I want to have a sidebar on my theme with phone, email, chrome, text etc but I want to have the icon just be text.. so "Phone" "Text" and so on.
I am assuming I have to just make widgets with the text and then link the button press to the app. How can i get badge counts on these like if I have 3 unread emails 2 missed calls just like the regular badge counts on the graphic icons.
I am on a s7 edge and running nova launcher.

So you know with the messages and mail apps, when they are on the home screen, if you have unread messages or mail, it has the number of unread items displayed on the icon. If there a to do list app that has this, displaying the number of items in the to do list right on the icon on the home screen?

Try out ADW Notifier, it may work...It's in the Market.
Is there a setting to enable the indicator to show the number of unread SMS received on the SMS icon? I'm using Go launcher and used desktop visualizer to change the sms icon. I can't remember if stock touchwiz is able to show the number of unread SMS on the icon itself.
Thanks in advance
the touch wiz one does display it but on other launchers you lose that ability on the default messaging icon unfortunately!
I'm using Go Launcher and have my SMS shortcut on the bottom dock. It notifies me of unread SMS.
There's an application.
It's ironically called "Go Launcher EX Notification".

I have a custom slider that opens the inbox of a specific email account. If I make the slider using the email app then it brings me to a screen which has all of the day's calendar events and a link at the top for "all inboxes" with an unread count. In order to go directly to an inbox I have it opening a Shortcut rather than the email app itself which does what I want but I can't get an unread count on it the icon. I have the ADW Notifier app installed and the SMS part works just fine. Am I missing something?
I'm using WidgetLocker with ADWNotifier too, but i couldn't make it show counts for calls/emails. Works fine for sms unread count only. Don't know what's wrong as i set it correctly.
I'm looking for a widget that shows either recent missed calls or unread text messages (or both) for use on Widgetlocker. I already tried MissedIt!, SMS Unread Count, Last Call Widget, and ADW Notifier, but they don't provide the functionality I am looking for.
I can't post pictures yet, so I'll try to describe the widget I am looking at. It's either 4x1 or 3x1, and on the left 2 columns it shows the name of the person who called and their phone number. Between the second and third column is a straight vertical line/divider, like one of these... | ... and on the right side of the divider is a green phone icon. I like that it shows the name/number of the missed call - not just the number of missed calls - and appears to have a button for returning the call from the widget.
What would be even better is widget just like MissedIt!, but with small phone, SMS, and email icons to the left of the numbers of missed items, and more details like name of missed caller, preview of SMS, etc.
Anyone have any idea what widget this is, or know of a widget with similar features? A widget that also counts and previews recent SMS would be even better.
Thanks
Try to look at those

Hello,
I just recently got the GS3(not rooted, stock everything) and was wondering if the apps located on the bottom taskbar and also the apps shortcuts located on the lock screen can be replaced with a widget? The reason I ask is because of the stock messaging app. The one good feature about this app is that on the lock screen it'll let you know how many unread messages you have by showing a number on the icon for the app. However, I'm not a fan of the app itself(regarding how it interprets picture messages) therefore I've installed GO SMS which was my messaging app from my old Incredible. Unfortunately if you replace the stock messaging app with the GO SMS app on the bottom taskbar and lock screen it will not show how many missed messages you have on the GO SMS icon. However, if you just place the GO SMS widget on any screen the widget will show how many missed messages you have. I've tried all options I can think of but when you drag a widget down to the taskbar it won't go in like the app would nor do I have the option of putting a widget on the lock screen(settings/lock screen/lock screen options/shortcuts). Any suggestions or would this require a root?
Thanks
not in the stock launcher or lockscreen.
you can use Nova and widget locker
