Nope. You need a launcher that supports icon packs.

Xposed has a module that lets you use icon packs with the stock launcher.

Hi,
Yes, as abaaaabbbb63 said the best and easier way is tu use an alternative launcher (Nova, Apex, etc...).
Or another method is to replace manually the icons by yourself..., take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49542935#post49542935. But if you are not confident with these kinds of modifications, I will not recommend it...

Well Apex and Nova are really similar, but I use Apex. I really can't find any differences between them other than animations and other small things like that. Try them. They won't hurt our phone...if anything the animations are sped up so it will seem faster.

Because the last time that I used a launcher was when I had a nexus s and in a first time the phone seemed faster but a few day later it was very slower

Search for AppZorter Lite. It's free, with ads, or there is a paid version. It automatically sorts your app drawer out into alphabetical, install date or any other custom order. Makes Touchwiz a usable launcher in my opinion.

It was a standard feature in most custom ROMs - not in stock though. Not sure if there are any mods to get that feature (except for replacements like widget locker).

[FEATURE REQUEST] Lockscreen blur & Lockscreen notifications

The thread is pretty self explanatory. Before you flame me and tell me to use dashclock...Let's face it, dash clock is pretty buggy and doesn't integrate too well.
Anyone else.
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk
What's wrong with DashClock? Haven't found even a single bug yet. The only problem i have with it is it can't be updated as you would if it wasn't inbuilt. Plus, if you want, there's Active Display for notifications.
Already asked for lockscreen blur here
Meantime I've found this app for add blur effect on wallpaper.
Lockscreen Notifications have already been implemented from my team's work into Omni's gerrit. I'm sure it'll show up in a build soon.
Edit: fix typo

That's why I switched from omni to an unofficial nightly of carbon rom on my jfltexx a couple of days ago.
I would love to have blurred seethru lockscreen and of course lockscreen notifications on omni.
Just my 2 cents

You might want to try an app called Blurone for that.

Thanks, but it's not the same to have a blurred wallpaper rather than the actual desktop or last open app blurred.

absolutely correct that is the reason i don't use dash-lock............ i usually go with NotifyMe application which is pretty good......... but lock-screen notification are much more handy........
...... hahahaa.....

Anynews on this intégration ? The lack of lock screen integration is the only thing that keep me away from using omnirom (active display is far behind lockscreen notification).
Anylink to an official push request where I can vote ?
Thanks a lot for working on this integration.

You don't blindly vote for anything in gerrit.
You only vote for it if it works.

Please leave link to your implementation.
AFAIK the only 2 lockscreen notifications implementation in our gerrit is mine and pulser's.
Pulser's is not quite so ready AFAIK. Mine is ready.
I am not doing a commitment but it should be merged by next week.

Why you dont create a superior implementation that combines the advantages of both?
As you know - Omni is also about creating new "better" solutions to existing ones and
not only about adding stuff

I don't link active display. I can't even think of merging both.
I was however planning to merge some settings parameters like excluded apps.

Thanks!

You don't need it if you don't want it. Just drag it to remove it

Maybe you were on launcher3 (aosp), and not GEL? were you on a custom ROM?

It would have been either a rom feature or a different launcher. You can't remove the persistent search bar in the GEL launcher.

Navbar problem

Hi guys,
I'm on L09 rooted stock rom, I like having low dpi setting, but when I set lower than stock dpi, the navbar slides a little to the left (in short, navbar is not multidpi). Is there a way to fix this?

try to set size rather than dpi, it worked for me better. On lollipop i used 1440x2560 resolution for a while, text was quite a small and cant use stock launcher because it looked ugly nova launcher was better choice.
I'm on L5.1.1 emui 3.1 no xposed (cause I got my m7 yesterday and I read that xposed doesn't work, if you know of a way, tell me please), how can I change size? Newb question, I always only changed dpi
