Dang that's going way back most phones should have them by stock if not assuming that ur using a 3rd party launcher go into ur settings or icon settings and play with it a little bit that's how I learned most of what I do know trial and error
Or trial and succes

my phone never had it. i'm using the htc inspire 4g. and i'm running virtuous unity with sense.and i'm not using a 3rd party launcher. theres no option in my settings to modify the icons to look like that. can i tweak a file that allows me to have this?

that makes no sense. i once downloaded an app that gave the icons that grey loop around the icon's name. of course, the app drained my battery so i removed it. but you saying that i'm out of luck considering this makes no sense.

True Honeycomb Lockscreen

I had an idea on how to do a "true" honeycomb lockscreen. At http://j.mp/dXw49d (XDA forum) you must drag down to unlock. What about making the gesture "trail" the honeycomb unlock icon and then creating gestures for every direction? What I mean is making everything gone (hide unlock slider) then making the gesture trails look like the unlock icon. Then after creating the gestures in every direction then dragging the dot anywhere you can unlock. Also maybe restrict the starting point for the gestures to where the icon is. I can give you screenshots to show you what I mean.
Do you think it would work?
I think it's a good idea!
It will be comfortable to use it and it looks nice.
you talking about something like this?

Haha ya I just edited the picture. Its my idea for a sweet lockscreen. In no way is it a reality, and unless a dev takes on the idea it never will be
holy crap that's awesome. Also probably easily feasible. I unfortunately lack the ability to make this but i might shoot it over to a couple of devs and see who wants to work on this.

I tried using this launcher when the system dump got out from the nexus s 4g, the graphics....at least the app icons, look like crap so I went back to adwex.
The icons look fine when its on the nexus, but on the epic it doesnt look good.
Use two different launchers and switch between them, you will be able to tell the difference.
Icons are a little distorted not enough to not make me use it though....It runs smoother than the stock TW launcher and the TW 4.0 launcher.....I use zeam launcher too which works great but I have had no issues...the icons aren't
as crisp as above stated...but to each his own.

[Q] Anyone like my new Google Now concept?

Uses the stock wallpaper, with white transparency. Changed some elements of it, added bits from different screenshots etc.

Nice little tweak. Inverted is by far my favorite though, and easiest on the battery.

That's just one of the quick hints, when you start for the first time/clear cache.

True, it would be nice if they added a holo dark theme or something to go easier on the battery. Otherwise it's just a power hog

Go launcher?

I have used go launcher for the past few years. So naturally I installed that fist thing when I got my turbo today. But the menu button the the 3 dots stays on the screen at all times. So it blocks the bottom icons and app drawer. Anyone else have this issue. Is there a way to fix this?

Should, but I don't have that option in my go launcher. Do we have different versions? I'm on v5.09.
That was the trick it worked fine. It's not in the go launcher settings its in the system settings.
