Show Launcher in App Drawer?

Is there any way to show a launcher in the app drawer? I would like to get ADW to show so I can make a shortcut in Launcher7. If I can't do it through an app would it be possible to do it through editing the apk? If yes, then what would I have to change?

i want to know 2

I don't know if this helps but go launcher has an icon in the app drawer, it doesn't have much use but it's possible to put an icon there, if i click it, it just goes back to the main screen because the launcher was launched...

How to change icons on Nexus S?

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

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.

Any way to change icons?

I love this phone, but I am not that crazy about the icons on TouchWiz. Is there anyway to change icons without being on a ROM that has the theme chooser?

you cuold always try apex launcher or another launcher also!

APK Edit will allow you to change the icon and/or application name for any program... very easy to use.
see this:

OK, a lot easier way to do this is to download "Apex Launcher" or "Nova Launcher" from the play store. They both support icon packs. There are many free ones out on the play store (stock jellybean, motorola icons, lg icons, google icons, touchwiz icons...etc)
Launcher:

Icons (a bunch):

Sweet, thanks for the response guys that helps a lot.

Icon changer works for me:good:

I've been using Apex launcher for a while now an I really like it. The best feature is letting me change the home page grid size. I really prefer to have 5 x 4 instead of the default 4x4.

I find GO Launcher EX to be an excellent launcher as it has some many plugins available so you can customize every aspect of the O/S to make it look exactly like you want. It also has a complete widget series for further customization. I like the custom calendar, weather, and notifications it provides. Also there is a really cool SMS text message app that add many custom icons to your text messages.

[Q] Launcher won't boot

My S3 won't boot after a casual reboot, I'm using Nova Launcher and it gets to the part where it asks me to choose which launcher I would like to use, whether touchwiz or Nova launcher, and after I select my screen goes dark, with the only thing visible and responsive is the notification bar on top.
Mind you, I can fully access settings, notifications bar, the task manager... I just can't get the launcher to show my wallpaper or any icons on the homescreen, whether docked or not.
I can provide screenshot if necessary, please save my phone XDA!
Edit - Nevermind guys, I fixed the problem by myself, you can close the topic! Thanks anyways!
