I've been searching for a stock launcher 2 apk that works with touchwiz but each one I find the dialer dosent work I guess the dialer is modified enough that it dosent recognize it as aosp. Does anyone have a working launcher 2 for us or could modify one. Im currently unrooted. Thanks

Correct. There are actually several GB launchers on the market. I use the one by Eugene because it is almost pure stock GB launcher. The other ones have modified app drawers and other things. The only mod I've seen in the Eugene version is the notifications icon in the options menu. It's a smiley face instead of a slightly square balloon.
There is also a Honeycomb launcher available.

This is way better than the stock KD1 or GB dialer. It's called TouchPal Dialer. You can download it free from the Market
The app icon is ugly in my opinion so I use custom shortcut to use the icon I want for my home screen

EDIT: Didnt see this in the thread. Very Nice, i like it better than our stock dialer. \m/
I've been using Dialer 1 with no problems; it works pretty well over stock.

Has anyone tried this launcher by Team Syndicate in the market yet? It runs ok, but still has a few bugs.
Yes just as you said. Runs but buggy. I had it on for a couple of hours for a hoot and then uninstalled it. The bugs even caused problems when my other launcher was active.
ive actually been using it for over a week now.AND I LOVEEEEE IT!! I feel with all the CM features and the look and feel that i am already running ICS . I just was notified to udate it thru the market. Maybe they fixed some of those bugs yo were talking about. ^^^^^^^^^^.
Cool, I'll check it out, thankx.
Uninstalled. Im finding a good ICS CM7 theme and ADW is working together perfectly. Looks legit.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
I just installed a ICS ADW theme. That along with the CM7 theme chooser theme and Roboto makes the phone look exactly like ICS.

I just changed it manually. The icons are there they just don't automatically change.

All of the ICS launchers I tried included the on-screen back,home, and task button.... which I don't want or need.
I use Sonny's ICS CM7 theme from the market and stock CM7 ADW. The theme also themes ADW and icons so it looks legit. I still use the stock fonts. Happy so far.

Screen Shot?
Desktop vizualizer makes icfons at half size, with no way to fix as far as i can tell, i've told them but have gotten no reply.
folder organizer items work, but it places the shortcuts as a widget instead of a shortcut like it did in honeycomb.
so right now i have no way to add normal shortcuts to my homescreen with a custom icon.
does anyone have any apps that work properly?
I used adw for my custom shortcuts

not really a lot of help. i'm not asking for a custom launcher. ICS launcher is just fine. i just want to be able to actually make custom icons like i could in honeycomb.
i find it really hard to believe that no one running this tablet on ICS with a stock launcher is using custom icons. come on.

Have you tried Nova Launcher? Its basically the Stock Launcher, but allows for editing/resizing Icons and Widgets. Plus, you can install Icon packs for ADW and manually assign Icons of your choice to whatever you want...then resize them if you want.
Nova has a free version, and a Prime version with a few extra fun features. Both are in the Market.
yeah i've tried nova and the others, and personally i don't like/want to use them. i find the stock launcher just fine.
i'm just annoyed because for the first time in android history, i can't make custom icons work right. and i'm just shocked that it seems that no one else here is using custom icons on a stock launcher.
there are some ics roms out there already? are you rooted?

So you seem to be stuck on using the Stock launcher.
Well if you had tried Nova as you said, then I got to know, what about Nova didn't you like? I mean, Nova is basically stock from the look, and it adds the ability to use custom icons or ones from an icon pack, and allows you to resize them...which is what you are complaining about.
So, what is it about needing/wanting to use stock launcher, when Nova is stock with a few added features, one of which is using custom icons.
i don't have my TF rooted, so i lose the widgets menu, it doesn't have the tablet transitions, app drawer is 5x5 instead of 8x5. and to be honest, it's not as smooth as the stock ics launcher for me.
and honestly, i'm just still in a shock that apparently everyone is just using nova or adw.
i refuse to believe that i am the only person on this forum with an ICS transformer that is using the stock launcher with custom icons. that cannot be possible.
Using a Xoom and I'm redoing my hubs layout and the only one that it works fully with and that I want to use is ADW. Now that being said I also like the stock app drawer. Now I guess my question is, is there anyway to use the stock app drawer with ADW even if it's only a shortcut.
You can make it look like it, but you wont have the tabs.

Haven't used ADW in absolutely ages (GO Launcher is by far the best IMO) but set the background to black and set the transition to 'stack' if it's available. GO Launcher has all of this and it has tabs which you can customise the look of. Just sayin'
Try Holo Luncher based on ADW sources
Hello all,
New Galaxy S2 user here. Coming from a line of exclusively HTC Sense phones and ROMs.
I'm wondering if it's possible (and easy) to change the icons for default apps in CM9 or TW based ROMs? Specifically the "Messaging" icon - I hate the "smiley" face. Makes me feel 12 years old again.
I've done a few searches, but I'm not looking to replace the entire icon set or the ROM or theme... just one icon.

Are you talking about the app mms icon or the emoticon pack from what sound like it's the mms icon

The hard way is to download the apk, open it up, replace the images with the ones you want, repackage it, and reinstall it. The easy way is to use a launcher that allows you to change the icon. I know Apex and Nova do, not sure about any others.

Also check out "Desktop Visualizer" in the market .
But as already mentioned ....the different launchers are the best & easiest way.
Holo launcher is another one.
Good Luck.

Go Launcher as well. Go, Nova, and Apex have the ability to use icon sets made for each other.
Hmmm... going to an entirely different launcher seems like overkill, but I guess if it works...
There used to be apps on the Market that would allow you to create shortcuts with different icons (BetterCut comes to mind, but the dev pulled it from the Market entirely).
If you don't want a new launcher, try Desktop Visualizer (though I have yet to figure out how to get it to use an existing icon pack). There are a lot of options in it and it's a great program.
