[Q] Oxygen RC6 & Zeam Launcher - General Questions and Answers

Hello all,
Just got Oxygen RC6 installed on my Desire which comes pre-installed Zeam Launcher.
I got a couple of questions if anyone can help me,
1. Is there any way to uninstall Zeam Launcher and get the default back (if there is any default)?
2. Is there any way to change the dock icons? As I've seen in many snapshots of users in the forums, the apps icons on the dock bar (i.e. Messaging, Gmail and so on) are different. Are these customizable and if so how?
Thank you in advance.

3D Drawer Settings

Hi Guys.
I just rooted my Nexus S and installed CyanogenMod 7 (Stable). Everything is working fine but I have one possibly stupid question to ask.
Before when I had stock Android the app drawer had a 3D effect which is now gone. I have looked through both the Cyanogenmod settings and the ADW Launcher settings and I cant seem to find a way to enable it.
If someone could point me in the right direction I would be thankful.
Menu -> Settings -> ADW Launcher -> (I use ADW EX so it might appear different) UI Settings -> Drawer Settings -> App Drawer style
The ADW Launcher in CM7 is different from ADW EX and ADW Free on the market.
also launcher pro has the 3d app drawer effect, and its now working perfect on cyan 7. but to answer your question, cyan 7 comes wtih ADW lanucher, not the stock launcher. so ADW prob has to turn on that setting and it will work...or use launcher pro. or push the stock launcher back to your phone.
Thanks. I downloaded ADW Launcher EX from the Marketplace since that feature wasn't available in the Cyanogenmod version.
@ RogerPodacter
How would you go about pushing the stock launcher? As I also am running cm7 but want the stock launcher.
Thanks in advance.

get launcher2.apk and put it in /data/app or /system/app/ via adb / file manager
or find frank707's mod that removes adw and puts stock launcher, but you lose a lot of customization

Launcher pro honeycomb stock style?

Hi, i have seen a lot of interesting launcher pro widgets skin and find it great but i can't seem to get to like the launcher pro interface (loved it on my phone but on a big tablet... ) So i were wondering if there would be a way to tweak (noob here) launcher pro so all the icons/app drawer could be really similar to stock honeycomb? or is there a way i could use the themed launcher pro widgets (made by bisto321) in the stock honeycomb?
Thanks a lot!
Oh and also, i have seen a couple of person having icons down their screen with only text (and more rectangular than square icons...) anyone know if it can be achieved in stock honeycomb?
thanks again

not sure you are going to find a way to get a Launcher Pro / stock hybrid version yet.
As for text icons you should be able to find a pack of icons that would do the trick - try this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797194.
other text widgets can be created with apps like this -

ive tried the first and it works great. ive not tried the second one.
I'm using ADW EX on mine and it's a huge improvement over the stock launcher.

[Q] Zoom in/ zoom out animations?????

Hi, I just bought a HTC inspire (got rid of my icrap) and I gotta say its awesome. But there is one thing bugging me. On my phone when I open applications (such as phone for example) it does this really dumb looking fade in animation. When I was at the at&t store, the samsung phones had this nice looking zoom in animation. Is there a way I can change the ugly fade into that very sexy looking zoom in?
Note: my phone is not rooted, but if needed I will root it.
anyone? Please?
Try a different launcher:
- Launcher Pro
- GO Launcher EX
- ADW Launcher
- Zeam Launcher
if a different launcher solves you issue then i would suggest Launcher Pro (as stated above) or ADW Launcher.
Oh crap, i read it wrong! You want to change the animation when opening all apps?
If yes, you can use Anim Mod *Root* from the market. You have to be rooted. There's no way around it.

[REQUEST][LAUNCHER] S7 Launcher with customizable icons

Hello everyone!
On the play store I found a lot of very beautiful free icon packs and I would use them to give a fresh look to my S7. However we know that the stock launcher does not allow to replace icons, unless they are not unloaded from the Samsung theme store. The solution would be to install a third-party launcher, but I prefer to use that stock. Does any of you have any advice? Do you know if there is any way to change the icons in the launcher stock?
Thanks in advance guys, peace

How to mod the touchwiz launcher? help needed!

Hi all,
i'm trying to modify the the touchwiz launcher as since few updates Samsung introduced a very annoying "feature" which is a huge gap between the status bar and the 1st icons row ( check this thread for pics: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/free-space-home-screen-update-t3650504)
Now my questions is, as i'd like to used the latest s7 official stock firmware, how can i mod the stock launcher to reduce the 1st row gap from the top of the screen? i have no idea where to start! any suggestion?
thanks in advance!
Hello,
The Touchwizz launcher doesn't have many options to personalize it. I would suggest you try an custom launcher like Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher (I prefer Apex because it has some options in the free version that are only accessible in the paid version of Nova, that's only my thought and taste). If I keep that Apex launcher example, in it you can set how many rows of icons vertically and horizontally, separately for portrait or landscape mode, you can set the margins on top, bottom, left and right sides of the screen etc... Well, you can fine tune to your likes.
If you want to keep the Touchwizz launcher at all cost, I'm afraid I can't help you because it lacks lots of options. It's not bad, but if you like specific set ups, prefer a custom launcher (launchers like Apex allow you to export your settings, so each time you have a new device, you can install your custom launcher on it and import your settings file and instantly have everything configured to your liking).
I hope I've been able to help you.
Have a good day!
