That is built into the Dialer apk.
If you do not know how to modify apk's - I suggest using a rom that already has what you want or try a different dialer from the Android Market.

I know how to change the icon in the apk but what I want to do isn't as simple.
I am using GO Contacts at the moment. Its a great replacement for the default dialer. My issue is if I change it in the apk when it updates it will go back to the default icon. I have tried placing the modified icons in framwork-res.apk but using the names that are used in the apk are not going to work (app_icon_contact.png, app_icon_dialer.png).
I have also added them to the launcher.
I am guessing the name for the icon will be something like com.jbapps.contact.png
Anyone have an idea on how to do this? I don't want to keep pulling the apk everytime the app updates just to change the icons.
I don't know why the messaging notification icon is a envelope. I keep thinking I have new mail. Is there an easy way to change that?
Thanks,
BR

Probably the easiest is to install a 3rd party SMS app like Go SMS Pro or Handcent.
Otherwise you'll have to replace the icon in a .apk.
If you mean the app icon you could use a launcher like nova,download an icon pack and change any icon you want.

I think he means the notification tray icon. If not... that's what i'm thinking of. Almost never know whether it's an e-mail or text that i received, except that text messages give you that shortcut right on the lockscreen.
Go SMS
Hi,
I'm trying to replace the Go SMS Icon on the default Samsung lockscreen, I use Go SMS for default sms and I'm running Nova launcher so have changed the go sms icon to ics icon. But on my lockscreen the go sms icon cannot be changed, is there away?? I have tried a few ICS lockscreen but none work to how I want, either double lock screen or look awful!
Can someone shed some light on best way.
Thanks

AFAIK, the icon cannot be changed on the default lockscreen. Only the application. The only way I can see to change the icon would be to edit the Go SMS Pro apk and change the icon file to the one you want. This however will need to be done again after every reboot.
Another way would be to create your own small application with the Icon you want, and have that just directly open Go SMS Pro.

Thank you for the reply... Hmm that's a shame as I do like the default lockscreen just the Go SMS Pro app looks awful on there!
I'm not sure how to create my own icon, was hoping that I could copy the stock messaging icon and replace the Go SMS one in root...
Oh well will just stick with Holo launcher now!
Thanks.

i think you can decompile the apk, change the icon sign it and install it and it will have the icon you replaced by default. but its not such an easy process.

Hmm think I might skip that, probably end up causing more damage than its worth!
Thanks though..

If you install widget locker, you can customize the lock screen using any combination of icons-to-apps that you want.

my thought exactly. or any replacement lockscreen that supports it.
I have the Viper ROM but I miss the little number notification when a text comes in over the message icon. Can anyone hook me up with this?
Thanks-Dan

I'm on kitkat on the moto g. For editing the notification icon, you only have to overwrite the stat_notify_sms.png from the messaging app?
