Looking for an app that would be able to add app badges to the stock email, calendar and hangsouts app icons while using stock launcher. Ideally looking for the badge to have a count for unread items, but a simple visual indicator only would work as well.

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?
When I got Apex Launcher Pro, I was under the impression that it would be able to add unread badges to all my apps using a toggle in the Accessibility menu, and that's not the case at all. Instead, developers must use Apex's built-in API for unread badges to appear. The problem is that there's no good way to find apps that support this API, so it might be nice to have a list of the apps that do. I'll start:
Messaging + GV
Aquamail
facebook would be nice (unread notifications badge)
Use Missed it! From the playstore for ALL your apps
Works perfectly amd also the dev has a thread here on xda

I'm looking for a launcher, app or something that can said me how many unread mail i have in stock email app without. Other option is find an email app with exchange account with this option.
I have tried Nova Launcher, Apex Launcher, dashclock with apex launcher and neither works correctly. They do not count the number of unread messages correctly.
Thanks!
You could place an email widget. Dashclock extension should work though.

I think it is the ability of the launcher.
Nova Launcher prime has notification icons for missed notifications for apps.
Hi All,
My very first post on XDA forums, i have used these forums for great help in the past.
I'm a little stumped at the moment, i am using Dodol Launcher on my Nexus 5 with Lollipop OS, i'm about 90% happy with the whole launcher, just need to know if there's any good notification badge applications out there for Ebay? so when i get notifications in Ebay, the badge app icon with notification count comes up on the homescreen icon? An app which lets me select which apps show homescreen unread badge counts on the icon would be perfect!
Also, is there a good email app which supports multiple email accounts (Gmail, Yahoo etc) all in one, and will combine the unread messages as a badge app count on the homescreen icon?
Any suggestions would help, please don't mention another launcher as i'm quite happy with Dodol at thei stage.
Thanks!
The email app you need is my mail. I use it and it is superb. Takes all accounts plus you get an email account from them which just uses your phone no as a pass word so can only be used on your phone. Makes for really good names. As you put say your name then its just @MY.com. I've Gmail Hotmail etc on it and it takes nova notification badges

I was looking for help disabling the app badge notifications for non-Samsung devices. All the searching I have done seems to point at changing launchers. I would like to figure out how to modify the stock rom. What I have tried so far is using ROM Toolbox Pro to disable the 'NotificationBroadcastReceiver' in the 'Advanced Freeze' section on an app that has the app badge notification. The app badge notification went away for a few minutes and then came back. Any ideas/suggestions would be much appreciated!
NOTE: I was thinking I might have to edit some .smali files of the app in question. If so, I use APK Editor Pro to disassemble APK files right from my device.
What do you mean by 'app badge notifications'? Notifications in system bar, or, for example, the number of unread messages for some messenger app that appears on the desktop?

The red bubble with the number that shows up on some app icons like Facebook, Messages, and even on folders if you have folders set up.
Hm, then I don't know either, my only option would be to change launcher as well.
I'm hoping there is a way to disable them by editing the smali code. I am learning smali now, seems similar to visual basic
