Change Icons w/out New Launcher

Hey there,

I'd like to keep my TWiz launcher as it is, but I'd love to be able to change my icons. Does anyone know of anything I can do that with, easily?

I know I could easily do it with GoLauncher or Apex, or whatever, but I really like Touchwiz and I like my s-Pen support, so I don't want to lose TWiz capabilities but I think I'd like to modify my phone a little more than it is currently.

Thanks! :o
 
Hi, Alice!

I'm not too familiar with these devices, but I reckon that the only other way would be rooting, and modifying the apk files to show the images you want. Which isn't exactly...easy.

Perhaps someone else could shed some light on this situation, but as far as I know, that's the only way other than Apex/GoLauncher/etc
 
I am rooted, but yeah, changing each APK individually sounds like a pain in the butt.

If it's not an option, I'll live. :P I really like TWiz, so it's worth sticking with it, for me.
 
Download the app "icon changer" you can create your own icons or use any of the icons from the various themes for other launchers like adw

This should do the trick. You can create your own icons, download some from the web or use existing icons from other apps:

Ok, can someone tell me how to change my icons with this app? For the life of me I can't seem to figure it out! I've downloaded the app & the icon pack. I've told it what action to take with each of the icons. Now what?

**edit** Never mind, I figured it out.
