G3 icons?

[dougltc]

The G3 allows icons for apps to be changed... I tried downloading some icon packs from Google Play... But they only seem to support specific launchers ..

Where do I get compatible icon packs?

Thanks!

You need to make a LG Smartworld account and get them from there. The app should already be on your handset.

After I download a theme it does not show up under "Home" in Home Screen settings? When I click on the download from my drop down notification menu, it brings me back to the smart world page and I get a pop up message saying "This app installed on a different path, not LG SmartWorld. Download will stop" Am I doing something wrong?

What is this app called? I don't see it... I am on Sprint. Maybe they removed it?

Google "LG Smartworld apk" and then download it that way.

Same thing is happening to me... I have the g3 with tmobile, I don't even see the option in home to change the theme. :-( anyone find a way to fix this?

Anyone find out how to download alternative icons?

Download the app "Icon Changer Free"
Download the app pack that you want.

Then you can open the Icon Changer App, and then it allows you to create a shortcut on the homescreen of any app you have downloaded and change it's appearance to one of the icons from the icon pack you downloaded.

So, a little education for you guys...

An APK file is basically a zip file. If you change the extension or open it with a zip viewer, you'll find all the icons from the icon pack in there. Just find the icons you want and extract them to a folder on your device. Then, with LG's stock launcher, you can change to custom icons by selecting the pictures from the folder you just made. This is the ultimate workaround, but applications like PNUT mentioned might be faster.

There is that too, but I am way too lazy to do all of that work

Check out an app call 'unicon' on the play store. It suppose let you use any icon pack you want on any launchers, stocked or 3rd party.

Just install Nova Launcher and you're all set.

There's another post somewhere on these forums that talks about T-Mobile G3 not having a theme option. I downloaded the launcher that was recommended and was able to get a theme option, but I downloaded a few themes and none of them were available to install.

Just download a different launcher (i use nova launcher) and there are tons of icon packs out there to use. The default launcher on the g3 sucks anyway so why not? I would recommend the Ultimate L icon pack as well, it looks great.
