Installed Nova launcher but wondering what functionality gets removed

[DroidRageYo]

Hi all,

I just installed the nova launcher which i love. However now it looks like I don't get numbers over messages when I receive a new message. I'm wondering if there's a way to get this back or is it gone for good? Also , does this affect other things like the edge lighting etc. I've definitely noticed that although this phone is heavily customizable , the stock functionality is very sensitive to change.

Best,
DRY

Im just trying to find out how to lock the nova settings though >.> without locking the whole home launcher...

At the bottom of the settings screen there is an option for unread counts, you need to run that then it will prompt you to run another app (telsa unread (something like that). Then you will be able to choose the style etc and the apps you want the counts on.

Oh no! I think it's only for nova launcher prime

I don't think any functionality is lost as far as I can see. Always install Nova Launcher full version and run Tesla Unread. Great combo.

Well Nova is well worth the money. Plus Tesla unread also puts number badges on apps where TouchWiz doesn't.

Yes agreed it may very well be. This launcher dwarfs the stock launcher and provides everything I could want. I did install teslaunread and it seems to allow me to change the unread counts. Thanks for the help guys!

So sadly it does not appear to be working. I installed tesla unread and enabled the settings but I don't see any counts

Did you buy the full version? And also do the unread counts work when you have multiple apps in a folder?

It can be a little tricky the first time. After installing TeslaUnread, open the Nova Settings app, and tap Unread Count Badges. Make sure the switch is on at the upper right, and then tap TeslaUnread Settings. Now toggle on the app icons you want badges for. Have you done all of that already?

And ruin you for life. I've been using the TouchWiz launcher after a long and happy period with Nova Prime (even on this S7E initially), and I *still* try to use the pull down gesture to get to my Notifications...

Ahhh my bad I was being stingy. I just bought the full version and everything is working perfectly thanks for the help and suggestions
