I'm new to using themes and icon packs. I have an S2x running Nova Launcher Prime and WidgetLocker. However, I'm unsure as to how to tell which sliders and icons are compatible with the programs. (GOlauncher/Apex?) Also, when users post screens of their sliders, are the clock widgets they use on their screen downloadable or found on the Play Store?
Thanks

I've purchased Fancy Widget is this what you are talking about? Among that there are NUMEROUS others.
Go weather has a free skin for it.

Weather and toggle widget " in the market"

I use Beautiful Widgets, the latest version. Although the best BW clock IMO was the last version before the C&D letter went out. Unfortunately the google weather updates stopped working with that version as well.
Fancy Widgets is nice, too. They have a new version that merged the old free and Pro versions. But if you like extra toggles and such, for the money I think Beautiful Widgets is a better value.
Of all I've tried fancy widget pro is best using the h7c clock and weather skins.

I'd like to change GOSms icon with the stock SMS app icon to put it on dock and replace the stock SMS app, how can I change an app icon with touchwitz? I'd change it because GOSms icon is smaller than other icons in the dock and it's very ugly
Desktop visualizer :good:
Thanks my friend! Very useful!
I know its not a direct answer to your question but you could try another launcher. Apex Launcher allows full control over icons and titles for every item on your home screens.
Forgive me for crashing the thread, but I also need some help changing icons. I want to change the dock icons (on stock Rom) and I am using apex launcher pro. On my HTC Sensation and apex launcher, all I need to do is long press the icon and I then have the option to change it, but when I long press on sgs, the only option I get is to remove app. I am sure it must be simple, can someone help me out. Thanks.
I feel a bit stupid now. After uninstalling all third party launchers and re-installing them, I now have all the correct options to edit the dock icons.

is there any way to change the stock icon in the touchwiz lock screen? I can use desktop visualizer to create the shortcut with new icon on the dock, but touchwiz lock screen icons I cannot change to customize.

I have the NonSense ICS ROM installed on my phone. It has Apex Launcher installed which supports Go Launcher Themes. Yet for some reason it only enables the icons. Any ideas why?
There is an option for 'skin' and 'fonts' but they are greyed out.
Any way to fix this? Or is there cuttently no support for the full themes?

Have you upgraded from the free version?
According to google play Apex Launcher Pro unlocks the following features:
- Multiple configurable drawer tabs
- Unread count notifications
- Dock swipe gestures
- Two finger gestures
- More transition effects
- ADW, LauncherPro, and Go Launcher theme support
- Batch add option for folders
- Option to merge folder contents
- Widgets in dock (1x1 only)
- Overlapping widgets
- More features on the way!
Apex was cool but I have yet to find a launcher that has everything I want all in one. Each launcher has something I like, but none all in one.
I saw that, but does that just mean icon support or the entire theme? I don't want to spend the money only to be disappointed
Yeah haha that's so true! Every launcher has pros and cons haha

Oh really? Were they free themes? What were the themes names? I wanna try them out haha
there are several free themes for apex launcher on play store...
i'm also using apex, because sense is eating a lot of ram
I had asked this in a different part of the forums but then realized this is probably where it belongs. I'm looking for a clockwork/steampunk clock and weather widget. I have yet to find one I like. I downloaded UCCW and tried messing with it but I'm not very good at it. Is there anyone out there that has designed their own or know of any?
Also how would I get different icons without using a whole theme or downloading a new launcher? I'm running on the Liquid smooth JB ROM and I like the included launcher.

Is there any mod out there that can disable the icon names from the homescreen?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Most homescreen replacements can do this. I personally use GoLauncher and use that feature.
Here is my setup:
Hyperdrive ROM
Cobalt Theme
Blackout Google Playstore / Dropbox / GMail
Blackout Dialer/Contacts/SMS
Replacement Icons by SeriouslyCrazy
MultiWindow

As noted above - I use Nova launcher and turn off app labels as well. I think you'll find Nova, Apex, or Go Launcher superior to the stock launcher.
sorry but I am not a fan of AOSP. I really like TW. Besides, Won't Nova launcher override Hyperdrive's settings/ tweaks?

Nope. I'm using Nova prime right now. Just don't flash any framework mods lol. 3 minit kills a lot of stuff (aosp lock screen, extended menu etc)

Nova takes the labels away for me... Using nova prime on beans v5 with xposed framework installed
For those using nova..
Go to nova settings:
Desktop
Icons and widgets
Label icons

Nottach and desktop visualizer will allow you to do that to Touchwiz launcher.

Nottach only hides dock and quick setting labels.. I am not going through each icon with desktop visualizer just to hide the stupid labels. I really wish there were more development for this phone besides colors. Im all about performance. Any other suggestions here? If not, please close the thread.

Someone would probably have to modify the tw launcher itself to do that which I've never seen one to do it being most just use third party apps and launchers for those things it's not really worth the time to make...I don't think you'll find any options aside from what's been suggested...have an all white wallpaper so you just can't see them? Unfortunately using tw launcher doesn't leave many customization options...best bet would be finding a dev that does modifications to tw and see if they'd be willing to take the time to modify it but imo seems like a lot of work for something that already has multiple ways of being done...I've never seen any mod specifically for that, just a bunch of apps n different launchers

You should prob make it yourself or just continue being lazy and whine about it. Doesn't matter either way to me. You want it bad enough? Do something about it.

I have been waiting for this as well. Maybe if enough people bring it up in the 3minit thread gharrington will notice and look into it. I like to mention ideas for s4 mods in there, he's doing awesome stuff.
Anyone?
