Just get ADW EX and customize that, unless you you can use SDK and edit the command string. that would be the only way I know how to do it.

Not sure if anyone here can help, but you guys are so helpful I thought I'd give it a shot. My wife likes the style of the icons for the iPhone apps, but definitely doesn't want an iPhone. Any way I can make the icons that show up in her app drawer have the iPhone look, possibly without rooting it?
(disclaimer- if mod's feel the need to delete, do so, just let me know)
I'm not sure how to make it show up in the app drawer, but it's definitely possible to make the icons show up on the home screen. And you can do it without root too.
First, download a launcher from the market called launcher pro. You don't need plus. The free version is fine.
Second, download your icons.
Third, press and hold on the homescreen until a pop up appears. Select shortcuts, then select applications. Choose your app, select custom icon, and then select your icon of choice from the folder your icons are located in when your gallery shows up.
Your app should appear with the custom icon on the homescreen now.
Hope that helps!

Yeah, she's using launcher pro now. I knew I could do that with the dock but didn't realize you could choose a custom icon for the shortcuts and also wasn't sure about the app drawer part. I may see if just changing what she sees on her homescreen will satisfy her. Any suggestions on iphone style icons?

I think that ADW Launcher themes can theme the drawer icons. If she is hesitant about changing Launchers, ADW Ex adds some of the Launcher Pro Features that the free ADW Launcher does not have (and also some that Launcher Pro doesn't have).

He's right and if I remember correctly there is even an ADW theme that changes the icons to look iphonish.
Sweet, I'll have to look into that. Is ADW just as smooth as Launcher Pro?

Currently, I would say that ADW might even be faster than LauncherPro. That wasn't always true. I use LauncherPro Plus, because I like the widgets, but I have been playing with ADW Ex recently and it seems very fast on my phone. The developer of LauncherPro is currently working on rebuilding it from scratch, so it might speed up in the future.
That's the icon on the right little bar on the home page. I also added some Widgets like picture frames but now can't get them to delete.
Switch to another launcher, like Launcher Pro. This will allow you to customize the home screen and dock with whatever icons you like. If you upgrade to the paid version you can resize the widgets as well.
With the Widgets I wish I knew how to delete them. They don't seem to call up the trashcan when you grab them.
Not too sure about that, I didn't use the stock android launcher for long enough to try that. Like I said, I recommend Launcher Pro. You can also try ADW or Zeam. Although Zeam is not longer being worked on.
x2 on Launcher Pro. The only reason why I don't add that by default is that I think it should be the user's option. Some like LP, some like ADW. So, I add a stock Goggle Launcher just you have a basic Launcher until you replace it.
i dont like the app drawer of launcher pro...is there a way to change it..???..
i want to stick to launcher because of the widgets it has...is there such a launcher with better app drawer and supports folders??
what exactly dont you like? The scroll direction, size of icons, number of rows / colums? all of this is easily tweaked with launcher pro. It would help if you told us exactly what you do not like. I prefer ADW EX personally
Try Go Launcher EX from the market.

Agree! Go Dev Team is making new widgets too!
I'll quote myself from another post:
I've been using Go Launcher Ex for the past weeks and it's great.
It has some good features like a latest used apps' list, apps can be uninstalled by the click of your finger in app browser etc.
However, ADW Launcher / Ex has beautiful themes you can use.
Both ADW and Go launchers are stable on my P500.

I have CM7 and I just installed ADW Launcher EX, one feature I am missing is that whenever I am on any homescreen but press the home button it takes me to default screen, is this feature only in CM7's version of ADW Launcher or am I having a bug ?
This is not another post asking how to make ADW Launcher EX my default Launcher, I am talking about homescreens.
You need to set a homescreen to your default homescreen first.
after you did so, everytime you press the home button it takes you to the homescreen you set as the default one.
dont know anyway...im not using adw ex

I couldn't find that option before Thanks.
A free advice!
You should switch to Go launcher Ex, far more customization than you can even think,i have tried both so you can really consider a switch + it had the option you're looking for and also there's an option to copy your current launcher's icons to it

Does anyone know how to change icon in go launcher? or is it only available in the go launcher ex version?
what do you guys suggest on a great launcher that can customize the icons that doesnt eat up alot of battery and ram but still can give enough room for customizing the feel and look

I think you are already using GO Launcher EX (which is totally free).
If you are referring to the icons in the dock, then to change the icon, just tap and hold then select "replace icon". You can also download GO Launcher themes and apply them to change the icons look and feel.
I think GO Launcher EX is a quite decent and fully customizable, but if you prefer launchers similar to stock ICS, then try Apex launcher (free).
I wouldn't worry at all about ram or performance, as Galaxy S3 is more than capable for such simple tasks.
I just downloaded a theme. Does anyone know where it is stored so that i can add my custom icons?
