[Android][4.4+] MicoPacks - Manage installed Icon Packs - Paid Software Announcement and Discussion

Excellent! Just what I needed, thanks!
I did drop you an email via the app but thought would post here also.
Is it please possible to add some sort of preview function so when you select the pack, so for example it will show 5 or 10 icons?
Also is there any way to determine if the pack has Icon Theming in it and display that info in the details please?
I have so many packs that I forget what each really looks like so this would be a great addition.
Please feel free to PM if you would like any help in beta testing etc.
Thanks!

Hi, any news on the pending updates and added features please? Keen to try out some new things with the app.
I also just noticed that you state 'Root Required' next to Nova? Does this give added functionality as I have been using MicoPacks with Nova (not rooted) since I purchased it.

Sent you the APK via PM. Let me know your feedback.
Regarding Nova, Yes. If you have root, It will not prompt to apply icons, automatically applies with root.

Anyone experienced the same issue?
Thank you.

Since I'm very new of android icon porting feel free to suggest, request and critics!
Please Note: If you are upgrading from 1.05 to 2.x version, or installing trough the android market, please remove the old one and once installed re-select the theme in Launcher Pro preferences.

Try "change shortcut" keeping the default icon at the end with theme enabled.
I have like a thousand requests, and I can provide the activity name and in most cases even the icon. In fact, I'm using Faenza here on my OpenSuSE desktop, loving it on my phone but your package needs lots of HTC apps to be usable here.

Congratulations Mate!

Waiting for a new update!
Thanks
Nice icon, will wait for update
T-Mobile G2 compatibility
I love the Faenza icons and I'm currently using them on my linux box so thanks for porting this over to Launcher Pro! I was wondering, when I try to install this app using the market (3.0.26) it doesn't have an "Install" button, but the page exists. I decided to go to market.android.com and try to install it using my PC from there. It says that :
This app is incompatible with your T-Mobile HTC T-Mobile G2.
T-Mobile HTC T-Mobile G2
This item is not compatible with your device.
I don't see why an icon pack which is for Launcher Pro wouldn't be compatible with my device, if you know what I can do about this please let me know, I would love to use your theme. Thanks!
Nice icon set. Currently using it on Launcher Pro in my SGS.
Thanks!

UPDATE IS STOPPED FOR PUBLIC USER
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
explanation
-----------
I will not provide icon updates for public
because I see the icon that I created distributed at will.
without notice on the owner.
yesterday I get a PM from our friends who question whether the icon is made ​​by me or not.
after that ,I tried looking on google on matters relating to the icons that I created.
result, many people are claimed that this icon are his work.
I also found some blogs that upload this theme to a file hosting.
I am very sorry for the inconvenience,
but due to the greater number of icons (now about 840+, Thank god didn't release yet)
I have to protect my work.
I may act according to your very childish,
but this is what I can do to make everyone smile without hurting anyone.
you still can download the version1.3 for Launcher Pro

How you doin'? Greetings from my GT-I9000!
Wow, just Wow!
It hit me a few days ago, that I really like the design of Meego/Harmattan. I couldn't find any good quality icon packs back then.
I found the icon design guidelines from Nokia, and I photoshopped out the default ones from the pdf.
Plus I began to make a few icons for myself, based on the guide.
And Bam! Now here is your excellent quality icon set, that renders my work effectively unnecessary.
Don't get me wrong, I really really like your icons
As I said, I made some icons for myself, I hope you don't mind if I post them here. At least the not-redundant ones. Their size is 80x80 pixels, except for the android market icon, which is based on a default Nokia icon.
The icons are for:
Appusage - com.smartappers.appusage
BaconReader - a reddit reader app, can not be found in market yet, package name is: com.anrdoid.chrisarvin.baconreader (it's not a typo)
QuickPic - com.alensw.PicFolder
FBReader - org.geometerplus.zlibrary.ui.android
MortPlayer - de.stohelit.folderplayer
Samba Filesharing - com.funkyfresh.samba
Changelog Droid - com.cypressworks.changelogviewer
Opera and Opera Mini (these because I like more the shape of the O from the original Opera logo)
+ 4 misc icons for app drawer/folders
They are smaller in size than your icons, and maybe worse in quality, so obviously I don't except you to include my icons. But feel free to use them as base, or inspiration - and take them as icon requests
Although I don't use Launcher Pro.
Plus requests:
AdAway - org.adaway
Total Commander - com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
Folder Organizer - com.abcOrganizer
Amazon Appstore - com.amazon.venezia
DiskUsage - com.google.android.diskusage
Dragon, Fly! Free - com.lsgvgames.slideandfly
Elixir 2 - com.bartat.android.elixir
Taptu - com.taptu.streams
Twicca - jp.r246.twicca
Thanks!!
It looks awesome, can you please make one for Go launcher.
Many thanks

Codecrusher's black theme...and settings
(I don't have the time to write all instructions at once so please be patient, I'll update this post during the day.)
[My english is very rusty. If you want to suggest improvements and corrections drop me a PM]
If you want your zenfone 2 to look the same as mine you have to change a significant amount of things.
Some changes requires root or particular extensions but nothing is mandatory and you may decide to follow only some steps of my instructions.
From what I've read and from my experience steps 1-2-3-4-5-6 will not have any significant impact on battery life or performance while steps 7-8-9 (which are related not only to appearance) should improve your battery life.
So....assuming that you begin with your stock Asus Theme....let's start!
1.Set Wallpaper
Wallpaper Link (credits to TOBIAS ROETSCH)
In order to simplify the process, I suggest to apply it from the Asus Homescreen>>Long tap on empty space >> wallpaper >> Home and lockscreen.
PS As you can see in my screenshots, my wallpaper is slightly different from the one available on the link and this is because I've added a little of stars on top and a little of dark on the bottom. I'm not posting my version because I'm waiting for the authorization of the autor but my work is only a little of raw copy and paste...
2.Change DPI
This smartphone has a beautiful and wide screen but the icons and the status bar were way too big for me...it looked like a toy with big buttons and magnified textboxes..
First install ADB (there are plenty of installing guide on the net. If you don't have time to read all that stuffs I've found an installer here on XDA but I didn't tried it before, let me know if it works good ADB installer link).
Then follow this guide and change DPI (it uses ADB): http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/tip-adjusting-dpi-root-t3098690
I suggest to try with DPI between 360 and 400 (default is around 480). Mine is 380.
Give it a try, for me this is the most important change for a better aspect of our Zenfone. If you are not happy it is completely and easily reversible as explained in the second guide.
PS Be aware that a few apps show some strange behavior with custom DPI. Known issues:
-some third party keyboards show bigger and unusable keys [The stock Android and Asus keyboards work fine]
-Whatsapp cannot cut images before sending it [but I cut them before with the editor of the gallery].
3.CHANGE LAUNCHER
You can also continue without substituting launcher but then you will not be able neither to change all your icons nor to perfectly stretch your widgets.
I didn't want to change launcher but in the end I was forced to install an otherone for 2 main reasons:
- with the stock launcher you are not allowed to change all icons (even with the preinstalled Asus app).
- with the stock launcher you cannot manage the grid of homescreen where you put widgets
I've installed Nova Launcher.
4.ICON PACK
The icon pack I'm using is called "flight" (or "Volo") and it's available on the play store.
I've bought the complete version but the free version does perfectly its job.
Apply the theme and then manually change all the icons that were not automatically replaced (if the icon of your app is not available choose one you like from the hundreds of icons available).
PS I've used "flight icon pack" but there are a lot of black and white minimal icon pack available on the play store....just look for "black and white icon pack" or similar.
Just some hints:
- white icons whit round background >> "Gel - Icon Pack"
- minimal white icons >> "Min - Icon Pack"
[coming soon]
5.WIDGETS
First screen: no widget, only icons.
Second screen: Jack's music widget. (I've tried Universal Music Widget but it crashes all the time)
Third screen: Stock Asus Meteo Widget
Forth screen: Simple Calendar Widget (it is fully customizable and I'm working to get an even better look.)
Fifth screen: no widget, only icons.
If you have patience and time and want to produce similar widgets you will also like "zooper" or "minimalistic text" (available on the play store).

7.[root required]EXTENSIONS
I've used extensions to:
-remove battery icon from statusbar
-add network speed information on statusbar
-add seconds to the clock on the statusbar
-add a download bar integrated on top of the statusbar
-add useful buttons and features to the power menu
-improve battery performance
[coming soon]
8.[root required]GESTURES
With the use of a third party launcher you will loose the double tap to sleep feature but not the double tap to wake.
I've used third party gestures software in order to restore this features and add other useful gestures.
[coming soon]
9.OTHER
-change whatsapp background with this one (open a chat in WA and then options>>background)
[coming soon]

looks good.. i like it :good:
Please, post link of theme. I like it.
nice theme
Ok!
It's not a "real theme" because I've modified dpi, changed the aspect of the status bar and other things that one cannot change with a simple "theme".
I'm going to edit my first post and add instructions. Follow all the steps and you will get the same results.
Double tap
Do you lose the double tap wake/sleep functions when you use another launcher?
yes den u need to use status bar to make it sleep

The double tap to wake is always available.
The double tap to sleep can be restored using Nova Launcher itself (double tap on status bar or double tap on home button if associated to greenify) or any other gestures third party app. However I'll write down all the different workarounds I've found...
I've seen 2 interesting xposed modules that can change the icons and the grid on home.
I'm going to test them. If they work there is no need to change the stock launcher.

Finally with native EMUI 8 support. Thanks a lot for this outstanding theme.
This is one of the very best EMUI themes. Could you make one with Android green instead of yellow, please?
very nice theme thank you
Thats the first EMUI Theme that doesnt look like a phone from 10 years ago.
Thank you
Bugs:
Using pixel version:
When turning on dark mode, the theme gets removed and starts to bug around.
After applying some issues with battery icon (There was still the outer shape of the normal horizontal icon but the inside that indicates battery strength was the new standing pixel version), fixed after restarting phone.

That's not bugs. Dark mode interferes with custom themes, but why enable it if the theme is dark too?
About battery - always phone should be rebooted if theme is changing the battery indicator.
Just wanted to point out that I had issues with that, it was buggy since I had darkmode enabled prior applying theme and opening the battery setting from the shortcut somehow re-enabled it automatically.
But works fine now, don't need the darkmode, it's dark enough now.
BTW I love that the quick settings are the stock icons. I hate the Huawei and tried substratum etc to change them but never worked... I didn't know that themes can change them (tried a lot of themes)
First of all, seems like a great theme.
I can download every other theme in your app except this one wich i want to use
Can't finish download, tried like 20 times, any suggestion or help pls?

Thanks @mr.mrcn, i did send a message to you
Hi mr.mrcn,
Many thanks for this awesome theme. This is the best theme I have found till now.
There is one thing I would like to suggest, if you find it worth considering.
Can you change the transparent boxes at the bottom to grey colour to match the colour as on otherapps
Holy... That exclusive theme is best what I found on this phone
Hi, very nice Theme, i use it on my P20 Pro.
Did someone know the difference between the Pixel and the Emui Version? Thanks.

I know this issue, didn't find solution yet even original dark interface on mate 10 pro has this issue
also on Mate 9 too!
@mr.mrcn
you have a pm!
I can't seem to get the app to work. Screenshot of the app on my Mate10 pro. Please help.
I really love this theme. Thank you for sharing this.
I have one question though, if you look at my screen shot, there is a gap between battery icon and the time. I refer to the screen shots available for preview on EMUI Themes Factory and it shows the gap to be much smaller. Any idea how I could fix this?
Thank you!
