i know some roms will be including this such as CM7 but are there any apps i can download that will do this for me?
No, it needs to be edited by the rom dev
Someone will include it eventually

hi all i am new and was wondering if i can install the fresh rom and replace the sense launcher with the nexus one launcher and lock screen while keeping the htc widgets
but i have fresh rom and some sort of nexus like launcher and a white notification bar with the htc widgets
thx for help i have one last question wat do i need to edit the sense icons like browser and sms to the stock android icons
Those are not sense icons. You are using an application called LauncherPro. The nexus launcher was removed due to instability and replaced by LauncherPro. Unfortunately the current version does not allow for customization of the bar at the bottom like Helix does, but the dev said that he has a plan to do so and it will be out in the next release, which is expected in a week or 2. There are alternatives to the sense widgets and the performance increase you get from not using sense is so great I will never go back. Check out the pure widgets. If you have the newest version of Fresh that was released this morning, LauncherPro is already linked to the market and you should see any updates, but if you are running any other version, you will need to download the update from the market to establish the link.
no i am not using laucherpro
and wat i meant by edit sms broswer icons i meant from the actual apps not the icons on the bottom bar but the actuak icon of the app
I believe application icons are packaged as part of the APK so you would have to edit those manually. I don't have much experience with that, but you might have issues because I am pretty sure the signing process for an APK includes a hash, so modifying the internals would probably invalidate the signature therefore cause android to puke, but you could give it a try.
ive installed the cyanogen rc3, which came with the adw launcher. everything was working fine until, i went to my home screen, and noticed the browser and the phone icon next to the app menu icon were missing. does anyone know why they left, or how to get them back. thanks in advance
you could just try adding them again.
drag the icon over the spaces.
no that doesnt work, i think they were there because of the theme i guess, now there just not there. they used to be like the stock froyo has it, iwuth the icons next to the launcher. how can i get those back.
Settings>ADWLauncher>UI Settings make sure LAB and RAB are checked
wow thank you, your the best. thanks for your help

will this work with the froyo roms available for the hero?
Thanks in advance
I've just tried the launcher with my FroydVillain 1.5 Hero, but it buged out the launcher at the bottom.
I installed the ADW launcher in the zip and tried with that, but for some reason I had my phone icon and browser icon overlaying the sense phone and the adw settings button. I have uninstalled, but will be giving it another go at some point. You never know, it could well work for you!

Same! What do you think is causing that , the best i could do to fix it was turn the size down of the buttons in the menu
Not sure what causes it. Going to he doing some looking thus weekend if I manage to get some free time.

Update - didn't have any free time! Don't know what i was thinking that I would!
Anyways, I have downloaded the ADW theme template in eclipse to see what controls what with the themes - this will likely take me an age... I apparently do not have any time!
Anyone else have any updates to this? Really want to get this working as it would kick ass with widget locker and fancy widget!
First, I replaced the launcher. Apex Launcher is based on the stock ICS Launcher and looks great, but getting it to work with the weather and clock widgets seems to be crappy. These widgets know how to change layout based on size, and it seems like Apex is failing to notify them of the size change. Anyone know how to get those widgets to use a layout other than the long, thin stripe when using Apex?
Second, I'm wondering if I should replace the camera / gallery apps. Is there a significant advantage to the standard ICS apps? I'm hoping there's some reason Samsung gave us the old Gallery app, but anyone know what it is? Is the stock ICS gallery available to install?
I think if u just wait for a while. Some one will release a "Custom" Rom with re-design. Even though it will be stock with a layer on top of it, it will be all u need.

I'm not really interested in a custom ROM. Trying to stick with the stock roms as much as I can. That doesn't mean I won't install some better apps.
use Quickpic for gallery; significantly better than stock gallery, regardless of OS version!
As for weather widget, here's something to try:
Go to Apex Settings, Advanced settings, then uncheck "resize any widget"
see if the switch to conventional ICS resizing will change the Accuweather widget behaviour...
No guarantee but give it a go!

Yep should have added "watch this thread" to follow for ICS note version when done as ICS only out this week and no one will have it themed yet.
Personally I had a S2 and tried most themes and allways went back to stock plus a ICS look launcher, follow the S2 themes and you will see all themes don't get things right 100% grey txt on black background and then there was CM 9 etc with custom apps themed and you loose some of the original functionality.
Or follow checkrom.com for a ICS vers coming shortly???
I've started utilizing Google Now quite a bit lately. And now I would really like to get back to using the Google Now launcher. However, It's still missing 2 key features in stock form. I'm looking to see if anyone has a solid work around for them, that doesn't hinder performance.
1) Change icon theme
2) Change icon size
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Icon changer on the playstore
Thanks, but it looks like it only changes/resizes the icon on the desktop and not the app drawer. Am I doing something wrong?
You can just drag icons out of app drawer first . you can't have it already there
