Hey all,
Recently saw the thread about peoples home screens and saw some really nice ones.
I have a question though about launcher pro and I can't find any tutorials or solutions for it online.
In short when using launcher pro it gives you a default of 5 shortcuts on the dock for each screen (maximum of 7 screens I think)
I've seen some setups where people have replaced the shortcut image with a word (ie messages, phone, internet)
I want to do this but everytime I try to change the image for a word it shrinks it down to a set size to fit in with the 4 other shortcuts on the dock, I'd like to do it so the word takes up the space of two shortcuts.
Basically I want it to look like the dock at the bottom of this one:
img40.imageshack.us/img40/3710/snap20100911025522.png
(sorry couldn't make it a link and post)
Or at least similar, does anyone know how to do this? I'm using Launcher pro, would I need Launcher pro plus?
Thanks!

You don't need launcherpro plus but what you do need is that exact launch bar or you need to make one yourself. The way that look was achieved is that there are no actual visible icons on that bar, instead they made a .png of a bar with the text where they wanted the icons to be and then used transparent icons to actually place the shortcuts. I believe SonnySekhon has a bunch of docks like that in his theme thread and you can pick and choose one. If you can't find a transparent icon, I'll post one later but I'm getting ready to leave in a few minutes so I can't do it now.

Here is a little something special from me, i think it will help you in re-creating that home screen, its an invisible icon. Just run your mouse over it to see exactly where the pic is. Its hard to see cause its invisible . Plus a drawer icon incase you want it.
I really like it, nice look.

Open the MTZ file with winrar, extract the lockscreen via winrar again and just change the image over making sure that the name is the same. if you are looking to edit the images use photoshop or you will loose any transparency on the images please note you may need to compress the file .. if you are not sure how this is done follow these steps http://forums.miuiandroid.com/showthread.php?8202-MIUI-Theme-How-To-1.7.8
Thread now updated ( 03/08/11 )with Round icons
Request will be taken and actioned ASAP
Thank you for the requests i will post the updates on Saturday
Very nice, I like the look of round lockscreen icons although imo I think they'd look better without the text labels beneath them. The megaupload link is down.
Plus, a little confused by the browser icon. It looks more suited as icon for compass!
Also, maybe a cosmetic bug. Quite often it shows a flat red line (no signal or is it low signal) while flat red line I had a 5 min phone call perfectly fine.

thank you for pointing out about the browser icon i will change that ASAP also megaupload link should now be working fine.
Also i will edit the file on friday evening and i will clear the writing underneath icons.
PS do you prefer the lockscreen with a round background or would you prefer no background (Transparent)
please see a few new updated lockscreens these are uploaded but i have not yet changed previews in the theme folder i will do this ASAP... Thank you all for your patience
The shortcut icons do look better with a round background. I've had the lockscreen before with transparent background and it just doesnt look right, as if the icons are out of place.

Hi
Another thing I've noticed is when I apply the theme, the lockscreen icons are different to the same app icons when screen unlocked.
Could you please rectify
i take it you mean the app within the ring when you drag this down.... this was because i had just transfered the same ring to all roms again can be changed it isnt a big job its just a matter of a little photoshop ill sort it soon
Ok thanks, appreciate all the effort.
Its little corrections that will make it perfecto

**Welcome to the Fox Den!**
After seeing a lot of information about the S Note and the extras on the forums,
I figured it would be best to put it all in one location.
I did this for the Note 7 for a while as well, so here we go.
The S Note version included in this download is not the latest version but it is the last version that includes the Action Memo components.
The widget and extension have been tested and work seamlessly on my own device. I cannot guarantee that they will work on yours. I only found and hosted these to help not to support.
If you want support, call Sammy...
And as always, I cannot be held liable for the damage or malfunction of your device using these files,
you proceed at your own risk and remove my liability by continuing to the downloads portion of this post!

Extra S Note Apps to Try
Reddit's Action Memo Shortcut

Idea Sketch 1.5.11
Photo Note 4.2.05

*Some of these may only work with older versions that you can find on the web here*
I only use the Action Memo
**Rename to .apk from .zip after downloading to install if the apk downloads as a .zip**

The widget gives you access to Action Memo on the Home screen like before...
No phone yet but doesn't hurt to be prepared.
I have installed all of the apks and no action memo option for me on the Note FE with the Note 8 app ports.
The widget doesn't work either. I'll keep trying.
Thank you for compiling this for everyone!

Instead of "categories" i have "folders", and no search top right.
I have the build numbers that are in this thread and the snote is not updated.
EDIT: so I have the same widget you have, with the 5 icons up top. I dont have any notes so it says "no notes" which is assume should be correct in my instance.
I'm new to Sammy and the note 8 is my first ever device from Sammy, so im learning about things. Appreciate your patience.

I have the Action Memo icon. Try uninstalling everything. Install snote, then the widget, then the extensions. Open Snote and expand the menu. See if that works for you
Does anyone else have this problem it only shows on a black wallpaper and can be hidden by placing a black object over it. Its almost like the wallpapers not fully black but ive tried multiple black images and a factory reset and its always there im sure its a fault just wanted to point it out and see if anyone else sees it on there device.
I've seen it as well... But not just on this phone it has been on multiple Samsung devices that I have owned as I typically run a solid black background.
yeah this one sucks .. only solution is by using live wallpaper or set samsung theme wallpaper.

Yes, I already posted this query. ( Repost).Bottom line, it occurs on home screen only at top or screen. and is due to the resolution of the image used. Try a proper black wallpaper designed for the note 8 home screen and all will be good . Using black wallpaper from note 3 or 4 won't work .

Anyways like i said i tried multiple black images even made my own in CS5 resolution was 1440 x 2960 IIRC only thing i havent tried yet is an indexed color but i will ive had lods of sammy amoled phones and this is the first time ive seen this happen.

Yes had this one all my sammy phones
The 'FIX' i use is to download any app that will let you set an image and apply it as a Live Wallpaper.
for example
download this one and set your custom wallpaper with it and apply the live wallpaper.
This way you can use any true black wallpaper you like rather than sticking to samsung theme stores wallpapers
it should have gone now

Hey guys.
Just a quick question. I saw the S10+ at the store today and saw that it had big icons, which I found to really like.
However, my icons on my Note 8 remain small and I would really want to get those big icons.
Am I missing something? Or is there a way to port the S10s launcher to the Note 8?
Thanks

I'm fairly certain it's a Samsung design choice. I think the difference is intentional from their end. What you can do, however, is install a third party launcher, such as Nova Launcher. With that you can change the size of the icons and the grid layout. You can even apply third party icon packs, which I like to do every so often to make things look a little different and "fresh".
Personally, I am not a fan of the massive icons in the SGS10's UI. I think that the Note 8's icons are the perfect size.
Their is a simple way for big icons

I have a solution for u buddy
Just go to home settings change homescreen grid to 4x5 and appdrawer grid too
U will get so big icons and just keep 4 icons in dock
And to justify the look increase the display size fron settings u will enjoy the one handed look of one ui
