You know when get misscall, messages, emails etc. and it shows a number inside a red circle... That is the badge... Very useful when you think about it. My previous phone was Samsung s5.... It had this. Now I am missing it... Can't tell if I have any whatsapp messages. How many miscall. Feel free to to comment and may be someone will have solution.

[request] App to turn SMS receive off

I like to have my phone plugged into my car cradle, but don't want my passengers to read my SMSs over my shoulder.
Could someone please program an app to turn toggle SMS reception whilst leaving the phone active?
I know that this might be the ugliest of hacks, but my privacy is important to me.
Thanks.
Sounds like you want to disable access to the Inbox, not receipt of SMS right?
If so, there are some options floating around to disable access to the inbox.
If you really want to do what you describe, and prevent receipt of sms, I can write something to do that I think, subject to time pressures
Can't promise though.
But I'd suggest going for an inbox locker before an SMS blocker.

Thanks for the reply Vijay =)
What I need is to stop the phone from popping up the message in a notification. Going to the inbox isn't a problem as long as there isn't an alert or a notification.
I'll PM you the reason.
PReDiToR - from your pm, I think really you just need to disable notifications for SMS. I think if you also check the registry there's a registry key for received SMS (I may be wrong. There is one for message sent).
If you're still having troubles, I'll think about a 3rd party solution, but my thinking is it's quite complicated... but I need to think about it anyway

[Q] Question about Gmail Notifications

So here's my problem - when I read an e-mail from gmail on my computer, I get a notification from gmail on the phone that I have a new email. I guess when the new mail number goes down, it sends a notification, even though I haven't actually gotten a new email. For instance, if I have 10 unread emails in gmail, and read one of them on a computer, my phone will emit one notification, when the unread count goes from 10 to 9. It's starting to drive me nuts, but I can't find how to fix it.
Anyone else experience this? How can I fix it so that my phone gmail only gives a notification when a new email actually arrives? Not every time the unread count changes?
No responses...? I'm assuming either I wasn't clear or no one else is experiencing this...or that this is the norm and I'm bat****. Either way, I'd appreciate someone with some info to tell me which of these is the reality, cuz if there IS something I can do about it, I would really like to know. Or, if there's nothing I can do about it, to just make myself get over it lol.
Again, briefly: When I read a gmail email on my computer, I get a notification on my phone showing that the unread messages have gone down by one. Is there a setting so that I only get notifications when a NEW EMAIL actually arrives?
I swear I've been playing all around with gmail and can't figure this out.
Im having a problem with it telling me I have 10 emails in the application on phone, but I have to sync a dozen times for it to show me a few of them.

I want to say that's in the settings - SMS Delivery. This bugged me as well and I think that's how I fixed it.
Can't you just create a filter to automatically mark them as read, and move them to a folder?
You likely already found your answer, but I found this thread searching for a solution.
For anyone else out there wondering, if you open the DeskSMS app on the phone, you can simply disable all email/talk push notifications.

[Q] Hangouts Notification

The hangouts application is my preferred way to SMS and text. When I receive a message, I receive a notification like I should. After I open the hangouts app and then engage in further conversation, I get a notification sound after each message I receive although I am still chatting to the person. The notification sound rings with each incoming message weather I am in the application, within the very chat, or weather I am on the homescreen or anywhere else. The only way I've known to subdue it is by turning off the sound notification for hangouts messages completely.
I've had this problem since 4.4.0 update. Today after I flashed Lollipop I was expecting it to go away but it didn't. I thought about it and then decided to ask if anybody else have had the problem before.
Something I strongly suspect is when I cleared the "Google services Framework" in hopes of getting 4.4.0 OTA ASAP I might have messed up. At that time this was suggested by many websites which later turned out to be counter helpful and create problems with the GCM.
So, if anybody knows how it could be fixed, and I could get notifications in the normal way it would be much helpful.
Thank you.

Notifications, some do not appear

Hey guys
Somehow my missed calls, new text messages or also skype do not appear in the notifications, even though I did activate the skype notifications. I could not find any setting for the phone/text messages.
It works well for FB-messages, whats app and other apps.
Does anybody have an idea why?
