Twitter - com.atebits.Tweetie2 & Icon@2x.png
Google maps - com.google.Maps & AppIcon@2x.png

http://ios.xengi.org/cfbundleidentifier/default/ That site will be your friend.

To get rid of the black shadow

Navigate to /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileIcons.framework/ with ifile or whatever you use on your PC, and add .bak to the end of each of the following files AppIconMask@2x~iphone.png, AppIconOverlay@2x~iphone.png, AppIconShadow@2x~iphone.png. So it'll look like AppIconMask@2x~iphone.png.bak

This will make any unthemed app store icon completely square though.

Did you respring? Another option is going http://jakurepo.com/ > Goodies > UI > noiconmask.theme

download that and put it into your themes folder. Do you use springtomize?

cuz nothing is working for me...the facebook/twitter/googlemaps..and the background stuff is doing nothing.

i have all of those and a python folder but the python folder is NOT stock, it's because of the python package i installed from cydia

are you sure you are making the custom theme correctly? naming the image files correctly?

yes. i know how it needs to be cap/no cap for icon name and such.


its so odd, the google maps icon finally changed, but the background mask is there, but not for others???

 

[rick snagwell]

so i figured out the mask bg stuff.


but i cant get my Facebook and twitter to change icon?!


and the masking on the dock stays...wonder if its a differ folder.

 

[rick snagwell]

got all done, but the twitter icon wont change!

i was renaming thru ifunbox...is that an issue?
