Hey,
Is it possible to change the icons on the dock of Miui?
See here,

They look so ugly because they're glossy and out of place I wish to use the Sauve HD icons like I have for some of my apps above.
Thanks!

Launchers of like Touchwiz, iPhone, MIUI and DELL android tablet use those squared backgrounds for the icons on their home screen.
I've searched XDA for a themer/dev who has done this but no luck.
People seem to rather remove the iPhone's icon style but I think it looks nice.
Now I want to achieve this effect on a Sense or non-Sense based ROM without photo shopping every icon.
So is there a way to mod a Standalone Launcher like LauncherPro or ADW to have this icon style?
I'd love to help if any dev wants to give this a shot.
Thanks.
Ah, on second thought, I posted this at the general android forum because I can get more answers there, sorry.
Please delete this thread.

Hi!
I've encountered a problem using transparent docks in Launcher Pro. I've created a dock which I want to be a bit transparent (like 90-95%). I've changed the opacity in Photoshop to the wished level, but when saved as a .png it is still solid, both in launcher pro and on quickview on my mac. Is there a way to adjust this? It looks to solid when used without transparency on my galaxy s. Also I don't think this can be solved by adding the dock to the wallpaper, since I want it to be scrollable and this would break the dock when skipping to the other homescreens.
Here is a link to the dock:

I think that you should make transparency about 30-40% and when saving png to save it as interlaced. Not sure but I would try it like that, because I think that 95% transparent is almost like solid color.
EDIT: I also made some personal docks and had no problems with transparency (30-50%)
thanks, i set the tranparency now to 70% and it works =)
Looking for these two themes, cant seem to find them..
The icons are what I'm interested in.

I don't think I've seen those before.

They look like go launcher themes.
It looks like a random launcher pro custom theme. Check for icon packs on Deviantart through the search bar on there site. Launcherpro also has a very nice icon pack on the market and its free if I am not mistaken however the icons are in color.
I'm using msturg29's New Senzation Mod at the moment. I really like the theme and it's running great so far. I'd like to change a couple things on it if I could. I really like the look of the bigger icons in TW over Go Launcher along with the 4 icon dock versus the 5 icon dock. Is it possible to flash or push a 4 icon dock version of TW to this rom? Also, if I want to change the default icon for each app, do I have to change the icon inside of each apk file?
Thanks! I did some searching around without much success, though I did find some stuff on how to change icons in the apk files.

As far as the launcher goes, you should be able to just grab a touchwiz launcher.apk from another rom and push it to /system/app. ("Should" being the keyword of course!!) I'm not familiar with that rom but I would think you could just grab the apk out of whatever stock rom it is based off of. ie, EG-30, EG-31, EL-13, etc... WHATEVER YOU DO, just make sure you do a nandroid back up FIRST so if it gets wonky on you, you can just restore back to your current settings.
For the icons, yes, you would have to change the icon in each apk provided you want to use a stock launcher (like touchwiz) and you want the icons in your app drawer to be themed. If you don't care about the app drawer and just want to change the icons on your homescreen(s), then you could just use desktop visualizer or a launcher like Go or ADW. If you are gonna change each individual apk, you'll just need to decompile them with one of the many tools floating around, swap out the icon (usually 72x72 and located in drawable-hdpi), recompile, and resign. Sounds like a lot but it is pretty easy.
Hey guys,
I really liked the stock icons before the Oreo update (before they got round).
Can someone refer me to an original icon pack I can insatll to revert them?
Thanks.
By round do you mean that white background embedded to the icons now?
Because I'm looking for this too, it's so irritating. It makes the icons look so very ugly..
