App Drawer Messed up in Launcher, HELP - Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps

I downloaded Launcher for my galaxy s and all the icons for the apps are on the text as you can see below, any fix?

is that Launcher Pro?
did you try to restart the phone?
i see the fonts are out of place
it's just a graphical thing, it should be fine after you restart

[Q] Vanilla Icons

Hello,
is there a simple way to replace all the Samsung standard icons with the Vanilla (stock) Android icons?
I really don't like many of them (e.g the ugly messaging icon).
Thanks in advance
Hmm...maybe with launcherpro you can change icons for apps you put on your homescreen. You can't do that with app drawer.
The only way seems to install a aosp-clean rom (when we'll get cyanogen I think we'll be ok) OR to install the aosp version of the apps you're interested in...guess they won't all work, but some should. Music will definitely work (I used it in some rom, and the samsung icon is really horrible), also calendar and messages I think should work...of course that would change also the application itself, not just the icon...
Download ADW Launcher, and then search for "aosp adw theme" in market and install.
Folder organizer might be useful in this case.
Although haven't tried!

I do it but that way i still don't have the AOSP drawer like the second picture that you can see here
there's a setting somewhere in ADW to activate that kind of drawer?

No, that's the 3D App Drawer from Launcher Pro in that picture.

[Q] Stock app icons replaced with bugdroid.

Just updated to 4.4.2, wiped, and then installed google now launcher but I'm having a weird issue. A couple of LG apps like email and weather have had their icons replaced with a bugdroid icon. Mind you, this is only when I'm using Google now launcher. When I'm using the stock one, the icons are normal. Anyone know what's up with that?

Me too - I'm on the stock rooted UK 4.4 ROM. I installed Nova Launcher & the aforementioned icons are generic. The same happens with Apex Launcher. I tried deleting the icon cache in Nova Launcher under Lab Settings but nothing happened. If I try to edit the shortcuts on the desktop the relevant app icons are blank.
The icons look fine when using the stock launcher.
On holo launcher it lets me edit the icons of items in the dock and on the home page.
Rather than choosing a different image for an item, I can also choose "default icon".
This fixes the icons, but only on the home page and in the dock, not in the app drawer.

did anybody try the stock widgets to see if they work like task manager because they used to work for 4.2.2

Not with Nova Launcher
Anyone have a theory as to why this is happening on third-party launchers?
I've emailed the Nova Launcher dev & will see if he replies
The dev wasn't able to help. Is there a way to extract the stock app icons from the ROM as image files and then we could edit the shortcuts?

In Holo launcher I can simply select the icons on the home page and change the images.
When changing I get the option of using a custom image, or use default.
When I select default, the icon works again.
However this fix only works on the home screen, not in the app drawer.
I know this thread is a little old but I just upgraded to KK and was wondering if anyone figured out how to fix this?

I just found a trick that worked for me, set nova's icon size to 85% in nova settings and the stock icons come back to life

Home screen not visible

Well i rooted my chinese galaxy note 2 and it was until i deleted some apps. After i deleted and pressed home screen button i couldn't view anything except the notification bar. No tray icons no screen but only i could see is the background and notification bar through where i only access settings. I tried factory reset but no use. Please help me with this matter.
You probably removed the launcher. As you are rooted, get some launcher like Nova or Apex as .apk and install it with ADB

STOCK Launcher Issues

I have decided after three days to give the stock launcher a chance once again to use after having used the action launcher 3. When I use the stock launcher it takes a long while to load from getting out of using an app and shows a blank screen for 5 seconds. Why is this issue occuring?
Hasn't happened for me. Stock Launcher seems very fast.

I have found the problem. The problem is to why I encounter that js because when you get the icon pack of your choice for the theme of launcher is when the launcher gets that way.

Problem changing icon image

Hi there,
I have been using Nova launcher for years without problems. Yesterday I bought a Galaxy S9 +, and of course I also installed Nova launcher. But I have a problem with changing the icon of the application drawer on the dock. I can change the icon, but if I confirm, the icon does not change. It always remains the stock icon. I can change the other icons in the dock without any problem. Only that of the application drawer can not change. It makes me crazy because I have always been able to change this on my previous smartphones. Can someone help me?
Thanks!

I have been having the same problem on all my devices:
Moto G5s Plus
Samsung S8
Samsung Note 9
Samsung Galaxy Tab A
It looks like the dev will have to give this some love...
Came here to say this as well. Thought it may be because I switched to the Android 10 Beta on my OnePlus 6T.

As far as I know every android comes with a default launcher. In android 10 default launcher will have a dock that will show up in recent screen. Currently 3rd party apps cannot show their dock in recent screen (olny default launcher can). Yours' is a different problem. If you could remove app drawer icon from dock from default launcher it may solve the issue. Try reading this: https://android.gadgethacks.com/how-to/force-android-10s-gestures-work-with-any-custom-launcher-0238065/ . It will make you understand better.
