I wanted to mod the icons/themes, but do not know how to go about....
Is it all with the flashing new themes with CWM and even icons are the same?
Do we get icons for the default launcher with SGS3 or do we need to change the launcher to get the icons/themes?
Any tutorials would be real helpful,
Thanks guys

Now that the X10 Mini has been rooted, can someone make an HTC Desire theme, with icons and wallpaper?
I have tried Pandahome, aHome, xHome etc but none of them change the icons, they only change the Settings and Internet icons.
There is adw launcher in market and different themes, which have different icons.

Well, I tried ADW but it did not theme the icons.
You dont need root to change the icons and wallpaper.
Wallpaper i guess you know already.
To change the Icons you need Bettercut and preferably Open Home from the same developer.
You will need a Market enabler if you are not able to buy apps currently to see those apps cause i believe both are pay-apps.
And I'm asking again.
I rooted the phone and still theming is nowhere.
aHome, PandaHome, xHome, BetterCut, ADW Launcher DO NOT WORK. They only theme the YouTube, Browser and Settings icons. Can I do something else? As I said, I've already rooted the phone so I can do anything you want me to.
ADW launcher v. 1.1.3 have a sweet option for custom shortcuts.
It let you create a shortcut on the homescreen, and let you choose a custom name and picture for the icon.
it works great for giving your homescreen a special look

You are talking about changing the icon inside the App-Drawer? Then i agree , you can't change them with the launchers and so on. ADW.Launcher does theme more of them thant you are describing. Probably all icons , BUT it is the icon pack that must have the appropriate icons for the apps you want to have themed. I am just now running the Sticker pack for ADW and there are a lot more themed icons.
Bettercut and so on can only (as far as i know) theme them when you make a shortcut on one of your homescreens.
Whatever this has to do with a Desire theme though i have no idea.
I just made the switch over to go launcher ex & I really like the default theme but there are so little icons. Does anyone have custom icons for the default theme but for a lot more apps? I have searched everywhere, but can't find the default theme... thanks!

Thanks... I searched through already but maybe I will take another pass. I had LPP on my EVO 4G with tons if stock icons so it seems odd that it's different with go launcher.
Hi Folks !
I've got a question for you all ? Hope you can tell me more.
I've got a *.mtz file.
I have extracted the icons folder.
Question is :
How can I turn these icons into an icon pack compatible with Go Launcher EX ?
Thanks for your help.

More information is needed as to "default wallpaper and layout" ? as CM7 for Wildfire originally has a Theme Manager supplied with a few themes for you to change it. For more information on choosing the right theme or applying your desired themer, you may refer to this link:

No theme can change the layout of your phone. Initially, I was under the impression (and still am) that the themes cannot change your wallpaper as well, but there are a few posts which state that themes can change the wallpaper. (Yet to see it myself though - But, I am very sure on the layout part)
Besides, theme choosers use a lot of 3rd party apps like clock / weather widgets, minimalistic text etc to get their desired layout that best suits the theme. If you don't have these installed, how can it work?
Hey Thank you Xeno for your reply...
What you said makes sense...
But the question I would want to ask if, if a theme is download on the phone... Is it not supposed to load the wallpapers, clock, calender, etc. on it own?
I am sorry, I might sound to be a dumb A** but am new here and EAGER to learn.
I purchased a few themes thinking they would be fully loaded but to my surprise they werent.
For E.g.:
I Purchased the MattedBlues LauncherPro Theme from the market.
A pop-up came saying 'Sorry, this theme is missing assets for your devices screen size'.
From what I have read, I selected CONTINUE ANYWAY and Rebooted!
And all it changed was just the COLOR for Icons. Rest all remained the same, I mean the wallpaper, layout, icons...
Is there is a beginners guide I need to refer to for CM7?
Thank you in advance Buddy...
It's a LP theme buddy. If you needed the entire thing, you should have purchased the Theme Chooser Theme for CM7 (Which I have - And, it's fantastic, may I add ). And no, no theme can change the layout as I said before. Different themes theme a different number of elements, so again, your mileage may vary.
For the MB Theme, it is the colour that is the main appeal. They follow the stock look, but change the colour. It can be seen in the screenshots as well.
One last thing - Most of the theming stuff are for HDPI Phones, infact, the MB LP Theme explicitly says no MDPI version, and the Wildfire is LDPI. So, one's mileage with theming stuff will vary a lot between themes.
Basic Ready Reckoner: (What I have stated below are the "best case scenario". Some themes may change one or more elements)
- LP / ADW Themes changes the icons, the launcher specific widgets, and the wallpaper
- CM7 Themes changes the entire UI essentially - Menus, Status Bar, Default Widgets, Icons, Dialer etc. It cannot theme elements like the Lockscreen, some system menus etc
Long story short: i have Samsung JB 4.1.2 rooted-deodexed and i want to change the icons. Is there any way i can do this? Most of the icons pack are for other launchers, not for TW. Can i change them "manually" without an installation pack? i am most interested on the drawer icons but i will not complain if i can change all of them...
to be more clear: i want to keep the touchwiz, so it is not an option to change the launcher.
thank you!
I am new to themer and I like a lot of the themes but some have like the music bar or something that I'd like to remove or change with something else. Is this possible ? Or is the theme the theme and you can't change the home screen stuff ?
Thanks
