Hi,
I've just installed the Android 4.3 cyanogenmod (cm-10.2-20130909-UNOFFICIAL-crespo) on my Nexus S and everything is ok, but I don't have the "Google" icon. This is the icon from where you can launch the google applications like gmail, play, etc. Is it in the 4.3 at all? It is very useful for me and would like to use it.
Thanks,
Did you flash gapps?..

Can I dowload the .apk for this? Is it an .apk? Thanks,
Looks like you're talking about the folder on the homescreen with all the Google apps in it?
If so, you can make your own easily. Put one app on the homescreen. Then drag another app on top of it and it will magically become a folder. You can add a whole bunch of apps to the folder in the same way, rearrange them however you like, and change the name of the folder to whatever you want.

Okay before you get all up in arms, not for dirty photos. I figure I could download photovault, but I'd really rather not, as it's not too huge of a deal.
Basically, I have a bunch of icons on my phone for use on my desktop, but I don't particularly like when I have to pick a photo for a contact or for a frame, having to scroll through my hundred or so icons.
I guess what I'm asking is has anyone found a way to hide certain folders from the gallery? Or, does anyone know how to make an icon pack, for dxtop, better home?
: )
Thanks
rename the folder to have a . in front of the name. This hides files in linux.

Yea, it should have been "blk". jk, but yea, just add a . the beginning of the folder.
When I tried to rename my folder, Vista wouldn't let me. It said, "must have a valid filename" or something like that...
any help?
Download a file manager off the market, i rpefer astro and just rename it through your phone

LOL! Yeah, most us folks in the south are still a little sensitive about that and with good reason.
Only one issue with the period method. Ironically your phone will be a little *****y. When you do this, existing icons will be hidden from gallery and still work. Just remember to put NEW icons in download or some other folder to set them, then move them to the hidden folder. Icon and other picture selection screens use the gallery program to display that image selection screen. In other words, if you put new pictures directly in a hidden folder, you cant set them as icons.
There are also some apps on the Market that will create a protected area for pictures that can't be seen by the Pictures app. And yeah, I assume this would be used for your porn collection rather than your icons.

Am I missing something or can you not name new folders on your homescreen? Not that I ever use them, but that's just dumb.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
sent from my iPhone 4...........destroyer.
add folder to screen, open folder, at the top where it says folder name press and hold, you can now change the name.
Doh!!!! Wow I feel dumb.
Mudda fadda kindly disregard dis letta

The basic Android folders are dumb but FolderOrganizer makes them amazing. Changee app names and icons too.
i am sure there is a how to for folder organizer, but i cannot figure this ish out!
i open it and it just looks pretty. i cannot figure out how to get more icons to use as folders nor, well, really i have no idea wtf i am doing.

To get more icons you'll have to download an icon pack from the market. Just do a search for icon pack in the market or appbrain.

.... yes of course, but, the folder icon not reflect the content in the folder. GoLanucher permits to create a "live icons" or a "widget"? that display the contents of folder. I'm looking for an app or widget that do the same thing.
And no, i don't install GoLaucher because is not smoot as ADWex (for me) .

I did search in the Market for 2 minutes. I tried it and think its a bit difficult but it looks to be the only one.
Folder organizer lite (or pro of course)

Why even bother manually creating folders and manually putting things in them and manually doing everything???
Just get Auto App Organizer, Its [email protected] sweet!
It will automatically organize all your apps into categories, These categories can be placed onto homescreen as folders with your choice of icon

Is it possible to use the icons from the stock Theme Store in a 3rd party launcher such as Nova?

Did you ever figure this out... I know we can change the icons but only built in one's show up
If your rooted, you could use a file explorer app like root explorer to go into data/app and find your themes appicon folder. Inside you will see a base.apk. You can copy that base.apk onto your phone and extract it, or pull it onto your pc and extract it. Inside you will see a res/drawable-sw360dp-xxxhdpi-v13 folder. The icons are in there. Save them in a folder on your phone and manually edit your icons in Nova on your homescreens and /or folders to replace icon.
I know it sounds like a bunch of work, but it really doesn't take that long. It's about the only way you can do it.
Here's what the folders for the themes look like in data/app.....

I've been trying to make a similar change. I'm using the Sense 7 Launcher and the only icon I have left is the "Apps" icon. I'd like to change it out with this icon.
I have looked in data/app/com.htc.launcher-1 and copy that base.apk to a different location on my phone. Opened the base.apk. Found res/drawable/all_apps_button_icon.xml
My question is what is the best way to convert my image to an .xml and replace the one in the base .apk so I can paste it back into the original location?
Ugg. I sure hope that made sense?

Yes, as long as all those steps are done in that order. It's okay, but yours are way better than I've seen in the HTC Themes store
Google+ in the blink feed is the only thing that isn't working yet for our phone

Thanks. My AnaKonda theme got released in the Sense themes about 3 weeks ago. I think it's in the others section. But those themes are pretty simple and don't really get into deep theming.
Sweet. I hope it gets lots of hits. Can you see how many downloads it has?

I cannot find a way to create an app duo. I go to the edge panel, and I can select one app to add it, but I cannot find a place to make a new app duo. It's supposed to have an "add" button somewhere I read... But I see it no where. Anyone else having this issue? Am I just missing something? A setting somewhere? I never had this issue on my Note10+ so I don't think I'm just being dumb... But who knows.

Then it makes a folder. I tried that. So then when you click it, a folder pops up as opposed to two apps in splitscreen.
