Yes, you can with custom launcher like Nova o Apex, simply by installing themes for these launcher, or with a custom rom that supports themes, such as CyanogenMod or AOKP

Ok cool. But can it also be done without changing launcher or ROM?

there are many alternatives to change the stock icons
1. DO IT YOURSELF
decompile APK's and literally change lot of img inside
2. INSTALL A LAUNCHER
launchers like NovaLauncher, ADW, GoLauncher, etc support themes that are meant for their launcher
3. FLASH A ROM THAT SUPPORTS THEMES
ROMs that are AOKP/CyanogenMod based/AOSP/MIUI have lots of themes
if you are the android fanatic type, i suggest AOSP/AOKP/CM
if you think apple's icons look rather dashing, then i suggest grab MIUI
cheers!

Thanks for reply,
Maybe I forgot to say that I prefer stay in stock deodexed rom with original touchwiz home launcher. So I think the only way is decompile apk... is apktool good for this?

Use a launcher like Nova or Apex there's 100 different launchers out there and you don't need to be rooted to use them

[Q][P] Widgets

Hi all,
I'am using a Nova Launcher and I'm very proud and
i'm using the best launcher and it is super fast and user friendly.
the problems are;
* i can't add Time/Date, Weather, Walkman and any other default widget.
is there a way to install a widget using a market launcher specially Nova Launcher?
and by the way, if i flash this Honami Home V2 By @niaboc79 can i still install Nova Launcher and use the widgets of the Honami of niaboc79?

Sony widgets can only be placed on Sony launchers. If you are placing normal widgets maybe you didnt give nova root permissons.

You'll need a CM ROM to use that, the clues in the title. Themes can be installed in a few ways and generally what they're for either in the title or the theme thread.

"themes can be installed in a few ways". Launcher themes, Theme Chooser, X-Themes, themed ROMS or themed apks, you'll need to read the threads for how to install each one/way.
