Are there any addons/apps similar to Go Launcher EX Notifications? You know, those tiny number things that pop up next to icons that tells you that you have missed calls, messages, email, etc.
I need Go Launcher to run Go Launcher EX Notification but my launcher of choice is Apex, is there an alternative (preferably free)? UCCW?

I am looking for a way to have notifications appearing on the dock icons for K-9 (email), SMS (I use GoSMS) and Google Voice Voicemail.
I can't grow fond of the notification bar -- it gets too busy, messy looking for me. So I generally hide it.
But I still want to see message and voice mail counters on my dock icons.
It seems that the stock apps can do it, but I like a unified email app, and use Google Voice for my voicemail. Plus, I like my own icons....
Anyway this can be done (and what is the reason that this feature is not not built into any of these 3rd party apps)?
This works just fine with ADW notifier. Not sure if you need ADW Launcher EX or if the free one will work.

Thanks! This is a good reason to switch to ADW Launcher (even though I was happy with Go Launcher).
ADW Notifier is absolutely great for everything else, but it does not notify of Google Voice messages
Anyone with a solution to GV notifications?
If I use non two launchers like Go Launcher ( my favourite) or LP Plus, Do I lose any built in functionality apart from not getting the counts for emails, sms etc? Is there a way to get those counts on Go Launcher?

Custom launchers add more stuff. so i think u dont miss any of the features in stock launcher
I am running the stock Rogers rom (2.3.3) and am rooted.
The phone came preloaded with 'phone' 'internet' 'email' and 'applications' shortcuts at the bottom of the screen (like so http://www.androidincanada.ca/web/c...9_with_three_year_contract_54999_outright.jpg). I would like to replace 'email' with the Gmail application and possibly add messages to the list. These items however can not be dragged around like normal home screen shortcuts/widgets.
How can I do this? I am rooted!
I think your best bet is to use a different Launcher that you can customize. I use ADWex it lets you chose from lots of different dock bars and you can use any icon you want or even edit the icon. Just be sure to download Home Switcher so the you can go back if you dont like the launcher and If you like whatever launcher you chose you can delete Twiz launcher all together with Titanium backup since you are already rooted.
Thanks for the reply, I would ideally like to keep the stock launcher. Is there a way using root explorer to change the path of the email icon so it goes to gmail (or even messages)
Hi. Does anyone have the default ADW EX Launcher messaging icons? It's the one with the smiley face. I want to replace the launcher with handcent messaging application instead of the default messaging application on the dock but still keep the default messaging icon. I can't find it anywhere on my phone.
Is there anyway to get a notification on the widgets like Gmail,Messages etc.? Sorry I mean with Slimbean 2.6.
Apex pro launcher is what I use. Shows email, missed calls and texts

Go Launcher shows notifications on any icon that can show them, Apex and Nova show some in a more limited fashion. There are some widgets that show it (Handcent has a 1x1 widget that shows notifications).
Thank you very much for the info....
