I know some people were requesting for the I9000 Honeycomb theme(s) to be ported over to Captivate. For those of you who were doing so, try flashing this theme with CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=958788. I am currently running FireFly 2.2, and haven't had any issues. The developer however did recommend deleting bootanimation.zip as it would sometimes cause a loop. I did so, then replaced it with a custom bootanimation. The screenshots in the original thread show LauncherPro being used. I however prefer ADW launcher, and it works flawlessly with the theme/ROM. Obviously its not exactly like the real Honeycomb, but it looks and feels awesome. Flash at your own risk. Take a look below.
EDIT: screenshots didnt work. see attached below...
Two more screens...
do u think it would work with cognition too? theyre based off the same rom rt?
I also flashed it to FF2.2. No issues. Looks nice!

I honestly could not tell you...I dont know much about the differences. I just flashed to stock, flashed FF, then flashed the theme on top. Had my fingers crossed the whole time....
Hopefully someone else here can indulge.

Guess not. But I do remember seeing somewhere on these forums a Honeycomb theme based off of Rogers 2.2. If I find it I give you the link...

Yes you can as long as it is Cognition 3 you are talking about (any version of 3 so 3.1, 3.2, etc.). NANDROID before though in case it doesn't
What Calendar widget is that?
Good to hear its working. I will give this a shot. I was trying to cobble one together but its lacking polish since Im just replacing images and swapping XML files...lol.
I tried the other day but I think there had been too many theme flashes and something went wrong, so I had to go back to fresh sweet FF2.2

Just load to SD card, and set each icon as a 1x1 widget using Desktop Visualizer. Yes, I am using ADW but you can do this with practically any launcher. I have it set for 5 rows on my homescreen

Are you using a dock at all? What about accessing the app drawer?

Also what app drawer icon is that (little android guy)?

I have the ADW settings to be a 1 icon dock with no dock background (find this under dock/advanced in settings. Just a personal preference). The drawer icon is an icon in the ADW "Eyefold" theme available on the market. Hope this helps.

I dont get any force closes. What are using for DRM protection. Are you trying to play protected music? Or is it an app that removes DRM protection on protected music (like a Zune subscription)

Really like the Suave HD Icons that I was using on MIUI but now that I am using CM9 I am wondering how difficult this is.
I looked a the numerous theme tutorials and it seems to get really in depth and complicated. I don't want to theme everything... I just want the icons.
Here is the link to the SuaveHD thread. Maybe someone could be kind to either explain how it's done? If it's too complicated? Or maybe just make it.

Download a pack for your launcher and use it. Else, hold the icon on home screen and click on edit, manually select the icon.

If you are using apex launcher...
tap and hold the desired icon...
touch edit..
tap the icon and touch select picture.
now you can select and icon from gallery.
I'm using Teamhacksung's CM9 build 14 and I think it uses the trebuchet launcher? Sorry, I'm still new to CM9 since I came from MIUI.
I'll have to look into that launcher. Is there performance degredation from using different launchers? I don't quite understand that part yet... all I know is that I installed the MIHome launcher and it really wasn't that great since it was mix-matching a lot of stuff.

Just download apex or nova launcher. Whichever suits you. Download an icon pack for it and then in settings of the launcher, select the icon pack under theme menu.

Is it possible? I really like the stock Messaging app, but for ease of Emoji etc, I like to use Go SMS. Unfortunately it comes with a hideous stock icon, and trying to change it while keeping it in the dock is proving to be quite difficult.
Any ideas without running a third party launcher? I'm trying to keep the phone as light as possible.

Surprised this hasn't been answered yet. Anyway, it's fairly simple. You can only change your docked apps when you have the app drawer open. Simply open the app drawer first, then move the current app in the dock and drop it into the drawer. You can then move any other app from the drawer into its place. Hope that helps.

Sorry, but this doesn't really help me as I can't change the icon for Go SMS when it is in the dock. Using an icon switching app seems to only let me create a Go SMS shortcut with stock Messaging icon on a homescreen, not in the dock or app drawer, which is what I need

Does anyone know the directory/folder where the "app drawer" icon is located? I plan to modify/change the icon to match the rest of my icons and theme. I dont want to use a launcher I just would like to locate the file so that if possible, I can change it manually.

Oh, bro, if you can figure that out, you have to let me know! I've been searching up and down for a way to change that bastard. I haven't found it either. It's like LG buried it in the deepest, darkest file it could find just to mess with us...

Yeah, I know, it seems like they really didn't want that app drawer icon messed with. But now that I think about it , I may be completely wrong. It may not even be an icon at all but maybe something more like a widget.

As far as im concerned everything is "changable" on the phone, its just a matter of how far your willing to go to change it. One way or another I will get all my icons to match, including the app drawer icon, and i'll be sure to post how i did it here.

Have you tried this app? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jy.iconchanger.ad I think it may work for icons one by one, I think I've read about people using it for the app drawer icon. For applying icon packs system wide, the Xposed module Unicon is great for that. Especially the beta version, it has the ability to use icons from multiple packs using the custom icon assignment feature. Theming the app drawer icon is also a plan for the future, just currently not available.

Thanks for the info, I like the app. I just flashed a new ROM so I'll be making use of it here soon. And theming the app drawer icon would be a great addition to the xposed module. Right now to get the look I want (all icons being same shape and size) I have to switch between themes that use either a round appdrawer icon or a square one. And then have to have all round icons or all square icons otherwise the appdrawer icon sticks out like a sore thumb. But the app you referred helps to find matching icons, thank you. I'll check out the xposed module too, probably tomorrow.

I'm thinking now that the app drawer icon is actually part of the theme more so then an actual icon. Could be wrong but would explain why there is no actual icon anywhere.

I'd think the themes for the LG launcher work similar to Nova launcher themes. Skinning images in the LG launchers res folder. If you browse through the LG launcher apk you should see a res folder, with other folders inside. Somewhere there would be a app drawer icon. Usually to replace that, you have to use something like apk tool to decompile the launcher apk, change the launcher icon to whatever you want and recompile and install the apk, or go through the same method with a launcher theme. Decompiling it and so on. Which might be a little easier. I've never browsed through the LG launcher, but that's how it works on other launchers usually. The icon changer app would be a far easier approach if it actually works. But I'm not 100% sure it will since I haven't actually tried it.

That information is very much appreciated. That is exactly the info I've been looking for. I just came over to android from iOS so I'm still getting familiar with everything. I run Linux on my PC though so I'm picking it up quick. Anyways thanks again for the info.
Icons are not stored in the system. They are pulled from the apk files and then listed in the app drawer. This is all done via the XML and java files in the system.apk and then the application.apk. There isnt a way to just swap out a icon unless you use a modding app or you decompile the apk and rebuild with a new icon. If you want a perm way of change the icon, you can pull the apk from your phone and then open it with 7zip, and then just replace the icons in the /res.drawable-* folder. Other then that you need a modding app
The app drawer icon was the only icon I was having trouble figuring out how to customize. I really appreciate the information you provided already but do you happen to have information pertaining to the app drawer icon itself?
