im sorry does anybody know how to change the taskbar icons? if so, can u plz help me thxs!
It depends on what you referring to as your taskbar
If you mean the lower quick keys then it would depend on what launcher you are using. Launcher pro gives you the option to use Icon packs to customize the launcher keys.
If you mean all the icons then bettercut allows you to change icons/names and several other options on your screen.

MetaMorph allows you to apply "themes", some of the themes available in these forums are designed to just change the look of the top-bar. Look around and you will probably find something you like.
On a side note, you have to root your phone to use MetaMorph.

Meta morph is what you need. Check out the theme forum and all the icons you could ever want are there inside the different themes you download.

Could you elaborate, that was a little difficult to understand. You want a way to place all you apps on your homescreen so you can scroll through them like on the iPhone (you said springboard, so..). If so there are launchers with 5 screens if you want more space for icons.

what i mean is like you have a bar on your phone and all your apps are there to scroll through instead of haveing to go to different pages like the sweeterhome theme has them.
i cant find the background for "all programs" in both list view and grid... does anyone know where they are located? preferable grid
and also the background for the all programs header.. i cant seem to find that either!
thanks!
edit*
let me add the background for the smaller people widget i cant find that either lol
maybe no one knows and thats why these arnt changed in other themes? lol
No, I've searched it myself and can't find an answer.
oh thanks for trying!
i wanted to change the background of the programs list also, never found the corresponding image file. please let us know if you find it.
Not sure if i understood this correctly but background for grid view in Launcher ? have a look at pattern_carbon_fiber_dark.png in drawable. Don't use rosie anymore, insteaded i swapped Launcher.apk with advanceLauncher.apk found in the dream section.

this seems to be the right file for the android stock launcher, since we are talking about rosie/sense launcher this doesn't help... thanks for the hint though.

this might be all_programs_header_title.9.png. at least the name suggests it
afaik you can't just alter these *.9.png files, but you'd need to look that up if it doesn't work.

thanks everyone! maybe il put together a list of where everything is...
and well im not sure but for anyone else who doesnt bother editing .9.png, i find that if the file covers a whole box (like a header) instead of covering part of a box(like bottom rosie buttons) then you can easily change colour by:
(using photoshop)
- create new layer on top of image
- paint it what ever colour
- right click the layer and bring down the transparency so you can see the detail
... this has never given me problems
i use bettercut for my desktop icons & i know there has got to be a way to bypass the 48x48pixel rule if you have root. maybe go into the system file & change some script or something? i would like my icons to be likee 60x60. does anyone have some ideas?
come on guys, i know its possible.
search in the market for "bigger icons widget"

i don't mind, the iphone has icons that are that size and it works fine.
You can do this, but it would require you to compile from source. I am not experienced enough to walk you through this. I suggest asking cyanogen or enomther.
why would i have to compile from source? theres no xml to edit to just expand the boundaries?
I've searched the 'net, I've looked at every crappy icon pack in the market, and I absolutely cannot find an icon pack that I am satisfied with.
Basically what I'm looking for are solid (non-transparent) versions of the LauncherPro icons, or icons that are identical (one solid color with no transparency or shadowing) so that I can edit them to my liking.
I've got decent photoshopping skills, but I've tried goofing around with the LauncherPro icons to no avail, I can't get them looking quite right.
Recommendations would be MUCH appreciated!
I assume you mean the application icons, in the applications list? Are you able to provide a screenshot of one you tried to edit (before or after)?

Sorry, I lost track and didn't subscribe. I'm just talking about the stock Launcher Pro Dock icons, sort of.

See the ones at the bottom? Like that, basically.
I See What You Mean.
Someone should release a vector version of those icons. :/
Wrong post. I'm dumb.
I know what you mean. I always find great icons, but they don't look right in the dock. They're made too small and look bad.
Here you go: http://www.iconfinder.com/browse
There are currently 760 full icon sets in there as I type this, all free, some for even commercial use, which allow you to download in .png or .ico format. You can even search for individual replacements for icons as well.
Happy hunting!

I know it's a noob question but i can't find any answers.
I installed CyanogenMod 7 but i can't change theme, what I mean is , I apply theme using theme chooser but the dockbar on the bottom doesn't change ;(.Can anyone help me , please
Reboot
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App.
i did reboot
maybe i should record it via camera and u'll know what i did wrong?
You said dockbar. Ofcourse it won't change.
You need to manually change the dock and the icons.
The dockbar won't change. The icons of the regularly used items, if present in Dockbar, may change. Further you will have to edit each icon individually with an icon from the custom sets.
i saw some videos that when people applied theme it changed everything?
So how can i make my phone look like this? any instructions?

Like what we said above. You need to manually replace the dock.
See my attachment below and download the dock image.
What launcher are you using?
As for the icons, you have to get the icon pack and use desktop visualiser.
The font used is neuropol x free. Get the .ttf file.
You can apply it using a font changer, download it from the market.

The theme only replaces certain things. Like the statusbar and other applications in the phone. It can't replace the docks for you because its part of the launcher.
Preferences - Themes - Dock background - custom
