You need to install advanced launcher. This has an option to remove names from icons on the desktop.

How do I change the icons for the folders. I like a few of the roms, but some of the folders look like shortcuts.
I am looking for the same type of setting information. either a cab or registry settings to restore original folder icons.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It is available through SK shortcut editor ... I can manage whole Programs menu, hide/show icons, delete shortcuts and change icons
Hey.
Launcherpro has the default grey icons. Well I want to know how I can use stock icons of phone, messaging, gmail, etc in the dock and not the grey icons?
Adwlauncher lets you do that, when you drag the icon and put it in the dock, but for Launcherpro it does not let you.....
Someone know how it is done?
Thanks.
Press and hold down on the icon you want to change. A box will come up and you can change the icon from there.
How do I put the green messaging icon in the launcherpro dock?

HTH
So, I've got a desktop full of images that I use as icons through the use of Desktop Visualizer. My whole screen (apart from dock) is filled with these images and I kind of wanted to get rid of the dock and replace it with one of these icons.
I found a solution to making the dock disappear through the use of ADW Launcher which allows you to hide the dock. It's not ideal since I would've preferred to use Nova Launcher (I'm on CM9 and I love Nova Launcher) but it has no option to hide/disable the dock (in fact, ADW Launcher is the only launcher that I've found with this option).
Anyway, now that the dock is gone, I can use it for widgets (which is basically how Desktop Visualizer works) however Desktop Visualizer does not allow you map "App Drawer" as an action. So basically all this effort has been for nothing unless I can find a way to map the icon to App Drawer.
Another thing I considered was a launcher/dock that allowed you to use custom sized icons for actions (most launchers only allow you select a certain sized icon to replace the default) but I couldn't find anything.
I've tried to search both XDA and Google but couldn't find anything useful.
TL;DR - Need Desktop Visualizer alternative or a way to map one of the widgets to act as app drawer icon.
Thanks in advance.
I need help with this too. Any ideas?
The only way I managed to do this in the past was to use a normal icon and the widget, and overlap them. (In ADW settings there is the option to allow overlapping.)
First insert the app drawer icon (Press hold > launcher actions > Open/Close app Drawer)
Insert your Desktop Visualizer widget, select the icon image, and set the action to none. Then press and hold on it, and using the re-size arrows drag it under the app drawer icon.
Finally press and hold on the app drawer icon, and change the icon to a transparent (empty) image.
You have to insert the app drawer icon first, as that makes it on top.
Its a pretty crude way of doing it, but I don't think there is another way, although I would happily be corrected if there is!
Or you could possibly just put the icon on your wallpaper then use a transparent icon.
In that way, you could have many possibilities in theming your desktop.
i want to use belle icon pack with my default launcher, but it didin't work.
is it possible to use them by getting it's icon pics from it's directory and moving it to the phone's icon folder?
Look into an app called "Unicon" or an app that themes your icons with launchers that don't support themes. I know there's a plethora of them, I just can't name them off the top of my head
Is there any mod or xposed module to change the font color? I know I can just install another launcher, but I wanna keep the features I'd lose by using another launcher.
do you want to change the font color just for the launcher or the whole system?
Claude96 did it in his theme
