91iHome, according to me, is the best MIUI style launcher at the moment. Its faster than MiHome and most importantly you can change the app icons as well as app labels!
I've my own icon pack and I want to use with it. But I've no clue how to make a theme for that launcher. The launcher does support themes and has a theme chooser. Google wasn't kind enough with answers for me. This launcher, esp. its developer, is pretty much obscure...
Anyone know how to make a theme for this launcher?
P.S.: One more reason why this launcher I prefer because its one of the three launchers that provide slightly bigger (and hence more clarity) icons like in iOS. The other two are MiHome and QQ (latest ver from Play Store).
MiHome is slow and no app-rename option. And making a theme for QQ is too damn difficult... :crying:

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.
Not sure if anyone here can help, but you guys are so helpful I thought I'd give it a shot. My wife likes the style of the icons for the iPhone apps, but definitely doesn't want an iPhone. Any way I can make the icons that show up in her app drawer have the iPhone look, possibly without rooting it?

I'm not sure how to make it show up in the app drawer, but it's definitely possible to make the icons show up on the home screen. And you can do it without root too.
First, download a launcher from the market called launcher pro. You don't need plus. The free version is fine.
Second, download your icons.
Third, press and hold on the homescreen until a pop up appears. Select shortcuts, then select applications. Choose your app, select custom icon, and then select your icon of choice from the folder your icons are located in when your gallery shows up.
Your app should appear with the custom icon on the homescreen now.
Hope that helps!

Yeah, she's using launcher pro now. I knew I could do that with the dock but didn't realize you could choose a custom icon for the shortcuts and also wasn't sure about the app drawer part. I may see if just changing what she sees on her homescreen will satisfy her. Any suggestions on iphone style icons?

I think that ADW Launcher themes can theme the drawer icons. If she is hesitant about changing Launchers, ADW Ex adds some of the Launcher Pro Features that the free ADW Launcher does not have (and also some that Launcher Pro doesn't have).

He's right and if I remember correctly there is even an ADW theme that changes the icons to look iphonish.
Sweet, I'll have to look into that. Is ADW just as smooth as Launcher Pro?

Currently, I would say that ADW might even be faster than LauncherPro. That wasn't always true. I use LauncherPro Plus, because I like the widgets, but I have been playing with ADW Ex recently and it seems very fast on my phone. The developer of LauncherPro is currently working on rebuilding it from scratch, so it might speed up in the future.
where can i get some pretty hott icons and how do i install them after i find them...
Suave Icons are very nice. The Suave Iconset has nearly every app in it.
I use Go Launcher EX as my homescreen, just install from the play store (it's not free anymore though) and select it from the Go Launcher EX preferences. I think Suave exists for many launchers.
See screenshot below.
i hate go launcher...im on APEX anyways...and i know theres gotta be nicer icons out there than that....thanks though
I believe there are themes you can download for apex launcher. After that go into theme chooser and you can select what icon pack you want to use.
Well, it's all up to taste, search the market apex and nova can use go and Adw themes. I use mitch's flat icons

For icon changing, I recommend using Desktop Visualizer and then any icon files you want for ultimate customisation even if you use stock launcher
Hey, i just want to know what is launcher on this ss (in attachments)
Thanks a lot
Hi,
This could be anyone that support theme.
If you want something like that try the APEX or NOVA luncher and explore the millions themes on google play.
Yeah usually apex or nova supports the majority of the themes second running i think would be adw or holo. apex and nova are only available on ics or above tho.
Has someone developed a cloned or modified TouchWiz Home that is capable of using icon packs, gestures and other features seen on other launchers?
I want to revert to using the default launcher, because in terms of UX it's more efficient, for example the app drawer slide/reveal animation is less jarring, centred app page label and better icon spacing, Also I have noticed icons look sharper with more vivid colour (In Nova, even if I use the default icons they look de-saturated and less sharp no matter the size). More importantly though is the fast performance, the only launcher I've tried that is speedy is Nougat Launcher by N Dev Team, but it contains ads.

My Favorite Icons: Whicons together with Nova Launcher. It's not so colorfull eyecancered, only white and really beautiful done, best together with a space or night background image.
"arraw launcher " by microsoft in google play
:good:
Hey.. I'm not sure about the swipe, gestures or any other features that you want..
But you can apply third party icon packs using [APP][4.1.2+] WizIconizer 1.08 Beta - TouchWiz UI Icon Changer
Cheers
