Hi,

I've done a bit of research but I'm still not clear on how to change an icon of a third party application.

For example, if I want to change the icon of "GoSMSPro" and put it into the dock, how do I have to name the icon?

I understand the principle: app icons: give the .png the name packageName.png

But what is the package Name.png of GoSMSPro? Where do I find the path.

Sorry, if this is covered already somewhere in the thread but after some hours of searching I'm becoming blur now!

Any help is greatly appreciated?

Cheers,

bamthwok

I get fc every time I try to use the tablet (tabled?) version. I tried fixing permissions but still fc. Regular version installs through the manager but the scaling is off and I can't modify the dock (only one icon shows: the application icon in the middle of the dock).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MrSpinch:
Add me to the ever-growing list of people getting a Parse Error no matter what I do when I try to install the manager. I even went as far as formatting all of my SD information, un-rooting, going to stock (I'm running a Vibrant), re-rooting, clearing Dalvik and Standard Cache, re-loading my ROM (TeamWhiskey's Bionix NextGen V2), fixing permissions, and doing NOTHING but trying to launch the TW4 Manager. APK from the SD card. I also tried installing the app via Root Explorer to no avail. Is there anything else that I can do???

Hi guys, I'm doing a theme but I dont use the SMS app that comes with SGS2. I use Handcent SMS. The question is, can I replace the original Handcent SMS with a different picture in the dock? If its possible, how do I do so? What do I wrote on the .png?

Help is realy appreciated. Have been working on this theme for a while now and I will post it here.

Anyone who wants to know how to theme third-party apps: install LauncherPro, then in TW 4.5:

Add, shortcut, Activities (with the LP logo), then go to the app and see what the name is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] everest.deth:
Everything worked well here, Downloaded TW Manager, installed it as a regular app, updated launcher via the manager and OMG it works beautifully.

Thank you very much to the contributing devs.

I only have one question, how do i add/remove apps on my dock?. The current ones are only two, SMS and app drawer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bobsie41:
Open app drawer then menu/edit then drag and drop apps to and from the dock.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] everest.deth:
Thank you very much. Very nice work btw, works flawlessly on my G2x :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] flexxoo:
Dont understand why if the apk you install it like a regular app doesn't work for everyone?is it because was make only for gingerbread?we need to fix this a soon as possible,dev should answer the questions and be more helpful because we are the ones that giving him feedback!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] iscaryot:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
i got the installation down, now how do i change icons?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nar4:
There are a lot of questions on how to to install that stuff. Here is one more: Via CWM or as a normal .apk after archive uzipping ? Or may be by placing *.apk's to system/app folder?

And also again: does the TW Launcher 4.5 fit GT-I9003 model?

Thnx
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Corwin9S:
hi all.

just to thanks you. I'm using a Galaxy S2 and this works perfectly.

just a simple question (new to GS2) : how to modify the down icons ? (change picture)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
And if you want to change the icon everywhere (homescreen, dock, menu) just com.jb.gosms.png :)

I recommend installing via tw4 manager... or put them into /system/app/ and delete correspondending .odex files.

Maybe someone want to write a faq for things like that? :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] || Acer ||:
Will the themes work for all devices since it's only theming the icons on the launcher? I have a Samsung Epic

Also, I originally downloaded the tw4.apk so the widgets cause it to FC. Can I just upgrade the launcher in TW4 manager to "latest stable version" for it to start working?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Corwin9S:
well... I've read the whole thread and got some answers.

the name of icons on dock bar (bottom one) has to be so :

dock_<package name>.png

well... I found the name of the packages by using some software like "android system" and what I found is :

- package for the phone (dialer) icon is "com.android.phone" and so the name of the new icon should be so named "dock_com.android.phone.png"

- package for the contacts icon is "com.android.contacts" and so the name of the new icon should be so named "dock_com.android.contacts.png"

- package for the sms/mms icon is "com.android.mms" and so the name of the new icon should be so named "dock_com.android.mms.png"

- package for the email icon is "com.android.email" and so the name of the new icon should be so named "dock_com.android.email.png"

- package for the applications/home icon was not found, but looking at other docks skins it should be "dock_apps.png" named

so, I do my icons, I put them all in a .zip, I put the .zip in the ".TW4Themes" folder, I select my theme, I save and quit TW4 which reloads... and not my new icons ! :-(

I try to do the same with three differents packages of docks, same results.

I try to apply theme and then save and then to reboot the phone, still no new icons...

who can tell me what i'm doing wrong ?

my phone is :

i9100, with 2.3.3 version, i9100XXKE7

tx in advance

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ChriisM:
Any help on how to get the program monitor to work? Im dying here
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Corwin9S:
Answering myself...

so :

- when creating the .zip file containing the icons, don't make an under folder. icons have to be on the "root" of the zip file

- installing theme from the homescreen isn't possible (on my device). But if I go in "applications", then I do "menu" - "show list", I can have the settings menu and the if I first install the theme, then choose it... it's ok !

so : WONDERFULL APPLICATION !
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bamthwok:
I tried that, but it does not work for me if I apply the icon as dock_com.jb.gosms.png.

The only way to get the app to the dock is to change the icon of the default app first and then drag the app to the dock afterwards.

I think it is not possible to change default applications of the dock via dock_com.packagename.

Can anyone confirm that?

Cheers, bamthwok

P.S.: New launcher works flawless for me!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] skuzy:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] 24BlackMamba:
yes download TW4 Manager and install then you can upgrade the launcher from TW4 Manager. im having parsing errors when i try to install TW4 Manager, but it has worked for other ppl.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] 24BlackMamba:
i believe you are going to have to flash stock rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] skuzy:
Boo....... not sure if i should stick with jvr or jvq now lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] flexxoo:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] friedi100:
After Updatung the launcher with TW4 manager, the phone freezes and again when i hit save and restart the phone freezes also.

Can you fix this issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
attach a logcat output

I lowered the minSDK version, maybe the guys who got parsing error were running 2.3.3? Try the attached version pls.

And if this version does not work either, attach a logcat when installing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] everest.deth:
I am actually running on 2.3.3 and the previous one worked with no issues lol :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] flexxoo:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] flexxoo:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] white_vision0:
Is ther a way to find out the name of every aplication in the phone in order to change it's icon? A program that would display names or something like taht.

Like you found that for GoSms is com.jb.gosms.png. Thanks

Also i'm trying to change the phone icon, but every way i try, it changes with the contacts icon

I use:

dock_com.android.phone.png

dock_com.android.contacts.png
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Corwin9S:
hi. of course.

you could use for example :

android system

astro

root uninstaller

or.many others

Can you get 5 icon dock with this launcher ???
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bassie1995:
Download Launcher Pro, then on your homescreen: Add, Shortcut, Activities. Then look it up :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Corwin9S:
yes. and many many other features.

===========================================

Here is mine homescreen now :

by the way, the "contacts" and "phone" icons are the same... because I think that package's name is the same. A way to be able to manage the difference ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] azzledazzle:
how do you get the icons in the dock ?

The version im using is the one included in the newest MIUI release, I cant do it, Perhaps its not the same version

Tnx a mil! Fixed FC's for me!

Great job on the launcher, tnx Fr4gg0r!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Corwin9S:
pretty easy, but first time... not really !

1. found packages names

2. create pictures named dock_<package name>.png, with 150x150 pixels

3. create (or take elsewhere) a pageIndicator.png picture (env. 64x64)

4. create a .zip file (with files in the root of the zip file, not in subfolder) with the icons

5. put the .zip file created on the phone, directly in /sdcard/

6. open settings of TW4.5, but from the applications listing

7. choose theme >> install theme >> choose your >> install

8. choose the theme >> apply

9. save and exit

that's all

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jeffojeff:
It's not a dumb question :) and it works just perfect on CM7 SGS2, any nightly :) I am using TW4.5 on CM7 since the first nightly and no problem. But just note that after each CM7 nightly update, you have to re-install TW4.5. Don't worry it will save the settings and wont screw the layout of app drawer or home screen ;)

I updated to last tw4 version via tw4manager and i lost the launcher... Now i only have go launcher... What can i do?

I'm at a JVR odex rom....
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Corwin9S:
well... read what I've written juste up your post :

so... the points 1 and 2 are for you. So, you want the "Handcent SMS" 's package name ?

I give you a little trick : go in the market and search for this product. When found, look at the whole url. It's like :

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.handcent.nextsms&feature=search_result

so... just consider the id, removing the &feature..., so you will find : com.handcent.nextsms. so here you are !

if you want :

- an icon for the dock, you have to write as icon's name : "dock_com.handcent.nextsms.png"

- an icon for the application in the apps list, write "com.handcent.nextsms.png"

well... if it doesn't be ok even with the correct name (as it happens for me), look again at my upper message, I give a solution on what to do (listed in the top of the message).

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] 24BlackMamba:
No you don't have to go to CWM, all you do is download TW4 Manager, then use root explorer (at least thats what I use) to install tw4 manager onto your phone. Then from tw4 manager you can update the tw4 launcher.

Just a small bug-report regarding the 3D-drawer:

2. Exit the app-drawer.

3. Enter the app-drawer.

4. Add another icon to the folder, by pressing Menu->Edit and dragging the icon into it.

5. Press the Back-button to exit "edit-mode".

6. Open that folder.

7. Flip to another page.

8. Press "Force Close" ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Misterjunky:
It's a nice launcher, but needs some more

user customizable features like:

Disable bottom dock icons in APP drawer settings

Disable indicator in APP drawer settings

Icon shortcuts in home screen dock needs to be

user defineable as well as abiltiy to change icons

Right now we cannot add/delete any of the icons

in the home screen dock. We cannot even change

the order they are in.

When long pressing dock icons we need to be able

to remove/move/delete/change icon/change shortcut

The list goes on and on, but these suggestions

are just for starters:

Uhm, that's not true. Have you tried tapping on menu when you're in app drawer -> edit -> drag any app you want and drop it in the dock?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Misterjunky:
Dock Icons

Hey, you are right

but tapping the menu key

in drawer also adds/removes

icon dock home screen shortcuts!

So lets say you want 1 dock shortcut

in the drawer and you want 3 dock

icons in home screen you cannot do it!

Thanks!

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] BeefJerky9:
@Fr4gg0r: Any updates on this issue? This is really my one remaining issue with the launcher, and I would love to see it fixed.

I'd also like to give an addendum to what I described above. If I add an app shortcut to the homescreen after I've added an Astro shortcut (in this case a text file), sometimes (more often than not) the app shortcut will not show after restarting the launcher. If I delete the Astro shortcut, then the app shortcut will once again show after restarting the launcher. At that point, I can re-add the Astro shortcut and all will be fine, including restarts of the launcher. But then, I have to delete the Astro shortcut before changing any app shortcuts, then re-add it in last. I also want to note that I confirmed this behavior with the file shortcut option through other file managers, so it is not something to do with Astro specifically. I suspect this is related to the issue described above. I also want to reiterate that none of these problems occurred in the stock TW3 launcher.

Thanks for all your hard work, it is really appreciated!
