Launcher Pro 8.3 Glass Theme
Provided in the zip file are some starter icons with a blank glass template for you to make your own icons.
could you advise me on how to use this theme? I pulled the icons from the zip but what about the theme itself?

Great, was thinking you didn't know how to use custom icons in LP after reading your post.
I understand where your coming from, would have loved to try out your themes... thanx anyways.
Don't kep everything to yourself. Your themes are awesome. Please know that trolls like myself just love your work and really look forward to more from you.

Honestly, I doubt it was very difficult for you to do in the first place. So getting a thank you from a bunch of random people on the forums shouldn't be a big deal. Unless your doing it for the warm feeling inside lol.
oh welllllllllllll. it probably was buggy anyways.. lol ..

No it will not. You will have to uninstall your current version and install this one. Put licence key in again and your good to go.
Umm yea I'm sorry I don't know how to install these icons...I figured you might be able to move some system files around in Root Explorer but I'm not really getting anywhere...modding for dummies help would be helpful people!

1. DL and copy to sdcard root directory or a folder called (exp: My APKs)
2. Goto settings and select allow Unknown sources .
3. Open File Explorer and find the apk and select to open.
4. Also install this app (Home Switcher) that will allow you to switch between which launcher you want active.

Preciate the help I had no trouble installing the themed Launcher itself but how do you apply the themed app icons to your applications? I'm running DK28 ViperROM Trinity 2.o and I tried flashing the icon pack zip in CWM3 but "installation failed" any more suggestions?
The only themed icon I saw was the launcher app drawer icon

You do not flash the icon zip. There are icons only with a blank starter icon to roll your own icons. Copy the unzip folder to your sdcard folder (exp: LP Icons).
Press and hold the icon you want to change. Select change icons, goto the folder you created called LP icons and select the icon you want. You may also at this time change the label name of the icon pointer to the app.
looking good jstine!

Let's say you want to change the phone icon for your LPro. Press and hold and you will get a screen "Edit dock shortcut". Select "Change Icon" then "Custom Icon" now you are in the Gallery. Find the folder that you named before and then select the icon you want to replace the phone icon with. Select the blue phone icon. Now you are done with custom icons. BTW: any icon that you select should have a size of 84x84. I think the ones I put in the zip folder are folder are 128x128. Please resize to 84x84 before using those icons for the screen to look correct. Hope this helps
Edit: Just tried this myself and the icon don't show to the correct size. Will have to look into why?????????

Ight preciate it mane this was a big help...I also figured out that if you longpress on the homescreen to add an application shortcut you can modify the app icon and name of any application on the phone with any icons you have in the gallery...only gripe I have is that the icons only change on top of the launcher homecreens...still a pretty cool feature doe...thanks again mane.
P.S. I have the same icons and they look and work just fine with the size they came after I put it under the DCIM folder on the SD card.

NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS THE THEME PROGRAM
This is a tutorial and download (salvaged from before the server crashed) of the GOLauncher EX Theme Template
With it you can create beautiful themes, with unlimited icons, for each package.
Now, here goes nothing:
1. Download the zip of the template here, and extract it
2. Open the english pdf and follow the instructions in there
3. Grab the icons you want, either from another theme or from your own sources
4. Give theme a good name (like gtalk for google talk) and resize them to a 72*72 png in Paint.NET
5. Go to /assets in the trunk_1.0ok folder and open appfilter.xml (I recommend Notepad++ for this)
6. Copy this into the file:
Code:
<!-- APP NAME (for your use) -->
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.quinny898.theme.miui/com.quinny898.theme.miui}" drawable="the png without the .png extension" />
7. a. Replace APP NAME with your own name, for your use to remember it, for example "N.O.V.A. 2"
b. Download LauncherPro to your phone from the market, but don't set it as default home. Create a shortcut on GOLauncher's desktop and select 'activites' (with LauncherPro icon). Wait for it to load and then find your app. Tap the name and lots of package name with activites will appear.
c. Replace the first com.whatever... with the app name, such as com.opera.browser
d. Replace the second com.whatever... (after /) with the package AND activity name, so it ends up as something like com.opera.browser.BrowserActivity
e. Do this for each activity name, until you end up with a list, under one <!-- -->, like this:
Code:
<!-- Asphalt 6 -->
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP.GLGame}"
drawable="asphalt6" />
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP.installer.GameInstaller}"
drawable="asphalt6" />
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP.MyVideoView}"
drawable="asphalt6" />
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP.GLiveMain}"
drawable="asphalt6" />
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA6HP.IGPActivity}"
drawable="asphalt6" />
g. Replace all of the things inside the drawable ""s with the name of the image inside the /res/drawable-hdpi folder, but without the .png extension, so for example, if you had an icon name like asphalt6.png, it would be asphalt6
8. Go back to the trunk1.0_ok folder and right click in a blank space, whilst holding shift. Click Open command window here
9. Type makeall into the command prompt that appears and hit enter
10. Wait for it to finish
11. Take the _signed.apk fron the folder and put it on you phone's SD card
12. Install it using your favourite file manager
13. Apply it in GOLauncher EX
14. Hit the thanks button
Thanks for this tutorial,
I am using your other ECLIPSE Template, is way better and faster. Anyway, this is even more work than with Launcher Pro / ADW Launcher Themes.
I don't know how the biggest Icon Pack for Go Launcher is, but I searched some and some of them are only 700kb big and the biggest and most popular ones are 2MB big. So I would say they include around 100-200 Icons.
My Iconpack fro LauncherPro includes right now 1300 ICONS and I try to port it completely to Go Launcher. The good thing is that it won't be so big as on LauncherPro.
Started today and got 100 Icons, wow a lot of work. Will do some more tomorrow and maybe in a couple of days/weeks I can have all the Icons inside.
AND have not only the biggest LauncherPRO Icon Pack, but also the biggest Go Launcher Icon Theme
The/my iPhonious GoLauncher themes, have over 1400 icons, and 900+ of them theme from the drawer.
The theme also works with ADW, LP, CircleLauncher, DVR, and more.
if you guys look around, there are some serious resources that could help

Hi,
I'm getting a weird issue with the latest Go Launcher. When I apply my theme downloaded from play store (or even by sideloading it), the folders and the home button in the app drawer go missing. i.e. only folder labels show up, but not the folder icon. When I tap the folder label, they do open and show the themed icons. So, only the folder icons go missing.
Please see the attached screenshot to understand what I mean.
Could anyone please tell me what could be wrong in my theme build? Am I missing any PNG or some entry in any xml?
Hi last question then im nearly finished making my rom...
How do i get rid of LGHome and add go launcher??? and how do i change the launchers icons..
thanks again
Open your rom zip file, navigate to /system/app/
remove LGHome.apk, and add GoLauncher.apk
(I think that the launchers' permissions will be changed, but if not, change it's name to LGHome.apk)
or you can just keep LGhome and let users choose whatever launcher we want, dont you think?
think we should leave the stock lg launcher, you should be able to choose just add golauncher

u mean change only icons ? if thats the case , then u need a theme manager to change the theme. some themes change only icons, some change everything. but the icon set is inside a theme. themes support specific launchers. so its possible that ur favorite launcher doesnt support ur favorite theme ( for the icons ). the other way around is to use a root explorer and change every little icon manually inside apks.

the stock one is LGHome3.apk.
since u use an alternative launcher look for it in data/app. apps u install go there. in system/app are the system apps that have root access.

used ninjamorfh, exchanged the icons, finished my project and wooow: I soft brick my phone
the launcher disappeared and after reset it was stuck in the logo.
so after about 4-5 nervous hours of pushing apk thru adb, recovery, software reset, wiping it all , download rom, flash stock rom with kdz,
restore my 120 apps, restoring backup files, I was able to bring my 4x back to life as it was before.
so conclusion :

i guess there is a reason why there is no app that can change manually the app drawer icon, It could get messy.
I used ninjamorph app (root app), it should decompile/recompile the apk automatically.

if it is only for icon , u can just treat the apk as if it was a zip. just open it with the zip manager and force the icon to replace the one u want.
There are a few decent themes in Samsungs store. However, the icon packs are horrendous. Nova launcher hides them in some places but not others, like the share menus.
Does anyone know how to flash the material icons over any theme?
Edit: Also, how about the wallpaper for settings and dialers?

You would need apktool to compile the icons into the actual theme. However, if you want to just remove the icons and have them stock, you can try this:
-Edit /data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson/THEMENAME.json and remove the line for "appicon", then delete the corresponding folder from /data/app/THEMENAME.appicon-1. If you want to remove the icons from the lockscreen, you will need to do the same for the "lock" line/file.
