Wanted to install a Star Trek theme, Yes I know, but its for a bit of fun.
Was looking around and it mentioned I needed Open Home, but looking at the developers site and following the App Store link its gone.
Is there any other App that will work ?
PandaHome seems to have gone as well and a search for AHome brings up loads of 'themes' but not the actual App.

I am talking about the Application "Launcher Pro Icons"
Ok, so i like the app, and its cool that you can change teh color of the icons and stuff, but...
Does anyone know why not everything that is on the website, is in the app? Its a little disappointing that i was willing to pay for the app, but its not even updated with everything that i can already get for free on his website....??? And thanks to the amazing 15min (BS!!) return policy on the market now, i am kinda stuck.
thanks!
Hi Guys, here are some original app collections from ICS, which really works for our X10 in 2.2+ ROMZ. I've tried for me and it's all good !
We talk about :
Android Market 3.2.0 http://www.multiupload.com/1C3D7G2O9Q
Google Music 4.0.1 http://www.multiupload.com/L5YFSZPL3J
Google Maps 5.10.2 http://www.multiupload.com/FMOJZHTT70
Street View 1.7.0.4 http://www.multiupload.com/NDAON6OX70
Google+ 2.0.0 http://www.multiupload.com/55LQG5YBW4
We've got also the ICS Laucher REPLICATE app (unofficial) http://syndicateapps.com/ICS/V1.2.0.0/ICS_2.4_Launcher.apk
-> Install like normal apps.
->For those who can't get it work straight, uninstall previous version, then install the new one and it should work.
->If not,
1. Use Root explorer, go to /system/app
2. Mount the system to r/w.
3. Copy/Paste and Replace apps to /system/app folder
4. Now press & hold app and select Permissions
-tick all boxes in the first column
-tick top box in the second column
-don't tick any box in the last column
5. Reboot, you're done !
Thanks... launcher apk work very fine and smooth.
Hey, as an aside, this isn't actually the ICS launcher. It's one that has been put together to look like it. It's available in the market here https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.SyndicateApps.ICSv2&feature=search_result
Ta,
Lol epic fail...
That launcher isn't nearly as good as the actual ics one. I'm surprised it fooled so many people.
arrr...i was excited when i saw launcher...but that's not the official one.
Still like the look-a-like launcher and will probably keep it until the real one is posted...

The launcher is really convincing, you people should try it, really fast and smooth

The launcher looks nice, and it's very smooth, but sometimes it crashes in the app menu (you have to install default music player I guess). I know it's not even the real one ported, but it looks kinda' nice.
the launcher & APP is just for SE stock??
I dislike the name Play Shop and want to have Market and the Market icon back on my Homescreen. I have uninstalled Play Shop, but when I go to the Market, before long Market has updated itself to the new name and icon.
Is it possible to somehow change the name of Play Shop to Market and change the icon? Alternatively is it possible to stop Market updating itself?
My phone is a rooted Galaxy Ace.
TIA.
Decompile it, go to string.XML, change the name. It will be at first few lines normally.

Using tb you can freeze the market updater. Change the icon by extracting the apk on your computer and swap the images over. You could even use your launcher to change the icon.
Thanks for the tip, I also don't like the icon (For now I removed from the first screen )
I don't see what the big deal is, but if you're really that desperate to return to the past, here you go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543427
icon/name vs performance,and you choose icon/name,wow

rashid. fairus I didn't perceive any improvement in performance; it probably exists only in your perception. Even if I had that wouldn't make any difference. When you are my age you might not be keen on change either lol.
Thanks to everyone else.
I had it configured in 'multicon' app and after the update it stayed with same icon (no names are shown with this app)
Ok, so I have been looking for a while a way to give back to this great XDA community. So I'm deciding to put up some great apps that I have been using for a while, and really make MY Android experience a lot better. They are all GB based and the only reason I am adding them is because I have personally update tweaked them and they are great "hidden gems".Unfortunately it looks like they have lost future updates from their original developers... It would have been awesome to see these updated to a Holo style interface but since that is not the case I have done a small update to change some visuals.
NOTE: My point here is not to take credit for anything or make ANY type of fraud! I am NOT the original developer and I will be posting the original Play Store links, all I have done is make these awesome functionality apps look better for me since I use them every day. Also I NOT changed any type of function to these apps or modified any permissions to make them considered as "malware" every function code comes from the original developer not me. If you already use any of these apps you MUST uninstall them first as they are still the original version and you will get an error upon installing. Here they go:
Invenio Wire:
First up it is my face lifted version of "Invenio Carmen". This app is TRULY the best music downloader for me PERIOD, it has been on the Play Store a couple of times but has been quickly taken down. Most likely because of its ability to download YouTube videos and music from many hosts, (including YouTube). So obviously there is no Play Store link (here is their webiste though www.inveniocarmen.net) for this and if you have used it before you can recognize the difference from this one. I have changed all of the ui icons to Holo and logos!
iOS App Store:
This is my version of the awesome "Apps Explorer". I was really excited when I found this App because it pretty much lets you see all of the top apps from the iOS App store. I have matched up the rankings on an iPhone and they are pretty much spot on. I have changed the "refresh" and app icon and updated to "Play Store" and not "Market" wordings.

App Terminator:
This is my tweaked version of "Task Manager". Now I know a lot of people say task killers aren't necessary on Android, but I know sometimes when multitasking things can get a little overwhelming. The cool thing about this one is that it "ACTUALLY WORKS". It has very cool features like Auto-Kill on screen off and the ability to take you directly to your "Running" apps just to make sure the tasks have ended. I found it buried in a pile of other "Taks-Killers" and trust me I have not changed to another ever since!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...9tLnRvcG5ldDk5OS5hbmRyb2lkLnRhc2ttYW5hZ2VyIl0.
And last but not least its beastaudioEQ
Now this one is based on the infamous AwesomeBeats which is based on the infamous DSP Manager that can be found here!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732763
It actually brings out some of the best sound on any phone when used with the right drivers. For some reason though it doesn't seem to work with the Beats audio drivers found on the Play Store. A while back they updated theirs and now it forces this to close every time, so DON'T use the Beats Drivers from there. You are free to use any but I recommend the AC!D Audio from here, trust me when I say it is the best out of any:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923630
So in this app I have updated the icon and changed some of the wording to say beatsaudioEQ instead of Awesome Beats. It truly looks like a genuine beatsaudioEQ now! As an added bonus I have also included the AC!D mod directly from the OP with my new beats app already integrated, so you can flash away!
Well I hope you enjoy these apps as much as I do, now with a much better look! This is my way of saying thanks to everyone her for making Android the BEST OS in the world!
P.S: Also if you use the Chrome Browser I am posting links to two AWESOME themes made by me! The are an iOS Linen Style & Nexus 4 Jellybean style. Check them out It took me a while to perfect them.

hey people. I just made this thread to let you all know about buzz launcher which I accidentally found on market and I think is brilliant. Basically it lets you upload your homescreen so that other people can directly download it and transform their phone like yours and of course you can also download other people's homescreens as well. Everything is included even the widgets they use and icon packs and all, as direct links to the market apps either from the download homescreen section or directly from the downloaded homescreen by pressing on the faint (non downloaded) widgets and being directed to the market for dl. Anyway give it a try and let me know. Will upload some homescreens when I am home. It is amazing what you can do with a couple of clicks...
i've seen this launcher and it's pretty interesting, some say it lags but im guessing it depends on the type of phone you have....
I may try it out myself later
nice find. more of a homescreen sharing app than a launcher, it really rocks. And the buzz widget is really flexible. You can almost make anything you want out of it be it clock,weather widget or many other thing and any combo...
