Icon Size - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi all,
I just upgraded from my old Galaxy S to the SIII and am trying to keep the same icon's and theme that I had before, but with the new screen size, all of my icon's are too small. Can anyone tell me what the best size for icon's are for the SIII? I did a quick search here, but didn't see anything that was what I was looking for.
Thanks in advance.

[REQ] Sprint Menu Icons missing a stock icon

Hi All,
I've just installed sprintmenuicons.cab to get the really nice looking icons at the bottom, but it's missing the small icon and the larger transparent picture that appears when swiping for the stock tab. I assume that this is due to the Diamond not having the stock tab present. Is anyone artistic enough and technically capable of adding this to the cab file?
Also, is it possible that we could start a menu icons thread here with attached screenshots and tabs that work on the HD? We've got clocks and top bars, but I've not seen a menu icon thread.
Cheers, A.

Bigger SimiFolders - possible?

Hi there,
is there any way to increase the size of the folders at simifolder when "open"? To see all the 6 (screenshot) Icons without sliding up and down.
Screenshots attached.
I'm using density at 180 and big icons, i love the high resolution icons.
THX THX for any ideas!
And no, i do not want to use smaller icons or make them smaller in size.
First of all, good question. Stopped using Simi for the exact same reason...
Second, could you please tell me the name of the icons? Thanks in advance!
At this Page: http://www.iconarchive.com/popular.html there are all the wonderful and GREAT looking icons including the one on the pictures, found on the first 1-3 pages. But there are better ones available, all free.
Thanks! Looking great indeed. Time for some more customization

Simple answer: No, there is nothing you can do about that. It's hardcoded that way into the app. Try to get in touch with the app developer and see if he is willing to implement it.

Icon Size Question

Hi all,
I asked this in Q&A and haven't seen any responses yet, so I'm hoping to get more traction in here. Anyway, I just upgraded from the Galaxy S to the SIII and am trying to keep the same icon's and theme that I had before, but with the new screen size, all of my icon's are too small. I'm using Launcher Pro so I know how to change the icons I want, I just don't know what size to make them this time. Can anyone tell me what the best size for icon's are for the SIII? I did a quick search here, but didn't see anything that was what I was looking for.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure who or how someone will answer this for you. Without knowing what you mean by matching your theme from your s2, how would anyone be able to tell you the best icon size? The default dpi is 320. That fits five or six across without looking too cramped.
On a side note, I can't think of any reason to use LauncherPro on an ICS+ phone. Nova Prime is only a quarter today. Give that a shot. It's built for ICS. LauncherPro hasn't been updated in over a year.

I use go launcher for the reason they let you decide the icon size up to 200p i believe. To my knowledge there is no one else that does it unless recently.
Give it a go.

danjbry,
Thanks for the response, I guess my questions it probably not asked correctly, and perhaps I am going about things they way I did when the Captivate was out. To sum up what I am asking, what is the size in pixels of the stock icons on the SGS3? My icons I made for my Captivate are 72 x 72 pixels with a resolution of 72. I hope that helps. If not, I guess I could just find one of the stock Icons and figure out the size myself, I just figured it would be a common question/knowledge.
Thanks again,
Dave

Ahhhhhhhhhhh... I get it. Everything I'm seeing says that 72x72 is the proper size for xhdpi, but I've also seen some icon size issues with LauncherPro in the past. I stopped using it on my Atrix 4g last year because it made every custom icon set I used look tiny. And that was on a 4 inch screen.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

No problem. I've actually made a bit more progress. I did a restore of my Launcher Pro settings and it put some Desktop Visualizer shortcuts for direct dial back and those were small, in addition to the dock icons. I re-added the the direct dial shortcuts with Desktop Visualizer and they are the right size now. So it seems it was not a size issue so much as a data restore issue. I'm still going to look into the other launcher you mentioned, as soon as I get done setting things up.
Thanks again for the responses.

[Q] Changing Touchwiz icons

Hi guys,
Searched a bit this morning and found a few awesome icon packs I would like to try out with my current touchwiz launcher. The problem is: I have no idea how. After a quick search I came across a program called Unicon but I'm searching for a "free" way of changing my icons.
Is there a way to change the Icons by modding some files?
Thanks in advance,
Kaïn
Sorry for being a noob, found the solution, thread can be closed.
