I personally use Bettercut

How can I get a custom messages icon? I used better cut, and shorter cut for all my apps but messages won't work.

Launcher pro with stock app drawer?

I'm just wondering if there's a way to make the launcher pro app drawer like stock And not be ordered by name. Everytime I install a new app I want it to be at the bottom of the list.

No, this is not possible. The developer of LP is revamping the .apk from the ground up. If you want this, check out his site and make the suggestion... pretty sure it's just launcherpro.com
Okay thanks

Apps for customization? (:

Looking for apps like minimalistic text. Apps that let you create Widgets and apps that offer cool Widgets. Any app that customizes and gives the UI a nice appearance

You can try to search "widget", "theme" and "launcher" in Google Market. Not sure if I answer your question.
Oh alright will do, and any feedback is always welcomed

Disable stock lockscreen?

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone knows how to disable or freeze the stock lockscreen? Ive used other lockscreens like lockbot and magic locker and for sone reason the stock one still pops up so I end up unlocking two screens. Gets annoying. My phones stock nonrooted.thanks in advance.

You can use widgetsoid and create a widget to disable it. Or, if you have Power control Plus you can use their widget too.
Thanks a lot. Ill give those a try and post back.

Also you can freeze via Titanium Backup one app - Sprint_OMADM.apk, of course if you are not Sprint user.
the free app 'no lock' is amazing and works flawlessly. Best app on the market imo
Thanks guys for all the help! I tried widgdtsoid and power control. power control worked but it had a notification symbol which I dont like. I just downloaded and installed no lock and I think I'm gonna go with that one. You guys rock!

No lock + Agile Lock screen works great together
Anyone have a solution for us with Outlook EAS that requires the PIN? No Lock does not work for me.
I use go locker with no issues

Im using no lock to disable stock lockscreen and am using go launcher/go locker with sense slider for my lockscreen. Works flawlessly.

Use widget locker. It's not free but it sure as hell is worth the admission fee. It gives you the option to completely replace the stock lockscreen plus it has loads of other useful features (integration with teslaLED)

AOSP icons with sense?

I am finally starting to get the feel for sense. Is there any way to swap out the icons for aosp ones?

Easiest way I know is to use the app folder organizer. It has an option to change the Icon. Then instead of putting the app on your screen, you put the folder organizer quick link to that app.
