[Q] CM7 ROM gmail count on dock - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, is there a possibility to show the gmail unread count in the dock of CM7 ROM ?
thanks
Nico

I know there's an App you can download that will do it but I don't believe (be nice if I'm wrong) that there is any setting for CM7 that will show it.

yes, you're right, I found an app called "ADW count", which is great because CM7 uses ADW as a launcher
it works fine !!
Thanks again
Nico

No worries, you're welcome.
Enjoy Cyanogen.

[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.

how do i change the icons of the apps in my dock WITHOUT using a custom launcher?

hi everyone,
is there a way to change the icons of the apps in the dock on my GN? i tried installing Go Launcher EX and i found that it wasn't very fluid. I would much rather stay with the stock launcher. i just wish there was an easy way to change the icons in the dock so they could match the style of my home screen!
dialer, gmail. handcent and web browser are what i'm trying to trick out.
any help is very appreciated!
thank you
chris
As far as I know, it's not possible to modify app icons in the dock of the stock launcher.
^ seconded...I'm not sure that it can be done without a) changing the files in the framework on the Stock Rom, or using another launcher.
crud ok then, which launchers have worked the best for you on the GN? I'm really looking for one that will be as fluid as the stock launcher and not hog too many resources
ADW Ex is updated for ICS and is very quick/smooth and resource friendly.
You can do it with "Desktop Visualizer". Just create a new shortcut with the app, apply any icon you want, assign it to the application you want to open and drag it down to the dock.

Can't do this with folder organizer?

Nope, that's not possible. The Folder Organizer-folder does'nt stick in the dockbar.

Of course you can. I have.
Use Folder Organizer shortcuts, they work perfectly.
Edit: Nevermind. Misunderstood the question.

Missing email icon

Ive tried searching a lot to no avail.
Not sure how but on my one x running ARHD sense (ICS 4.0.4) the email icon has disappeared from the dock at the bottom of the screen, and its doing my head in.
I cant find how to edit the dock in the phone settings either.
email is still there and functional, just the link icon in the dock gone missing.
Any help?

Why are you uskng stock launcher, it's a pain in the ass. Use Apex Launcher, much morw customisable, including custom dock icons

Because im happy with it. I may well try another launcher thanks and I'll check out apex but any chance of some advice on fixing current setup and issues instead of "hey, do this instead..."
Not possible changing dock apps in sense launcher, hence the "hey, try this instead"...

Just find the email app in your list of apps, long press to take you to the home screen (like your adding a shortcut) and drag the icon onto the dock. You can have any apps you want there. No need for custom roms for this one.

i didn't have any problem switching out the stock sms icon in the dock for the handcent one - no non-sense (no pun intended) launcher needed.

I knew someone would have the knowledge to answer this properly.
I moved up from an HTC Hero to this so Im still getting used to newer Android features.

How can I have notification icon showing up on apps icons?!

Hi guys,
Is there anyway to have such option on my phone?
(see attachment)
I'm using an HTC Desire HD running ICS AOKP custom ROM.

Some apps can. I believe go launcher does.
Lol that's an iPhone, you could always get one of those I guess
I think launcher pro has this kind of notification for sms/email etc in the dock bar never tried it on ICS.
Apex launcher pro has these too and is a great launcher for ICS. Check out the section for unread notifications here:

Nova launcher pro does that as well...

[APP] Jellybean 4.2 clock widget (in the playstore)

Hi there!
i remade the clock widget of jellybean 4.2!
i used the official images
and its ready to download from the playstore!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...WluLkplbGx5bmV3LldpZGdldHMuQW5hbG9nQ2xvY2siXQ
hope you like it!
FAQ
why wont the widget open my clock/alarm app?
the reason is because i programmed the widget to open com.android.deskclock
so if your running a rom other then AOSP this might not work for you!
the widget wont show up in my app drawer
if you run android 4.0 or higher it should pop up in the widgets section(if u use stock launcher)
if not please reboot en look again
running android 1.5/2.3
hold your desktop till the menu pops up then selecht widgets and find the clock
if the clock is not listed please reboot
if there are bugs or problems please contact me

the reason is that the widget calls com.android.deskclock to open
