How to change touchwiz icons on main page? (phone,contacts,etc)
I would like to change the icons on the home screen such as phone, contacts, to something else....someone know how to do it?
Open the app draw, hit menu and just drag and drop the icons.

its a brilliant app, however there is one feature i still cannot figure out/dont know if its possible. I like the feature that allows you to place shortcuts in the notification menu. pretty basic. but everytime i do, the ugly ass default icon shows up in the bar, even if i apply a default/custom icon to the app.
does anyone know how to change the notification bar icon for those shortcuts?
What launcher are you using? I'm using launcher pro and have two folder organizer links on my dock, one for my android tools and another for internet stuff. The launcher lets you customize the icons for anything in the dock by long pressing on the icon/app. Give it a try.

im actually running bar control, i have been for quite a while, i just really want to be able to set my own icons. i mean folder organizer allows you to associate custom icons to apps, but for some reason it doesnt resize the icons to fit the notification bar
want to know if the apps at bottom of the theme can be switched with diff apps... being more specific, i use dolphin browser as my default but the stock browser is the app shown at bottom, can this be switched and how? running cyn's mod 7 at the moment. thanks in advance
You should be able to long press the icon and drag it off and then drag whatever you want there

Hi all,
Is it possible to change the home screen applications on the SGSII? (The ones in the dock)
If so, how?
Thanks

Hi rez1,
When I press edit, all I can change is the number of home screens, not those icons!
Any other ideas?
Thanks
U will have to hold and drag an app to the bottom icons and it will be replaced. Try it.

Ah ok - worked great!!
Thanks
Open the application menu, THEN click menu and edit and you can change the dock icons
Well, my app drawer disappeared on my CM7-beta1'd X2. Clicking the spot where the app drawer was pops up a friendly message to drag and drop an app to that spot. Any suggestions for getting it back?
While we're on the subject, is the app drawer slow and choppy for everyone else too? I should say that by "slow and choppy", I mean "not as buttery smooth as everything else"
Long click on homescreen, create a shortcut for tue app drawer, drag it to the spot on the dock.....should work for ya....

Hold your finger on your screen window will pop up. Push launcher actions then hit open close app drawer. Then drag the icon were you want it.
If you go to settings then adw launcher you can set app drawer speedsand preference.

The app drawer.. is.. a widget?
Well, at least it's back. Thanks!
You could also drag your finger from the bottom of the screen to just above the dock and the button will come back. Then drag back down to go back to the dock. I just did what everyone else did and put the widget button in the center, but if you want to use that spot for something else, the app drawer button is still available.

App drawer button is a shortcut. Cm7 comes with adw free and a common issue with users new to adw is that they will accidentally move shortcuts off the dock or even delete it. Above instructions will work to get your open/close app drawer shortcut back, but after you have things where you like I would recommend locking your homescreen. Also done in adw settings.

Freaked me out the first time too. There are other actions you can play with too other than just open the drawer.
On tje bottom of my home screen, it will only allow me to put 3 widgets. I want to add a 4th widget on the bottom next to the "apps" button, but I can't remember how. Any help? Thanks in advance.

If Using Nova...

If using Nova Launcher, go into home, advanced settings, overlap all widgets. Then go into dock, advanced settings, dock-as-overlay.
If using TouchWiz launcher, I am unclear on any solution.
