Nope. If you want to change icons without rooting you'll need alternative launcher like Apex, ADW, GO or Nova (which I prefer the most). All of them are free (but you can buy full version with few features added). Check them out on Google Play.
Yes you can... Get Desktop Visualizer from Play store... And you can put your custom icons for anything......

Hi,
I've been searching but couldn't find - are there any custom docks for GO Launcher ? There's many for LauncherPro, but not for GO...
I've tried some that were made for LP but then it asks me to resize them and it doesn't look "right".

Have you tried the new GO Launcher EX? IMHO, it is head and shoulders above any other launcher out there. The new EX version has added support for themes.
The devs are also updating constantly, as well as adding themes. There's only a couple on there at the moment, but the Classic one is pretty neat.
Hi, yes, my old GO launcher offered a download of EX version but there are too few themes at the moment so I guess all we need to do is wait, unless someone else starts making custom themes...

Yeah, I'm up for trying that.. have emailed the dev asking for any instructions/guide etc.
Do you know some custom dock icons special for Go Launcher

Ok let me ask again. Icon pack specially for this launcher. Not for LP or ADW. Just icons.
If docks means dock icons than is my bad

Killer apps from the dev. Even though I have been with Launcher Pro plus, I fell in love with the Go Launcher at first try.
Go SMS is a sexy chick for all the sammy users as the stock sms app is a ****ty ui app.
Go SMS rocks......
How can i change the lockscreen (ring) from a sense rom? i want default sense or default stock android
Which Rom do you use?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
Widget locker makes you choose between stock, old sense, new sense, iphone etc. Great app

You could also try go locker - free from market. Loads of different themes/ styles downloadable from market, some free, some paid.

The apps mentioned (widget locker, go locker, lockbot) will give you a new lockscreen - whatever style you want. This could be default Gingerbread android, or like the new ICS android or something completely different. Most are free, with a selection of free themes to also download and try. I've got go locker with ICS theme on my cheap tablet - works great. If you don't want to download the app - just try a google search of images of go locker - you can get a good impression of what's available.
You also mention getting rid of the ring, not an app to replace them? There are also apps which will get rid of the lockscreen altogether, so the screen is on when you press a button. Not used them myself, but "No Lock" seems highly rated on the market.
If for some reason you actually want to mod the rom - then sorry, that's beyond me!
If you running Revolution grab the lockscreen and idlescreen apk out of the LeeDrOiD hd port that is pretty much a 2.1 rom till you add the sense 3 add on. It should work out, they use the same base.

I was wondering about this also. Upon research and a lot of googling, I think we can only use live wallpapers if we don't use HTC Sense but instead use other launcher app like Launcher Pro or Go Launcher EX. Haven't tested it though.

I believe the SuPrimo ROM has a link to an add-on that allows the battery percentage to be displayed on the top right. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640995

Ive downloaded & installed a few new themes for my One V and i cant seem to find it nor bring it up on the device?

Hi all.
I have HTC One V, not rooted. I don't like Sense 4.0, so I use Nova launcher. But I would love to have that transparent notification bar in Nova, so I was wondering if that was possible? I'm willing to root if it happens to be so.

Yeah, but will those status bars work under a different launcher (not the default one)? The status bar in Sense just works with default launcher, not with the Nova.
yea try PA, i use NOVA works perfeectly
Ehh. I saw a thread like this, don't know if it is possible. I can attempt, but I don't think it will work.
The way HTC made it is so the transparency doesn't blend with the background in apps like the browser. Rooting won't help you. If you want to, you will have to use a different Rom, non sense, or ignore it
Transparency also eats performance a bit.

Nova. Have been testning almost all of the launchers out there. Allways comming back too Nova.

Nova Launcher and Apex Launcher are head to head usually. Both are excellent. You can also try Holo Launcher HD or the new Action Launcher Pro. Nova, Apex and Holo are all pretty much the same in terms of features, but Action Launcher is something new.
I use Nova Launcher as I got the paid version for 25 cents during the Google Play 25 billion apps sale. It's fast, works well and has all the features I need.
yeah but Nova launcher has some downsizes...isnt so customable has the others ..but the real benefit(Also) is the Battery..nova consume lowest batter of all launcher..so give it a shot because is a nice launcheer...and also u can try NEXT launcher..because is something different.
Im currently using Atom, on ICS i got better battery life than nova.

This tread will be better as pool but anyway
I use APEX
why dont u guys use SENSE LAUNCHER ? I like sense beecause it has alot of widgets..and if i change it with NOVA..or apex some widgets will dissaper

The only widget which i miss is the Gallery widget.
Everything else I can find elsewhere.

i use Nova with different icon packs. i also recommend SS launcher if you are looking for something different.
Personally I just found next launcher quite expensive but a pretty cool launcher and very polished
