Gmail widget

[PreGk]

Forgive me, but did the stock ROM have a gmail widget? I rooted and I cannot find a widget when making my home screen, did I lose it or was it never included? Thanks.

Yes it does have a gmail app and widget with the stock build.

I wonder why they took it out. I knew there had to be a Gmail widget.

Nope. The only stock email widget is for the HTC email client, and at that, only available through Sense.

Through something like LauncherPro however, a shortcut to the Gmail client in the dock can be optioned to act like a widget with unread counts and such.

hmmm?

Yes it does have a gmail app and widget with the stock build.

Im looking at my stock EVO right now and I'll be damned if I can find a Gmail widget...

Hmmm...

I thought my gmail icon used to indicate how many unread emails I had...

IVE NEVER seen a gmail widget... gmail app, yes. Widget... no.

No, there's no Gmail widget from Google. However, there are free Gmail widgets on the market that give you your unread inbox/email count on the Gmail icon.

I personally don't want a Gmail widget showing my email on my homescreen...don't want the wrong eyes to see something.

Sorry, my bad, you guys are correct. The stock setup only allows you to add a shortcut to the gmail app on the home screen.
I use the 'gmail unread count' widget found in the market.
Apologies to the OP, overlooked that I was using a 3rd party widget.
