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

Hy, thanks for the hint with smart world. I'll have a try and log in. I have holo launcher hd on my phone, but not running cause i'm not rooted and can not use the widgets tab.

I replaced few icons from LG_Biz theme, root needed cause you have to replace system app.
12 icons replaced.

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.

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.

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.

I use Solid explorer. You have this there: Devices: Internal/External/System. It is with JB that no more that way to enter in external sd I think.

I got back to ADW. I think it is the best launcher out there. No lag at all! I will try Holo HD later, but I love ADW!!!
Try the default launcher of Android 4.2, just install as any other .apk

Stock weather widget
I have a problem about a widget. I love the stock weather widget, but it works only with the stock launcher. I'd use NOVA or Apex, but I can't add this widget.
Anybody solution?

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!!!!!

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

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..

If you are just using the Sense 3.6 launcher, no it is not possible. The installation and usage of icon packs is only through the use of custom launchers like Nova, Apex, or ADW.

Icon packs with default launcher
We've created a new (free) app which allows one to use custom icon packs for home screen icons with default launcher and no rooting.
Please check it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.momocode.shortcuts
I'm sorry you'll have to copy and paste that link; I'm new and it appears I'm not allowed to post formatted links yet.

Is there a way to do it in bulk? And for it to affect the app drawer as well?

Unfortunately to change the icons in the app drawer, you either need root for your app or a custom app drawer (custom launcher).
There is a way to add many icons to home screen at once, but it limits the possibilities for the look somewhat and doesn't allow one to hide the name label like we've done. We have some plans to add this as an alternative, though.
Hey guys ,is there any launcher like nova ,go ,tsf shell which i can install on my phone ? Because i can not install nova launcher .
I prefer Apex launcher but you need least Android 4.0.
and without root there's no other way to get 4.0 , i guess
Try KitKat launcher 4.4, it's better than the Google one.

For sure, the new kitkat launcher is smooth , light and more efficient than previous 4.3 or less versions.

Yeah, you are right. Go to settings-->> about phone-->>
There you find info about your phone. Also some five letters name of firmware, for example: "XXJVT", "DDJUT" etc.
Find the CF-Root for the specified firmware and flash using Odin. Now, you have rooted your device and install the ROM you want.
It's amazing how android is powerful, even dead we always can resurrect the system
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
I think that it is difficult to find a launcher for android versions below 4.0. For the best like nova or apex you have to upgrade to CM9+.
