Nova launcher.. "Nova settings -> look & feel -> icon style -> prefer legacy icons" option.
Nevermind "without any side app or launcher"... good luck with that!
On a Nokia AX1029 that had a downloaded theme called Gold, featuring a dragon with heavy icon frames, I just changed the launcher to ME launcher. Totally a lucky accident, but after phone turned off, frames came back with OS launcher, I changed the launcher back to ME and it worked! Dragon stayed, perfect result.

How would I go on about taking the Icon package from MIUI theme, "Glowbusters" to use on ADW Ex? So that all the images would automatically change the actual app icon in the app-drawer? As well as giving apps without a dedicated image to have the same background+icon style as everything else?
I believe this is it: http://www.miui-dev.com/forums/show...Busters-5.0-TEAM-KOMMINATED-FIXED-TO-KICK-ASS
I'm aware it's for MIUI but all the icons are included in a folder within the archive, I was hoping to use it on Froyo+ADW Ex
Load the images into your gallery,
All the icons you want to change should be on one of your homescreens.
hold the icon you want to change until the mini popup menu comes up.
select edit and then press on the stock icon.
go to gallery and you should be able to select new icon.
I'm about 3 sheets to the wind right now so I really hope that is understandable
Yeah it's understandable, but what I mean is for the icons to automatically apply to the apps in the appdrawer not the icons on my homescreen. Then having it already applied in the appdrawer, if I were to bring those icons to my homescreen the icon would remain as well.
It sounds theme related where I would have to customize an adw-ex theme package or something
Ah, I see... you'd have to get someone to make an ADW theme as far as I believe. I was only on MIUI for about a day but I could've sworn that the icons changed in the drawer on adw... Are you using MIUI? If you still have the captivate, there is a port of it in the cappy forums
Guys
Not sure, i googled a bit, but could not find it.
Is there a ADW launcher skin, that could make my device look like the atrix homescreen? (Attached)
it looks cool......
Just choose the custom dock background & set the 2 left shortcuts to phone & the two right to contacts with the middle set as an app drawer all withe the custom transparent icon.

Thanks man! Awesome!
I dloaded Launcher Pro, and modded my device....
Looks sick!
I run MIUI and am sick of the launcher (app drawer, etc.) I like GoLauncher with its widgets and such. There are a few things I want changed though, and I would like to know if it has been done.
First, I like how the icons in MIUI are really large, in GO, they are very small. Can they be changed in GO?
Secondly, I like how the text under the icons in MIUI do not have the black background. Is this possible in GO?

I didn't know they had one. I will take a look.
Launcher Pro is the only launcher I think that can remove the icon label backgrounds.
One of the reasons I love it. I do wish it had bigger icons and maybe a 4 icon dock.

I like GoLauncher better because of home swipe actions,the ease of changing icons on both homescreen n dock and overall smoothness...
This is why I use ADW EX.. you can customize everything to do with the icons.. Size, background of icon, text color, size, fully customize the dock, instantaneous drawer (I find go launcher drawer to always have SOME lag), tons of themes, same swipe gesture options and screen animations.. The only thing you lose is the widgets and there are other market Apps that take care of that.

Same here.. LPP and GO are great, but ADW customization go further (no dock is a sweet feature too)... but ADW is not as smooth as the two others, I mean that when you want to edit stuff (widget size, placing shortcut elsewhere, etc) it feels weird, not as responsive, I don't like it but it's the only negative point so I live fine with it.. pros and cons..
In go launcher i use desktop visualizer to get some real big icons, miui style. It gives me even the option to open shortucs to folder organizer.

I just downloaded Desktop Visualizer and I did not find the option in there for icon size. How are you doing it?
Long press the icon from dvisualizer that you just added to your home screen and choose resize.
Dvisualizer is a widget, you can resize it just like any other widget.

Hi, just updated my paid for adw ex and, shock/horror, the ugly google search bar (which i never use) was back on on my desktop.
oh, i remember why i got adw launcher, just drag it to to bin.
er... its not moving, its not moving.
oh, wait a minute, whats the symbol on the end of the serach bar.
well, well, its adw settings.
i will try to recover the previous version of adw unless someone has an easy answer
(just checked on android market reviews and it seems i am not alone)
Isn't there the search widget and a option to for the resistant search bar, based on portrait/landscape?
It is called "Actionbar" and can be disabled.
ADW Settings -> "Screen setting" (or something similar, using it in German where it is called " Bildschirm-Einstellungen") -> Actionbar Design
OK, thanks chris_82. I am back on previous version now. There was also an ugly blue outline when changing screens and a thick white line on my clear dock icons. Also it was "slaggy"
I'll be steering clear of this for now

You can change all of these settings in the settings screen. On my installation adw launcher ex works really well and the new version is on of the smoothest launcher I have ever tried.

So is there a way to change the ugly blue outline added to the screen transitions? I've tried themes and none seem to change this. My phone is not blue and these transition outlines clash horribly.

hi, adw launcher was updated and now is all fine again.
@godsponge: i didnt like those outlines either, go to adw settings>Screen>Show outlines and untick
I recently moved from a Nexus 5 to a Galaxy s6. Of course I wanted the pure android look so I installed the google now launcher and the material theme.
The problem I am having is the phone icon still shows the ugly green touchwiz icon as well as the touchwiz camera icon (don't know if that should change or not).
From the screenshots I see it looks like the phone dialer should change as well.
Any ideas?
The icons will not change with the Google Now Launcher. You will need a third party app to do that, or use a launcher like Nova.
The in-call UI will not be themed, but the dialer should before you actually place the call.
Let me know if you have more questions :good:
Install Nova Launcher and then install Moonshine iconpack.
