I rooted my sensation with the hope of customizing my icons without using adw and Lpp. I love sense 3.0 I just want a little more customization.
Thanks
No i think.
Thanks for the feedback
I use a program called Folder Organizer to use custom icons on my non-rooted Sensation as I like Sense as well but don't like text below my icons nor do I like the original icons either.

Folder organizer.... so with that would I download other icon packs? Or how does that work?
This program or lighter version app organizer just has its own icon packs and also can rip icons from any soft or game

Really quick could someone tell me what I need to change icons on the home screen not the dock.
Thanks in advance.

Unpack the APK in question, replace the icon PNG, resign, install. -- Don't forget to uninstall the old.
You could also install a custom launcher and use a custom icon. -- Far easier.
Find a aftermarket launcher. Launcher pro, adw, are a couple of the good ones. Once you have these search the market for launcher themes. Most of these themes contain icon packs. Hope that points you in the right direction.

I already am using launcher pro but I haunt really been able to fine themes for it. I've seen a lot for adw but I really enjoy launcher pro.

Then change the shortcut icon. Make a custom shortcut and change the icon.
Is there a way I can change an apps icon with a theme manger type program on my phone?

some ROM's allow you to hold down an icon to change it with icons pre-installed on your SD Card.
Some icon themes can be installed through apps like ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro.
Its nice using Launcher Pro. It can install Icon Packs on the fly.
Yeah I'm familiar with launcher pro and adw themes and stuff but I want to modify icons on my htc with the sense launcher?

Try Folder Organizer lite on the Android Market.

In the apps section, it allows you to change the icon for all apps. In order for the icon to show up on the home screen as modified, you need to add the app as a "Folder Organizer item" widget.

Using folder organized worked! Good enough for now. Now just got to figure out how to get that icon on my sense 3.0 lockscreen instead of using the stock application icon it makes me use.

Hi, i've bought a galaxy s2 and have rooted the phone using android. Currently i'm using villain rom.
I've downloaded Launcher Pro Plus.
But I can't figure out how to customize my apps with custom skins. I tried press and hold to see if that works but no. Only works on the 5 bottom application! Can anyone help me how to customize the rest of the apps.
Thank you
What u mean my apps with custom skin? Did u mean custom icon for ur apps or the apps to suit with ur custom launcher?

You have to assign the icon as you add it. Long-press & add shortcut/application that way. Once the icon is on the screen, you can't change it. Just one of the many reasons I chose ADW EX over LP+.
You can also use Desktop Visualizer. If you add your apps as widgets you can change the icons later by opening Desktop Visualizer, selecting menu, then refresh widgets in edit mode. Then you can select the Desktop Visualizer widget you want to change as if you were launching it & you'll be taken to the configuration screen. When you're done editing the icons change back to normal mode by selecting the notification or menu > refresh widgets > normal mode within Desktop Visualizer.
By the way, you didn't have to root to do these things. And in my opinion, ADW (Ex) is a billion times better for customization.

If you want to change icon at ur homescreen,then Yes,can. But if u want to change on app drawer,it hard to do.
For me,im just using Folder Organizer to change icon on the homescreen only.
Other method is using adw launcher.

You can't change the icons in he app draw (easily) . But you can change any icons on your home screen using desktop visualizer

Get desktop visualizer from the android market, and an icon pack (google search).
Save icon pack to SD card, then use desktop visualizer to create your custom icons for your apps.
