    How to change N9 default icons?

    I've found out that installed app icons are stored at hicolors folder, but can't find the folders of default applications (say phone, message, mail. etc)

    there's nothing in my /.grob/1 folder

    this will be a quick question, hope someone could help me here much much appreciated!

    There is a theme changer application and a few icon themes available for the N9 at apps.formeego.org. Hopefully there will come more.

    You can change N9 default icon by using copy commnad in Terminal (with Developer mode) from new icons to meegotouch in system files. I did it and it worked.

    could you please elaborate on this? Im a noob on this meego stuff and I wanted to change the fennec icon (the blue one with the silver fox) to the firefox (classic) icon that is inside the hicolors folder.

    help will be appreciated.

    well the file I want to use is in this folder

    /usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/icons
    (i guess this is the icon folder for the app laucher)

    there is an icon called fennec.png (which i want to switch it for another=

    and the one I would like to use is called icon-l-firefox.png (perfect squircle)

    am i going the right direction?

    Basically you need to delete the original icon picture, then replace it with icon-l-firefox.png

    yes you are going in the right direction
