Gingerbread theme for Launcherpro

Does anyone have an icon pack/dock img for the new GB update? I love the look of the stock dock, but I like being able to scroll through multiple docks (a feature that only Launcherpro affords me).
Please help!

I created this one yesterday. Its yours to use if you like.
This dock matches the Gingerblur color nicely.
Edit: The image didn't attach correctly. I'll reupload it when I get home.

[Q] This should go in development but too new to post RE: Launcher Pro plus themes?

I am using virusrom airborn senseless. I also purchased launcher pro plus to use with it and downloaded a theme but when I go to the preferences menu and select a widget it doesn't give me the option to skin it. I do have launcher pro 8.4 and I can use a stock widget without it prompting me to "buy" the pro version now but still, no skinning options. I also dont have the people widget. I have searched all over to figure out what I am doing wrong but forgive me if this has an obvious fix because somehow I am missing something. I also just rooted my thunderbolt 2 days ago for the first time and this is all new to me but so far I have managed to not mess anything up even with trying new roms and kernels etc! LOL! So please speek idiot to me! Thanks!

Send an email to the launcherpro plus dev through the market.

OK. Never done that either so I didn't consider it... Still hoping someone here will have an answer though!

Alright, email sent but I am not so sure its the app. I think its something I am doing.... When I can I will post this in the airborne thread where it belongs.

You have to be on 8.5 pro to use the LP Pro Widgets and skin them. You can download the unlock key in the market or order it on fede's site. Themes are available on the market and various places online. Some are free, some are not...

Oh! OK! That would make sense then! I'll try that!
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Well, that's not the answer. I did download it from his site and I just downloaded the 8.5 version from his site and it won't install. It has to do withvthe fact that airborne has a custom launcher pro on it I think. So I think my question has changed to is there a way around this? I have even tried downloading another launcher and uninstalling launcher pro with an uninstaller to no avail.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Uugh 3 more posts and I can ask this in the right forum... OK no more post count boosting replies! LOL!
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Did you buy the pro version? Because that's what you need to do to use skins.
Sorry, I'm going to spam my own thread twice. I'll add something that actually counts as a post though... LOL! I'm thinking I can't do it because of the themed version of launcher pro. I really want pink Widgets though... :-(
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Yes. I did but it doesn't give me the option of upgrading to 8.5... There. I think that's 10 posts!

If you post this in developement it will get moved here. Developement threads are only for actual developement issues. This wouldn't be considered a developement issue.
I have used launcher pro plus and after eading your post again, you cannot skin things with it. When you apply a theme, the theme will change what it is meant to change(whatever the developer programmed it too) but you cant do any more than that. If you want to skin widgets and change their look/color. You will need a deoxed rom and/or a program that give you the ability to skin or create custom widgets and app icons.
As for the people widget, that is available with the pro plus version (why u cant access it is wierd) so you will have to ask the developer about that.
To anyone here, if Im wrong about any of this, please correct me..
Yeah, I figured that out so I didn't do it. Not trying to be a rule breaker, this is just bugging me. I think the only thing I can do is hope someone will create a more feminine theme for this rom or figure out how to do it myself!
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
You can ask the rom dev if it is possible to get a more femenine themed version.

Thanks for the explanation. I am going to give up I guess with this train of thought and maybe there will be more themes created. Its just that it seems there are mostly men on here and you all create MANLY themes! ;-D

Have you tried the theme
"LauncherPro s23 Honeycomb-Pink" its in the market for free
check here as well

Nope, didn't see it. What I REALLY want is a hot pink version of the blue airborne theme! I'd even be willing to pay for someone to do it for me if anyone can and wants to! LOL!

Try this, I'm not 100% sure I'm getting your whole picture but lets try something. download adw launcher. once that is installed tap your menu and choose the adw launcher. once that comes up and your using that. get and use titanium backup and remove the launcher pro launcher which should be part of your rom. once all traces of lpp is gone. reboot. NOW go to the market and download launcher pro and apply your key. you should now be able to modify lpp to your liking and install any theme you might like. To apply the themes to the widgets I believe you need to go to menu-preferences-LP widget settings-select EACH widget you want to theme and hit select skin and choose the one you want. Of course this is after installing them widget themes. Hope this helps you alone.

Updated Launchers?

Are there any launchers like nova updated for KitKat with transparent status/nav? I really want to keep a few bits but need more customisation standard sucks
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Yeah i hope nova prime will be update the launcher soon..

Also waiting for this, I had a sweet setup on my N4 with Nova Prime but i hate the black nag bars and status bar!
Sent email to Apex devs and they said they already working on integrating new features from KitKat such as transculency, etc

May have to buy apex then if they beat nova on this one. If anything it helps support the devs

I just found myself wondering what has kept me from buying full Apex already.
I hoping Apex will update soon because the stock icons are huge. My N5 feels like a jitterbug. but the transparent nav and status are so awesome i can live with the huge icons for now.

I ran Nova on GB and when ICS first released, Apex was first to update. So I used them. Eventually went back to Nova for one specific reason... Can't remember what it is though. I know I've tried apex since but it was still missing this mystery feature I guess because I'm back on Nova...

I've used Nova since my Nexus S but I did previously use (and buy) Apex so I'm all paid up on both! Come on, one of your get transparency in there!

What features does Nova lack that Apex has?
The only feature I've noticed that is exclusive to Apex is the ability to make the search bar look like the tablet version. I emailed the Nova developer about this like nine months ago, and he said he may decide to add it in the future, but he obviously didn't.
Other than that, I haven't noticed anything exclusive to Apex.

Last time I checked it couldn't remove app labels in the app drawer and still had wide margins on the bottom of the home screens that couldn't be reduced/removed when the dock is absent. Apex does both of those.
Apex functions I need
Infinite scroll
Scrollable app bar
Gesture launch
KitKat has redundant access to google now / search. Swipe left, swipe up from home icon, say google now on any page. Why do we need all 3?
Also I dont want to have google now 1st screen to left. I like to have mail, calendar productivity full screen widgets to left then have music, news, reading widget apps to the right. My preference is no icons on screen above the app bar. Full screen widgets look great on such a nice screen. Simplicity please

Nice, I didn't know you could do that with the bottom margin on Apex.
I thought this was a "when do the launchers get updated" discussion, not a "apex vs nova" discussion...they´re pretty much the same thing though...one is red and the other one is blue (yea i know you can change colors )....anyways...i already paid for the full apex launcher, so update fast please

Been using these w/ Apex for a while now. I'm sure they're good for Nova also. I think they are a buck fifty or something like that..........worth it IMO. Cheers!

There are so many wow! I like a lot of them, but have refrained from using them on KitKat because I like the Google stock 4.4 look so much. I'll eventually get tired of it and start using icon packs. Here are some I really dig:
- flatastico
- portal
- romow round
- click ui
- miui4
- spectre
- flatro
- tendere
- umbra
- fade
- holo
- banx
I found the theme "Glass Pyramid 3D Icon" recently that I really like.

I use Stealth personally.

[Mod Request] remove background from folders on stock launcker

The title says it all really, I'm using unicon for custom icons but putting them in folders just looks ugly.
If there is already a mod/app that can do this I'd appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks

decompile it...
search for folders drawables and make them trasparents..
search for apktool to decompile/recompile (it's easy to use) ..there's a plenty of guides on xda
e.g.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50181967&postcount=57
Or you can use KK launcher it's as close to stock as it get but with more features. And transparent folder backgrounds is one of them.
