I searched first...
Does anyone know of an application that would show if I had any unheard voicemails on the home screen? Something that would flash up, the icons in the top task bar are very easy to miss and nothing shows that I have a voicemail on the home screen.
I miss some of the easier things that you could do on WM6.
Thanks in advance.
Widgets > Voicemail widget. I Personally don't use it. But it has an icon on it to let you know when you have x-amount of messages in a bubble.

Tried it, use it currently, does NOT show when you have unread voicemails in a bubble. Only shows it in the taskbar on top, and it uses some silly icon that means nothing to me.
Of course, this could be because I rooted.
Mine shows a little red bubble on the icon like the message icon for example. with he number of unreads in it. =/ maybe you should try reinstalling visual voice mail

Anyone know whether we can change the font for the preview of incoming SMS?
Look for software called ZoomSMS. It was invented for Eten devices but works well on HTC phones as well.
ZoomSms don't preview automatically...
Of course it does.
i have got a copy and tried...but there is no option to preview.
it will show an icon on the screen and you will have to tap on it
to open the preview of the SMS.
and do u happen to know..how to get rid of the icon and its system
tray shortcut?
thanks..
Look in the phone settings (when you tap on antenna icon, go settings). Check all the tabs there.
thank i manage to hide the tray but still no option to preview Sms
upon receiving. Still need to tap on the mail icon to read the Sms.
Hi,
Is it possible to disable the "Call History" line on The TouchFLO Home?
I ask because it is bad UI. Even if you have _no_ missed calls, there is still a glaring icon of a phone and an exclamation mark, which indicates to me that there is a missed call. Very annoying.
Same prob
hey,
having the same prob. Cleared the complet call history, but in the home screen is still the glaring icon of a phone and an exclamation mark.
anyone have any ideas ?
Thanks !
U can get rid of the 'glaring icon of a phone and an exclamation mark'
just copy 1bbfdc9b_manila from your phone and edit it in Manila Editor...
The 'glaring icon of a phone and an exclamation mark' image is there among other icons and pictures....
but if u change the look of the clock it will bring back the 'glaring icon of a phone and an exclamation mark' image
sorry, the phrase 'glaring icon of a phone and an exclamation mark' just got stuck in my head
Is there a way to actually fix it so that it will show the missed call icon when u have a missed call and a normal icon when you dont?
thanks
Scary
Even if it would just stop glaring, that would be ok.
Anthropomorphism or wot?
The whole Call History bar is horrible imo. It's taking up valuable real estate better served by my calendar.
It would be better served being a tab with an indicator up on the very top bar when a call was actually missed and/or a little number on the tab when that happens.
Venting is gooooood.

How do i do this?
Anyone worked out how to do this yet? I hardly get any calls on mine which I use for work, mainly use it as a modem and email to our exchange server. I also therefore want to get rid of it.
Looked around, but I can't find a way
Same issue!
So there's no fix yet? It's really bugging me, looks like there's a missed call when there's nothing.

I was wondering what the simplest/best start menu bar replacement for wm6.5 is... i can't seem to search for the right thing.
I want to replace the entire start menu bar... w/ teh start button, the time, the sound, and notifactions (like wisbar or gigabar used to do back in teh day)
the reason why i want to replace it is because I don't like how my notifications are displayed. Currently, if I have one notification, it shows teh correct icon (missed call or email). But if I have 2 notifications, it shows the generic "notification" icon.
I'd prefer to see separate icons... i.e. a missed call icon, followed by an email icon to indicate these are my 2 notifications.
Moreover, on my phone (ipaq glisten), if I receive an email, the notification will show up on the start menu, but if hte email gets cleared on the server, the ipaq will also clear it (and it won't show up on my today screen), however, the icon remains until i go to the mail app (even though there are no longer any new mails). This is annoying.
Any suggestions? I don't need anything fancy... it's really just the nofications that are bothering me.
Moved as not software release.
i guess my question can be simplifed to:
if i have more than one notification, how can i get them to display separate icons for each type of notifcation (instead of a generic "balloon"/notification icon)?
If anyone has used Windows Mobile Standard (non touch screen), you know what i mean. If i get an email and a missed call, i see 2 different icons on the startmenu/status bar.
my second question is:
if i receive an email, my phone will show the email icon on the start menu bar. this is great. however, if i don't touch my phone (so the icon is still there indicating unread email), and i check the mail on my computer, so it's marked as read, it will also be marked as red on my phon. this is also great. HOWEVER, it will still show the mail status icon in the start menu bar, even though there are no new messages anymore. To clear it, i have to go to the mail app...
bumpity bump... seems like this subforum is dead!
the email thing is still a really annoying issue... after clearing emails on my desktop, and i take a look at my phone, i think i still have new emails.. but i don't... it's just the icon isn't going away until i go to my inbox.
lol already on the third page... i hope i get banned for bumping again.
really, no one knows of a) a fix for my described problem or b) a program which shows all the notifications?

I also find this very annoying! Anyone having a solution for this?
Thanks.

most apps put notifications in the notification bar - IMO, the notification bar is superior to anything the iPhone does. Even with a PIN Lock, I can see icons telling me i have notificationas and which kind - SMS, IM, eMail, Skype, etc. All have their own icon, so for me this works better then a single notification app.
Most apps, have their own settings to allow notifications.
I too was looking for this, but now prefer the notification bar system. The popups are annoying, and only useful when using the phone if at all.
Handscent SMS has popups and quick reply if you really want to try that.
Im also using apps the nag me that their is a notification. Handscent does this, and im still dealing with how to do it for calendar. TouchWiz and Google's calendar apps really lack the features.
I jailbroke my phone mainly for notification bar icons. I want to know if i get something without having to swipe to unlock and then enter a PIN. I should be able to see that stuff from the lock screen.
try NoLED from the market place. It's free and pretty useful. When your phone is in sleep mode, it will show an icon of whatever notification you get (e.g. a mail icon for message, or cassette for voicemail)
It also keeps the background black to save battery! Very customizable, and I highly recommend it
Can someone walk me through this? Totally new to Pixel phones. Been using LG for the last 10 years.
I have Nova Launcher installed and it seems to be working properly with no issues.
I'm getting written notifications on my lock screen whenever a YouTube channel I'm subscribed to posts a new video. I don't want that. (This is happening on most of my apps)
In the past with the LG, i'd just get a tiny colored bubble with a number on the app's icon on my home screen. That's what I'm trying to accomplish with the P7P. Is there a way to get the phone to do this?

Just long press on the notification and toggle off notifications.

Thank you!
I've tried that on the lock screen, and it takes me to a page asking me if I want to unsubscribe from notifications from that YouTube channel. Is this correct? I do still want to get a bubble on the app's icon on my home screen letting me know I have unseen content.

Hmm, I don't think so. Have you tried it once you've unlocked the lock screen? Please see screenshot.
Didn't make a difference.
If "notifications “ are turned off, will I still get the little dot on the app icon?
Ok, I may have an idea.
In the notifications settings area....
Pic below, set hide silent notifications from the lock screen. Then long press the notification in the status bar and set them to silent.
They will still show in your status bar and app icon.
Downside to my plan is if you have, for example, text messages set to silent they will no longer show on lock screen if you want that.

Yes, at the bottom of the list of notications, there is an option to have the dot separately.
