is there anyway i can change widget icons? for example advance task killer? I've used desktop visualizer but it only changes launch icons which will launch the program not the widget. also how can i change the icons in the main menu??
AFAIK there is no way but repacking the apk with an other icon...

Is it possible to do this? ADW for example does not resize them properly.

ADW (and ADW EX) can resize widgets too, but appear to just be capable of stretching widgets rather than resizing them using the widget's internal resizing capabilities.
For example: by default, the Accuweather.com widget is a 2x1 widget that you can resize in TouchWiz (e.g. to a 4x1 widget). Resizing the widget modifies the content that is displayed e.g. when you resize it from 2x1 to 4x1, it adds high/low temperature and a summary of the current conditions.
When you add the Accuweather.com widget in ADW, you get a pop-up asking what the dimensions of the widget are. If you choose 4x1, it simply stretches the 2x1 widget out.
Does Launcher Pro work the same as ADW in this regard? I've added screenshots so you can see what I mean.
No idea I dont use it. Stock touchwiz atm

Can anyone suggest a good app that will allow a user to change the icon for an app?
I was using ADW EX and could change the icons anytime thanks for the fantastic integrated editing features of the launcher. But I'm giving Sense a thorough test drive for the first time and really like it, so I'd like to use all the custom icons I bought from Tha Phlash.
Follow-up: Is there a way to add a fifth column and/or fifth row?
Desktop Visualizer, it only changes them on the home screens tho, not the app drawer

Thanks, guys. Desktop Visualizer worked perfectly.

Is there a way to change all the icons? App drawer included?
I've been using GO Launcher EX. I removed Sense, installed Ziggy's kernel, and installed ThaIconUltimate to change all my icons. It was a little sluggish at first, but it's running silky smooth ever since I flashed Ziggy's kernel.
In the screenshot attached, you'll see I have 5 icons across the bottom row, then 5 columns x 4 rows of icons on each screen. GO Launcher lets you customize how many rows/columns you'd like to add.
I'd like to change GOSms icon with the stock SMS app icon to put it on dock and replace the stock SMS app, how can I change an app icon with touchwitz? I'd change it because GOSms icon is smaller than other icons in the dock and it's very ugly
Desktop visualizer :good:
Thanks my friend! Very useful!
I know its not a direct answer to your question but you could try another launcher. Apex Launcher allows full control over icons and titles for every item on your home screens.
Forgive me for crashing the thread, but I also need some help changing icons. I want to change the dock icons (on stock Rom) and I am using apex launcher pro. On my HTC Sensation and apex launcher, all I need to do is long press the icon and I then have the option to change it, but when I long press on sgs, the only option I get is to remove app. I am sure it must be simple, can someone help me out. Thanks.
I feel a bit stupid now. After uninstalling all third party launchers and re-installing them, I now have all the correct options to edit the dock icons.

is there any way to change the stock icon in the touchwiz lock screen? I can use desktop visualizer to create the shortcut with new icon on the dock, but touchwiz lock screen icons I cannot change to customize.

Hello all,
On my GS2 I was able to resize widgets by press-hold then shrink. I hate the 4x2 size of clock/weather widget and like to use a 1x2 instead. Just wondering if that was lost or I am missing something real easy. If not possible I have seen a few widgets for free on Play store that have different size weather and clock widgets.
Thanks,
Brad
Apex launcher allows you to resize. I believe you need root access for that feature though.

Hello,
IS there a way to keep my stock SMS icon and have it open up Handcent instead of the stock messaging app. I really don't like the Handcent blue icon up on my menu bar.
Thanks,
Mike
If you use custom launcher, like Apex Launcher, you can edit icons and even names of the app.
And if you prefer Sense you could use Desktop Visualizer.

It's what I'm doing, I also replaced the icon for the phone dialer...
you can also get the Sense Icons from somewhere and use Bettercut
I used it to customize my icons and added them to the dock
I use Apex Launcher. It can do just about anything with icons and your home screen.

That's some good photoshop work
Does Nova Launcher have a feature like this? Where you can change the icons around?
