[Q] changing ADW action button icons

So I was messing with my adw launcher settings and somehow all of my action buttons at the bottom changed to these plain ugly gray colored icons. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the actual icon of the app shortcut to show up there again like it used too. I remember being able to select the shortcut's icon from several different options? This is probably a dumb/easy question but any help is greatly appreciated!

I swear I tried every setting in there but I guess not. It was the icon tint setting, oops

Theme help?

How would I go about changing the color of the battery icon, 3g icon and everything else in the notification bar and notification area in a theme I didn't build?
Or change the entire color scheme of a finished theme?

You'll need the framework-res.apk. Open it with winrar or 7zip, navigate to /res, and drag the folder drawable-hdpi to your desktop or wherever. Inside there you'll find a lot of images that you may or may not want to alter. Once altered, go back to that framework-res.apk that you have opened but not altered, delete the matching .png, and simply drag your altered .png into the archive. That's the simplest way to make changes, as decompiling/recompiling a themed framework usually yields issues.

Edit....
vvvvvvvvv

Just so you know, the notification icons for messaging and email and stuff are in the apks themselves. If you need any help let me know.

Yeah it took me a little while and then I was like oh wait you can look inside apks with winrar and I found the res folder so im coloring everything right now.... so .... many..... files.... its gonna take a while.... could I take maddoggin's 6 lock screen mod and just drop it in the theme or is there some files I would have to change first to accomplish this

How do you make the edges of an icon clear... I changed the lockscreen sliders icon and the edge of the icon is hanging over the slider

Changing app icons with ADW Launcher?

I was just wondering if there was a way to change all of the app icons through the theme feature on ADW launcher? I've applied a theme and some of the icons have changed, but I want to change the remaining apps with the provided icon pack in the app drawer. Every time I change an icon on the home screen, it doesn't change in the app drawer.
Just wondering if there was a method?

[Q] App themer/icon changer

I know that in apex/nova/go launcher you can apply a theme to the icons but is there an app that can change individual icons of apps?

put the icon on your desktop of android hold on it click edit then the icon and change the icon images to your liking

You can search your browser for "icon".png and download any picture you find to your gallery and change to it ("icon" being the subject you are searching for).

Desktop visualizer is the best for that sort of thing. You need to grab icon packs from somewhere first though.

I think "Folder Organizer" is a good choice for what you're looking to do. It's not a full launcher that takes over the U.I., but it allows you to create folders, have nested folders (folders in folders), assign custom icons for folders and apps (using icon packs or .PNG images), and it helps keep tabs on all your apps. One of the features I like the most is the various folder widgets that allow you an extreme amount of options for displaying open folders including icon sizes, text captions on/off, border options, etc.. Lots of other features but the ones I listed seem to address what you're looking for. Here's the link:
Folder Organizer by Fabio Collini (there's a free version as well)

Thanks for the apps, but I would like to be able to change the icon in the drawer too!

Manually icons?

Is there a simple way to manually change icons? Not just for homescreen but in the app drawer as well

I don't understand you

Install a 3rd party launcher like Nova. It'll change the icons on your home screen as well as the app drawer. That's after you download and apply icon pack.

Also I know theres some Icon packages by Black Bear Blanc over in his thread that Themes EVERY icon, no matter what it is.

or look at the icons here on his playstore:

Personally, If I ever feel the need to really change an icon, Ill photoshop it myself and replace it in the res folder of the app and re-install.

Well then there is no easy way to do it. You'll have to do what the guy above me said.

That icon changer app only changes the homescreen icon
So unzip the apps apk with 7zip then replace the icon file in the res folder? I might be able to do that.
I had a Meego Icon pack once that I could just add icons using a template from Nokia. It was packed as an apk so I could just add icons using 7zip and install it.
Do you know where icon pack apks are located? Maybe if I can pull it off the phone then I can add icons to the icon pack

If you're using a launcher like apex or nova you can change the icon and name by holding down the app icon and choosing edit
If that's not what you want then use the icon changer app above
