mean is, after my popup comes up and I send my reply, the lockscreen is there. Is there a way not to light up the lockscreen?
I believe chomp sms has something close to this with some configuration.

I use the stock sms with an app called SMS Popup. It works awesome. It's very customizable. Give it a shot, I think you'll like it.

But the thing with SMS popup is that it gives you multiple popups of the same message
If anyone is still looking for a reliable popup app...try Glowfly. I know its a weird name but trust me its a good app. So far...no multiple popups and better than SMS popup
Looking for a sms app that can allow to Quick Compose a text from any screen. Handcent has the feature, but doesn't work with ICS Phones since the search button is gone. Any suggestions?? I REALLY REALLY miss this feature

Launches the sms app. Not quick compose.
Quick compose should launch a box in any app that allows to create the message and send it. Handcent did it flawlessly.

in 1Tap Quick bar, there's an option to add a CREATE NEW SMS, which you could find in ITEMS/OTHER. the icon is a white envelope. This icon launches the default sms app you are currently using, and directly goes to IT"S create new sms message window. but i guess that's still not what you want.

Thanks for the help. I sorta found a solution with ChompSMS. There's an option for quick compose that leaves a box in your notification tray to quick compose a message. I just hate having stock, Handcent, and ChompSMS sms apps in my phone.
Not perfect but it will do for now.

Works fine for me.
Under WidgetLocker settings, there is an entry for "Unread Counts". I turned that on and enabled TeslaUnread. From there I went to the "TeslaUnread Settings" and checked SMS, MissedCalls, and Gmail. (They might have been checked by default; in any case, check the ones you want to use.)
Then I put the icon for the respective apps on my WidgetLocker screen.
Hope that helps. If not, let me know more specifics and I'll try to help.

Long press on the WL tool (edit) screen then application. That'll give you the icon just like on your homescreen.

Hm, where in the app list can be found widgetlocker "notification bubble"? All I see is just app icon, but that don't give you missed calls/SMS count on lockscreen.
I also looked in shortcuts/widgets....but can't find Tesla notifications anywhere.
Of course I set Tesla unread as default under Unread counts in WL.
EDIT: Ok, I found... I realised that main app (SMS, phone, etc) get a badge.
Moved to Q&A
wrong app
Hi! So I've bought Nova launcher and installed Tesla unread. It's cool, but tesla puts missed calls counter on "Contacts" app icon, not on "Phone". It's not that bad, but still makes me fill uncomfortable. Is there way to fix it?

Have you solved your problem? If so, could you post the solution?
I have literally had my phone for less than a few hours. But I thought it would be a great idea to share likes and dislikes.
Little bit of background, I am coming from a Note 2, so most of my likes/dislikes will be catered toward the upgrade from the Note 2.
Likes -
Mostly Everything LOL,
the screen resolution
the vibrant colors,
super fast,
the plethora of options,
blocking mode finally works,
no wifi nag notification,
wifi toggle works.
Dislikes -
The internet browser no longer sync with google,
can not use multiple lock screen widgets w/password or pattern lock,
4x4 grid on touchwiz (will be switching to nova).
I will update my list once I get to fully dive in. But so far 9.9999999999/10
I had mine for about an half hour. The best thing so far to me is the settings screen is 1 menu instead of 4 tabs . Sometimes its just the little things
Loving mostly everything, but again have only messed with it for a short time.
Only gripes so far is font sizes and in general DPI is just way too big and obnoxious. And lag when typing on the keyboard.
Let's go root!

Yep. One screen.
Keyboard is amazing, no need for swiftkey.
Id rather have the tabs so you dont have to scroll dow a huge list like on my note 2. But ghsts not a big deal. Im glad you can use blocking mode, and the wifi is back to normal.

You can change that in the messenger app settings. Enable message preview and it will scroll the message in the status bar like normal.
I'm so jealous right now. I would have mine now too, if I didn't change the shipping address to the correct one. So they can't ship it until tomorrow. So i am going to call to see if I can pick it up later this evening...

Agree with pretty much all of the likes so far, which is mostly everything about the device. My 4G speeds seem to have improved too.
Some nitpicks:
-new S-Pen feels much cheaply made than Note 2's
-Flipbook keeps getting activated when I hit the home button and accidentally brush by the screen
-Screen brightness range is WAY TOO SMALL (minimum brightness is too bright)
Several complains: desktop view does not stay on. I do not see the Note 2 developers options. I cannot remove the Verizon bookmarks as I was able to do before and restore from a save.
I think u have to tap on something in the menu 7 times to get dev options to show up. Saw it in a review somewhere
