Is it possible to keep my stock launcher but change the theme or icons and such around like if i was to have Launcher Pro or Go launcher. I noticed the other launchers are slower then my stock home(which is wierd to me), so I wana use my stock launcher but be able to customize it. I'm rooted by the way, but stock root if that helps. Thanks in advanced everyone
 
Not sure about any theming options, if any. You can change the 3 of the icons along the bottom if you tap and hold then drag icons to it (must be done from the applications menu). You can also change the number of screens (Max is 7). To do this, pinch (like zooming out) on the home screen and you will see all of the pages laid out that you can rearrange/add/delete just like icons on the home screen. Hope that helps.
 
hey sherri. I tried it and it doesn't. it only changes stuff inside that folder program or however I would say it..
 
It does. Once you change the icon within Folder Organizer, go back to your home screen. Each launcher is a bit different, but now you need to get however you get widgets on the phone.

On my phone (MIUI Launcher for ADW stand-alone app), I tap "menu/add/more/custom shortcuts". There, you will see Folder Organizer Item or Folder Organizer Link. (Link is if you put groups in folders in Folder Organizer, with a custom icon...)

You want Folder Organizer Item. Tap it. It should open FO, find the app you want (you should have already changed the icon...) and tap it. It should be on your homescreen w/your selected icon.

Also, any jpg you want can be an icon. I found a picture of a Tiffany's Gift Box, downloaded it, and use it for my market/play store icon....


If you need more help, shout (or pm or gtalk....unfortunately, I have no life, so I am always here!) ;)
