Problem changing icon image - Android Apps and Games

Hi there,
I have been using Nova launcher for years without problems. Yesterday I bought a Galaxy S9 +, and of course I also installed Nova launcher. But I have a problem with changing the icon of the application drawer on the dock. I can change the icon, but if I confirm, the icon does not change. It always remains the stock icon. I can change the other icons in the dock without any problem. Only that of the application drawer can not change. It makes me crazy because I have always been able to change this on my previous smartphones. Can someone help me?
Thanks!

[Q] Desktop VisualizeR Icons Disappearing

I've been using Desktop VisualizeR w/ ADW on an unrooted original Moto Droid using Froyo 2.2.3
I've read about REDRAW problems, but out of the blue, my DV icons DISAPPEAR completely from the homescreen.
Shutting down & rebooting will get them to come back again but with a delay with ADW responding. Then things seem to be normal again - until it happens again.
I really like the larger Icons w/ DV & hiding the dock w/ ADW.
Does anybody know of a solution for this problem?
Thank you in advance.

Adw launcher and ics screen issue?

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.
I'm lonely...

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.

Changing the Applications Icon

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?

lock screen and status bar queries

hi, apologies if this has been posted before but it's really driving me nuts. 2 days ago everything was fine: i'm simply using c-locker as a lock screen. then yesterday i noticed there was another lock screen which can only be unlocked by swiping up. the status bar also changed. whereas before the bar went all the way up to the edge, now there's a black bar. the phone signal moved to the left side. to view notification icons (like an envelope for sms), the sound would come but the status bar would stay the same. by clicking on the status bar only then would the other icons appear and the status bar would go to the original (be all the way to the end of the screen). i'm still googling about but so far zilch.
solved!
my wife's phone is a nokia 1020 (we bought it as she loves the camera). it rang last night and she was in the gym. so i answered it and afterwards i noticed that the lockscreen and the status bar were very similar to the one i was having issues with in my edge. so i went over to my edge and uninstalled windows 10 launcher. i had previously installed it because my wife wanted to see if i could replicate her phone interface. so i installed but never used the launcher. when the edge did an ota update, windows 10 launcher was part of the other apps touched. whatever updates happened, the launcher forced it's lockscreen and status bar profiles on top of my existing setup. so, in case you plan to install the win10 launcher, maybe it's best to use it on it's own.

Reset Icons back to their defaults in Nova Launcher.

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.
