Coming from the Galaxy Nexus, I could change app icons on Nova launcher to custom icons I made myself which I placed in the Pictures folder.
Now however, I cant do the same. Nothing changes after selecting the icon I want. Downloaded icon themes work though...
Is this a bug in Nova itself?
Thanks.

I'm using Nova prime as well. Are you able to change your icons to pictures in your gallery app?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
Yes, click on icon, hold, EDIT and change icon. The little window just look different than before.

I click edit, select Gallery, choose the custom icon I want, crop, select done, and nothing changes.
A few others are having the same problem back on the Nova launcher Xda page too...

Tried restarting Nova?
Menu > Nova Settings > Advanced > Restart Nova Launcher
You are clicking the correct mark on the left top, to left of Edit Shortcut?
I am running custom rom - [V0.3] Doc's Barebone aosp hybrid (WIP)
same problem
Since Nova updated to 2.1 I am encountering the same trouble!
I used to change stock icons with icons in my gallery but now it just can't seem to work.
I follow the same step as described above. I'm on a i9505 Galaxy S4 with Omega V3. I had the same issue on stock firmware.
Have you found any solution ?
Great news! The latest beta update fixes this problem.

Still having this issue I'n on a GNex and on latest version
Same problem here.. can't figure it out
Same problem here...
Same problem here but I've installed the latest beta and the problem has been fixed with that update.
Install the latest beta (2.1.1) from here. This will fix the issue with custom icons not sticking

I just installed this rom I'm loving it now but I accedently replaced the app drawer in adw launcher and can't find a way to put it back. Can someone help?

I've done that by accident like 3 times now with this new version of ADW. The app drawer icon has always been locked before.
1. Long Press on Screen
2. Select Custom short cut, then Select Pick Your Activity
3. Select Launcher Actions
4. Select "Open/close App Drawer"
5. Select OK
6. Drag the created short cut to the desired short cut location
Hope that helps.

I'm on stock ROM with tablet mode enabled (changed DPI in build.prop) and this is my home screen. I really like the app launcher being the discrete little icon in the top corner but I have no idea how to change settings to get that there on another ROM. I've loaded several different ROMs but always end up restoring my backup just for that launcher!
Can anybody tell me what that is and how to configure it on other ROMs?
That's the stock launcher in tablet mode.

I knew the answer would be simple. Thank you! So if I want that on another ROM I can just extract Launcher2.apk from this one and install elsewhere? Or do I need other files too?

Just put the other rom into tablet mode via dpi and it'll do it automatically. Or use paranoid android and select everything to be tablet without changing DPI.

I had tried that on Paranoid but was still left with the phone launcher. I'm going to play around a bit tonight though. I've got 3 or 4 ROMs downloaded and I'll see which one I can make work. Thanks again.
After reboot, this Google search bar just permanently placed itself and I lost the theme option completely. Any ideas?

What Rom and mods are you using? That looks like what a Samsung UI search looks like.
Did you recently install a Mod?
Stock rom. I just noticed I lost the ability to theme individual icons. Instead of the option to name and change icon, it just picks it up and I have option to delete or show info. Maybe my launcher is gone? I had x posed with g2 settings installed but I uninstalled them. Would an option to select theme just disappear?

A theme option should be here right?

Yes, there should be an option at the top. Something tells me that a theme you tried to install conflicted with the stock rom that might have not been compatible.
If youve added any mods or themes I would freeze or remove them in titanium backup and restart and see if that fixes the issue.
Most of my theme icons came back except the apps icon after few reboots. Does titanium detect and let me remove themes even if my option to theme is gone?

Yes because after you flash the zips in recovery they become apk's

Ok hmm, can you see them in titanium Bu? They should be apk's, if so go on and try uninstalling them. This should fix your problem if its a theme conflicting with your stock image.
I had this issue as well.
I did factory reset and all was better.
It seems that I somehow I installed my home launcher.

only way to do a factory reset is to install a recovery right?

I rooted my phone with the shabbypenguin build but don't have the ability to hold the back button to split screens. Is there an APK I can download or zip to install for this?
Thanks!
I'm assuming you're running cyanogen? If so no. It's a touchwiz only feature as the framework is completely different

I don't believe it's cyanogen, basically just rooted with the sprint hotspot hack and custom recovery. I currently use the touchwiz launcher afaik, is the framework different?
If you just Rooted the stock firmware the setting can be found by going to settings -> my device -> display-> check the multi window check box. And you should be able to run split screen
