Removing the dock icons - Android Themes

Curious to know how to remove the icons in the dock. I am using LauncherPro plus. I know I can replace them but I like to remove certain icons leaving the place blank. Is it possible?

Long press the icon > Change shortcut > Blank

[Request] Remove Text From HomeScreen Icons

I am wondering if it is possible for the text below icons on the homescreen can be removed? I dont think they are necessary and some of the longer names get cut off which annoys my OCD.

Lol..........
I would love a mod for this as well. Like you, I also hate seeing "Android App..." on my screen as well. My OCD also goes a step further; It kills me that "Handcent Sms" isn't properly labeled, "Handcent SMS".

Cheers for that. You are correct in the fact it doesnt allow clear text fields though.
can you just put a space in the text field?
Yes, very nice!

Woohoo! That works!
Well there is still a little grey circle underneath but not too noticeable (for now)
edit - The Messages shortcut wont let me have a space or any other description . it keeps putting th e"messages" description in

If you add Handcent by going adding widget then choosing "android widget" It adds the icon with text underneath as "Handcent Sms"

Sword Art Online theme Gingerbread and up

Hello guys..
I just made a good looking theme of Sword Art Online.
This theme is compatible with Gingerbread and up.
The tools you need to make this are:
SS launcher the original
SAO Widget
They're both can be get from Play Store. :fingers-crossed:
ATTENTION
This is not a custom launcher to give you SAO appearance. This a theme for SS Launcher to give you a feature of SAO appearance.
Why SS Launcher?
To make this theme works on every OS from Gingerbread and up, SS launcher is the closest launcher to make it possible.
If you're ready, here are the steps
It is a quite long step, but it is not difficult...
- First, install both of SS launcher and SAO widget
- Then download the attachment I've prepared for you guys. The file contains my SAO theme package and the wallpaper.
- Now open the SS launcher, press settings button from your phone, and delete all the desktop page (just press the trash icon), except one page called Home.
- delete all widget on the home screen.
- Next, extract the "SAO - Qijos" and put the "SAO by Qijos.zip" in a folder.
- In the SS launcher home, press settings, and then press 'theme', then choose 'load theme'.
- Choose the "SAO by Qijos.zip". If it appears a notification to clear template and other stuffs, click Yes.
- Now press the settings button, and then press "New Page" to create several more pages. It will come like this
1. Make a page named "2" as cover page, click OK.
2. Make a page named "3" as cover page, click OK.
3. Make a page named "ap" as application drawer, check the 'hide' click OK.
4. Make a page named "4" as cover page, click OK.
5. Make a page named "5" as cover page, click OK.
- Now you have 6 pages in total. Then go to home page, hold it at the center to make the menu pop up, then click Load a template
- choose the first template for that home page.
- then go to "2" page, hold again the center and choose the second template.
- go to "3" page, choose the third template.
- go to "4" page, choose the fourth template.
- go to "5" page, choose the fifth template.
Now you will end with 5 pages. Not yet to make it perfect..
for now,
- press settings button of your phone --> theme --> animations --> set speed to "0", Type = Rush, Effect = 5, then apply change.
- go back once, select the Pinboard Visibility, and uncheck App Drawer and App group. Go back to home page.
- press settings --> preferences --> set Orientation to portrait, check the Full Screen, check Keep Last Page, and check the Disable Swiping.
- Now the final step is, go to home page, hold the center and choose new widget.
- Choose the SAO self Hp Bar, adjust your settings, put to the top of your page.
- make another new widget, select SAO Teammate's Hp Bar.
now hold the SAO self HP bar, and select PIN
and also the SAO Teammate's Hp Bar, select PIN
Enjoy the elegant theme of SAO.. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
P.N.
If some of the menu doesn't work, it means the app is missing because between you and I might have different applications.
If that happen just click it and choose your target app...
Cheers...... :highfive:
Nice!

Big Thumbs up! :good: Love this theme. ssLauncher is a very powerful launcher, and with this theme (which is already purely amazing), you have barely scratched the full potential that I see. Amazing Job.
By the way, some of the features that you use are only in the pro version. For example, no scroll and pinning a widget. Instead, I just made the widget on each screen. It is a memory hog, but whatever, its worth it!

First of all.. Thank u very much..
Yes.. Because to make it perfect,, it needs the Pro version of SS launcher.. And I only made the theme version without lack of features for the Pro version. But if needed, I will try to make another similar one for the Free SS launcher version... :beer:

That's come from the SAO widget.. It also happened to me sometimes..
If you use several Task Killers, set SAO widget as an exceptional from being killed, otherwise when you kill the task, the SAO widget may not work properly...
Moreover I believe the SAO widget still got some bug that made it doesn't work in perfect condition, so when the SAO widget developers update it with bug fix (I hope there will be), try it so the widget could work properly..

Thanks for the comment...
Actually it is possible to make it that way... But I think it is not really necessary for users that want this theme that way, because they might accidentally turn off their phone from the launcher... XD
So, I just made the Logout tab into an application that turn off the screen.. But you're free to make it turn your phone off if you wish so...

I think there are apps that can do that, but you can also use custom build.prop.. but I never tried myself about making the build.prop...

How to swap icons

How do I go about using icons from multiple icon packs? I know it's easy enough to do using a file explorer. Any help is appreciated, thank you.
Anyone?

You might get more responses if you explain what you are trying to accomplish with those icons....? Are you writing an application and trying to include alternative sets of resources?

Don`t think there is a icon per app option individualy atm. Only for all apps. You might take a look in Apps and Themes or Google for a solution.
Long press the icon you want to change then pick edit

Help customize my Lockscreen

Hey Guys,
can anyone help me to get rid of the clock on the lockscreen? I don't want a big ass clock there!!! just a regular clock on the statusbar would be good enough. I just wanna have the Lockscreen to my wallaper.
For any help/advice/tips on how to achieve this I would be very grateful. I hope I don't have to decomplie systemui or anything.... maybe thru the new themes function? I saw they can change the font color and so on... maybe setting it to 100% transparency?
with help of a xposed module called Costum Text I was able to get rid of the text at the bottom saying something like swipe to unlock! U know my s6 is set to german and in german the swipe to unlock text is like 2 full sentences!!! Who needs that? like WTF? as if someone after using his phone for 5 minutes hasn't already figured out how to unlock his phone!!! am i the only one who thinks that about the text @ the bottom?

Haha, luckily for you. I created a small app using tasker to disable the wallpaper and clock and enable it if like. but you need root.
Just unzip the file and install the apk within.
EDIT: Please explain more on how to use custom text to disable " swipe screen to unlock "?

So u just install costum text and choose the app u want to change the text for in this case it's systemui. There u will be presented with bubbles where u can put in the original text that u want to change. Fox example u put in Swipe screen to unlock it has to be 1:1 like Swipe not swipe. And then u just put a blank space in the new text field if u want it to disappear, otherwise u can also put anything u want. Everything to take effect u click on the three dots in the right top corner and select Relaunch App and that's it! I also got rid of plug in text.....

Wow so glad I opened this thread! So the only thing that's left is the Phone Icon but i think that can be solved by setting the transparency to 100% of that Icon which should be in systemui or the systemui theme apk... I will have a look at this in few days I need access to a windows machine and I hope samsung uses .png's and not this qmg shiz.... the shortcut will be still intact but at least not visible which is still good enough for me.

Hahaha, very good idea. I hope you succeed because i use themes on my phone. And previously lollipop v5.0.2 I was able to take out the qmg from the theme\lock-1\base.apk and convert to png, make it transparent and put back the png into the apk without decompiling. That work, camera and ecall was transparent. Now if i try it with the new themes on lollipop 5.1.1 the apk fails toe work and the default theme is loaded.
So yes, if you can change the systemui for lock screen then it would be superb..:good:
But i am glad to help.
