how do you change the icon size ? The stock icons are quite huge.
Keep pushing on a home screen and you will see along with widgets, themes and wallpaper a fourth option grid size. You can change the grid size from 4x4 to 4x5 or 5x5.
that is only the grid but not the icon, i already on 5x5. The stock icons are still big. From my previous oneplus one, I installed the Texdroider DPI from app store, it allows me to change the density from stock to 380.
It makes the screen more space plus icons is smaller also.

The grid size does affect the icon size, but only slightly. You cannot increase the grid beyond 5x5 with the stock launcher. You can install a different launcher, like Nova, and it will give you additional options where you can not only change the grid size and icon size, but can also change the icons themselves. I use Nova and love it!

I want to change the bookmark homescreen icons. I tried better cut and desktop visualizer. Both change the icon, but they're about half the size of a stock app icon.
So is there any way to change an icon, and have it match the size of regular apps?
Hey guys, I have a general question about home screen icons.
I want be able to add large icons (application shortcuts to be exact) to my desktop. I'm on ADW launcher, and know where the option is to change the icon size under the New Icons menu. However, changing the size here affects all my desktop icons. I just want a few larger, not all of them.
I've tried Multicon which does allow icon resizing, but resizing the icons makes them blurred and a little pixelated. I've also tried desktop visualizer.
So my question is: is there any way to resize a home screen icon without affecting the size of all the home screen icons?

I'm pretty sure Desktop Visualizer should be able to do this. I know with widgets you can do this and I'm sure with icons because I've changed the size of my icon. Oh and you have to create the icon at least bigger than 72x72 in order for it not to be pixelated or blurry. Other than that I'm not sure. sorry.
I got it. There is an option to download add-ons for Desktop Visualizer. It's called DVRsizeconfigtool. Thanks man.

I've been using MIUI for a while now - main reason being the icons are spaced out with correct size. With 5 rows and 4 columns their sizes look like iphone. But when i use the same 5x4 with other lauchers the icons and the labels are too small for me to read..Not sure why?
I'd love to use APEX or nova if i can get the same layout as miui - they're more flexible for icon change and app drawer etc..
Any ideas or tips?
Is there a way to change the homescreen layout to a 5x4 (or 6x4 if you include taskbar icons)? I think things look way too spaced out on this phone otherwise. I am coming from a Sensation with CyanogenMod and that phone could handle a 5x4/6x4 icon arrangement fairly easily.
Did you see/try this mod??
Okay so as you can see I have a dock and then my homescreen columns are 12x12
How do I lower the gap between the vertical icons? My margin height is set to none, I've tried setting it to small and still the same
Any idea? Screen shot attached
I've also tried making the icons bigger and trying without a dock and there's still a large gap between icons
I use a 7 column x 10 rows, and the gap between rows is somewhat like yours, I think there is no way to modify it, I tried with the normalize icon switch, but made no diference, I tried changing dpi in developer section, same thing
