If you long press on the icon you'll get a menu, choose edit info (I think). There you can change the label if you want. If you then press the icon while in edit info, you can change the icon. You may have to download an icon set from the play store with the icon you'd like if you don't have any on your phone.
thanks a whole lot sincity....I really appreciate it. I thought there was a way to change all the icon labels at once, but I guess not. thank you anyway
In Nova settings you can change the whole icon set at once. Nova Settings > Look and Feel > Icon Theme. Again, it'll ask what icon set you want to use.
Again I am grateful. I know where to change the icons. And i see a color theme as far as lines for hashes, but no where do i see a place to change the color of the icon name. I know it used to be there
