This may be a silly question, but when you pull the dropdown "notification" bar and tap on the icon in the top right corner to see your notification settings, in the first box (to left), it just has a default pic (i believe it should be me) and when i press on it, it says the "contact does not exist". Shouldn't this be my information? i just got the phone and have everything synced up to my google account, am i doing something wrong?
Google+ app, settings, keep contacts up to date
Sent from my XT1096 using XDA Free mobile app
Try in the People app, the first entry should be "Me". Update it.
Thanks. i'll give it a shot.
edit; Worked with the Google+ App. Thanks for the help.
The method of adding info to the "me" section of contacts works too.

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.
SMS seems to be working great, but it's not getting my email. Stock Thunderbolt w/ Go Launcher.

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.

Looks like a nice app.
But the new line command doesn't work.
It shows all issues in one line.

Are you using the default format string or a custom one? If so, please check that [nl] is correctly written (n-ew l-ine).

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.

Exactly. However, I plan to add an option to show the message even if no event happened.

Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
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.
I feel rather silly for asking this, but I cannot find where to change the text message tone for this phone.
Any clue where?
Settings, Notifications, Notification sound.

This is the 4th time I've seen someone give that exact answer, and I still cannot find that. My "Settings" doesn't have a "notification" tab on the first page.I can go to personalize, but it doesn't show SMS. It just shows Ringtone and Notification Sound.
If I go to the "sound" tab, I see "Ringtone" and one more "notification sound" but NOTHING about SMS.
Edit: I have gone though EVERY tab in the "settings" and there is not a single mention of SMS or anything besides "notification" sound, which only changes what I hear when I get Gmail and Facebook status

Thanks for trying....I wish they would have kept the Null thread still available but just closed...there was alot of useful info on that thread...anyways if anyone knows the trick to getting the direct message widget to work i would appreciate it...like i said when i click on it, it bring me to Titanium Backup for some reason.
What widget are you talking about?

The preinstalled widget on nulls rom that says "Direct Message"......I can get Direct Call to work but when i press on the direct message widget it takes me to Titanium backup form some reason....
as far as i know, you can't message from gear yet. direct dial do work, but not messaging.
Direct messaging ? I dont recall anything like this..
You sure you didnt have AOSP messages installed or something ? Cause I didnt include anything related to texts/messages..
If i look in my available widgets i also have an option for direct message. When i put it on the desktop with a contact selected it just says "App isn't installed". I'm assuming that direct dial only works if you have gearmanager installed on your phone? I tried to setup a contact and it just shows the dialing screen and doesn't do anything on the phone.

Could be apart of contacts in that case.. must includes a direct message widget also.
The direct dial should work fine, when the gear initiates a call it makes it on the host phone.

I believe it is. There is a direct message and a direct dial widget right next to each other.
I still have the issue where when I select either of them my contacts come up blank. I have contacts on the watch, they just do not show on that widget. They used to.
Any ideas?

I tried the direct dial, worked fine.. make sure you add your contacts to the aosp contacts app in your app drawer it does not pull your contacts from your phone.
Although direct message does not work.. I believe because there is no messaging app installed.

Yeah i understand what your saying about having not messaging app installed but i thought maybe it would be possible to give you the option to send a predefined message or s voice message. For some reason when I click on it it opens Titanium Backup. not a huge deal just thought it would be cool to click on the widget and send an s voice message or predefined message I had saved

Thats weird man, no idea what could be causing that.. In reality nothing has changed in that department since the last update..
In regards to predefined text replys, I believe there is a APK Samsung have included for this already.. In theory if we could call that popup in a app, perhaps you could select a reply...
Im just spit balling tho, I haven't tested or even looked at it yet.
If you want to see what im talking about create a shortcut using novalauncher to "Select reply".
EDIT: Decided to have a look of the source of the reply apk I mentioned, sadly thats not going to work ! Back to the drawing board.

Guys,
On my wife's Z1 she used to have a small SMS Widget that used to show up in the top right of her home screen.
Basically when she received a new message this widget popped up. Tapping on it opened up the message sent.
As I say it was a small circular widget and inside was a photo of the person or number who sent the message.
I would really like to know where it came from and why it has now disappeared.
All I know is the only Messaging Apps she has is the default and GoSMSPro Apps installed.

Thanks but it's not Facebook Messenger, I know that for sure.
At first I thought it was a product produced by using GoSMSPro but that brings up it's own themed window, not the round one that always appears in the top right of the screen.
I'll keep on looking and have a feeling without help it's going to take a long time to find it again.
I'm now to my Sony Xperia Z3 Compact after using the Samsung S2 and S3. The thing I loved about both the Samsung phones was when I pressed the contacts icon to send a test all I had to do was swipe from right to left on the contact, likewise to call the contact all I had to do was swipe the contact from left to right.
Neither of these functions are available in my Z3C.
Is there a setting of an app that will give me that functionality?
The built-in backup is fine and I'm not interested in syncing with facebook etc just want a quick way to send texts or call from the contact list like the Samsung.
try tapping the contact's picture from the list, it'll open a popup with shortcuts for calling/texting/whatsapp etc
thanks but just tapping the contact will do the same thing, either way not as simple as a quick swipe on the contact to actually call or text the contact.
I'll keep searching through the google apps store.
well you can try ExDialer just note that the swipe to call/text option isn't activated by default and needs to be activated from the app settings
