Very off topic, but may i ask if your app drawer is the Ubuntu button/logo and if so, how did you make the normal app drawer button invisible.
Cause i have a LP custom dock which has a custom app drawer logo already on it but it clashes with the normal app drawer logo

Hello,
is there a simple way to replace all the Samsung standard icons with the Vanilla (stock) Android icons?
I really don't like many of them (e.g the ugly messaging icon).
Thanks in advance
Hmm...maybe with launcherpro you can change icons for apps you put on your homescreen. You can't do that with app drawer.
The only way seems to install a aosp-clean rom (when we'll get cyanogen I think we'll be ok) OR to install the aosp version of the apps you're interested in...guess they won't all work, but some should. Music will definitely work (I used it in some rom, and the samsung icon is really horrible), also calendar and messages I think should work...of course that would change also the application itself, not just the icon...
Download ADW Launcher, and then search for "aosp adw theme" in market and install.
Folder organizer might be useful in this case.
Although haven't tried!

I do it but that way i still don't have the AOSP drawer like the second picture that you can see here
there's a setting somewhere in ADW to activate that kind of drawer?

No, that's the 3D App Drawer from Launcher Pro in that picture.

ok thanks, I misunderstand what somebody says in other forums.
thanks again.
I am currently running Darky Rom 9.5 with Crysis Revolution Theme. I love the the style of it and the themed launcher. The only thing I would like to change is the app drawer. It is currently horizontal scrolling and I would like to change it to vertical 3d app drawer. Unfortunately, there is no launcher specific setting to modify.
Does anyone know of a way to change this. I am guessing it would require to modify the apk or something similar.
what launcher is it ??
have you opened the app drawer and pressed the menu button and see if the option is there ?
it is for some launchers
It looks to be a tweaked version of TWLauncher. I looked, but there is no specific settings or or preferences for the launcher. I was hoping there was because that would have been the easy solution. Thje only launcher that I have found to have this option is just called launcher. I am guessing that it is a ported version of the stock Froyo or Gingerbread launcher.
you can't change this in the app, but instead you can use the gingi launcher. It won;t have 5 dock bar and transparency but still... I recommend Go Launcher.
After mostly lurking XDA for some time, I'm starting to get more involved here. I just broke down and purchased ADW EX, to setup a custom theme. I'm looking to use a combination of icons from Aw0ken ADW Theme, Elegant, and Simple Text. Naturally I'd like to use ADW EX, as I just purchased it, like it's options, and is compatible with the icon packs I like.
What I need to figure out is how exactly I can specifically edit different icons in the app drawer it's self. I find it relatively simple to change them on the home screen, but see no obvious way to change them in the drawer. My OCD in me is having a hard time here. Too many apps that I use regularly, either do not have a icon in the pack(s) at all, or one that does not look aesthetically appealing imo.
TL;DR - I'm open to any options that could get me to a result in which I could mix and match icons from different packs. Specifically, I want them to mix and match in the app drawer. Can't seem to get to any edit mode there, after trying long presses and multi-presses of icons.
Thanks in advance, let me know if I need to elaborate.
The app drawer that lists all of your applications, or the dock on the bottom of the home screen? Pretty sure u can't edit in the app drawer itself...

The app drawer itself. I know nova launcher lets you, my problem is that I don't see a way to make one of the icon packs work for it.

I use nova prime, and have for a while, and there is no way to change an icon in the app drawer itself!
Just updated to 4.4.2, wiped, and then installed google now launcher but I'm having a weird issue. A couple of LG apps like email and weather have had their icons replaced with a bugdroid icon. Mind you, this is only when I'm using Google now launcher. When I'm using the stock one, the icons are normal. Anyone know what's up with that?

Me too - I'm on the stock rooted UK 4.4 ROM. I installed Nova Launcher & the aforementioned icons are generic. The same happens with Apex Launcher. I tried deleting the icon cache in Nova Launcher under Lab Settings but nothing happened. If I try to edit the shortcuts on the desktop the relevant app icons are blank.
The icons look fine when using the stock launcher.
On holo launcher it lets me edit the icons of items in the dock and on the home page.
Rather than choosing a different image for an item, I can also choose "default icon".
This fixes the icons, but only on the home page and in the dock, not in the app drawer.

Not with Nova Launcher
Anyone have a theory as to why this is happening on third-party launchers?
I've emailed the Nova Launcher dev & will see if he replies
The dev wasn't able to help. Is there a way to extract the stock app icons from the ROM as image files and then we could edit the shortcuts?

In Holo launcher I can simply select the icons on the home page and change the images.
When changing I get the option of using a custom image, or use default.
When I select default, the icon works again.
However this fix only works on the home screen, not in the app drawer.
I know this thread is a little old but I just upgraded to KK and was wondering if anyone figured out how to fix this?

I just found a trick that worked for me, set nova's icon size to 85% in nova settings and the stock icons come back to life
Hi K10 Community ?
I want to talk about "the best" launcher for our device
So if you have some idea post your HomeScreen
And let's talk about it
Google Pixel Launcher…
This is my HomeScreen
Nova Launcher
MinoS ROM 6.0.1 V1. NOVA LAUNCHER
This is my homescreen
And my app drawer
Yes, all used Launchers…
Seems like almost People are using Some Launchers, that I not used…
But after Pixel Launcher, I like Very Very Much Next Launcher, or Next Launcher 3D…

What is name of launcher, and name of widget app, is it stock one?
My homescreen. Pretty basic for now. As you can probably tell, I really like the pixel's frosted look.
Search bar is a custom KWGT widget. Pretty basic. I'd like to expand on it to have a drop down window with music controls and calendar, but I've been busy.
Phone and Messaging icons are from Whicons icon pack
Other icons are Retrorika icon pack
Launcher is Nova Launcher Prime
Rounded corners using Cornerfly....
Wallpaper changes with every unlock using Wallpaper Changer
What else...
Pie controls are from LMT Launcher, themed to match pixel style dock as best I could. Didn't spend too much time doing so, so it still looks clunky.
Hidden navbar by using adb shell to run
Code:
settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
Modified LGSystemUI.apk to hide clock in status bar.
Other status bar icons hidden using adb shell
Code:
settings put secure icon_blacklist bluetooth,alarm_clock,rotate,nfc
Umm... I think that's it. A ton of gestures with both Nova Launcher and LMT Launcher to open everything I use daily, as well as run tasker tasks, pull down notification screen, and lock screen.
Cool screeshots!! Here are mines.
Pic 1 -> Main Screen
Pic 2 -> Secondary Screen (possible widgets)
Pic 3 -> App Drawer
Pic 4 -> LockScreen
As I recently re-installed the system, specifically Android 6, I'm already testing it so I didn't focused on fully customize it for me yet. I just have all I need day by day on there.
JoeMoDo, I recommend to you to use the build.prop line (qemu.hw.mainkeys=1/0) to hide the navbar. Why? Using it insted of the shell command you use, you won't see remainder navbar on some apps, like stock camera, as other custom cams (Snap Camera), some games, etc.

I'm aware of the build.prop line, but prefer the immersive option. The only time I see the nav keys is when using the keyboard, and... I don't think any other time. Does not appear in camera. I prefer this option so the navbar can be swiped into view, and as a fallback in case the LMT service is killed (which hasn't happened, but I've experienced that on past devices).
I just reffered to that, sorry the misunderstanding.
You will solve the keyboard desappearing issue by doing that. And also I attached you 2 screenshots about what I was talking about before.
