You can try Gmail Unread Count, it works well on my DHD, LauncherPro, or Sense (roms tested : stock HTC, Leedroid, Cyanogen RC1).

+1. "Gmail Unread Count" is free in market and works really well. Has loads of customisation options too.

I use GMAIL Popup, does the job for me

HTC stock gmail apps do have unread email notification on the icon.

Thanks GUYs....
just installed it.....

Gmail Label Notifier is also good, if you want to keep an eye on multiple accounts or labels too.

[Q] email app and display mode !?!?

hey fellas
just wanna make sure its not just my i9000 SGS thats doing this
connected gmail app to my gmail account and email app to my hotmail account
my question/bug is related to the email app
all emails open ok ( and this is a random thing ) when clicked on but sometimes wont load unless i change the display mode from original to positive or vice-versa
is it just me or should this be reported as a bug ?
i like the positive view and would like to just keep it that way
what do you mean by positive and original mode?
the issue I have with my Emails is they stay on my phone for 2 days, then they totally get wiped out !!
I phoned Bell tech support and they were useless, they told me to phone samsung directely, I did so and they created a ticket for my Email problem
Waiting for an answer from Samsung
Will let you what they come up with
I would like to know how to set my phone up so that I get email notifications on my home screen. I have a shortcut to my mail inbox but it dosent show if mail has been received. ( only in the top bar) on my htc desire it would show on the shortcut itself how many I had. Im running on jm5 rooted and lag fix.

If you are using Gmail, it will show you the amount of new/unread email when you put the link on the buttons bar
if you like widgets then K9 email offers the option to create widgets on the desktop home screen to show unread email counts

[Q] Email Popup app?

hello,
I've been using Email Notifier on CM 6.1.3, but since upgrading to CM7 the app is not working anymore (no vibration, sound, notification icon). There is to be something wrong with K9-Mail too, guess that could be somehow related to new Gingerbread's APIs.
By the way, is anyone aware of an application that can:
1) play a sould on new mail
2) vibrate on new mail
3) show a popup with new email data/excerpt
1 a 2 could be achieved by K9 (if that was working) but AFAIK, 3 needs an external app.
Thank you
William
Gmail do all of that,
but only for Gmail :/
Any reason while all that stuff only works for gmail? General mail is really not bein treated well on Android.
1) play a sould on new mail
2) vibrate on new mail
3) show a popup with new email data/excerpt

Hi friend- In my opinion, popup app 'Pure grid messenger'
1. New mail noti with sound
2. Vibrate possible
3. Popup yeah-
4. Widget
5. Expensive. Damn....
6. Other services support. Twitter, call, sms, facebook, email(pop3)

I just feel more comfortable with K9-Mail.

[Android 2.2+] MissedIt! -Text-based notifications for missed calls/SMS/e-mails/apps

MissedIt!
Text-based notification widget for missed calls/SMS/e-mails/apps
Link to the app on Google Play
Get information about the number of missed calls, unread SMS, unread e-mail messages and notifications from virtually any application a glance with this simple yet very customizable widget. You can use it with any lockscreen replacement app to access all this information without need to unlock your phone.
Missed It! must be enabled as an Accessibility Service to be able to receive application notifications ('Settings » Accessibility » Accessibility services'). If enabled and application notifications not detected, try disabling and then re-enabling.
Requirements
Android version 2.2 and up.
Features
Reports number of missed calls, unread SMS and pending voicemails.
If you use Gmail or K-9 Mail, you can obtain the number of unread messages of each account individually. In the case of Gmail, you can also select which label to monitor.
Also reports notifications from any application that uses the notification bar to report events (including WhatsApp, Tweetdeck, e-mail clients, etc).
Customization of font and background color and transparency. Also font faces (can use fonts stored in external SD card) and styles (bold, italic, underline).
Customization of the layout (alignments, margins, etc).
Text messages can be customized to show whatever phrase you want.
Represent numbers as text.
Resizable widget on ICS. With previous Android versions, there are multiple widget sizes available (user can select which sizes appears in widget list).
-- PERMISSIONS USED --
READ_PHONE_STATE, to get the voicemail state.
CALL_PHONE, to directly call to voicemail if there is any pending message.
This looks promising! I wanted TxMissed to break into two lines, and you've got that going on here already. I'll give it a try!
Edited to say - it would be nice if the background could be made transparent, if it can be, I'm not sure how to do it. I do like that it only shows the pertinent info, right now I have one missed text, and that's all that shows. It would be nice if the number of missed itens could be spelled out, like 'one txt missed', rather than '1 txt missed', or am I also missing how to do that, too?

You can. Go to the appearance settings and click on "color" under background, and when the color picker comes up, drag the alpha slider over to the right. Alpha is the level of transparency. Farther to the right, you'll get zero transparency, while the left is more opaque.
Does anyone know how I can get this app to check my TweetDeck notifications? Is it even possible?
Tested Gmail support. The notification works but after checking my Gmail MissedIt! constantly force closes. Stock 2.2 Samsung Captivate I896.

It doesn't say anywhere that it supports TweetDeck so I would assume that it doesn't so far.

Currently you can't. But I think it could be possible in a near future using the notification abilities of ADW.Notifier.

The help shows all the parameters the application currently supports.
To all of you getting problems with the email, the application may not be querying the correct account. I will post today an updated version to fix this.
BTW, can you send me an extract of the logcat showing the error?
Edited: To temporarily disable checks on email account, go to Appearance, disable the Default output format and edit the Custom format to delete the [mails] parameter from the string. The application will know that we are no interested in that information and will not check for it.
new line not working
Looks like a nice app.
But the new line command doesn't work.
It shows all issues in one line.

seems working but havent tested intensively yet. some comments:
1) it doesn't display the messages until the event happenned? ie, it will only show "1 missed call", but nothing when there isn't any missed calls?
2) is it possible to enable starting the relevant apps (call log, default sms app, default email app) when we click on the message?
It's finally in the making! What I've been looking for for quite some time now.. Awesome! Definitely following this.

Thank you!
It is working fine for me.
OP, nice work. If you want help and (hopefully) would consider open sourcing it, I can get you some new features added
New version published
I was assuming that the first account returned by AccountManager was a Gmail account. If you was getting a FC when trying to get unread e-mails, please try this new version.
And now a question. Currently the application only handles the first gmail account returned by AccountManager. In the case of having multiple Gmail acounts on the phone, how do you prefer this to be handled? Let the user select what account to use or add the possibility of handle all of them? Please take in consideration that the last option will undoubtedly increase not only the complexity of the code, but also the UI, so before taking any action on this, I need to know if users will consider this option interesting.

ClockworkMod DesktopSMS: Sending and receiving texts from your XOOM (and desktop)

DesktopSMS forwards all your incoming SMS on your *Android Phone* to your Gmail to GTalk.
You can then reply to the chat request or email, and the response will be sent back from your phone as a text message. This is very similar to Google Voice, except you won't need a new number or anything annoying like that!
http://app.net/desktopsms
Installation:
1) Install DesktopSMS on your ANDROID PHONE. (Not onto your XOOM)
2) Login to Desktop SMS on your ANDROID ****PHONE****.
3) Install a Chat client like Google Talk (which may already be on your XOOM) onto your XOOM or desktop PC.
4) Receive a text. Watch as your text gets converted to an email and google chat message
5) Respond!
So, once again, this app is only installed on your phone. Then just install your favorite IM client on your desktop and tablet, and the rest will work magically!
You do not need to install this on both your phone and tablet like other apps. You do not need to be on the same network like other apps. This all works by magic (my servers).
Let me know what you think. This is in a free beta right now, so be prepared for some bugs! I'd love to hear your feedback.
Wrote you a PM
well, I don't have a smart phone so thats a problem.
I, like many others, have ditched their smartphomes and activated their xooms. I now only have a dummy phone. I didn't see a need in paying for two data plans because I ws rarey using my phone. Now I use it to talk and text.... even though I wish it was only to talk.
I am waiting for the day that I can SMS on my Xoom using my current phone number. Guess I'll jabe to keep waiting. lol
Works awesome...just had a conversation with myself, through gtalk. Hahaha havnt tried it with my xoom yet. But im pretty sure it will work just fine. Very good job
It looks great but I cannot seem to get it to work yet, Mr. Koush. I have it signed it with push notifications successfully on my gmail account on my OG Droid. I can do the test message from within the app and it pops up on my phone like always, but other than that it does nothing on my Xoom, or on anything else for that matter. It seems almost like the push notifications are not even being sent out.
EDIT: I found out what the problem was. I had the default messaging app totally disabled, as I am using Handcent SMS as a complete replacement to the default one. I would like to use Handcent SMS instead of the default one. I know its beta and I cannot wait for updates!

It looks like after you receive your first text from that person after you accepted the "chat invite" on your Gtalk account it syncs up with your current contact list automatically. It shows the phone number on the left side of the screen under your gmail account, but in the chat window it shows that contacts name in parenthesis.
This ofcourse is for if you are using the Xoom with Gtalk, such as myself. I haven't tried anything else yet.
Could it be that the contacts NAME will be in the gtalk LIST instead of phonenumber ?
OK, being a bit thick here.
I'm using GoSMS Pro, but as far as I know, the default messaging app is still active, just without any notifications... does this make a difference?
Not currently receiving any notifications in email or g-talk... :/

Are u signed in in the app? The first time the app froze, i had to go back into it and sign in.
Just tested it with my xoom and it works great.
Looking for a little help, I have the app installed on my HTC desire HD, and it will forward the text to my gmail and talk, but when I reply nothing happens. Am i missing something, I've triedreplying through talk and gmail, and nothing from both.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

*edit* update took care of it, never mind.
@Koush
I am having an issue getting the app to try it out. When I tell the system to send me a link, it does, but it sends me a link for the link request page again. It does not send me a link to the actual app.
EDIT: Nevermind. I figured it out. Shouldn't browse until I had my coffee.

Is it possible that your push servers are blocked in China?
I can correctly Login with Google Account, but get an error on 'registering with push server....' (takes long and eventually times out)
Error message: "Login failed. Please check your password. If the error persists, please send a log to the developer"
here is a log... maybe it helps analyze why i can't connect with the push servers...
Ok, it's just updated, and when I go to send a test SMS, it brings up
The application GoSMS was found installed. If you do not recieve a text message, please verify that it has not disabled SMS notifications in the application's settings.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So that's cool, then I send the test. GoSMS then pops up the text, as it always does.
However, it still doesn't appear to be sending me an email.
When it says "please verify that it has not disabled SMS notifications in the application's settings", does it mean the default Messaging app?
I've tested by disabling the taskbar notification for GoSMS and re-enabling it for the default Messaging app, but even then, there is no sound nor visual cue that an SMS has arrived... is this why it's not working? Has GoSMS broken my default messaging app?

SMS replacement!

I hate the gingerbread sms app. It is really lame on my opinion, i want a new app for sms. I tried Go sms but won't show my contacts only the ones saved on my google account but not the facebook ones, chomp sms does too and i hate that they have no themes! The only one that works okay is handcent sms but it is really slow!! it takes about 30 sec for the app to open! anyone knows a nice app for sms?
Check your settings on Go, works fine for almost everyone else.
posted via tappa tappa tappa
really? i just have a problem with my contacts, it'll only show the ones from my google account! it won't show my facebook contacts? it'll only show their numbers but no picture or name??
U can also get "go contacts" since u have go SMS..
They work well together
V's CDMA Hero
Mine syncs fine. I go to accounts and sync in the settings, ensure that Facebook is set to sync existing contacts, and my system is exactly how you describe you want yours. I do not use Go Contacts.

I'm using youlu address book. It's a dialer, sms, contact, etc all in one app. It's clean, simple, and way faster than Go or Handcent IMO.
