changing icon grid/ matrix? - Android Apps and Games

hi does anyone know how to change the icon matrix?
theres is an app (freedhome) but that takes away sense altogether. i want to keep sense but edit the icon grid because the desire has such a big screen there is a lot of wasted space. also would like to remove text but anyone who knows please come out!
even if someone was to create an app to edit these kinds of settings that would be great.

Total noob question: How can I get the icons without the text?

Total noob question: How can I get the icons without the text on my front screen?
can't, unless you use a home replacement app (but i don't know which one will do it for Nexus One).
for Dream/G1 "advanced launcher 2.1" provided that option, but then... advanced launcher wasn't really very stable.
however i also miss the possibility to remove the text from the icons, because i like the clean simple look without the text.
so i am waiting for someone to come up with a home app that has this ability.
Yeah, that'd be a nice app.
More Icons does it, but it'll also resize the icons considerably, so not exactly a perfect solution or what you're looking for.
Try using anycut from the market to create shortcuts first, then set the name to a space only. Gives a little black "dot" where the space is but gets rid of the text without affecting the size of the icon ....
hope that helps someone ...
helixlauncher does it, i dont know if its just v7 beta or not, but check the market for the nexus helixlauncher *there is 2 to choose from*

[IDEA][REQ] Notification Bar Temp & Batt

Hi everyone,
I've been on a search for a mod that would do this but I've come up emptyhanded on my search.
The thing I've been looking the most for is a way to include the temperature in the notification bar.
I really dislike cluttering my home screen with widgets and temp would only use 3-4 characters max. Nothing fancy, just text. Like in the attached image which I photoshopped so the basic concept would be understood. I know you could probably do it with an app but I want the temp to stick to the right of the bar.
The left side of the bar left strictly for notifications.
Does anyone know if it is possible? Is there a mod/app that does this already? Please enlighten me.
P.S. Anyone know how to get a purely text battery icon on the notification bar like on the attached image? Much appreciated.

How to Link to a different font, and not just replace a font

Hi All,
I have done a ton of searching the last few days and still have not come up with a specific answer. I am looking to link my lock screen font to a new font, and not just change or replace the font.
I am running a Moto DroidX with 2.3.3 (605) and using Go Launcher EX... just incase any of it matters.
My clock is not pulling from Clockopia.ttf, instead its pulling from the same font the rest of the system is (such as notifiers and such), and that is DroidSans-Bold. To test and make sure I was correct, I replaced the DroidSans with some wacky font, and it turned every peiece of system based font into the wacky one, clock and notifications included.
Because of this I am unable to easily change just the clock font. I wanted to replace the clock font with an invisible one so I could have a simple and easy way for my lock screen to look directly at my home screen with no clutter. I have read a few apps let you replace the lock screen, but don't really want to run anything new as a constant process just to hide a font. I'm also satisfied with the basic structure and functionality of the default lock screen minus the time and verizon banner. Does anyone know the specific config file and location where I can specify which font the lock screen pulls from?
Are there any apps, free or paid, that will help me accomplish this exact task? What I most liked about the invisible font was that it's easily reversible and all I had to do was backup the original font file. I've already bought several good utilities and am not affraid to pay for one more as long as it does what I want in a simple and reversible way... and Ideally will not run anything full time backround services.
Thanks.
Booo! No takers with some info on this one?

[Q] Hexa icons

Hello guys,
Monday i received mine Oneplus One and it is a true flagship killer. But i am not happy with the default icon pack, Don't get me wrong. I love it but, just a few apps get changed.
Now i am a designer and i would love to change the icons. But how can i change the .png of the app in the app drawer?
I have googl'd enough but i don't understand that, it is like abracadabra to me. Does someone have a really useful tut for me?
I don't want to create a new icon pack, i just want to expand the default one.
Greetz,
MrC
