Hello everyone
Since most of you know, sony released a new launcher with icon support. But sadly, they don't support most of the icon packs. A few created by xda members but it's not a real solution. A while ago, I created a tool for automatically convert those icons with computer help. It's based on java, and it's in VERY VERY early stage of development.
It's not guaranteed that it will work at all, but i tried with my phone xperia z3 compact. And it seems worked all the time.
Known bugs
-App name, app icon is not generating. It's always framed with some sorf of icon.
-It freeze while converting because lack of threads
-Sometimes it can't display all of the installed apps , which is absolutely weird
-Only 1 app can be converted for this time because of package names are same. If you convert apk. Just select none and apply. Then select framed again to "refresh" new icons
For the sake of small tutorial, I used polycon icon pack which can be downloaded from google play
1.Connect your phone with usb debugging activated
2.Press "Connect Phone"
3.App will be listed in combobox (it will show app name in the future ofc, and If possible I will limit those apps to display only icon pack apps)
4.Press convert button. ( It will freeze, I know i didn't implemented threads because i'm lazy guy.)
5.Choose it from icon pack settings
Application will download, convert and install apk to your phone.
Here's some screenshoots

Hidden, because they are huge.
Oh bonus, it developed in java. It should be working at mac,linux(replace adb file with linux adb file) ,windows(not yet)
So, there won't be a download for just jar file not yet. I will give you eclipse project, download it. Play with it. I'm open to suggestions. Code fixes etc.
This is first time i ever develop adb app. So I had no idea how to connect device, get stuff etc. I tried my best my it might be stupid solution, please don't hate me.
PS: I'm college student and I have finals. I just put this because i just developed this for 2 hours a week ago and its been there since. I will continue develop when i got time.

Hey guys, unfortunately I have problems with my phone. As I said before, I can't develop anymore. But thanks for 500+ downloads even if it's just source code not even binary!

Nav2recent should work perfectly, just READ the howto and download it here : http://ppc.jhps.shacknet.nu/ Zip-pass is "xdatest"...
Navigate2 is downloadable too, but i only give out the password by mail or PM, since i want to know who is testing it
please give comments or bugreports !
(tested on WM2003 !)
Would you mind if i post a link to this topic to the guys at pocketgpsworld. They've developed a few tomtom addons and would probably be interested in this.
Be my guest, but like i said, i'm not giving the password for Navigate2 away to anyone...
I'd rather have some of the guys here test it first...
My final goal is NOT to make money out of it, but a FREE "navigate to appoinment location" tool available to anyone....
Why ? Because it STUPID that navigationsoftwar has a tool to navigat you to addresses you probably allready know (Your contactlist !), but NOT to addresses you drive to for the first time : APPOINMENT LOCATIONS...
If their willing to help : Great ! If they want to create a tool alike and 'hide' it on their site, or ask money for it: No way...
Just posted the link and hopefully it won't be abused.
The guys at pocketgpsworld have already developed and released (free) a tt5 addon called "POI Capture" which allows for quick saving of speed cameras of various types.
Good luck and i hope everything goes well.

yeah nice
haven't found something like that, an so decided to code it by myself (because studying software engineering).
your links /referred tool, also looks nice, mine is just (as it looks to me, sry my touch hd is in repair, so i can't test it, just [email protected] the screenshots) much more easier, simplier.
I've just reduced it to the absolute basics.
Possibilities: ADD / REMOVE / total items (info) / CREATE-DELETE NEW LISTS
it automatically saves the list in the program directory, and there are no checkboxes... if you bought something, u don't need it in the list anymore (my thoughts)
And in the future I wanna develop some other little tools, helping users every day. Don't know exactly what to do with the domain. Maybe also publishing other help/ useful tested tools from other publishers.
Thanks for the info,
crazyV
Very nice interface, but it crashed when I entered some ê accents in it Test it more please and build a cab installation file, this will be easier.
thanks for support

Hello! If you've used OblyTile in the past, you'll know what an excellent piece of software it is. I always thought that the process of resizing icons was a bit tedious though, and when my Windows 8 install corrupt itself, I couldn't be bothered to start again. OblyAutomator should provide a solution to this. My website hosts an online database with applications, and icons that are suitable for each application. Users are presented with a choice of icons, and OblyAutomator calls OblyTile with the correct parameters, which creates the new tile.
This is a video of OblyAutomator in action:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZmr8tdUOaE
Attached is OblyAutomator. It also requires OblyTile (v0.91) in the same directory. Also included is TileUploader, which allows you to add links to icons to the database. I will moderate these, so your icon link won't appear until I've decided that it's suitable and of a high quality.
I'm not sure if there's a demand for an app like this. This is a very early version, and may have a lot of bugs. Please post your thoughts and comments below!
Thanks,
Thomas
12/06/2013: Version 0.11 Uploaded that prevents crashes when searching for applications, and when deleting temporary files.
Thanks, this looks great, but I only get error when I start this program. See attachment.
Sorry to hear that! Please could you post a larger version of that screenshot? I can't quite make out what the error message says.
Thanks,
Thomas
wor me working great... thanks

Thanks for that. I think I know what has happened, I'll release v0.11 later today which should fix the issue.
Thanks,

Version 0.11 has been uploaded above which should fix your problem!
Hello Thomas
This is a great function, i like the idea! :good:
Please keep working on it. :highfive:

Hi sewa2k, thanks for replying!
If it doesn't recognise all of your apps, then it must not have them in the database! I will have a look at the database and see what icons people are requesting, and try and add some more. Feel free to add them yourself though!
Currently there are 5500 apps that have been found, but only 24 of them have icons! Not all of the 5500 apps are ones that you'd want on your start screen, but today I'll be looking through for some popular apps to make tiles for.
Hello everyone, after searching in the Play Store for what seemed like too long, I began to wonder, 'is there really a file browser that follows Google's latest design guidelines and functions as well as a traditional file browser?'
Then I found Cabinet. While still in [BETA] this browser can easily compete with the main giants ES, FX and Root Browser.
Try it and see the beauty
Please note that I am not the original developer, I just offered to make this thread for him, but I'll answer your questions and maintain the thread

I just messed around and poked around and I love it! So excited to see more material design apps.
Sent from my Nexus 7 flo running slimKat powered by elementalX .
It is a really great file manager, since every other explorer in the Play Store has horrible designs.
Could you possibly add a second panel like Solid Explorer?

At last a good looking file explorer.
I just would have the possibility to change main colors, folder colors and as requested above, folder size. I've already gave 5 stars ! :good:

Thanks for recommending this great file manager I don't know if this is already on the dev's to-do list, but would it be possible if you ask him to implement a shortcut to external SD card in the section menu on the left side of the action bar (three horizontal bars)?
Nevermind, found out that you can manually pin the desired folder to the side menu
I have just tried the Cabinet app. It is really great, but the only defect I faced is that is does not accept moving or copying a file and message appeared saying that the root is denied.
Please help to overcome that problem, thanking you in anticipation.
Hi!
So, on my jailbroken iPhone XS I have a genious tweak that I can click on when I take a screenshot, where it converts the text on the screenshot-text into actual text you can copy.
Anything that does this seamlessly on Android? (Running Galaxy S20 if it matters)

The issue with "regular" apps is that I need to do a screenshot, then open the app, find the SS and then convert to text.
Is there no way of implementing such a thing into the OneUI for example?
So another icon will pop up when I do the SS-shortcut?
Or even making a new shortcut that would "automate" this?
What about edge panel?View attachment 5047209View attachment 5047211

You'd have to ask Samsung about OneUI implementing
The way I do it is just hit the "Share" icon after taking a SS, and share it to the editing app I want to open, pretty much feels like it is part of the SS app that way

This is most likely the best way to do it by far!
Not used to Samsung, so the "share" button wasnt as obvious to me as it should be - but this works very well with Google Lens.
Thank you

No probs :good:
Yea the share feature is very handy for a lot of things, for example you can set up a shared folder on your PC, install Total Commander and the LAN plugin, connect it to the shared folder, then you can use the Share feature to copy files to the PC from the phone via WiFi, select the file > share > total commander > find the PC shared folder > done
