How to put big icons on today screen

When I say big I meant to say 16x16 or 32x32 whatever is the average size I keep seeing on all those nice themes and WM5 based PDA phones...
Is there some kind of plug in or how I do it...?
I am sorry I'm a noob - but anyone willing to help me? Thank You!!!!!!!
Tnx

Try reading the iPhone threads and see how they're implemented...
Generally claunch or wisbar...
V

For big icons, you could also try iLauncher, PocketPlus, and... didn't somebody else just release a new tab launcher?
As vijay noted, the fanciest screens are pretty much gonna be using Wisbar or claunch.

go to screen settings, ie for stylus setup, then youll see text size!

The icon itself can't be over 32 pixels, but you can set the actual size of the icon on the screen larger than that. However, you *may* lose some resolution in doing that.

I use claunch too. Its simple and very usefull application. bravo maheri, kar tako naprej. Keep on, maisters.

i see.
so then, no more solution it's simple same cLaunch?
i don't like wisbar.
any simple software like cLaunch can make my PPC like iPhone

Yes. All you need is cLaunch. Keep your maximum icon size at 32 and then set the icon size you want on the screen. I've seen some good results with icons as large as 48 on the screen. I personally set my icon size on the screen for 36 -- but that's only due to how I want it to end up looking with a set number of rows and tabs.

so, the quality is bad.
i think good icon size for iPhone theme is : 42 x 42 pixels.
I just mail to cLaunch author, but have no response.
perhaps i'll switch to this solution:

notification bar font

Is there a way to make the font on the notification bar smaller? I changed the system font to the smallest, but that doesn't change the bar. With all the icons and battery percent it nearly takes up the whole screen.

I've also noticed that changing the system font doesn't change the font in the notification bar, either. Anyone have any ideas?

how about to add a different color, not the crap they have

For example with oreo minotaurus Rom and minotaurus Rom control you can change the navbar hight and also the colour from the navbar Icons

Should be possible with an XPOSED module installed

I know. But how do this without root ?

That's easy. Just set the color with adb. Same as on Nougat.

thoroughly hide the navigationbar ?
you can use the mt manager to edit the Famework.apk
and find the navigationbar to set up to 0

ADb commands to moved nav down
Adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-140
This will change the position of the nav bar on 8.0 not the height. (my s8+ the nav bar is just off screen with -140)

Change size of nav bar buttons

Hello, I would like to know how to change the dpi ONLY of the nav bar. I found some guides online, but they were for Kitkat or older versions of Android. Thanks for the help!

I'm on AOSPExtended and I'm using the smartbar mode, because the pixel animation is there

So the rom doesn't have an option to increase/decrease the navbar size, right?
I would say that maybe you should ask on the aospEX thread for help.
On Validus for example you can change the size of the navbar.

Try downloading Custom Navigation Bar from Play Store. It configures a lot of things including the one you desire.

Too big Icons

Can someone tell me why the Icons in the Recent have become so big? they were smaller. how can you fix that?

Is your home screen and app screen grid set to 5 x 6?

Here's the shot.
but no matter which grid you use the icons in the recent stay so big

Oh, I see what you're talking about now. I'm not sure though, as I don't use that feature. I turned off the recommended apps under my task switcher. My icons are the same size though.
