Decompile trebuchet(apktool or apkmultitool) and replace the image in its respective drawables folder...then recompile it...that's the best and only way I know of as of now...I don't think Ninjamorph and apps like that have lollipop support.

[Q] AOSP icons?

I absolutely hate the Galaxy S Icons. is there ANY way to get the icons?
I'm using Perception Build 7.
EDIT: I should add, I know I can use ADW Launcher but I hate the update, and I hate what the creator of the AOSP theme did to the theme.. I just want the icons so I can use Launcher pro. I prefer the 3D app drawer.
Find a stock Nexus One ROM (like FRG83), pull the AOSP icons out of the system apks. Unzip the ROM package you're using and drop the AOSP icons in the system apks. Overwrite the system apks on your phone with the updated ones. Don't think there's really a quick way to do it.

yeah that sounds like a long process. But I'M WILLING TO DO IT, IF IT GETS RID OF THE GALAXY S ICONS!
My ROM has them out of the box if you're unwilling to change them all manually.

where does one find the AOSP icons in the system apks?
It's usually in drawable-hdpi.
What I done was downloaded the Morph- "Nero Blue AOSP" or "Vanilla Android" from the Vibrant themes/apps section... just use it for replacing app icons only, apply each one seperate, don't run it as a batch or it will install the included framework-res which will probley screw up some stuff..it worked great for me, replaced all icons to AOSP icons..

It's not hard to do it yourself. ... just unzipped the battery from the theme and copy it into the framework -res. Apk of the theme you want it for in the drawable -hdpi folder
What theme do you want to add it to?

there tend to be to drawable-hdpi folders in our themes that use 5 lock mod...icons *should* go in drawable-hdpi-4
i wanted to add it to SC2.9.1. going to try the instructions that were given
so basically when you want to add something you can just copy/paste it into the proper area of the theme and it should work?

yes and no....different phones use different names for images...you would have to open up the folder and compare (even amongst the sgs variants with status bar icons data/signal)
for system apks theres no need to sign anything...for market/data apps you would have to sign the apk for the changes to take
and then theres xml.....but thats another story

[Q] Modding TW app drawer (question)

yes, you have to decompile the apk and change values in some resource files. I did it before (raising the values to 6x7) for my Rom and many other members across different devices/forums
There is definitely no exact tutorial how to do it. But if you search you'll find all the necessary entries to change. Of course you need the knowledge about de/compiling the apk.

The easiest method is to download the XPosed framework by @rovo89. Then install the launcher 4x5 module.
Use Google to find xposed download link.

Anybody know which xml need edit to having close app animation.

The Sense 6 Toolbox has that function. You might ask the dev if you don't want to just install it.

Yeah people refer to both Google's launcher and the AOSP launcher as stock, so didn't know what you were talking about exactly. Assuming you mean Google then, only way to do it is to do what the other guy said.

I do not understand exactly. The widget is imbedded in the launcher .apk?

Basically. Google doesn't want to make it easy to un-Google their own launcher,.
Anyone have any info on how the xposed mod achieves the same result? (how to do this manually without xposed)
All I know so far is to decompile the app (using apktool or apk multitool etc), look through the smali files for something that looks promising (using Notepad++ or similar), find a thread that can point you towards the proper smali edits to make, recompile the apk then push it to device.
I think there could be something in /system/priv-app/Velvet/Velvet.apk/smali/com/android/Launcher3/launcher.smali but I'm not sure what I'm looking for yet..

I am interested as well. If it is only changing a file using Notepad++, I would try it.
What I did was goto sys/priv-app and remove velvet. Install nova prime then reinstall google app as a user app. Remove google launcher too. This will remove that awful search bar in the recent apps menu. Also removed that flicker when you swipe away apps in that menu. I also tested this method from a pure stock state. Removed google launcher , install nova. Then cut velvet from sys/priv-app to the SD card somewhere. Reboot. Wipe cache. Once reboot I moved velvet folder back to priv-app. Reboot, and worked the same.

i disable google app and it disappear.
