[Q] [HELP] About ADW Launcher, Themes, etc. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have read some threads/articles about this, but still I can't understand and don't have any solutions for it. Well here's my questions:
1. I want to modify/change the "application icons" not the "homescreen icons". Is there any way how to do it?
2. Can I modify some ADW Launcher Themes? How? (I have ADW Launcher Theme already, how can I edit/modify it?)
3. Is it okay even if my phone is not rooted?
I'm using Samsung Galaxy Ace. I just reformatted it. So I'm just using Gingerbread.

Themes in [Theme section] is flashing themes that you install thru xRecovery or Cwm.
ADW themes are fore the Home launcher app ADW. The ADW themes dont touch the physical memory of the phone and therefore its much more safe than Themes you flash alltough Flashing themes changes the whole design of the phone and ADW just changes the Homelauncher

Theme flashable through xrecovery of clockworkmod recovery change the framework, for example flshing a sense theme will make your mini look like sense ui
while theme for ADW are launcher based and vanish if you remove the launcher, moreover they dont't give a system wide transformation...

Ok, but, installing Go Launcher Ex Doesn't necessarily forces me to uninstall Touchwiz, doesn't it? Because i don't have root access (yet).

Nope
No launcher removes other launchers
Unless your launcher is a system launcher

Hey armedking if you want the touchwiz ux icons on tw 4 launcher follow these instructions:
First you go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883 and donwload the tw4 manager and install it.
Then you go to Check for updates & uninstall and to last stable version.
A popup will appear amd ask how to install it ift you are rooted choose system/app (This will let you uninstall apps from drawer).
It will install a new twlauncher with much more options and themes.
then you make a zip with the icons wich are named as PACKAGE name of the applications you want to skin.
Then you copy it to the INTERNAL SD card and hit menu in launcher
go to themes and them Install theme.
As next step you go to choose theme and choose your zip
At last you go back to launcher menu and hit restart and save.
I hope i can help you If I did tit the thanks button
