Good evening.
Something I miss on android devices and specifically on s21 is to get my email alerts in more detail on the lockscreen. On the iphone for example when mail arrives even gmail in the preview which has 4 lines to see the message. Do you know what I can do about it? For example the preview of the Hangout when I have an incoming message is 4-5 lines. In the mail how could I do it?
Thank you

Hello - I come from a Galaxy Nexus and love the S3, but the black backgrounds for the Exchange Email inbox and SMS inbox are not my favourites and I would prefer dark text on a light background. (I know the email messages themselves are black on white - that is good, but I would prefer the inbox to look this way as well)
I cannot find any way to change this within the standard functionality of the current firmware. Is it possible to do this without flashing a whole new ROM? (I have rooted the device but am on a standard build still)
Many thanks for any pointers.
Regards

For SMS inbox: open the messaging app, press menu button, tap "Settings", tap "Background style". Done. This is on stock. Not sure about the Email though.
Thanks for the reply - that does change the SMS history just fine - I hadn't looked at the SMS app too closely as it's mainly the email that's frustrating. Still no progress there unfortunately.

Hi guys
I am having this problem:
http://www.android.net/forum/htc-evo...-clearing.html
Basically when i receive new exchange based emails (2 different exchange accounts), i get a push notification on my phone. NIce. If i read it on my laptop/computer, some hours later i look at my phone and the NOTIFICATION bar still shows "40 unrea msgs" - yet the email icon doesnt show 40. If i go into the email app, they ARE all marked as read- and then finally the notification goes away.
Why is this?
Hello,
Does anybody knows how to reset the email count notification on Locksreen (Xperia Sola)?
Mine shows 9 unread emails, and my emails are read, so it should show no notification at all.
Thanks

I suspect that somewhere in your history or junk mail you have unread emails. I cannot use the feature on my now 6 year old gmail account as it shows 999+ unread!!
When my phone is lock and I put my hand over the sensor the screen comes up showing me the preview. It will show text notification icon, gmail icon and work email icon, but there is a Missed call notification, then next to that is an EMAIL notification. I have a work and personal email accounts set up on this, but the email icon next to the missed calls always shows zero even if I have unread mail in both accounts. Does anybody know how to set the email notification on that screen to actually show the number of emails?
Nobody has any answers for this issue?
Hi. I was wondering if it's possible to show notifications from gmail and/or facebook for the 5 contacts I have on my edge screen? I don't mean a distinct, separate notification; I mean linked to the contact so that when I get a notification from them, it appears in the same way a txt message would. It does appear to work for the Samsung email app, but not for gmail or FB.
Edit: Just saw the title typo. D'oh!!
