Changing icons - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hey,
I want to change my app icons, but not with apps or launchers.
I remember I found a Icon folder with a root explorer, but I am not able to find it again....

If your'e wanting to change how the icons show up in your app drawer, you would have to go into each app's framework-res.apk and change the icons from there. If your wanting to change how the icons show up on your home screens, you could use BetterCut to create shortcuts that allow you to choose the icon.
if you re-install the rom youre using, it'll revert everything back to stock. I posted a few different versions with and without icons

How to change widget icons?

Hi,
I just installed a great widget "Brightness widget" but I don't like the widget icons, it has 3 icons that change accordingly with the screen brightness.
I found only a software with which you can change the application icon but not the widget icon.
I opened the apk file with winzip and browsed and I found the icons but if I replace them the apk won't install anymore on my phone.
Can someone give me any guidance if it is possible to change the widgets icons and how? I want to change only the widget apk if possible.
thanks and sorry for the bad english
At present, it is not possible to change the icons of widgets in any Android version by using the phone, as far as I know.
actually I was able to change the widget icon. The only thing I had to do is to sign the modfied .apk with zip signer 2.
You previously mentioned that you found an app, what app was it?

Where are Nova theme icon packs located in phone?

I used to be able to extract the PNGs from icon themes because Notification Toggle can't change icons unless its saved on your gallery, but recently they changed locations and I cant find them. I've been using root explorer trying to search for the folder location to extract the PNGs of certain icon packs (like Nox for example) ...anybody know the location of these icon packs?
they dont show up under system/app or data/app\
EDIT: never mind found it under MNT/ASEC/
mods please delete post

Anyway to change specific icons on homescreen?

I have widgets and icons on my home screen that I'd like to change the icons for. I don't want to change the icons for the app itself.
Some of the widget are of the same app that do different things (home automation) and I want to have different icons for each.
Anything I can use for this? Tried awesome icon changer but didn't work.
