Ics folders .??

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.

You have to be on MIUI rom or just install MIUI Launcher(real launcher from Xiaomi).

I tried to put the launcher2.apk in /system/app but it didn't work
Please help.. sorry for my english im studying.
You don't need launcher 2 to do that. Just any customizable launcher such as launcherpro or ADW. Then you can recreate that style.

Read the actual description of the app in market, you'll see it says not all widgets etc are a part of the theme. But it does provide all links of where to get them. Follow the links.

Request: Stock Launcher theme ICS/Jelly Style

Hello everybody,
first of all i want to apologize for asking for it. But i definately can not do it myself.
I´m just looking for an .apk theme for stock Optimus UI which replaces the app drawer icon with the stock nexus style one,
cause i don´t like the default ones. That´s eveything i need, all the other desktop icons can be changed via Optimus UI launcher.
So if anyone has the same interest and likes to do something like this i would be more than happy.
Thank you in advance.
Cheers
Daniel
Nova launcher or apex launcher
There is an app in lg smart world by it you can download themes for the stock launcher , made by lg .
I don't remember the name maybe "theme box" or something like that

Are you rooted? If yes, just copy and replace original file via es file explorer or total commander to /system/app
If you're not rooted then you can't install it.

^This. No root required. Running smooth.

Yeah i know, but unless i am not rooted i can not use widget drawer to place widgets on homescreen. It will be possible when we get jelly update till end of march (i hope/want to believe). But i really favour stock launcher so i think about root and have a try with this custon biz theme.

Well, not entirely true, you can still use the Widget drawer, cept it's going to be the Gingerbread style one. But yes, in order to have a true stock ICS or JB experience I guess we have to wait till LG updates roll out.
If you don't wanna root. I sure don't. Not yet atleast.

In which way do they not work?
There was a theme patch in the CM10 thread
Every theme I've installed, when I tap on "apply" says "This theme was improperly..." and I can't apply it.
I've tried to apply system theme, then reboot, apply another theme and reboot again, but it doesn't work

There is a simple fix that I have tested myself. Change the DPI of your phone using LCD Changer Pro (set DPI from 160 to 140) EVERY theme will now work!!!!!

Or free version, it will say no device assets and press apply anyway.
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda premium
Well my theme works if you download buildprop editor and change the dpi to 120, apply it, set the theme, reboot again and just turn the dpi back to 160
I only need yo put it at 140 then revert after applying

One question - Do we have to use trebuchet launcher to be able to use these themes or they will work with nova?

I don't really know
But I think it depends on theme...If theme supports both launchers(trebuchet and nova) It should work with both....
But most of the themes on playstore support apex, nova, and Go laucher

Search CM10 themes in playstore
There are plenty..Even theme used in Darkbreed roms
Download and install whichever theme you like
Then Go in settings>themes
Or for any other launcher like nova just search Nova launcher themes
I installed a touchwiz theme. it seems to be working with nova launcher too! will try more later.
The name of the theme used in darkbreed is called crystal 2. But it has been further heavily modified by the rom maker. Really great rom. :thumbup:

Just search play store for CM 10 themes.
Once it is downloaded, go to settings, theme and select theme of your choice. Then reboot
But before that, download and flash this in recovery..
