Hey guys does anyone know of a way to disable/remove the app name labels in the homescreen? And not by using a different launcher.

If you're stock, no, I don't believe that's an option. I'm on CM10 and I have the app names turned off, I love that feature.

Hello,
considering the rom I use, is there a way to remove the labels of the apps on the "desktop" ? I currently have Messages/Mail/Internet/Music.
Thanks everyone for the trick.
I dont think u can do it with sense, but launcherpro could possibly do it..

press and hold the icon and drag it to the bottom 'Remove' option that appears.
Edit- I am telling about the HTC sense based ROM. Dunno about yours.

That removes the entire shortcut He just wants to remove the labels. No idea if it's possible on Sense though...
It is possible but there's no universal way to do it. You need to modify your rosie.apk to get them removed.
Look for an app called "Desktop VisualizeR" or "Multicon"

There is an app called apk manager, or apk editor...
You can use it on your pc to edit your apps (icon,label,etc...)
It's created by an xda member... Google it!
With this app you can remove labels.

Couple of q's
How do I get just an individual wallpaper for my lock screen rather than my normal wallpaper??
There's also a screenshot of someone's phone where there app icons are words,I know I change them as I figured that out in a different thread, is there a package for the word icons?

It is known that Sense UI doesn't allow custom lockscreen as it only provides the downloadable package from the HTC server.
The same thing applies to the stock launcher as well. You can't change the icon into words - unless you use third party app launcher and lockscreen such as Launcher Pro and WidgetLocker. By using this app, you can change anything you want, including what you have mentioned just now.
Both apps are available on the Market in free or paid edition.

You can do that on Sense 3.5 (in the personalize menu). I can't remember whether that option was there in 3.0 or below, so it might depend on what ROM you're using at the minute.
Thanks for the replys, sorted wallpaper now onto the widgets,thanks to All

I really need some assistance removing icon labels without using a launcher that supports the feature. I use MiHone Launcher and it doesn't have the option to remove icon labels. This of course is a problem, and which is why I would rather flash a mod since I don't want to switch launchers for just one feature. Can anyone help?
Why you not ask the dev of your launcher for this feature?

Hey guys just picked up my HTC one m8 and I love it so far. I've bought almost every single launcher in the past 2 years for all of my android devices. I love using blink feed but I can't seem to use it when I put a launcher on. Does anyone have a quick fix for this or is it a common problem.

There was a workaround to get it to work with Nova launcher at the Verizon M8 side if I remember correctly. It had something to do with Nova launcer action shortcuts etc.

Yes choose shortcuts then activities scroll down to HTC BlinkFeed (expand that) Chose the one that says HTC BlinkFeed launcher. That shortcut will take you to the blinkfeed launcher. Just make sure you have that on the blinkfeed page so every time you go to that shortcut blinkfeed will show up.
shortcut option
Another option if u don't want the BlinkFeed shortcut icon cluttering ur home screen is to bind the HTC BlinkFeed shortcut activity to one of the home screen gestures in nova settings. U can also customize it so if u press the home button while on ur default home screen it'll take u to ur BlinkFeed page. I personally like this option the most cause it allows u to switch back and forth between ur nova home screen andbur BlinkFeed page simply by taping the home button which will toggle u back and forth depending on what screen ur on. Just go into nova settings, under gestures, click the home button option and under shortcuts/activities/htc BlinkFeed select the "Launcher" activity then make sure u check the box that says "only on default home screen" and then bam, ur in business. Hope this helps.

How do I get these widgets ? I saw these cool looking black widgets from a review screen shot. I could only find the "Hot Spot" widget in my settings, no others though.

Press longer homescreen where you want to put the widget, choose "widgets", scroll down until you find your widget of choice, for example the bluetooth-widget and tap it, that is all
They are stock HTC widgets, if you don't have them, you might have removed them (if you're rooted) or they just were not included in the ATT model.
You won't see them if you are using a 3rd party launcher.

I am running InsertCoin ROM, and no custom launcher, and still not seeing these options for these widgets, except just the HotSpot 1 x 1 Widget, no others though
Then you removed then during install as the majority are checked to be removed by default, you must reflash Rom, and uncheck the ones you want to keep,no need to wipe.
