Ie, bigger icons and less space between them.
Yes, I did the search and read the answers and nothing that I can find. I'm happy with the icons but I want them bigger and less wasted space.
THanks

Are you allowed to bump posts which I just did?
Have you tried http://www.appbrain.com/app/lcd-density-changer/com.beansoft.lcd_density_changer ?
No but looking at it, it seems it's doing the opposite of what I want.
Thanks though

You can resize icons with launcher pro

How's that done? I can't figure out anyway in launcher pro to change icon sizes.

No you can't.
im looking for this as well.the only thing that i don like about android its icon size.yesterday i installed miui and saw that it had larger icons than stock android icon size it looks wicked.i tried lcd density changer but didnt like it coz its not compatible with some programs.widgets or something are so long way.you must resize and put the widgets one by one.
Use Desktop visualizer...?
And you can resize with launcher pro, if you have the plus version.
how do you resize icon with the plus version? I can't seem to find that option anywhere..
Download "Multicon" from the market then find out how.

You can't resize icons in LauncherPro Plus, you can only resize widgets. Besides, I think this person wants to make their icons bigger yet keep them within the restraints of a 1x1 area.
Multicon can do that. Just select one column by one row and select your app.

You could do this with either ADW Launcher or LauncherPro with some text based icons and you could probably make the clock/date with Minimalistic Text Widget.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
thats launcher pro. with a custom dock, and the text icons, all of which you can find over at the launcherpro forums. http://www.launcherpro.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=11&sid=b0cec58ec5af26bd7c5fc02540519fd7
i know that clock widget, but can't remember the name.
Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone knows of an app which can change the icons in the app drawer? I've tried many apps but all they do is change the home screen icons. Any help on how to do this would be very much appreciated.

This function may be possible by switching to a different launcher, but I do not know which launcher would be capable of doing this. Usually the images in the drawer are read directly from the apk, and the apps which change the icons on the home screen can get around this by making a widget with the specified icon, which points to the application.
If there are only a few applications you want changed, it is possible to change them the hard way, by extracting the apk, changing the icon in the "/res/drawable-?dpi" folder, and then installing the new application by hand. (It will no longer be signed, so you will have to go to allow this in Settings > Applications > Unknown sources)
I don't think any launchers are capable of changing app drawer icons. Looks like I may have to do it the hard way

You can use go launcher which has option to change icons.. All U need is an icon pack..

Launcher pro can change app drawer icons,as can adw launcher. Just get an icon pack...or better still, make one. It's easier with launcher pro.
Sent from my U8150 using XDA
I'm using adw launcher and it can't change the icons. I have a really cool icon pack, and it changes the icons... but not all of them.. so everything doesn't match. On adw you can't manually change the icons of an individual app. I'll give launcher pro a go

Try LiveHome. With this launcher, you can manually change the icon and also label name of any app in appdrawer.
Cheers man. It won't recognise my icon pack though, but still, it's the first launcher I've seen that can change the app drawer icons

Thanks ALOT. Ive been looking for a few days to find a way to change labels in the app drawer. I could find ways to password lock certain ones, but nothing to change the labels. I finally posted in 2 forums last night, asking if anyone knew ANYway to, but still no answers at 1 &was told that only thing possible is there are some apps that change icons &let u change labels on Home screens only, at the other. I'm gonna try this right now. Thanks ALOT!!!

Can it? Without using a Launcher?

When i press long a Icon in the Drawer this comes direct on my Desktop, no Options , the Options are only at the Desktop!
Why ??
Nova launcher just got an update, now to change an app drawer icon (to a picture from gallery and hence a uzip, or from an apk) long press on the app icon in the draw. Drag it to the edit symbol. Click the app icon in the edit popup. Choose icon as desired!

I don't think it would be the official launcher any more if it were modified. There is a Nova Beta which keeps the looks of the kitkat launcher (no google now page, yet) but allows you to fully customize the home-screens and app draw.

You're right it does change the grid size, but because widgets can not be re-sized in the stock launcher you can't get a fully proportioned replica. I guess if you don't use widgets and don't mind the size reduction in every app, then you could get a 5x5 by simply reducing the dpi, but... too many compromises IMO for me to call it a full 5x5.
The touchwiz launcher was modified for a different grid size for the galaxy series. Wondering if the same can be done for the KK launcher. What files would one need to modify to change this? I agree that changing the DPI is not the ideal solution if you just want the grid change on the home screen.

You have quite a nice screen density. On my Mate 7 everything looks much more zoomed in, which I don't like. For example, I get way less notification icons in the status bar, maybe only 6-7.
Changing the font to "small" didn't do the trick.
Any help on this?

Hello, i have a problem to with Noav. Many times Nova Launcher kill it self and go back to stock Launcher. Who can tell me what can i do? Other Launcher have the same problem (apex etc.)
Manage Apps, the bottom left of default-app settings, Launcher. Select at Nova overview. There you'll find all Launcher installed.
Nova launcher keeps crashing on me, for no reason, 2/3 times when i just unlock my phone with fingerprint sensor. M7 32gb amber gold.
Do you use any of Huawei's own widgets (e.g. the weather widget) ? If so remove them and your alternative launcher will not crash anymore.
I'm using the weather clock widget yes. I'll try it out. Tnx
Nova launcher crushers every time I try and place the amber weather widget, anyone has come across this?
