Are you asking to change the stock email app present in the bottom with another email app? Am I right?

Yes how do you change email icon?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727
dock options
If you like the stock TW Launcher you can change the email icon by going into your app drawer and tap your menu button thats at the bottom of your phone. Then click edit, you'll see your dock at the bottom zoom out and move to the middle. Now you can long press on the mail icon once you feel the vibrate you can move it back to the app section. Then you can move another app you want down to the dock.
If you don't like the TW Launcher you should try Go Launcher EX , its free in the android market, and its very customizable.
Hope that helps

How do I add more app shortcuts in the box at the bottom of the screen, by default there is only 3 spaces, how do you add more?

go to ADW settings and UI Settings.
Disable DESKTOP DOTS and select SECONDARY ACTION BUTTONS.
That should do the trick
Or you can swipe the app drawer button up to reveal the dock bar.. You can add as many apps as you want to that.

how do you get the dock draw back? EDIT: nevermind, i found out, its harder to work out with no app shortcuts in the dock bar.
Also is there a way to scroll down the app drawer like the original Home Launcher?
i believe it scrolls across by default.
found solution.
go into adw settings, > drawer settings > disable horizontal drawer.

ah thanks for that, ive switched from HelixLauncher to this now
Don't no whether its just me again but, I feel that adw launcher drains my phone quicker than the standard home. Anyone else experiencing the same? Or I'm i just being paranoid about the battery life!? :0s lol
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I've been using ADW for a while, and helix before that.. And I don't have any concerns about battery drain on adw.

what about the difference of battery time between helix launcher, adw and the built-in home? before update, helix improved the battery dramatically, what about it after firmware update?

i dont use the builtin messaging app on my phone, i use chompsms. is there a way to replace the messaging icon next to contacts and applications with the chompsms icon?
I think it depends on the launcher you use.

It has been ages since I used the TW launcher, but I believe you open your app drawer, press menu, change to customizable grid, then menu then edit... then maybe just drag it down there.
If you are using another launcher, it would be considerably easier.
EDIT, yeah, just booted up, that is how you do it....
You can then change it back to alphabetical if that is your preference, the dock icons will remain the same as you changed them.

It's in the ADW launcher settings, look for the dock icons option, then just drag and drop you apps you want in the new spots.

If you want more icons to choose from, download new themes from the market or from within dock settings under themes
If you want more icons on the dock it self (eg 5 instead of 3) then you hit the soft menu key, go to more. Click adw settings. Its in there somewhere under dock icon as stated above.

So I went to ADW settings, General Behavior and this is all I see. SENSE PREVIEWS, CLOSING FOLDER, SHOW NOTIFICATION, BUBBLE FONT SIZE, HOME BUTTON BINDING, SWIPE DOWN ACTIONS, SWIPE UP ACTIONS AND DOUBLE TAP ACTIONS.
This is really frustrating.
Do you mean as a shortcut icon, lets say if you click the icon the app drawer is launched?
The instructions I gave were for ADW Launcher EX. Sorry about that. Should've asked which version.

Is there a way to make the ICS green message icon open GO SMS instead of the stock app? I like the icon cause it flows with the homescreen, and the go sms one is ugly haha. Just wondering if theres a way to keep the stock sms icon but re route to open go sms? i dont really want to install a home launcher either.
Just edit the icon. Get Gosms apk and replace the icon.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone knows of an app which can change the icons in the app drawer? I've tried many apps but all they do is change the home screen icons. Any help on how to do this would be very much appreciated.
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium
This function may be possible by switching to a different launcher, but I do not know which launcher would be capable of doing this. Usually the images in the drawer are read directly from the apk, and the apps which change the icons on the home screen can get around this by making a widget with the specified icon, which points to the application.
If there are only a few applications you want changed, it is possible to change them the hard way, by extracting the apk, changing the icon in the "/res/drawable-?dpi" folder, and then installing the new application by hand. (It will no longer be signed, so you will have to go to allow this in Settings > Applications > Unknown sources)
I don't think any launchers are capable of changing app drawer icons. Looks like I may have to do it the hard way

You can use go launcher which has option to change icons.. All U need is an icon pack..

Launcher pro can change app drawer icons,as can adw launcher. Just get an icon pack...or better still, make one. It's easier with launcher pro.

I'm using adw launcher and it can't change the icons. I have a really cool icon pack, and it changes the icons... but not all of them.. so everything doesn't match. On adw you can't manually change the icons of an individual app. I'll give launcher pro a go

Try LiveHome. With this launcher, you can manually change the icon and also label name of any app in appdrawer.
Cheers man. It won't recognise my icon pack though, but still, it's the first launcher I've seen that can change the app drawer icons

When i press long a Icon in the Drawer this comes direct on my Desktop, no Options , the Options are only at the Desktop!
Why ??
Nova launcher just got an update, now to change an app drawer icon (to a picture from gallery and hence a uzip, or from an apk) long press on the app icon in the draw. Drag it to the edit symbol. Click the app icon in the edit popup. Choose icon as desired!
