Does the Redmi 3 (stock ROM) have an SMS widget? - Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers

I've been searching high and low for an SMS widget for MIUI's stock messaging app, but cannot find one.
I also tried installing several other SMS apps and for some reason only some of them show an SMS widget available to be used on the Redmi.
I tried Google messenger which does have a widget but it won't import any of my existing SMS conversations.
Any ideas?

Not receiving all facebook feeds

Since about 2-3 weeks I am not receiving many of my facebook feeds in most widgets / apps u have tried except for the the official client. They are appear on my facebook homepage and in the official facebook client but no longer in any of the app i have tried (pure messenger, htc friendstream, color widget, launcher pro etc.)
I checked my settings and permissions in facebook, deleted and readded the apps in facebook and and my phone, and made sure I am receiving feeds from all friends, family not just the ones I interact most with but nothing seems to work.
No one has any ideas?

[Q] email or messaging icon doesn't show unread email count.

Doesn't matter if I use the email or messaging icon on my home screen I still can't see how many unread emails I have. Yes gmail work's fine using either the 'gmail unread count' or Zeam Launcher (or even GO Launcher EX). However my yahoo accounts (of which you can only see one unless using the stupid messaging app which doesn't show gmail but does show texts, I presume idea was to have a one stop shop for messaging but then left out gmail!) refuse to show on the icon like it did on my Desire.
Any ideas (aside from rooting).

[q] what to use for contacts/dialer?

I'm officially bored with cm7 stock contacts and dialer. need some ideas,preferably Facebook contacts integration. tried free/pro version of rocketdial and dw contacts but didn't like adding another Fbook app such as friendscaster just to get Fbook contacts sync to work.

[Q] SMS + multiple messenger client app?

Something cool about the new-ish facebook messenger app is that you can also use it for your SMS text messaging. Is there an app out there like this that also integrates other messaging clients like Hangouts?
Ideally, I'd like something that has SMS, facebook messenger, and google hangout conversations all in one list, with an icon on each conversation indicating what service it is associated with. Another (maybe better) option would be to have a tab for each service along the top of the interface so you can switch between them and stay organized.
I've looked around and found several multi-client messengers like Trillian or IM+, but none of them seem to do SMS as well.

Notification Badges not working on same apps

Hello xda community,
Recently I have jumped back from iPhone to android and decided to buy mate 10 pro - I have been loving it so far. There is only one issue I can't fix no matter what:
Notification badges (count) doesn't appear on 2 email apps I use: on Inbox and on Outlook.
I have tried everything. I have set power options so that these applications have all permissions, I have checked the in-app settings to see if everything is enabled there, I have checked that notifications are enabled for all emails within the apps and I have long pressed the home screen, went under notification Badge app icons and have set Badge display mode to Unread message and gave that permission to all apps.
After doing all that, notification badges appear on messaging app, SMS app, Dialer - but not on my two emailing apps.
Is there any trick I'm missing here. I work with two email accounts alot, so if anyone could help me resolve, or tell me if the badges work for them would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Leafberry
The first suggestion I'd make is that you amalgamate all of your mail accounts into K-9 Mail and forget about the double-handling.
I can tell you that the badges work with K-9 Mail, though if there are more than 9 unread messages, the badge will be a single white dot in the centre of the badge background. Is this what you're experiencing with Inbox and Outlook, or are there simply no badges applied to the icons whatsoever?
I haven't tried either Outlook or Inbox on my Mate 10 Pro but I'm currently using this email app which I have been using it since I had my iPhone 5s and it works great. I'm running over 10 email accounts within the app and it's been great so far.
And regards to your problem, the badge works fine for it as now I have 31 of unread emails.
I can't post a link as I'm a new member but you can try to download the app Play Store. The app is in Beta stage:
Email - Fast & Secure mail for Gmail Outlook & more (Beta)
