Updating Tile Counts

The following is a guide to updating tile counts in Metro UI 2.0. This guide is designed for developers that want to support this feature.


  1. Add permission to your manifest file:
    <uses-permission android:name="chrisman.android.home.metroui2.UPDATE_TILE_PERMISSION" />
  2. Send Intent with necessary extras:
    Intent i = new Intent();
    i.setAction("chrisman.android.home.metroui2.UPDATE_TILE_INTENT");
    i.putExtra("chrisman.android.home.metroui2.NAME_EXTRA", "com.sec.android.app.dialertab.DialerTabActivity");
    i.putExtra("chrisman.android.home.metroui2.PACKAGE_EXTRA", "com.sec.android.app.dialertab");
    i.putExtra("chrisman.android.home.metroui2.COUNT_EXTRA", MissedCallCount);
    getApplicationContext().sendBroadcast(i);
