[Q] ** Flashing/Changing Icons ** - Desire General

NEED some help..
I got this desire, flashed on cm7 from crackflashers: s-off+cm7 patch
i decited to change some icons, but i can't do it
i've read some threads @ xda but didnt find and solution
I've used bettercut, but that is some of a wack ass app, i want to change mulitple icons not one-by-one
i want icons like the iphone has it with some background kinda like the miui
please help me out..
yes my english is bad..

Ok well there are several ways to change icons (some ROMs i believe even come with the standard sense apps icons already changed) the problem with a batch change is that the app would have to figure out which program to apply which icon to . You have much more freedom changing one icon at a time IMO

[Q] how to edit bottom bar

Hiho!
I hope this question isn't allready answered, but I unfortenately think it is. My searches all didn't serve the answer I'm looking for.
I'm just trying to change the appearence of the bottom bar of my HTC Desire. I'm using VillainROM 1.0 and I allready made it to change the statusbar with editing the framework-res.apk but I didn't find any PNGs to edit the bottom bar.
Is there any tutorial or something that tells me how to change the apperance of the bottom bar? I think I'd also have to edit the "touch area" for fitting to the new bottom bar buttons.
Please excuse my bad english and noobig questions.
greetings, oOzzy
Honestly, I don't think there is a way (through editing files). Sense will remain sense, and launcher2 will remain launcher 2.
Although you can try a new homescreen/launcher.
Your best bet will be checking out ADW Launcher, Launcher Pro or Zeam launcher. But with some googling, I'm sure you can find more.
I'm currently using Launcher Pro

Please Help !!!!!

Hi, i am new on this forum, but i have been following it for the past two months (great forum by the way). I own htc excalibur, and it is a great phone but there is only one thing I want to change and that are icons in start menu. I have found two softwares for changing icons ( JWMD icon changer, and Thekn's icon changer) and none of them worked on 3vo series ROM. So my question is, can someone help me, or make tutorial of making CAB file for icons, so when you install it on the phone all icons are changed. I have found one thread ( cant remember the name) where someone uploaded 2 packs of icons. If someone could show me how to make CAB file of icons, i will do my best to make as much icons packs as I can THANKS in advance

[Q] need a rom/mod/theme to fix my epic

Please move if I posted in wrong section. Was unsure where to request some help.
Background: rooted since feb, have had my share of experience with flashing, odin and rerooting, also some minor bricks needing a battery pull. Im also deaf, and I use my phone for everything but music and calls. Still need phone to use with hamilton app if emergency. Main big one, my vision isnt perfect.
I plan to start from scratch. Odic back to stock, reroot, flash it ei22. I have my eyes set for the mostlystock rom by xbtx unless just flashing themes and mods would work better for what im after? Keep reading to find out what. The less clutter the better. And ill delete whatever I may not need. Like the voodoo sound apk or voice record and dialer. I will use titanium backup to restore my apps.
I can just delete anything related to sound or voice controls but im having a hard time when it comes to font size and resolution. I have font an app to change resolution size along with other apps to change just font size. Yeah ok they work but not exactly clearly. When I tried it with roms it seems like the rom is set to a spacific size so when I try to enlarge font or resolution, certain menues dont configure correctly. The text would be half hiding under the icon above it for that menu or id personaly love to be able to make the app drawer 3x4 so the names of the apps or folders are on one line and not cut in half and shown on two lines.
It also helps when when all the menus are black with white text, same for the signal bar. White bars not blue. Blue is hard to see. I think I seen mods for this but if anyone can revamend the rom and maybe create a theme/mod I can flash to correct these problems. Please let me know.
Im sure im not the only person who has bad eyes. I just wish I could enlarge things or have a better app or menu to really customize font size. I dont care for fancy font. I prefer arial bold if I had a choice lol or the stock font just bold. Anyone up to help me out? Thanks so much!
Ok
So if i read that correctly "
You want a mod or something to make something bigger?
What exactly do u want to make bigger?
yeah the font. there are apps out there that do this but the main problem comes with the app drawer labels or when in actual apps that has a menu that comes up from the bottom of screen.
spare parts doesnt save the enlarged app size. is it possible to make a type of menu baked into a theme that changes font size? and a 3x4 app drawer option?
ok as i think about this. basically its a theme and has these spacific things baked into it.
--3x4, 3x5 app drawer option
--change font size 12-20pt (i use 16-18 but know others who would prefer bigger or if my eyes get blurry id like the option)
--black background white text for ALL menus
--circle battery mod (green is easier to see then the blue)
--keep signal strength bars white
--the brighter green ive seen used can be the secondary color for the other various things, like wifi, 4g, or bluetooth is activated. or as something downloads. whatever
i use golauncher bc i like the folder setup. so no need to add a launcher. is this possible? anything else i may need to make more clear or change?
i appreciate any help! i wish i knew how to do what you devs and themers do! im a graphic designer so thats as close as i get to creating things
Bigger density? That would appear to make everything bigger.

Changing denstiy will make everything bigger but I do not know how to do this... I am sure there is a thread somewhere on here about doing that just search how to increase density and I'm sure you will find something

An app from the market called lcd resolution does this. But when u change the density, it makes EVERYTHING huge and then ur screen gets very smushed and u can't view as much at one time. I use this but only increase the density a tad. Then I use another app for font. Looking around ill just find the black menu theme I'm after. I've seen it somewhere. I flashed the cleangb rom and so far its got what I was after.
Is it possible to make a 3x4 and 3x5 app drawer tweak? Id like 3 colums to beable to read the app/folder title on one line. Thanks for ur guys feedback!

Which font to you want to make larger?
If the font was white wouldn't that work. I think if you make the font larger it would not work in some of the menus. If you still want this done p.m. me.

Hide clock in bar? on desire HD? LeeDrOID rom?

Is there a simple way or a not to complex way to hide or delete the little clock in the status bar? I dont need this clock cause i use the big sense flip clock on my home screen & would rather hide or delete this if this is possible cause i dont see the sense in having two clocks on the same screen, in the past i have changed the clock & status bar to pure black but i would rather just find another way cause there would be a black space in my bar when i do this. I have searched google & xda for a solution & i know some people make this option in there tweeks & also can modify certain files within system ui but i would like to find a tutorial perfebly a noob tutorial on this mod for the Desire Hd & compatible with the LeeDrOID rom.
Thanks in advance to the xda members & thanks for reading this post
No Lee Didnt add this mod to his tweaks yet maybe he will in the next update Man

Change system color - CM-7.2.0-jordan

Hi,
I am looking for a hint how to change the color of the bar icons in my CM7.2? The icons for WLAN, Battery and that stuff comes in a disgusting turquois style, I hate that. I would like to have the green color back like in the old version! How to do?
BTW: I use Launcher PRO, and not the AWD launcher. I tried it with AWD launcher and themes, but this only affects the "front", but not the system in the main bar on top of the screen. So I do NOT want to check themes or something, I am satisfied with it like it is, except color.
Thanks! ;-)
In app draver should be theme chooser, select system there.

Did you read my posting!?
I do NOT (!!!!!) want another theme!
I am satisfied with this one, the standard from installing.
I just want to change the main color of the CM System, (used in the battery icon, the WLAN-Icon and other stuff, right on the right top of the phone for example) from turquois to the green and old one.
You can certainly change the colour by editing framework stuff. But I would like to inform you that it is not easy but not impossible.
You will need to use adb and stuff. Sorry I don't remember the exact details/step.
Plus be warned if done incorrectly it can semi-brick your phone. I will insist its better to look for other CM7 themes for theme chooser. The are hundreds of them.

You dont have to install another theme, it should be in the themechooser already named System, but CM7 defaults to their own Cyanbread theme.
You could use UOT kitchen too.

I feel like someone should say this... You do realize you're running CYANogenMod, right?
Just kidding. Variety is the spice of life. Hopefully one of these guys will be able to show you an easy way to accomplish this.
