I have a set of ADW icons activated on my HOX, but the lockscreen shows the stock icons. Is there any way to change to them?

Lockscreen shortcuts follow the the shortcuts set in the Sense launcher
So there's no way to change them?

Go back to the Sense launcher and change your shortcuts.
Either
Clear defaults for ADW so you can choose the Sense launcher when you hit the home button
or
Use the ADW setting to set the Sense launcher as the default launcher (can't remember what the setting was called)
Might need to clear defaults for the Sense launcher so you can set ADW as the default launcher once you're done
Thanks very much!

Hi,
Is it possible to remove the dockbar form LauncherPro ? Or even hide it ?
Remove all the shortcuts and turn off the dock background. That should do it.
Ok, so removing works good.
Could you also help me with changing dock in LauncherPro ? I downloaded new docks from xda, and want to replace the old one. How to do that ?
Press menu ,prefrences ,appearence ,dock background ,select custom and pick the dock you want to use from your gallery ,simples

Is there any way to actually use the space for desktop icons as the ADW launcher does (expand desktop)?
I like the smoothness of LauncherPro but I like some of the features of ADW but don't like its lag.

I've gone back to ADW for this reason. I'd have prefered to use LP but there is no way to do what you're asking with it.

Is there any way to modify the icons that are displayed on the lockscreen? I bought bettercut for that purpose, but it seems that I can't use it to change the icons on the lockscreen itself, just make shortcuts with new icons.

Menu -> Settings -> Personalize -> Lockscreen -> chose the lockscreen you want then press "settings" Form here, you should be able to change the icons.
I'm no longer running GB so the above is from memory.
Also, if you're using another launcher, you have to go back to the Sense launcher to make the change. Once you change it, you can go back to your launcher of choice.

I don't think the op is talking about just changing the shortcut but more so the icon that is displayed for that shortcut.
This is just an example but something like instead of the stock gmail icon maybe a happy face.

Hello,
I rooted my nexus s and was wondering how do I change the Icons on them? Do I have to download a ROM for a custom theme? Also I downloaded a icon package which I really like, was wondering if its possible to use them?
adw ex launcher lets you change your icons
or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389071
Use a launcher that allows you to change the icons. If you're on ICS, use Nova Launcher. If not, ADW, Launcher Pro and GO Launcher all let you customize icons.
Keep in mind though, that for apps the icons are only changed in the homescreen, but not in the drawer.
That is true for all except GO!Launcher. It changes app icons in App Drawer. Otherwise you're right those are all great options. You can however change the icon in a system folder somehow... I've seen a tutorial on the forums somewhere, but it takes work.
Nexus S - CyberGR Hybrid ICS (5), Matrix Kernel (15)
How do you change all your app icons when you download a icon pack?
Or do you have to manually use desktop visuallizer for every
-cm9-
If the launcher supports it, you just select the icon theme. ADW EX, for example, will accept most packs. As will Launcher Pro. Not sure about the ICS-based launchers though.
It works with apex, long press an icon and then edit, and press on the icon to change it

What if the launcher does not support it, such as Zeam launcher? Is there a app for it?

Some ROM's support changing icons via theme e.g. Rosie themes for sense based ROM's or themes for CM9. These icons are gets applied system wide irrespective of launcher you are using. You can even create one suiting to your needs.
So I have go launcher ex running on AOKP Milestone 6. Everytime I change the theme using theme chooser it never changes the dock, dock icons, or indictor. If I go into preference and then visual it don't give me the option to choose the theme. Its not seeing the theme chooser theme. Is this a go launcher default action? When I used nova launcher it does it for me no problem. With go launcher I can only change the dock icons manual. Even if i click on a icon to change the icon it only finds the themes installed from go launcher.
Is there a way to fix this? I like the way nova does it but I use the Facebook unread notifications that go launcher has. Nova don't have this.
u can't choose aokp theme in go launcher setting u can't use anything other than theme Chooser to change aokp themes ........I run apex launcher along with aokp rom inorder to change the icons of dock bar I just restart my launcher after applying aokp theme ........
I do get what u say but All I want to do is pick a theme in theme chooser that comes with AOKP rom and it change all the icons and apply the whole theme. With go launcher ex it don't do that. All it does it apply the main icons and change the system icons and UI. But it don't change the dock bar, dock icons, app menu icon, or indictor. I either have to purchase the go launcher matching theme for this to work or deal with it on the default system theme that go launcher ex provides. I don't like how go launcher does this. It nova launcher had Facebook unread count i would switch over to that in a heart beat.
just trying to see if theres a work around for it without buying the matching go launcher theme.
