[Q] Noob with an icon issue. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok I have used the search button so if this has already been covered please point me in the right direction.
Problem- Icons added to home screen show up so small you can hardly see them. Example if I put a calculator on my home screen and use launcher pro to change the icon It comes out like a thin line. I have checked to make sure the Icons I am using are .png and are of the correct size. What am I doing wrong?
HTC EVO
Not rooted
running Launcher pro plus
tring to use X2K2`s W7 Tile icons.
Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Sorry I am an IDIOT! found desk top visualizer.

Goto the applications screen and press the menu button, tap edit and you can switch out the 4 icons along the bottom.

I'm a dumb ass, I managed to move the contacts icon into the applications window but I don't know how to change the icon from here or add an icon. If I could add one I can then drag it to the menu bar at the bottom.

[Q] how to edit bottom bar

Hiho!
I hope this question isn't allready answered, but I unfortenately think it is. My searches all didn't serve the answer I'm looking for.
I'm just trying to change the appearence of the bottom bar of my HTC Desire. I'm using VillainROM 1.0 and I allready made it to change the statusbar with editing the framework-res.apk but I didn't find any PNGs to edit the bottom bar.
Is there any tutorial or something that tells me how to change the apperance of the bottom bar? I think I'd also have to edit the "touch area" for fitting to the new bottom bar buttons.
Please excuse my bad english and noobig questions.
greetings, oOzzy
Honestly, I don't think there is a way (through editing files). Sense will remain sense, and launcher2 will remain launcher 2.
Although you can try a new homescreen/launcher.
Your best bet will be checking out ADW Launcher, Launcher Pro or Zeam launcher. But with some googling, I'm sure you can find more.
I'm currently using Launcher Pro

Moto dock on Go launcher?

I just installed Go Launcher Ex. Is it possible to have the normal moto dock with Go Launcher?
The normal moto dock has the blue and red buttons for dialer and contacts. I'm not very fond of the Go Launcher dock which has transparent buttons...
Help please?

Im not sure about getting the Motoblur buttons but there are plenty of themes available for GoLauncherEX. Just check out the GoStore and get another theme.
You can also simply long press on the dock icon and chose replace/Custom Icon to change the icon from the transparent ones to one of your choice, or pick default icon to choose the Apps default icon.
The more themes you have, the more icons you can pick from.
hope that helps
Stick with GoLauncher, its got so many good things
Check this out.
Thanks for your reply pprakash.
It doesn't create the desired effect . There's no option for transparent icons on GoLauncher...
Is there any way to replace the GoLauncher dock with the original Motorola dock? (3simple buttons for call,app drawer & contacts)??
The second attachement is the Transparent icons. You can replace the DOCK background with the first attachement in the post and the individual icons with the Transparent one. You need to set two places for same action. For Ex. Left two positions should be dialer and right two positions to be Contacts.
@Prakash: Dude you're a genius! Thanks to you it worked perfectly!! Now I have the same old Motorola dock with GoLauncher installed. This is awesome!
One more question: Is it possible to remove the "Home" button/icon that appears at the bottom of the app drawer? It takes up an entire row of space which could have been utilized to show more app icons. As it is I can use the capacitive button to go back to the homescreen anyway.

@gamefrk ... I am not genius. Just sharing back what I learnt here .. Regarding the Home Button .. Not yet. It can't be disabled anyway as of now. Probably you can contact GO team for that ... they may release it in future I think. The workaround I use is Vertical scrolling. This makes Home button to be un-noticed
Even I use vertical scrolling, the home button doesnt go unnoticed for me...

[Q] Need some help with Huawei P8lite and Nova Launcher

Hello. I hope this is the right forum for this question.
My Xperia Z went bust after two years of faithful service and yesterday I took a risk and picked up the Huawei P8lite. The phone is absolutely gorgeous, but I am having some issues with Nova Launcher.
First off, the soft keys and notification bar aren't transparent. They are when I use the stock launcher (so the device is obviously capable of doing so), and they were on my Xperia Z using Nova Launcher. Non-transparent soft keys and notification bar makes the screen look smaller and cluttered, which utterly spoils the overall experience.
Is there a way around this? If I root the phone, can this be fixed? I have never rooted a device before so if this helps, where can I find the run-down on rooting?
Second, changing icons. When I try to change an icon on the homescreen (again, with Nova Launcher) only a handful of icons from the icon pack shows up on the list. There are clear gaps in the list where a bunch of icons should be.
Again, these were both non-issues on my Xperia Z.
Does anyone have any idea on how to fix these things? For the icons I realize I can use an app like Icon Changer, but with Nova Launcher I shouldn't have to. And as for the soft key and notification bar I realize I can hide them entirely, but I don't want to do that. I just want them to be transparent.
I greatly appreciate any help. I'm on Android 5.0, and I can post screenshots if needed.
Okay, so the phone got an update the other day and that fixed the problem with the icons.
However, the soft keys (and less importantly, the notification bar) still aren't transparent. Does anyone know what to do about this?
You know you live in the first world when this drives you insane
try different themes if that helps !!

In Settings go to the navigation control and it should be to the left on the switch. Move it to the right. Not only did that make the Nav bar clear, but also allows me to hide it.
Hope it helps.
