Hey guys im testing some things out with my phone, and i've searched google and looked through ALOT of places, but i can't find any ICS icons pack, i would like it to be stock- no changes - any idea where to find?
Download a ics rom and pull the icons from the apks with winrar or 7zip
Ice Cream Sandwich icons..
Nice thanks
Ok so I am very new to this so bare with me.. I'm on ICS Passion v11. For me to modify the icons such as the dock icons, do I flash them? or is there a certain process I have to do to change them. Sorry if it's been brought up already. I did use the search and was kind of lost on how to go about it.

You have to use Nova launcher or apex launcher in order to change icons. Those are like stock ics launchers but they allow you to change icons. Both are free in the market.

Hello,
i don´t like the TW-Launcher or all the other Home-Replacements. How can I use the stock launcher with my SGS SII (Android 4.0.3)????
Thank you!!!!
Greetings from Germany
I think you might have to push it. Have you checked out Nova launcher? Same launcher, more settings.

It has been mentioned, but I agree. Never tried Apex, since Nova, inside AOKP has always done it for me. Apex and Nova are equally cool, from what I've heard about Apex, lol. Matter of choice.

i like the nova launcher. It's a great launcher and looks like the ics stock launcher
I tried trebuchet from and launcher2 from galaxy nexus, both force closed when adding a widget...
I just copied them to data/app folder and set rights similar to other apps in the same folder. Do i need to do something differently?

Are you on ICS or GB?..
Also, I remember something about pushing it to system/app instead, something about a permission, exactly because of the widgets in app launcher. Try to move it to system apk instead.
Good luck. Launcher2, I wouldn't really count on. Trebutchet, Nova and Apex, I don't see why wouldn't work

Official ICS. Everything works now with trebuchet, had to run apk to install it. Just copying/pushing didn't do the trick.

Just tried apex, very decent launcher with a lot of function, fast, and looks good, thank you guys.
I saw apex was updated to support themes. I searched the market and didn't see many. Does anyone know of any there or on xda?

yeah, i saw it too thats why i updated and i tried to apply launcher pro miui icon pack from the market but i couldnt do so. how do i apply this icon pack? can it be done using apex free version?
With the hype about Apex supporting themes, you would think that there would be at least one out by now. hehe
It says it supports themes from ADW and Go, etc... But all it really supports are the icon packs and wallpapers, which you could already do with ROM Toolbox, etc...

Weird, mine only did that when Superuser was messed up, had some bad binaries or something and needed to be updated.
I am on Scott's CleanROM DE and it runs fine.
Yeah I haven't found any yet. But at least I can replace the icons on the home screens from an adw theme

I really am surprised that such a popular launcher that now supports themes, still hasn't had a single one made? Weird...

I don't consider a red wallpaper and a slight red tinge to the stock icons to be a "theme"...
if i saw right it will support themes from other launchers so just search themes for those. the one i used is an ics one. just search ics and its the one with the android sandwich. it works for all other launchers so i assume it works for apex

On most of the other launcher's themes, it just imports the icons and wallpaper... it is very limited in what it can do. Personally, the theming in general is kinda weak. Icons, some colors and things is about all that really changes. None of them truly theme the OS, IMHO

True, I was just hoping that Apex would be able to offer something other than Icon and Font packs, which we can get through Recovery, ROM Toolbox, etc...
Hi Guys,
I have made several themes which are specifically made for Apex.It's just that Google Play Store Search Engine sucks so it is hard to find themes.
Anyways, You can find my Apex Themes here

Apex is by far the best of the AOSP-look launchers.
Thank you. Nova Launcher is very smooth and fast except when you fill a page of apps and slide from a page to another. Can you tell me if is it possible change lockscreen to another similar Cyanogenmod 9 to?

TW4 is an abomination. I have switched to the Apex launcher which does a good job of giving a stock ICS feel, but I want rid of the fugly samsung TW icons for phone, messaging, contacts etc.
Whats the easiest way to do this?
rant
Why the **** would you bother changing the good things in stock ICS, like folders etc, and replace them with the sort of ugly and arduous **** we haven't had to deal with since Froyo in stock?
/rant
If you get Apex Pro you can use the adw ICS theme and use the icon pack from that in the Apex theme menu.
Just download an ICS icon pack and long press to change them using Apex launcher. Did a quick google search and found many. One link below.

Once you get your icon sets, Desktop Visualizer from the market gives you the ability to change any icon with any launcher and resize it depending on what you want.

Hey guys. I've been searching a way to make the CM 10.1 app drawer background become transparent. Can someone help me out?
I've followed some tuts (such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1835833) but they only teach how to make the notification bar transparent.
Thanks

I've tried launchers before. They worked, but I'd like to edit Trebuchet. I'd like to use default launcher. I'm not really into launchers

Apex and nova both have this option and are both based on the stock launcher, they just have a lot more features. They look identical to stock if all you change is the drawer transparency

Try both they both offer virtually the same features I use nova launcher, but thats cos I got the prime version in an app sale

ty very much! I'll use apex cause it's free. Maybe I'll move for nova pro later.
Both have free versions and an add on that costs money but adds lots of features
