How can I reset all the icons back to their defaults so that I can change them all at once when applying an icon theme?
In the past I changed a few of my icons manually because the icon theme I was using had an icon I didn't particularly like. Now, whenever I change my icon theme it will reskin all my icons except the ones that I manually set. Even if I set them back to their defaults manually they do not reskin when I change the icon pack again. I'm using Nova Launcher and absolutely love it, but I don't want to have to change a bunch of icons manually every time I use a new icon pack just so they match the other icons in the pack and not the one I had previously set.

There is a setting for that in the same menu where you choose an icon pack. You can access it by tapping the three dots in the upper right corner.

Thanks, that worked well. I guess I've never use the Nova app itself for that part of the theming. I always just open the icon pack and apply from there.

Looking for an app to launch apps/shortcuts from the notification bar.
I have the recent tasks thing on my pull down, and I'm looking for something like that but where I can pick my apps/shortcuts. (IE, pull down the notification bar and one ONE line have 4+ icons of my favorite apps. Slide the bar left & right for more apps).
I don't want a program that I can launch from the notification bar that in turn pops up a folder of icons (Folder Organizer, App Launcher both can do this). That's one click too many.
No home button or hold search either - if I wanted that, I'd go back to Power Strip
Thanks for any help. Having no luck in the market again. I'm starting to think it's simply not do-able or I'd have found it by now.

ToggleBar is the closest I've seen.
Thanks, that's one I have not seen. I like how it's a combination launcher/toggle/contact. Needs some work. Would like to know why we have to do the extra step (pull down bar, launch this app, launch app you actually want to use).
Also suffers from ugly icon on tray (I guess I can modify the apk). Also wonder why you have to have an icon (an invisible square is no help either) - other apps don't need to have something in the bar to be available on the drop down.
Will try this one out.
Currently using Calendar in Status bar Trial which I have set to launch Organized Drawer - but at least the icon is functional (showing the day & date).
Also - noticed an app called ncut, but crashes on my phone, possible gingerbread problem.
So I have been trying out a few themes by downloading them through the gummytoolbox. Is there a way to reset all of the icons back to the default colors? I have been flipping through the settings and don't see any way to adjust them.
I can't seem to remove the blue line and settings button above it, which are at the top of my screen when using adw ex on ics (slim build dated 20 Feb). I've followed the directions from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494521
but they don't work for me. Also tried asserting a feature to do it but to no avail. But what does happen is when I use the button or gesture to hide the status bar while it stays, when I press the menu button the menu options appear with 2/3 of it disappeared off the screen. I prefer adw as it has more useable screen realestate rather than just the square area for widget placement you get using trebuchet. Are others finding the same thing? Any fixes?
And while I'm asking, if I can't remove the status bar, is there any way I can place some other things in there? Like add the open apps button in there? I can't seem to find a way.
I guess I'm trying to make the top of my screen similar to the first image you see when you look at adw launcher ex on the Android market.

Same issue here. I have tried using the hide status bar shortcut but it does nothing. The blue line is driving me crazy to the point of not even using adw.
add me to the list.. having this issue on a couple of my devices.. I think the blue line/bar is called a "action bar" not a status bar? but i dont have the option to hide the action bar as some threads describe.. such a waste of precious desktop space.. if i find a fix ill post back..

Try in rom control- battery. I only had blue line and not those buttons. Anyway I changed the colour to black to match my home screen. The line just represented the battery on mine
If your on a ICS from then you need to change DPi to 120 or else ADW thinks its on a phone. Don't use ADW anymore since Nova and Apex since both are HW a celled and last time I checked ADW is not.

Since Hyperdrive RLS13 came with Icon Changer Free, I've done some customizing to my home screen. Everything has gone well up to the point where I wanted to change the icon for the 'Apps' icon. There's no such item listed via the Icon Changer Free menus - is there a pretty quick and easy way to change this icon? I'm using the Neon Blue GO Launcher icons if that matters.
I'm also trying to figure out if it's possible to change the icons used for the lock screen. My best guess at this point is that I'd need to pull the apps onto my PC, change the icon there permanently, then re-load them to my phone? Is that correct?
Thanks in advance for any help!
One new thing to add. I removed the icon names with Icon Changer Free, yet when I reboot, all the icon names are back. Any fix for this as well?
I'm trying to create some transparent text icons, but it always shows the black box behind it. Anyone else using this app?

I'm having the same issue, always get the black background even though I selected "background --> none" in the preferences... Anybody have a solution?
Thanks!

i ended up having to click on the icon i want to change (for me by long pressing the icon in NOva), go to the tab to customize background, click on the color swatch, then change the transparency. i have to do this for every single icon, saving the style won't do anything from what i've seen.
