hey all,
apologies for the newbie question, but down in the themes sub section theres some really awesome icons/home/lock screens.
My question is how do you apply custom icons and make such drastic changes to the home/lock screens?
Thanks!

Go to Google play and get themer or a launcher like go launcher
Or if you are rooted just flash a theme you like
Thanks, I am rooted and running a custom kernel. I will look into those launchers and with a bit of luck get it all looking swanky!
Thanks again!
Or you are rooted instead the xposed framework and then an app of the play store named unicon, it will make you able to change the icons of all your app with the icon packs available in the store in all the system

Try the desktop visualizer app with stock launcher. I don't know of anyway to keep the quick settings with a custom launcher

I just installed the stock launcher available here on XDA and it has the quick settings and also the circle widget can be used with any rom// I'm at work so cant give you a link but its on here

Apex all the way. Smooth and has free gestures! Swipe up for apps swipe down for notifications (;

Not sure what that means, assuming we all have it with base phone, how do you access it if you change launcher?

It may be me misunderstanding. I'm thinking of using the stock launcher with a different rom,.You download the launcher just like any other app then click on ot to install it. Its on here in either the Razr M forum or the Android apps forum. I can't remember its been a while since i downloaded it.
I tried using apex and it was pretty laggy. Nova is a lot better so far but one out of maybe every 30 times I exit a app to go to the homescreen the motoblur stock launcher appears instead of nova until I go to a new screen. Kinda Annoying. Any idea how to fix?
Can I change the color of the status bar icons like the battery, signal strength and time? without root?

Well yeah nova IMO is a little smoother but apex has free gestures. And no idea about ur launcher problem never heard of that before sorry. And ugh the only way I know of to do it is metamorph which requires root. You can try super status bar. I Know it allows custom layout of items in the bar with a change of color per user preference but not sure on the icons. Try it out

Hey all I'm new to the Nexus phones, but not new to android.
Previously I would put my own icons into roms that I liked (ie custom icons in CM10). I got the nexus because I wanted vanilla android, but I also want to be able to use my own icons.
Is there a way to do this while staying off of a rom?
Sorry for the noobness...
Thanks in advance!
This does not go in android development & to answer your question, use a launcher like nova to customize icons.

Hello guys!
I don't have 10 posts yet and because I don't want to spam I just ask this question here in the general section.
I'm on Paranoid Android 3 and the Rom is known for alot customization options but where can I find the launcher settings? I couldn't find any way to edit the row number or space between icons etc.
With expanded Desktop everything looks kinda mixed up (in my opinion) and not that well designed.
I would appreciate it if you could answer my questions or show me how I can solve the problem myself.
I will upload a screenshot of my homescreen too and I hope you can image what I'm trying to say
Cheers

Hey there, i've recently gotten myself an I9505 and managed to install CyanogenMod 10.1 which uses the Trebuchet 1.0 launcher. As i can't post in dev forum yet i will just post it here, but i've been looking to get the drawer transparancy to around 50% for a while now. As i remember on my I9300 there was an option in the drawer options from which you could simply set the transparancy yourself, but this seem to have been removed in the version i'm currently using.. Is there anyway to make this work? All i could find so far were some random codes to make it completely transparant but i'd only want it for about 50-60ish %.
Thanks for reading.

If anyone knows , is there a way to make flashable themes for LG G2?
I mean themes that change the appearance of the whole device (e.g. make it look like ΑΟSP etc)
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
(Maybe give me some guides to read or anything)

If your using xda you can search up lg g2 themes and look at post and you can find links that people posted with apk. Themes in it.

Goodmorning!
I don't want themes for the "home launcher" or anything like this.... I am interested in making a theme that changes even the inside part of apps! As I said for example: make settings have an AOSP look in their menu.....

You can have it if you rooted your device. Then you can choose and change themes like in aosp.
