Icon Question on V20 - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Hi,
Has anyone figured out how to change icons on the v20? I am aware that you can do icon extract and edit each icon, but is there a way to apply icons to the v20? I got stuck with bad icons from one of the black themes, and the system icons (in the recents and 2nd screen ) look terrible. Hope someone can provide me with the magical answer! Thank you

I want to know as well.

Many icon packs on the Play Store are compatible with LG Home. Check out their descriptions. I installed Crispy, Sunrise and Corny, they all work.

Anybody got this working?
Perhaps I assumed too much, it works fine on my V10, LG may have disabled icon packs on the V20 :-/
Sorry guys.

V10 is running LG Home, V20 is on LG Home+. Haven't seen any standalone iconpacks for LG Home+, but there are full themes that alter the icons. Look in LG store and Play Store.

Long press an icon and you can press the small purple paint brush that pops up and then get back to the icons you had before installing the theme.

As for applying icon packs directly I haven't found one that works with home+ yet. I use an app called theme x to apply icons to home+ from my favorite icon packs.

Just download Nova or Apex launcher. Then download a nice white icon pack. It takes 2 minutes. After you download the icon pack just open it an click on apply icons. Long press the home screen and select your options like making the launcher your new home screen by default.
I wanted to stick with one of the stock themes but I absolutely HATE all those colors in my icons....I like a nice clean look. Also, I love the gestures like douple tapping the screen to launch Google Now. I use that a million times a day.

You guys can just use the app called awesome icons and do them quite quickly. I does only theme the icons on your homescreen though. No app drawer support but it's quicker than manually adding them via long press

Is there an app to put power control widget in notification pulldown?

That would be sweet. Pretty much the only feature of my long gone jailbroken I*phone (sbsettings) that I miss was activating that screen with a swipe without exiting the focused application. It must be possible in android. Any info?
Quicksettings?
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
There is an app in the market called "Quick Settings" which can be placed in the Ongoing notification dropdown that is customizable to include everything on the power control widget and more.
I am a fan of "power strip", a great paid app.
Quick Settings is really nice. Thanks y'all.
FYI, I've also used NOTIFi by Sisedi Media. It's skinnable and has a polished look that's a little different from the normal android UI.
Try QuickDesk Beta. It's a single extra homescreen that you access by double tapping the home button. Can put any widgets or shortcuts that you can put on your home screen. That way, all you have to do is double tap your home button, use the power strip, then hit back to get out of QuickDesk Beta and you'll be back in your original app.
The MIUI ROM has this as a fixed element at the bottom of the drop down.

The amount of times i've wished I didn't have to return to Home Screen to toggle GPS / WIFI etc - this is the absolute perfect solution. If it had customisable entries where we could launch a task switcher - WIN WIN!
+1 hopefully.
Perhaps this thread should be moved to Andoid General for greater visibility?
Steve.
theres an app thats called "in app toggle wifi" or something where you just have to hold the search softkey for a couple of seconds. even better in that it is hidden.
A good alternative is quickdesk by ruqqq, I've set it to bring up its "screen" on home double tap.
quickdesk is awesome. Not only can use power control but any app that you want without leaving any application. love it
Just noticed that the galaxy tab has this too.

Quickdesk or My Settings is best alternative for time being

why should i have used photoshop?
you can do it by yourself...
first of all do a nandroid backup... just for security
install adw.launcher and launcherpro.
Select adw.launcher as home default (you can use home switcher to set it)
go to http://circle.glx.nl/ , chose the things as you want and at the Status bar notification page select "Personalize notification status bar (for HTC Desire roms only)"
select "Statusbar (text color will not be changed)" and on background put the second option putting 000000 (black) as color and chosing the transparency as your wish... I suggest to not put full transparency, cause if you open a white app (like the market) you will not see the notification... put AT LEAST 75% transparency.
example below:
choose bootanimation and use the CM6.1.0-RC framework-res.apk on the list (or load yours)
download file and flash it.
change default home with home switcher and set it to launcherpro
for make sure that all is ok, reboot your device...
i'll wait forward for your feedback
p.s.: please note this trick will work only with live wallpapers... in my screenshot i'm using Ionic Live Wallpaper...

Hi,
I'm on DF 6.0j now and I have tried the exact methods mentioned above from UOT but could not get it to work neither on LP nor ADW. I've tried both DF6j and CM 6.1.0 RC2 framework. Appreciate your advice.

More columns and rows for apps.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, or if it's been asked before [if it has I haven't found it!], but I was wondering if there was a way I could add either more columns or more rows to my applications screen? Is there an app that can do this for me?
Thanks in advance.

Try http://www.appbrain.com/app/launcherpro/com.fede.launcher
I installed it and the program doesn't actually come up in my Applications, am I doing something wrong? I got it from the Market.
Install home switcher too then. Run that program and then choose to run launcherpro. Its a different home. Meaning you will have to configure everything on your home screen from new on. But just try it . Your old home will be still there and with the home switcher you can choose wha tyou want to run. Oh and to configure it press in the home menu button and then preferences and play with it a little.
Launcherpro will not appear in the applications list. Use the Home button and hold it until you get a pop-up menu where you can select between sence and lanucherpro.

Thanks for the swift reply - before I actually read them I was fiddling about and figured out what I need to have done, thank you both. However I was looking for something with a more stock look per-se, with the option to actually being able to add more columns and rows into the Application Drawer, not the live Home screen.
Not sure if I'm making any sense? Sorry, I'm fairly new at all this!

Yes you can have 5 columns in the app drawer with this , and what stock look are you referring to?

What I'm trying to achieve is to have more icons down on the dock [in that applications view and the live home screen], and to add another column so there's not 4 but 5...
Thanks for the fast reply!
Hehe that I understood and you can do it with launcher pro 5 columns in app drawer and it can have even an 3D effect .
I mean the stock look , you mean the touchwiz look or vanilla look?
Which ever came with the phone - don't know the name sorry!
Is there any possibility to organize apps into folders in the menu and not only on the homescrees? Having 300+ apps can really be a pain in the ass when searching for a particular one, not to mention it would be great to have apps organized by type, e.g., games, system, social.
Dunno what adw launcher does , but there are apps on the market who can help you with organizing. I never did cuz it never made any sense to me. Too much work and I wont use it anyway. Boss was very proud of his organization of the apps and it took him always longer to find the app he needed in the folders....

With ThemeX you want to select which icon pack you want to use upon entering the app, then you select which icons you want to save to your gallery. On the LG home, long press an icon until the edit flag presents itself. Tap the flag, choose gallery and locate the folder where you saved the icons. Resize 1x1 and expand the cropping box to fit the entire icon.
This icon pack works with LG Home too: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ddevicers.springiconpack
Is there any LG Home compatible UX 5.0 icon pack available?
the lg themes changes only the icons?no color change for e.g settings etc?
Check out my new Icon Pack in the description... Also if there's some icon not themed it will be updated quickly.

I want to make icon pack for lg home, i can make icons, but i don't know how to make app. If there is anyone who know how to do it (and want to do and get credits for that) please pm me

No, this screws up apps with their own notification system (like WhatsApp) or requires and extremely ugly shadow....
The contacts app, the text on tab which is active is white, which is great. However, on the other tabs it looks like the font color is black, which makes it look like a blank tab. This can be found on all apps with tabs like in the Phone app. Please fix this as it is very important.
Otherwise it looks great!
It's great but with some bugs..if u fix that's best black theme ever!!
Great job, thanks! Now all the system and apps have the same Google font as we can see in Photos, Google Assistant, Messages... It´s great!
Only a disclamer: the nav bar buttons are a little big. And the notification icon in the notification shad could be in colour instead of black to help to
distinguish between others.
But, dude, congratulations!

Actually, totally normal thing so no worries about it.
Seems like Swift made this moot?
Nice talent op! Really cool stuff and appreciate the hard work! Wish I could have the stock Navtigation bar without the pixel stuff though
Love it.. Great job. I did find this. Anyway you can fix it?
Can you make an apk just for the black nav bar?
