[Q] How to correctly apply a new theme? - HTC Incredible S

How do I correctly apply a custom theme? I'm running CM7, and I downloaded the Honeybread theme. When I want to use it I select it with the CM Theme Chooser, and after the reboot it only changed the icons and stuff. I would like to have the 'app bar', at the bottom of every homescreen, to be changed to the one from the theme. How do I fix this?

Go to settings > adw settings and you can change the dock in themes. The cm7 theme chooser only effects icons and status bar as well as a few apps menus.

Thanks for your help, but the in the ADW settings I can only choose the ADW.Default theme. Where do I have to place my theme apk files?
Excuse me, found out that there are special ADW themes. Thanks!

Excerpt from same question asked by me

Question: how do I set the dock bar to use downloaded dock bars instead of the adw dock bar? When I set it to no icons it takes away the dock bar and when I set it to anything else the dock bar displays the slots for the launcher icons to go in as + signs .... confused.

,Im using adw ex launcher but think its similar to adw.
1. Adw settings / theme Preferences / Main dock / Custom / adw dock catalog
2 Choose your dock / goto Ui settings/main dock/main dock style select example 3 icons.
3.Now goto homescreen longpress icon in dock choose edit click icon select picture and select adw docks catalog choose your dock again voila its gone....and you have a clean dock.....hope it makes sense.....

That's pretty helpfull too, thankksss!

Huh, I'm trying some themes now, but when I change the theme, actually only the background changes, including some icons. I've selected the option to Use theme icons. When I drag the statusbar down, the wifi widgets etc have a strange white glow wich won't dissapear and the place down under those widgets has an opacity of like 20%. I guess this is a setting from the theme, but how do I change this?
Edit: The icons aren't changing too, just like the battery and wifi indicator. The only thing that changes when I change my theme is the background.
Juist noticed that the dock image is changing too.

Maybe Theme Chooser App which is preinstalled?

launcher pro dock icons

Im using firefly 2.0.4 and it came with launcher pro installed already. The thing is about 3 of the dock icons are different from the rest. Where can I find the regular dock icons that come with launcher pro and how do I install them?
great question i would like to know the same thing as im also on firefly
If you long press on the dock icon it will bringup a menu. You can select change icon and either launcher pro or custom from that point.

[Q] Motoblur Dock

I have a Motorola Defy, but I'm using a different, non-official ROM, that comes with Launcher Pro. My question is, if I can switch my dock to the Motoblur dock, since I really like it.
Thanks for your answers.
Can't be done. The dock is tied to the launcher app, therefore you must use Motorola's launcher app, not launcherpro.
Also please post in the suitable section next time. This is a subforum for themes

Thanks for the answer, and sorry for posting here..
If your using Launcher Pro you can just get a dock that looks like motoblur and apply it in the preferences.
I would check out HELauncher. When installed, press menu, and click customize. Navigate to Blur or Ninja (not sure which runs on the Defy) and press Apply. The motoblur style is from the newer versions, not like the Devour and Cliq.

Yeah but the problem is, that in Launcher Pro you can only use their own icon for the app drawer..
I'll try the HeLauncher, thanks
Edit: Nevermind, I succeeded doing that with Launcher Pro, I took the dock that lesa gave me (thanks lesa) and in the 2 right spots I put contacts applications with a 72x72 icon that I made, that is actually nothing, a png file so you cant even see it, same with the 2 left ones and the middle
Thanks!

Terranalon, please, write in few words how did you succeed with this dockbar in LauncherPro :good:

Honeycomb Style

Hi,
is it possible to get the Honeycomb-Style (Theme, Icons) without root?
Or is it neccessary to root the phone and use CM?
EDIT:
I found the "Go Launcher EX" with "Honeycomb" but I don't like the other features like switching the homescreens.
Try honeybread for the cm7 theme chooser:

Ah okay.
So rooting my Nexus S is necessary.
There is also a honeycomb theme for launcher pro plus (don't need root for that)

To change the status bar, etc. you need root, you can either use a .zip and flash the theme, or use a ROM which supports the themechooser. This isn't required though as you can create your own theme easily via UOT Kitchen.
My suggestion is:
1. Root your phone.
2. Install either Oxygen or CM7, both includes the themechooser.
3. Download and apply Honeybread HDPI Theme.
4. Enjoy.
This way you won't have to mess with the kitchen or anything, and you'll have the Honeycomb style you're after.
Hope it helps
Thanks for the fast replies!
I think I will root my phone today
Great.
It works.
Thanks!
EDIT:
And this works, too.

There's a small problem now.
I tried to install a clock/date widget but if I open the drawer on homescreen there is no widget to choose?

Not sure what you are asking... you hold down on the home screen and select to choose a widget.
Well, that's the usual way to place a widget.
But my installed widgets aren't listed. There are always only the standard ones.

[Q] Launcher Pro dock icons/theme for Go Launcher Ex?

I was using Launcher Pro almost a year and I really like it's dock bar but GO Launcher Ex is a way more powerful than LP.
I'd like to copy LP dock bar into GO Launcher Ex. Yes, I know, you can change dock and icons manually in the settings but it doesn't look the same as original. I even found all necessary images:

http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/sites/default/files/lpicons/camera_0.png
http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/sites/default/files/lpdocks/froyo-bg3_02.png
But as I said, that's not it. :/ Is there any theme or app for GO imitating LP dock bar? Or can you tell me how to extract original dock bar and icons from LauncherPro?
PS: I've noticed that you can assign one app only to one folder in app drawer in GO Launcher Ex, why? I was using FolderOrganizer on LP where you can assign labels (folders) to the app, so one app can be assigned to many folders. Is there any solution for that in GO drawer?

You don't have to quote my message if you're replaying just under my post.
I'm not using ADW Luncher... Well, I think you didn't read my post at all? By the way I already said in previous post that I downloaded all icons and set them manually in dock but I'm not happy with results.
Thanks, but you didn't help me.
I was just suggesting adw as it is more powerful than lp, and I always quote as someone may reply while I am writing! My apologies for trying to help name noted, I won't try in future due to your terse answer, all the best

Oh, don't be angry on me! I prefer GO Launcher Ex, I used to have ADW for some time but I went back to LP. Now is time for GO. The GO team makes pretty good apps and have great support.
Hymm, I think that I just must get used to new dock design.
Ok ok, peace dude
