Downloaded Apps Icon - Honor 5X Questions & Answers

So I assume this is a bug and not on purpose. The app icons from downloaded apps are cut at the corners. You can see in the theme previews that the default icons should have white backgrounds and the other two themes should be left alone. Anyone know if this is fixed in a newer build or is set to be fixed?

[Theme chooser] Stock-ldpi theme for CM 7.0 (udated 08/03/2011)

I'm using the CM from KalimochoAz, and it's working very well.
I've noticed that in the standard theme (Androidian) the status-bar icons are 25px height, but the status bar itself is 19px.
So the icons are rescaled and appear very blurred and almost unreadable (expecially the 3G one).
I have cropped all the png for status bar (extracted from Androidian.apk) to 19px, but I'm not able to repack them into a new theme.
Is there someone that can do that? I attach the images to this post, in case someone wants work on this issue...
Edit: i've repacked them into a new theme, there are probably some other icons to adjust...
Edit 01/03: other icons added
Edit 03/03: new version - gps icons fixed
Edit 08/03: this theme: Crispy Bread is more complete and resolves the same issue
Bye.

Ok, I've just repacked it in an apk theme.
I dont know how to specify that's a LDPI theme, so choosing it theme manager pop a warn: you can do "Apply anyway" and go on.
I've actually been wondering about this blurryness myself but this certainly solves it! Works really nice
Thank you!
New version with other icons cropped.
Some icons appear gray instead of green... this update fixes it too?
Hello, I use your apk and this theme : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943423
Really nice, together it's almost perfect, but if you know well android can you help me.
I changed few things in the apk, all worked well.
But I want to make horizontal lock bar in lockscreen looks invisible (they are grey translucide in CM7).
I modified the files "jog_tab..." but nothing changed.
Have you some clue?
P.S: With the honeycomb theme the lockscreen bar looks invisible when someone is calling, it's real nice.

Uhm... the icons are extracted from framework-res.apk of the cyanogenmod 7, some of theese are gray (for example the usb or the headphone one).
This theme only fix the blur effect due to the icons scaling from 25 to 19 pixels.

Little upgrade - 20110303

When making a theme widgets sometimes move each other.

When I try to add a zoomed widget in the same area as my weather widget, the weather widget was pushed off the screen and I can't get it back. Sure I can just try to make a new one but it's still running somewhere off the screen. Is there a way to list all widgets you have on screen? And delete them in that list? Or from a list default them to center of screen? I know the themer widgets can stack so why are they moving on their own? This is especially true if I try to edit a theme I download. As soon as I press configure or resize or add something the theme goes ape **** and everything just moves. Not using a custom dpi. Stock Rom galaxy note 3.

Hi vitessex,
We're not too sure how this happens, as testing it now reveals that a widget cannot push another one off the screen. However in your unlucky case, we suggest going into Themer's main settings - Advanced - Desktop - enable Allow overlapping Widgets. This should then just cause the widgets to overlap instead of jumping around.
Which downloaded themes are causing this? Most new themes should have the overlapping widget setting enabled to prevent this issue.

It seems to do it with all the themes I have downloaded. And even happened on the one I am making myself. But currently I will show an example with the theme "Coordinate." The overlapping Widgets option is enabled and this is what happens when I add a widget or edit in any way really.

I see. There might have been a bug during installation. Try this:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (removing the Exported folder within it if you saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.
Let me know how this goes.

Font Size Tiny in Notification Panel

I practically need a magnifying glass to read the notifications in the Notification panel. Changing the display settings font size does nothing. Any ideas?

try to change the design maybe it helps
Its has nothing to do with Design, I installed Nova Launcher and still the Notification fonts are really Tiny and Subject line of Gmail Notification in black fonts is unredable

I saw a video where someone had white notifications. I think it's on one of the downloable themes (you got to agree to allow access to imei), you can apply that, then customize the theme too add whichever icon pack you want etc
Edit - here it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRa4CC62aw0&t=0m8s
The theme is called 'beauty for emui'
None of the Home Screen Launchers will change the Notification Bar and the font size - however the EMUI themes will change the text colours, so try going to Themes, and change to Beauty for EMUI, you will be able to see the Gmail subject line because the background on the notification panel is now white - but then a new problem arises, lol, the banner notifications that come on the top of the screen are all black!!

Unfortunately even Beauty theme has its shortcomings. Gmail notification buttons DELETE and REPLY are now invisible because of the white on white contrast. Anyone hasa better theme solution for this problem?

POCO Launcher

POCO Launcher is surprisingly simple and elegant — at least, for Xiaomi. It might look simple, but it packs in plenty of options, including things as detailed as different transition animations, sort of like Nova Launcher. The app drawer is accessible via a convenient and typical upward swipe, and apps are organized by type into categories like communication and entertainment.
The setup process is straightforward, and there are a surprising number of individual settings to explore, though it doesn't hold a candle to things like Nova Launcher when it comes to sheer customization options. Presumably, it's also in active development, so we should see more features landing soon.
Unfortunately, we can't download it over on the Play Store since the beta program registration is currently full. However, we can download it from APK Mirror .

I would like to see a dark theme in it... But all of MIUI has light theme..
I would have loved to see an option to resize the icons, did not find it through the setting so far, wonder if it is available yet.

It depends on the theme that you have installed in your MIUI-powered phone. For example "Geometry Black" that I have in my Mi5 is dark everywhere. In general, the default themes that xiaomi phone have are light-themed.
I don't know what is the similar theme for Poco and if this theme is compatible with it as I don't have it yet.

geometry black is available in themes and it tuns background o black for settings and all. The app drawer still stays white tough, which defeats its purpose. It more for MIUI & not optimised for "MIUI for POCO"
Just moved to Nova for a two reasons:
*no option to set grid sizes ( desktop and app drawer).
*Nova teslaUnread add on solves (at least temporary) lack of notification problem in notification bar.
*ability to change color/transparency of app drawer background.

By this do u mean the unread count badge on home page icons or does Nova give u notification in the status bar.
Even Poco gives unread badge just not the counts.

Yes, I meant badges and sadly is doesn't work properly for some apps. maybe I missed this option on poco launcher. But still grid adjustment is nesasary.
Yeah, it's great, but I would like to have 4 icons in a row with bigger icons, such as in iOS.
Also, some kind of live or scrollable wallpapers support would be nice.
Individual change of icons such as in Nova Launcher, too.

It's basically the same miui launcher with the added app drawer
its there a way to change the navigation bar color scheme, for some reason on dark apps the navigation bar below its all white its horrible
Something funny i noticed with Poco launcher.
Locking homescreen layout should mean no icon/widget can either be added to or removed from the homescreen.
But apparently, after you lock homescreen layout in settings, you can still add an app shortcut to the homescreen but you can't add a widget!
Just updated to latest Poco launcher,was the word on the header at the app drawer before?
No, it wasn't.
Did you update from PlayStore?
Post some impressions, please. Is it OK or is it buggy?

A way to enable adaptive icon shape for all icons?

I was wondering is there a way to make all icons in oval shape? At the moment system icons are in squares, and third party icons are circles? For example, I prefer all icons to be circles (especially those from Fairyland theme).
Yes, I know I can do this with Nova launcher, but with 3rd party launchers you lose some functionality (HiSearch, and most app shortcuts).
I've customised a theme with EMUI theme manager, but I don't think it supports EMUI 9 at it's full potential at the moment, because when I compile the theme and save it, after applying it, icons are mixed up; for example themes icon apply to music, music icon apply photos etc...
So I'm open to ideas! Any suggestions?
You can use this application to convert any icons pack to Huawei icon theme. Then you apply the generated theme as usually you do, it will only change the icons. Hope this helps.

OP solved this by making a custom theme with round icons for the stock apps.
The inconsistent icon shapes bother me a lot too. OP's theme - Fairy Circle - and the excellent XZ3 theme sort this out for now.
Hopefully Huawei fix this jarring business with their next device and we can install themes from that and be done with it.
