The EMUI 9.1 (9.1.0.300) is suppose to come with new round icons and wallpapers but it looks like they are missing from the update.
Anyone got them too?
Or is there any other way to make the icons all round instead?
Thanks.
I installed a 3rd party theme manager and got a ton of icons, currently using round shaded ones. The built in Themes app never worked properly in Canada.
9.1 makes the app icons square-ish, not round.

How to change icons in app drawer without any launcher i am using x10 MP and ROM CM7 2.1.7, also please give some links for transparent themes like CRYSTAL....
The only way to change the icons in the app drawer is to theme each individual app and change the relevant .png file. It's a bit tedious and really only works on system apps.
I'm not sure that's actually what you want to do since you mention not having any launcher. The launcher is the app that gives you the app drawer. If you haven't got one on your phone, the only way you can run any apps is by connecting is by using a PC interface.
I'm guess what you want to do is the change the appearance of the icons on the home screen of the stock SE launcher. That's the screen with the four selectable areas in each corner. If that's what you're after then you're out of luck. Only third-party launchers (like ADW, Go, Zeam, etc) offer the ability to theme the icons on the home screen.
Transparent status bar
yes i better move to MIUI launcher....im using CM7...i have heard many things about making status bar transparent....is there any simple way to patch this....
That depends what you mean by simple..lol
In CM7 there may be an option in the settings app to do that. I don't know if there is or not as I'm using a CM7 port.
Otherwise, you need to modify the statusbar_background.9.png file inside the SystemUI.apk. Change that to transparent, but make sure not to change the pixel thick border or you'll get all sorts of problems, and that will do it.
This also depends on your launcher as some just won't accept a transparent statusbar at all.
LOL
i liked the miui launcher....but now i notice there is no miui launcher for CM7....and for the transparent status bar....let it go....something new will come up im enough happy with the CM7 rom itself....i removed all built in themes...no use for the colours inside just the desktop itself is lovely with widgets and APW....thanks for everything bro
You can get a semi-transparent status bar in Flame.GDX ICS ROM. As for a launcher? Id recommend 360 Launcher.

You have to install theme manager.Search google Theme Manager t-mobile flash download zip,flash through CWM and install every APK theme file you want!
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?

Hi Mes3, this has been reported and we are requesting a fix in the next build.
Hi, I have just updated my phone to B330 and have installed google now as my launcher. I have a theme installed which shows the icons as i want them to but when i set google now as my default launcher it changes the icons to ones with coloured backgrounds. I have tried to go into themes and set the icons i would like to use but to no effect. Hopefully someone can help. On B180 i was using the spectrum pure theme which seemed to work but now does the same thing.
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.

Thank you.
I took a different approach and have managed to make it. Already Post dinner as new thread in themes, apps directory.

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.

Hi all,
I am running Nova Launcher on my Mate 10 Pro.
When I change themes with Emui theme changer, the wallpaper changes but the icons do not. In Emui, they do get replaced.
Anyone know of a way to replace the system icons so that Nova Launcher uses them?
i have the same issue with EMUI 9
if you are on EMUI 8 then you can go to look and feel in nova settings and select system icons
thanks. I actually think I mah have made a mistake, the theme
I selected just had a very limited icon set!
