Tile theme app that allows notifications - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I am looking for an app that allows you to change the theme of a tile (or tile colour etc) and allow it to show a notification - i.e. how many unread texts etc.
I have googled this, and found that the access to hubs is currently not available (people hub, for example) but I think I remember a while back there was an app that could show you the missed calls and unread texts, and allow you to open up the app in question, or maybe that was a dream...
Anyone?

[Q] Calendar/Tasks notification popups?

Can anyone point me to any apps that generate popup notification windows and sound for any calendar and tasks events (like the incoming SMS popup you get with Go SMS) that would integrate with the main calendar and tasks apps (GTasks, etc)? I have trawler the Market and Google but haven't come up with anything to give me more than just the status bar notifications for each individual app.
I would like to know this as well.

sometimes google is really slow at adding things to the play store
The app is just added into Google Play, please wait a moment before it's available to download.
PS: It seems that Google recently delays upto hours before making an app available to download

In the mean time, you may use a Torch app and make a shortcut on quickbar that you can quickly toggle it.
great app, thank you!
some observations:
- when searching through the contacts, it's not listed in alphabetical order
- if device is locked, when using create new sms, the device does not unlock, it just launches the messaging app behind the lock screen, would be great if it unlocks the device

Confirm these issues. Hope to fix it soon. Thanks for report.
a shortcut for the default alarm clock would also be nice
Hi Bao, hit me up with a PM if you're avail. for future freelance projects in Sai Gon

Reboot
Could you add a confirmation dialog to the reboot feature and a check box in settings for those of us that want the dialog box?
Also, could you add an option to merge multiple notification bars into one and put an arrow at the end(s) to switch between the bars?
why don't you take one picture up here?
Picture 1 shows how the notification bar would look before clicking the arrow on the right and picture 2 shows both notification bars and the arrows on the end of each shows that they are linked.
Two ways that this could be implemented are:
All bars are automatically linked and you could only have 1 bar showing at a time
Long press on one of the bars and click a link icon and then click another bar, with this you might want to put a box around the linked bars and automatically move them next to each other
I hope this makes it clearer.
thanks
I also thought that if you are able to make linked bars, that there could be an option to automatically create the linked bars after a limit has been met. Like a check box to enable a limit and another option to set a limit, list or text box. This would make this app that much more user friendly.
Great program
This program works great for me, unlike another similar notification bar program I tried that caused unexpected/unwanted changes to my phone's behavior.
Keep up the good work.

How to edit?
leducbao - this is a wonderful app, I use it all the time. A couple of things that I have not worked out, however, are:
1 How to edit an existing bar e.g. remove/replace shortcuts?
2 How to re-order icons in a "new" or "existing" bar (linked to question 1)?
I cannot find that these two issues are clarified in your FAQ and feel it would be really cool if they were explained (then again, I might have missed something, sorry if that's the case!).
Congratulations on a really, really good app.

[Q] How to modify my notifications from social apps

I have been looking for something that will allow me to edit what my notifications say for privacy from nosy people. I found an app that was called "hide my text - invisible." This app was great for people who use their native SMS app for sending text messages. It allowed me to make my own notification if i receive a text from a certain person. Usually, the notification will scroll the contact's name, and some of the text. This app let me change the notification ticker, text, and the icon, so that if I got a text from a contact, I could change the ticker to read "unread emails." This app is great, however it doesn't work for 3rd party messaging apps, like google voice and text free. I do not have a messaging plan, so I have to use these 3rd party messaging apps. Is there any app, script, or mod that will allow me to have the same exact features of the "hide my text - invisible" app for my 3rd party apps?
My phone is rooted
I have a HTC Droid Incredible
It has a Jelly Bean Rom on it
Any help?

Quick Reply from Notifications Pulldown

I thought Samsung Galaxy S6 (or perhaps Lollipop in general) had the ability to reply to messages directly from the Notifications pulldown (for apps that integrate that feature), as I remember seeing it in a video review of the S6 (though I am unable to find the video at this time). However, I haven't found that ability in Facebook, WhatsApp, or [the stock] Messages app.
Is there something in particular I have to do in order to enable this feature?
