How would one go about changing the icon of a folder on the home screen? I've read about changing app icons but can't seem to find any pointers on changing a folder icon. And I'm more interested in changing it in root than using an app to change the home screen. And bettercut doesn't do this, I tried. Thanks.
+1 Id also like to know. I just DL allot of icons and would love to know how to apply them.
mentioned in earlier threads.... folder organizer in the market, download lite version.
folderorganizer is the truth.
i use moreicons widget as well, the tandem will completely declutter your home screens so you can fill them with other widgets.
if moreicons widget supported folderorganizer...that would be the tits.
app organizer is another option. it is about the same as folder organizer lite.
my opinoin folder organizer lite < app organizer < folder organizer(paid)
Hmmm. I seem to be unable to add shortcuts in Go Launcher on one of my Kindle Fires.
Installed everything (root, framework, google apps and go launcher) via Kindle Fire Utility 0.91 multiple times - no dice.
I also noticed that the Kindle Fire app does not start. Tap on it ... nothing.
Looking for a solution also, same with ADW. Just installed Go hopping short cuts would work as I would like to put a few bookmarks on my home screen.
Same here: want to put some bookmarks on the home screen

I have Folders Organizer on my KF. I can add shortcuts by using Widgets Folder Organizer Items and then use one of it's shortcuts (you can create your own). Works fine.
I am using a Stock Rooted ROM with ADW.
Application Folder will allow you to make a bookmarks shortcut.
+1 for Folders Organizer. I can't imagine my KF without it.
I tried both Application Folder and Folder organizer, but didn't get it to work the way I wanted. I then found VCut Shortcut, which works great for me.
To create a shortcut, you have to make a bookmark in the Amazon browser (Opera didn't work for me), start VCut, go to Bookmark, long-press the desired bookmark, choose Create shortcut to Home.
Another +1 for Folders Organizer. Very helpful app.

First I had Themer. Brilliant! But then I wanted to get my Nova Launcher-functions back (e.g. transparent statusbar for facebook- and other notifications), so I had to buy Zooper Pro. Now I don't get the widgets from my favorite Themer-Theme to Zooper Pro under Nova. :/ I don't find them anywhere in the list.
1. Trying to place a widget on Homescreen --> Overview -->"Themer Everything Widget" 1x1. Nothing happens (small, invisible, empty widget).
2. Trying to place a widget on Homescreen --> Overview -->"Themer Zooper Widget" 1x1. Transparent box with "Loading ZW ...". Nothing happens then.
3. Trying to place a widget on Homescreen --> Overview -->"Zooper Widget Pro" --> any size --> touch --> "SD-Card" --> nothing there.
So how do I get single widgets from Themer to Zooper Pro?
Another issue with my Galaxy S4: When moving back from KNOX the wallpaper is enlarged. How to solve that one?
Thanks for your help! :highfive:

I think the following should work: load the theme you want to copy the widgets from in Themer. Then open a file manager of your choice and go to
Code:
/sdcard/MyColorScreen/Themer/MyThemes/<somenumber>/widgetconfigs/
. There should be multiple folder in there depending on how many zooper widgets the theme uses. Go into each folder and copy any .zw. file you find to
Code:
/sdcard/ZooperWidget/Templates/
. Now you should be able to open them via the way you described in 3.
Oh and for future reference: please post either a new thread or in the Q&A thread and not both. This makes it harder to help you if answers get spread over both threads.

I tried. And I failed. There are no .zw-files in those folders. Path is correct. It's the "Hills"-Theme (not a number as a foldername). 8 Folders (numbered from 1 to 8). In each folder there are files like e.g. sw.theme, sw.theme.human, mcs_62679 and one thumb.png. But no .zw-files. :/ Using "Root browser".

Ok, then that was a fluke of me importing a locally exported Theme. Here is another thing you could try: Load the theme in Themer, unlock the widgets, long tap on them and select configure. In the edit window that opens select the save icon in the action bar, choose a name and save. Now it should be available in the sd card category in Zooper Pro.

Nope. Already tried that. I get no files showing up in the sdcard-category. Stays empty.

Huh, interesting. I tried it out before posting and it worked without a hitch. Don't have a clue why I does not work for you, sorry.

I think I found out what the problem is. The widgets made with Themer are called "Everything Widgets", the other ones (I now can find them in sd card category after saving) are Zooper Widgets with far more options when editing them (grey menu). So it seems that most of the preconfigured Themer-Theme-widgets are not compatible when importing those in Zooper Widget.

Ah ok, I thought you had already made sure that you were trying to export Zooper widgets, missing the obvious solution Yes, Themer supports two widget solutions. Everything Widget is the older variant before they bought and integrated Zooper. Naturally you can only import widgets based on Zooper in Zooper Pro
Okay, this sucks. :/ Is there a way to have the statusbar transparent while using Themer? This is just one reason why I wanted to go back to Nova Launcher. The other one is that I often was thrown back to the Nova Desktop (with then corrupted UCCW-Icons) while using Themer AND closing or coming back from one app. Even if Themer is set to standard launcher.

Since this is no longer a Zooper issue and I don't really use Themer that much, you are probably better off taking this to the Themer subforum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/themer/general . The people there should be in a better position to help you then me
I noticed that about 2 weeks ago I couldn't add shortcuts to desktop.
Eg. from file manager, add folder shortcut to desktop
Eg. from Chrome, add site shortcut to desktop
Don't know why or how to fix it. I'm using the stock rom, without any launcher customizations.
Hi,
i have a toggle folder that i would like to use in zooper, but that doesnt seem to work.
in zooper, i am going to the module on tap, shortcuts, toggle folder. when i press the element on the zooper widget, nothings shows up. the folder toggle is working perfect on a stand alone basis (homescreen shorctut) but not in zooper.
anyone is facing the same problem or is it just me?
thanks
