[How to]Easy Guide to install custom icons in HTC Sense using Folder Organizer lite.
The following is a quick tutorial on how to install custom icons on your Android device. For the purposes of this guide, I will focus on HTC devices. Folder Organizer lite is free and found in the market. The app is fantastic and has many features included.
https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result
So let’s get to it, nice and simple:
- Install Folder Organizer lite from the market.
- Visit this site to find a vast amount of custom icons: [Collection] ICON SETS | Over *700* different Icon Packs [INDEX on 2nd post] - xda-developers
- Find an icon pack that you like and download/transfer it to your sd card.
- Open Folder Organizer from the App menu and select Apps which will bring up your list of installed applications.
- Tap the arrow tab on the right side, select icon you want to customize and then select Android Image Gallery.
- Find the icon album in your htc album which comes up and open.
- Select the custom icon image you wish to swap out. You can do this for all of your apps while in Folder Organizer or one by one if you like. I usually just go through and assign as many custom icons as I can.
- Once completed, close out of Folder Organizer and return to your home screen panel.
- Tap and hold the screen and select Shortcut.
- Select FO Item-Folder Organizer and then select Apps.
- Select the app you would like to add to the homescreen with your new custom icon! Done
I find that some label names are too long and look bad on the homescreen. So you can change them as well before adding the custom icon to a panel in Sense. Here’s a quick guide:
- Open Folder Organizer, Select Apps and the arrow on the right side again.
- Select Rename to change the name. done.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Have fun with your new custom icons!
