I was wondering if there was a Sense ROM that had the stock Android icons instead of the Sense ones. I love Sense, but I don't like the icons. If there isn't one like that how would I go about doing this? Thanks in advance.
Find the stock icons.... use an app like Desktop Visualizer or Better Cut to use those icons with custom shortcuts.

Thanks, I'll check that out.

I've done my research can't find the answer. I like how you can use custom icons with launcher pro. I like the text look for icons. I dont like the launcher pro setup. I like how the original 7 screens are set up with 2.2 ota. Using launcher pro you can't get the widgets like on the original screens. I have each page set up the way i like and have found no way to do it using lp.
I would like to know if there is a way to replace the icons with the text in the original 2.2 ota. Is there an icon changer program that allows this?
How do you make custom icons?
All help appreciated. Thanks, Eric
I've used ADW and launcher pro both and they both have a custom shortcut option. I used it to change my messaging icon recently.

The best quick and easy way is adw, better home, LP etc. other than that. Pull every apk from your phone and edit its icon and push back.

I use the custom short cut option works great for my needs.
Its much easier to use something like LauncherPro. Its a great app and is completely customizable.
If you go with the LauncherPro method... check out the customizations and icons and what not here
I did a quick search and didn't find anything, so...
I'm looking for something like the stock clock that comes with the phone. And I don't mean the clock/weather widget.
I did a full backup before flashing UndeadK9's AOSP on Sense ROM, but I am unable to restore the clock from that.
There are plenty of alarm clocks in the Market with the same features, but I'm really liking the interface on this one. Instead of the numbers with a +/- above/below them to set your alarms and timers it has wheel you spin.
So is there a clock like that on the market?
I included fancy widget which has a sense like clock in my senseless rom.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that is exactly the clock I'm not looking for.
If you load your Sense on Crack ROM there's a black clock icon. It's just a clock, and it comes with the stock ROM AFAICT. Very minimalist, but I love the way it sets the timer and alarms, as well as how sleek it looks.
I can't seem to restore it from my backup to your AOSP on Sense ROM, but it works fine in Sense on Crack.
Hi guys,
this can be a stupid question, because I'm kind of green in this.
My question is if it's possible to change homescreen matrix propositions with standard stock launcher?
For example in stock rom, I have stock 4x2 Sense clock with weather and 2x4 icons. Would it be possible to have the clock + 3 another lines or so?
I'm sorry in advance if there's a threat about this, but I wasn't able to find it...
Thx.

Just use ADW launcher or launcher pro.
Then you can set it to 10x10 for instance
If you go with ADW launcher will you still be able to use the Sense widgets?
No, htc sense widgets will not be available, but search market and you will find lots of other whitch can be better.

like beautiful widgets
So no chance to achieve this without changing the launcher?
Somebody? ;-)
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.

Beat me to it after double checking some of my sources lol

For a full change decompile framework.res or systemui.apk one of these 2 change icons recompile sign and reinstall

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.
Hello All,
How can I get my lockscreen to show date and time like this?

Hi,
Do you mean lockscreen or homescreen?
Look in the market for "wp clock design live wallpaper"
Yes I meant lockscreen.
Will look for the wp clock design
Thank you
If its lock screen it would be harder, but depending on the ROM you can find various designs closest to the one you're looking for.
Ya lockscreen for sure, been looking through the forum and the playstore for hours and still nothing.
I'm on ViperS ROM
It looks to me a homescreen. If so it is minimalistic text

Yep I can find homescreen like that but not lockscreen
Maybe Widgetlocker will do the trick. It replaces your lockscreen, and allows you to add widgets to it.
Thanks ridder215215,
Looks like that is going to be as close as I can get so far. Widgetlocker has security issues.
hy Pamela,
install this rom if you stuck on bootloop read this
after install open settings > lockscreen
ripkid666,
That ROM has looked interesting for awhile. At this time I need more stability as a daily driver.
I really dont want to switch ROMS just for the lockscreen.
Thanks
Hello All,
Just checking in for possible developments
I have found some success with this setup:
1. Install Widgetlocker
2. Install TypoClock
Use the TypoClock as a widget on the Widgetlocker screen
