Well that was a waste of $3.00...when I try to edit an icon I get the following message.
Unable to edit shortcuts for Android Home, if you are editing Open Home, you MUST install Open Home first. The easy solution is just uninstall BetterCut and then reinstall it (without uninstalling Open Home)
I do not have open home. I am just trying to edit my icons.

BetterCut is 1.99, does not require open home. Not sure what you're referring to.

$1.99 plus tax. When I run the program and select create short cut that is the message that I get.

I get the same message when trying to use bettercuts. Quick question are you using launcher pro or adw launcher?

I have the ADW Laucher and used that but got that error. I also used HTC Sense and got the same error.

for those of you getting that error, you have to add the shortcut as an activity (give it a minute to load the activity) then select the one you want. Bettercut doesnt play that nicely with Sense, but you can get everything to work.

Thanks for the reply. I did not know that you had to create them new. I thought you could edit the ones that you already had. I have created the new ones and just deleted the ones I did not want. Love the icons.

Ok now I have created new icons and when I try to use them I get the message the linked program is no longer installed on your phone....I long held on the main screen selected short then picked better cut then selected activity and scrolled down until I found messages and that is the one that I used. I just clicked on change icon and picked a new icon. What am I doing wrong?

for the apps that it gives you that message (its something to do with HTC programs) you'll have to install folder organizer lite. Use better cut, select other shortcut (or whatever the option is) then select folder organizer item, then go to apps and select the app you want. You'll then be able to select the icon and it should work. a lot of hassle i know...but it works!

Thanks alot. Worked perfect with the exception of Messages. I go through these steps and after I create the shortcut and go back to the main screen the new icon is there for like 3 secs then it reverts back to the orignal one.

new addition, the GRFXP version of the DroidX wallpaper!
enjoy!

Man I love that background thanks alot.

Silly question, but which home screen replacement is it that you're using in your pics?

[THEME][LauncherPro] Sense-esque for Launcher Pro

So Since launcher pro doesn't really lend itself to being completely switched to the HTC Sense layout (though it's doable), and I prefer being able to have more than 3 items on my dock anyways, I decided to make a skin Based on The Sense bar that works more in the launcher pro environment. the borders between buttons have been removes, and there is less curve, so more icons will look ok on the edges. Still I usually have to scale down any icons I use though. Anyways, here's some screenshots.
The dock was made based on this file Credit to the original author.
I have included a few of the wallpapers I made that go well with this theme, and the original HTC Sense wallpaper scaled for the DX.
I HIGHLY recommend "Wallpaper Set and Save" to apply wallpapers, as it doesn't resample images at all, and gradients will still look smooth.
I am using Webst3r's SenseX 2.2 beta theme for the notification bar and stuff.
Link
Also I am on 210 display density using LCD density changer.

Some of the launcher icons included are from scratch, some were modified from launcherpro's default icons.
This one is using the Labradorite.png wallpaper that I made, and the homescreen switchers for two of the shortcuts.
UPDATE V02: All the same icons the LP has by default are included in this in a form factor and style to fit.
The zip file includes a PSD file for the icons I have made already, in case you want to see my scale and make your own icons.
DOWNLOAD v02 This link is hosted by me. Please try it before using the attachment file as if there are updates to this, mine will be up to date first.

damn that looks great. actually tempts me to finally go through with deodexing (makes me hella nervous).

only the notification theme needs deodexing. the LP part will work fine without.
Thanks btw!

Looks great May use it on my N1. Shouldn't be an issue.

Thank you sir im gonna use this on my droid

Going to be updating this in a few minutes with all of the icons that launcher pro has, in form factor for this dock.
EDIT: The link now points to the newest version with the new icons.

haha yea i know, but i liked your setup so much that i went ahead and deodexed because i would like the same exact thing on my phone.
this is where you installed the theme from, right?: http://alldroid.org/default.aspx?g=posts&t=770
right now im on the early leaked froyo, is that what you're using? a lot of ppl have posted recently saying they're getting stuck in bootloop after trying to install the SenseX theme and i think it may be because of the OTA Froyo update. so being on the leaked froyo i'm hoping this theme still works. i'll go ahead and apply the theme based on your response.

well against my better judgement i went ahead and installed the SenseX theme lol. i only installed services.jar and framework-res.apk since i'm gonna be using your LP dock and didn't want the reskinned widgets. worked great, looks great. thanks a lot!

thanks, again!

How do you install this theme on launcher pro?? im lost

I would like to have this theme installed but I have absolutely no idea how to install a launcher pro theme? Please help
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

hey how do you do that background on the app menu? thats pretty cool

thumbs up for the theme and thumbs up for listening to Junip
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Download the files
2. copy all the files to your SD-card
3. once installed launcher-pro press the menu key and select "preferences" --> Appearance Settings --> Dock background --> custom --> select the "dock" folder you previously uploaded to the SD-card and select the only file which is there: Sense-esqueDock.png
4. Long click somewhere in the dock for changing a shortcut --> decide which shortcut you want to use --> custom icon --> select one of the images you previously uploaded.
5. play around with the settings if you want to have scrollable dock: press the menu key and select "preferences" --> dock settings --> Number of docks and eventually --> Enable loop scrolling.
Hopes this helps..

[GUIDE] How to customize the new ADW Dockbar [UPDATE]

since i searched this and asked in the QA section and no one was able to answer. i figured it out myself and though i would post a little guide here for everyone to find.
ADW 1.3.2 has been released and now you can customize the original dockbar as well. with the new version you are now able to move the center app drawer button anywhere you like. you can even remove it as well.
Requirements are ADW 1.2.0
1. menu > settings > adwlauncher > UI settings
2. make sure that there is a check next to Dockbar
3. return to home screen and then long press on the app tray button and then drag it up until is disappears
4. now you should have completely blank dockbar at the bottom
5. long press on your screen as if you were adding a widget > select custom shortcut
6. from here pick you activity, once you have chosen activity such as an application like gmail, press the icon and select you custom icon
7. when finished you will have a shortcut to your app you selected, select the app and drag it to the blank dockbar and whala custom dockbar icons in ADW
you can place as many shortcuts as you want into the dockbar and it becomes scrollable just like LPs dockbar. ADW currently allows 6 dockbar icons visible as opposed to LPs 5. with about 15mins of your time you can have customized ADW like mine below. also, if you customized dockbar disappears and you see the original dockbar, just simply long press on the app draw and swipe up and your customized one will return.
with the release of 1.3.2 and being able to customize the app draw icon you can not have 2 seperate fully customizable dockbars. the primary 5 icon drawer and the swipeable scrolling one below.
1. go to menu-settings-adwlauncher-ui settings-main dock style; select 5 icons
2. follow the instructions above to customize the dockbar
3. swipe the main dockbar up to get to the scrollable dockbar and customize it.
4. swiping up and down between the two dockbars is pretty self explanatory.

you need the new 1.3 version of adw for this. if you already have, it all you have to do is create a custom shortcut like in the op and drag it to the original app drawer.

"ADW 1.3.2 has been released and now you can customize the original dockbar as well. with the new version you are now able to move the center app drawer button anywhere you like. you can even remove it as well."
Great. Any suggestions as to how to get it back when you've dragged something over it inadvertently?

[HOMESCREEN] Cover Flow Home screen

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
ok so this is a little guide on how to get the 'cover flow' style homescreen. first off, i think some of you (ok well a small minority) will be happy to know that it doesnt require root. all you need is launcher pro or adw luncher and multipicture live wallpaper. now there is a drawback to this method, which is you cant change your wallpaper unless you edit the .psds provided. oh and just for the record i am currently using miui rom but it is not needed. ok so here we go.
1) download the coverflowwallpapers.zip containing the wallpaper for each page
2) download either adw launcher or launcher pro from the market and apply as default home screen
3) get rid of the dock bar and icons from the launcher. it would be a good idea to set a swipe gesture to show the app drawer so you still have access to all your apps. i would also recommend changing the number of home screen rows to 5 to compensate for the row lost due to the thumbnails.
4) download MultiPicture live wallpaper from the market.
5) go to select wallapaper/live wallapers/then select multipicture and then press settings
5) using the images you downloaded from this post and change the wallpaper for each page. (seeing as im a nice guy i numbered them for you)
6) finally, got to the transition type and choose your favourite one. i chose to go with wipe as it makes the thumbnails look like they are rotating but some of the others look great too.
so there it is. hopefully this tutorial isnt too hard to follow. also if you have your won ideas/modifications, post them here cos i wanna see them too
heres a crappy video of it in action
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx0uGYOUWR0

thanks for doing this! trying it now.

2) download either adw launcher or launcher pro from the market and apply as default home screen
How'd you make it default?

Hit the home button and then a prompt will show your available home screens and launchers. Check the radio button on the bottom of the pop up and select adw or launcherpro. You can clear the "default" if you decide to do something else and not use LP or ADW.

after downloading a new launcher from the market, press the home button and it should give you an option to which launcher you want to go to. check the make default option and then press the launcher you want.

ok, how do I get rid of the dock bar and how do I set a gesture for getting it back?

The way I am doing it is by replacing the icons with a blank icon. Essentially the icons are still there, but invisible and I can still assign a swipe up gesture if I wanted to.

You probably don't want to use the term "cover flow" as I would be willing to bet Apple has a trademark on that term.

2 things :
1. first and foremost, thank you for actually listening to us and making this available for us to use.
2. since no one is really taking the initiative can you make several different walls and icons for us?
Thanks,

sorry I simply don't have the time to do that. this setup was initially made for me but some people asked me to share how I done it so I did. I knew not everyone would like the wallpaper and/or icons which is I why I uploaded the .psd file. there's only so much I can. also it doesn't seem like many people are interested but that's cool as i know this kind of setup is not for everyone.

Don't be discouraged. I've liked this setup since I first saw it--it's very different. If I hadn't just rehauled my own homescreens, I'd be slavishly copying yours.
I do have the time and tools to make something out of your .psd too, so maybe when I get home (i.e. to the PC with photoshop installed) I might try my hand at it.

[TRICK] Hidden App Launchers (Ninja Apps)

I might be late to the party but here we go anyway:
HTC Evo: Invisible App Launchers (Ninja Apps)
The Video Tutorial:
The Text / Image Tutorial:
What you will need:
- An HTC Evo (probably works on other phones, but I don't care about other phones)
- A Custom Launcher Program (Launcher Pro & ADW EX are what I have found this to work on)
- A Transparent Icon (You can download this one)
- A Wallpaper With App Images built into it (You can use this one)
The process:
Here we have our main screen...you guys are lucky I just switched to the cm7 RC1 and did a full wipe otherwise you might have had to wait for the apk release.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Basics first, we need to switch to a wallpaper that has App images designed into it...the one I have is really nice but there are others out there. Look.
After that we will switch to the first screen we will be adding our hidden launchers too. On this screen you will long press to bring up the "Add To Home Screen" selector. Select the "Custom Shortcut" and then choose "Pick Your Activity." From the next screen you choose what kind of Activity you want, an Application, Music Playlist, etc...After making your selection. Choose ok and your launching icon will be added.
Repeat the above step until your icons cover the launching area of your desire. You can go into ADW or Launcher Pro settings and edit the number of columns and rows on the screen. This will help somewhat with making icons cover the icon area from the wallpaper. For mine I left it at 6 rows and 4 columns.
After all your icons in place it is now time to make them transparent...Long press over the icon and in ADW you will select "Edit." press the icon in the edit screen and choose the transparent icon you downloaded earlier in the tutorial. Repeat this process until all of your icons are transparent.
YOU'RE DONE...
Some tidbits and problems you may run into:
- They are kind of invisible but I still see the icon text... You need to go into the settings for your Launcher Program and select "Hide icon Labels."
- I can't get the icons to fit right over the images... This is not an exact process and will requires some trial and error, as well as, tinkering on your part. Some things you can adjust to help this: Adjust your wallpaper to different sizes and display areas, Adjust the amount of columns and rows displayed on your screens.
- Where can I find more wallpapers like this? My best advise is to look on the internet, it's how I cam across it. I do make custom wallpapers, but, they are not free ($1.99) donations.
If you have any more questions please post them and I will address them as timely as I can.

this is awesome thanx

Umm, there's nothing new about this. Lots of people have posted themes that use this method. I've been doing this since last summer. This might be useful as a tutorial on the basic setup of this method. Also, of course it will work on any phone. What is the apk file going to do? Maybe I'm missing something...

great
Wow! I hadn't heard of this before, but i love the idea and the tutorial. THANKS!!! I'm gonna have to scour for more wallpapers. Is there anyway to take the wallpaper you have in a layered version and remove a few of the images and swap in a few of my own?? ex. i would take out the facebook logo and put a cartoon pic of my wife/kids for my quick dial apks. etc... anyway, thanks for the heads up!!

EDIT: btw, what widget are you using on the wallpaper that show the 4 day weather icons? (or what widget and theme or icon pack)...thanks in advance

Wouldn't the definition of a donation be giving to a public and/or charitable cause? You aren't offering the wallpapers for free to the community, then allowing people to donate to your cause. If that isn't the case, it sounds like you are charging for a service, not encouraging a donation? Unless you plan on offering the wallpapers to all once the initial request for a custom donation inspired wallpaper is received?

I've been looking also for something like this for quite some time also, as I've been using the blank icons with wallpapers to some extent already, just not all over. Just along the edge like this:
The full setup is attached in the Scrolling 2.0 Theme in my sig which also has links on how to set it up from the original author. I also created some wallpapers other than the honeycomb one. PM me if if you would like to check them out.
Its hard to locate wallpapers with the icons pictures built in as I'm not sure what to search for exactly or what the "official" name of this type of wallpaper/setup is.

I could be wrong about what he's using, but you can achieve the 4 day weather forecast like that with the Beautiful Widget's Beautiful Weather Widget. You just need to download that skin, and then disable todays current weather.
I achieved the same widget look using the Beautiful Weather Widget in the screenshot above. Just changing the skin (the skin you would be looking for to achieve that effect is called BrushedInk&Black), hiding the background, and hiding the current weather. Beautiful Widgets is a paid app, but its worth it for the couple bucks it costs, it looks great and is highly customizable.
