Ok, I have searched for a solution and can't find one...
I'm using desktop visualizer and have replaced the mail icon with no problem.
What I would like to do is make it so the new icon shows the unread mail count in a notification bubble like the original.
I know about smsunreadcount however I am using exchange so no go there.
Can I edit the xml to show the new icon?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I wish google would put a unread count bubble on the gmail icon..... smh @ them

You can have that...use smsunreadcount from the market.
Use desktop visualizer to replace icon for whatever you choose.
Unfortunately, they don't have that for unread exchange mail.
^ thanks.... ill give it a shot

Is there a way to have the regular email client show u how many unread emails u have??? When I look at settings under launcher pro it only shows Gmail SMS and phone notifications. Would love to have an email notification =)

Regular email client does show notifications in the status bar at the top. Pull down and there is a count.
thanks. is there a way for that number to appear on the dock?
K-9 has that. It's also a better email client IMHO, especially if you use IMAP folders extensively.
hmm seems as if i dont receive emails on k-9.... thanks though.
launcher pro also gives you the option for notifications on the dock bar...

Would like the count unread app be able to pick your own icon, unlike the sms and gmail apps.
Still looking for a app that does this, anybody had any luck?
Waiting to see
HTC Sense has one built-in, but other than that, the only one I've ever found is the '1x1 Ultimate Unread Widget' and it costs $1 and requires root.
I've been searching for a far more customizable solution to no avail...

Cheers for the reply, but reading the reviews for 1x1 Ultimate Unread Widget i think i will give it a miss, but thats the basic grouds of what i am looking for, just have to wait and see if someone else finds one
SMS Unread Count also includes 1x1 widgets for email and is free. I used to use it for Gmail. On LPP so unread is now in the dock.

Yeah i know you can do it for gmail, but i'm looking to link another e-mail account sms unread count cant do this, and i would like to add my own icon, you can only pick from a few when you use this app.
Ok I have the G2x and I'm coming from the G2. Neither has the ability to display on the gmail mail icon how many unread emails you have.
I downloaded gmail unread count but it only allows 1 account to be accounted for. I've used the thunderbolt and that one keeps track of all your email accounts on one icon, anyone know of an app that can do the same thing?

Launcher pro has that feature built in

Thanks, ill give it a shot. Had launcherpro on my g2, but ended up going back to stock due to random crashes. I still have no idea why this isnt a default ability, im sure im not the only person with several gmail accounts and want to know I have unread email on my home screen.

It can be used for Messaging, Missed Calls, as well as Gmail
It is a "widget icon" which replaced the stock icon
Works great
The sms unread count as well as the gmail unread count widgets only work with 1 account. What I want is a single widget to handle multiple accounts at 1 time. So if I have an unread email in 2 email accounts the widget would display a 2 on the icon.
I dont want a widget for each email account

Guys,
Is there any app or way to change icons for Apps, such as Gmail, messaging and stuff when using SENSE 3.0 ???? I did change them using LAuncher Pro plus, but i have realized that I like HTC Sense more than any other launcher.
Yes, get desktop visualizer in the market. It will work perfect with what you are looking to do.

You can also use Folder Customizer to change icons (and create better looking folders).
And there were plenty of apps that allowed customizing gmail's icon... Gmail label notifier was one of them... Now they are all gone? Removed by Google?
Greetings all,
I thought the whatsapp icon looked out of place on my launcher so I made one.
Theres the one i've themed to co-inside with the messaging app gold and one more the traditional green.
totally free enjoy
Thanks using it and look cool.

press hold on the icon and let go a little paintbriush will appear hit that and you'll see from there. just put the icon on your phone in a folder so it's easy to find in the gallery app
