## ℹ️ Intro
- [Lawnchair Legacy 2.0-2589](https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/deletescape/lawnchair-launcher/lawnchair-launcher-2-0-2589-release/lawnchair-launcher-2-0-2589-android-apk-download/?) is ~~the least worst launcher~~ recommended. Newer versions lack support for changing icons using images. Also, other launchers have ads or are painful to customise/use. It also supports custom fonts!
- Backup/Restore - Lawnchair backups store the icons, layout and wallpapers ✅
- Lawnchair backups do NOT contain custom fonts. You'll need both the .shed file and .ttf files to the device

## How to

From the github theme folder(s)
- Download the .shed file (Lawnchair theme file) if you want a head start
- Download the wallpaper file
- Download the font (.ttf) file
- Download the icon pack (I'm working on creating these at the momemnt)

On your phone
- Install Lawnchair Legacy
- Open the .shed file in Lawnchair Legacy
- (If required) set the global font in Lawnchair to the .ttf file (Theme, Fonts, Change, Add Fonts etc)
- Set the wallpaper
- Unzip the icons to a suitable folder
- You may have to remove the "dead" home screen icons

### Customising the icons

1. In the app drawer, long press the app, Customise
2. Tap the app's icon
3. Tap Open Photos
4. Browse to your icon folder and choose an icon, then OK
5. Now you can drag the app to the homescreen

## Theming Tips
- Lawnchair supports .gif files as wallpaper (non-animated), which is ideal for stock Windows backgrounds which use GIF colours
- Note: set the icons in the app drawer first - the change will flow down to the home screen icons
- You can use [GIF Live Wallpaper by Awesome Robot](https://www.apk4fun.com/publisher/9185/) to set an animated .GIF as wallpaper, for example setting a Windows loading screen on the lock screen!
- [Futo keyboard v0.1.27](https://github.com/futo-org/android-keyboard/releases/tag/0.1.27) now supports themes (eg background image)
- [Notification Shortcuts](https://apkpure.com/notification-shortcuts/dk.nicolai.buch.andersen.ns) app also supports custom (.png) icons!

## Icon tips
- Icons can be extracted from Windows files using wrestool, which supports all Windows DLLs, EXEs etc since Windows 3.0!
- VirtualBox hard drive .vdi files can be opened/extracted with 7Zip (eg so you can install a legacy OS then extract the icons from it)
- .ICO files can be converted to .PNG (with transparency!) using imagemagick
- Fun icons can be found in MORICONS.DLL and PIFMGR.DLL
- Win95/NT 4.0 have the same vibe, likewise with Win2k/ME. Icons/wallpaper colour are the same. WinME and Win2k do have different wallpaper though
- Nova launcher works, but it has its bugs. Wallpaper placement can be hard to get right. It has ads. It's also not fun to pick custom icons, although others I've tried are worse. It also doesn't support custom fonts

Then I had to expand.exe the file 🙃
