I want to create a theme/launcher all in one for a rom. I don't know how to set my theme to preset or put my icons into the stock launcher. I tried extracting the apk and the zipping it and changing it to .apk. But I kept getting a parsing error. Anyone know how to set a theme as the pre-set when my rom is installed?
Anyone know how to help?

Is it possible for anyone to create a .zip file for installation of the modified Touchwiz transparent launcher. I have tried to follow the instructions have been unsuccessful. Any help is awesome. I am running clean DJ05 deodexed. Thanks.

Really? All you have to do is move the .apk from the sd card to your /system/app directory with any root capable file manager. Or adb push. Takes less time than it did for me to swype this.

Which Rom are you running and did you have the touchwiz.odex file also. I have been able to do everything else but this one

I'm pretty sure there was a .zip file in the thread about the vibrant dock. You can't change the dock for the fascinate launcher. Its a .xml file edit or something like that.
I would like a transparent dock aswell but the vibrant launcher is as close as were gonna most likely.
Would also be nice to have a themed twlauncher as I prefer it over other launchers at this point. :/

I did too but I would rather have the ability to uninstall apps from the launcher and set the home screen to what I want it to be. The Vibrant launcher doesnt allow those things...
Thanks everyone for the input. I will look for the vibrant launcher well.

Hello fellow xda members. I had a problem the other day. I installed sgs tools and tried downloading a different launcher. It loaded the launcher fine but I wasn't satisfied. I tried restoring it but it gives the error "folder not found." I was wondering if anybody knows how to reinstall the built in default tw launcher and if I can possibly restore the layout.

I'm sure you could find the apk with a search.
Are you running a custom rom?
No, I'm runnin default android 2.2 froyo. Rooted, but nand backup doesn't work either. A few months ago, I tried backing up with rom manager, but after rebooting, their still wasn't any backups availible to restore. When I boot into system recovery, it doesn't even open cyogenmod reovery.

CM revovery? Stock 2.2? I'm confused.
I tried. Google doesn't show any, only custom launchers and I don't want that.

Did you manually check the sgs tools folder for the backup of your stock launcher?
I've been using the gingerbread launcher from the market and I really like it. Just putting it out there to think about it.
Sorry I meant clockwork recovery mod. THAT didn't work or I wouldn't be asking for a way to reinstall default tw launcher. Thanks for all the current ideas

If you still need it, I attached it for you. Just drop it in the system/app folder. Good luck.
Never mind.someone else got it.
OMG THNX FOR ALL YOUR GUYZ (or girls if any) HELP!!! THIS IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

The one from the market is super easy. And if you accidentally delete it, it's there to reinstall
This is the one from my phone. Dont know if it is what you are looking for as i am currently running Continuum, but good luck.
I think you might need the .odex file as well since I recall seeing that you are running stock 2.2. Did you delete that file?
I'm not sure. How do I check?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
You can use Root explorer or a similar app and navigate to system/app. See if there are .odex files for the corresponding apk's. If the one for the launcher is missing than that would cause the issue. What happens when you try to run the launcher? does it just force close?
edit: I was able to find the apk and .odex file from a stock 2.2 build. Just drop it in hopefully this works. Just unzip and extract the files manually.
I can't find it. All there is is the .odex for the tw launcher wallpaper

Thanks in advance

Download the APK or pull it from your phone, change the file extension from .apk to .zip and extract, it should have files you're looking for.
I believe this is the latest one: http://www.multiupload.com/QZ2I2UZ2NB

Anyone know how to package miui icons for use with theme manager. I've done a couple of different options but nothing seems to catch. I've loaded the zip to the SD card, that didn't work. I've also changed the extension to mtz and that didn't work. Etc....anyone got any advice what or how to go about it. Thanks in advance

+1 I would like to know how to do this as well.
Yeah I found some real cool icons on deviant art but can't get the ron to recognize them
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
Yeah, I have a folder of Edius icons (over 500) that are properly named according to app, but I can't figure out how to put it into a mtz to use.
Swyped from my MIUI'D Fascinate.
The easiest way would be to find an icon pack for miui and just delete the icons out of it and paste yours in. Use 7-zip and you shouldn't even need to extract or re-zip anything. When you put it back in to theme manager just keep in mind that the name will be the same as whatever icon pack you used.
That's what I was thinking about doing
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
I packaged my own fonts to use with Miui with a custom .xml file. I just basially just replicated one from a font package I already had downloaded and that seemed to work. However I copied the setup from an icon package .xml file and that won't work at all. I'm not really sure what to do about that, and noone on here seems to be very helpful. Maybe I posted this in the wrong forum.
Hey guys, I am on cm7.1 . I wanna have ics folders on my phone wothout using go launcher ex. Is it possible? How? Tried to seaech on google and xda, with no joy. Hence posted.

I think i'ts not possible ;(
how about ADW Launcher EX? I'm not sure if this is what your looking for but it has ICS style folders.
Yes,use ADW launcher EX ,it's fast ,smooth and it has ICS folder .
Yeah I am currentlly using ADW laucher with an ICS theme, and that has ICS style folders, but you don't get the 'drag and drop onto another app to create folder' feature. Default theme for the launcher won't give you ICS style folders.
Also when u create a folder, u don't get to see the apps inside like ics. U just see a circle.with nothing in it.

Nova Launcher is exactly what you're looking for, search it in the market
Use the new version of adw ex.
It has what u need.
