ADW launcher and paperless theme

hi all,
I am new on Android, so please excuse my stupid question
I installed the ADW launcher and the paperless theme.
The problem is that not all icons have been changed to the paperless icons, e.g. the phone, contact icons still are the standard icons.
Does someone has an idea how to solve this?
(My galaxy is not rooted yet)
Thanks.

Press the menu button when on the home screen, go in to adw setti
ngs, select themes and there is a check box at the top about which icons to use.

I already tried this. The thing is, that some icons are from the theme, but not all.

Then they are not implemented... write an email to the developers and keep us up to date if you hear anything

Hmmm... As I wrote in my 1st post, the icons for phone and contacts are missing. And these icons are on the screenshots showing the theme,so I assume they are already implemented.

hmm, I don't use ADW anymore, I am on LauncherPro now, but try this:
When I tap the contacts icon for 1 sec I can select a new app to put there... select the contacts app again and then select the right icon.. This is how it works on LauncherPro, maybe there is a similar way on ADW

I noticed this too, seems to happen on non standard dialer/contact apps. I think the theme writers need to fix this, not sure ?
Almost made the switch from LP to ADW if it wasn't for this. I <3 BuuF

This is a problem to do with samsung replacing the phone, messaging and related icons. Where do I find the icons once the theme is installed? I can then go about replacing them.
If someone tells me where the icons are I can tell you how to replace them. I have looked everywhere and don't know where the theme is located.. Do they stay inside the apk in /system/app? Anyone know how I extract the apk
I am also creating a few custom backgrounds and icons for this theme. Any requests please let me know, I will be drawing icons for most of the apps.

I've re-packaged the APK with the proper Samsung Galaxy S icons. If there's still interest let me know and I can post it. All credits to the developer, all I did was rename some files.
Fixes:
Calendar
Calculator
Camera
Clock?
Contacts
Dialer (Phone)

I noticed this problem before too. A workaround that I use is to create a custom shortcut to phone and contacts with ADW and then you can choose a custom icon for it. Then you can choose an icon for your phone and contacts.

Hi merrimax,
I would be interested in the theme for Galaxy.
I just updated (today) ADW and the Main Dock center icon (Apps) is no longer in Paperlss style.

the new update to ADW had a large number of UI changes. I think with that he changed the name of the app drawer picture which is why most of the themes lost their app drawer picture. You just have to wait til the themer updates to the latest ADW. A lot have already, but I know some still arent yet (e.g. BuuF )

Hi merrimax, I'm still interested in the renamed icons.
Where can I find them in the Galaxy?

+1 I wanna know if there are apps similar to Open Home but they work only on the icon. You can download the icon pack and apply this.

Launcher Pro will allow you to customize both the icons and the dock

maybe the app desktop visualizer helps...

try an app called better cut its a paid app in the market but will only change them on your homescreen you can also download icon packs and rename what it shows other wise to actualy change the icon you would need to open up the apk and change the icon file but that woukd probaly get reset after an update so it's a lot of fuss for not much : D

icon changing SENSE?

Hello guys,
I have a little question.
So im using a Sense 3.5 Hybrid rom and i hate the sense icons for some apps (Camera, Browser, Messages, People, ect) and some of them you can change using shortcut apps but some dont like the Messages app.
So i was wondering how can I change the icon possibly in the apk file so it stays permanantly not just with a shortcut (sort of what the SNS Gingerbread rom has http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131217)

You can use a Desktop Visualizer widget and the icon will stick. Since it's a widget, the system can't change it.
If you want to change the icon permanently, you can either use something like Metamorph or Ninjamorph or you can pull the apk and modify it, then push it back. I haven't ever tried theming Sense, so perhaps someone with more knowledge on the subject can help you out.

How to change S3 Icons Picture

Hello I'm looking for a way for me to be able to change the icon picture of any application on my S3.
I do not want any other launcher like apex launcher to be able to do it.
I'm just looking for a simple way for me to select any picture in my gallery for my icons.
Please help!

Do you want to change the icons on your home screen or in your app drawer? You can use desktop visualizer for icons on your homescreen. Even with that I think you need a certain size pic to use as an icon. If you want to change icons in your app drawer you will need to search apk tool and learn how to pull apks from your phone,decompile them, change the icon, recompile them and reinstall them one app at a time. I don't think there is an easy way to do what your asking. If there is I hope someone posts it here cause I would like to know also.

[Q] ADW Editing Icons in App Drawer

After mostly lurking XDA for some time, I'm starting to get more involved here. I just broke down and purchased ADW EX, to setup a custom theme. I'm looking to use a combination of icons from Aw0ken ADW Theme, Elegant, and Simple Text. Naturally I'd like to use ADW EX, as I just purchased it, like it's options, and is compatible with the icon packs I like.
What I need to figure out is how exactly I can specifically edit different icons in the app drawer it's self. I find it relatively simple to change them on the home screen, but see no obvious way to change them in the drawer. My OCD in me is having a hard time here. Too many apps that I use regularly, either do not have a icon in the pack(s) at all, or one that does not look aesthetically appealing imo.
TL;DR - I'm open to any options that could get me to a result in which I could mix and match icons from different packs. Specifically, I want them to mix and match in the app drawer. Can't seem to get to any edit mode there, after trying long presses and multi-presses of icons.
Thanks in advance, let me know if I need to elaborate.

The app drawer that lists all of your applications, or the dock on the bottom of the home screen? Pretty sure u can't edit in the app drawer itself...

The app drawer itself. I know nova launcher lets you, my problem is that I don't see a way to make one of the icon packs work for it.

I use nova prime, and have for a while, and there is no way to change an icon in the app drawer itself!
