Mod stock launcher - Android Themes

So I was wondering if it was possible to "theme"/mod the stock android launcher (Launcher2)? All I really want to do is change the color of thing. Or, just replace the Image.

Yes, it is possible...

Sorry for being a noob..I kinda knew it was possible.
Let me ask again:
How do I mod it? What do I have to change?

The title says 2.1 but the heading in the post says 1.5.. Hopefully you did a nandroid back up before flashing that, just in case.
I also have no idea what rom you are using.

Your welcome, if you run into problems look at other custom roms to know how they set up the various maps inside the zipfile. That might help...well at least it helped me creating my rom.

You didn't post any pictures? Anyway, to use different lockscreen other than the stock ones, you'd have to use a third party app or maybe be on a cm/aosp rom

[REQUEST] Moto X Launcher APK

Hello, guys! I was wondering if someone could send me the APK file of the Android Launcher used on Moto X and Moto G (2013 Versions!). I usually use Launcher2 but I would really like to have the transparent status bar. I know the two launchers are actually the same and that I could set the transparent bar with root permissions on Launcher2 but I would really like to have it Without root permissions. I noticed that several people have been asking about it in other forums but I never managed to find what I was actually searching.
Can someone realize my little desire? Thanks!

Thank You!! But do I need root permissions to install it? It seems I can't simply install the APK file.

If rooted you paste the files & set perms to the same as other apks. Reboot to install. Rename any previous file of the same name to .bak
I used Nova, more features and still transparent

Oh I thank you but unfortunatly I haven't my phone rooted. Is there maybe another way to make it run without root?
Thank You very much for your intense work for me, it's very kind from you!

I've been using Nova 'till now and I used to personalize it as if I was using differents devices (HTC, Sony, LG etc.) but after trying Launcher2 I got really interested in stock launchers! I however thank you for your interest

You can't alter system apps without root. And that's what the stock launcher is. If it won't just click and install, I doubt there is anything you can do.
Maybe I'm wrong and someone can correct me, but that's my understanding.

^ This is correct. Launcher2 is a system app that requires root to modify. If you're trying to install another Launcher2 on top of it, you'll get an error.

Editing an apk is not a small feat imho so it's a long shot that you will get an solution soon even if you got one.
You should stay away from editing apk.
Don't forget to take backup first...
