That's right, no status bar... And somehow messed up my background :p I hope to work out the bugs and have a working Stock JB theme soon... :D
 
I've noticed that replacing the stock systemUI.apk with a themed one replaces my wallpaper with a black wallpaper and the default one for vice versa. I'm not sure if the wallpaper is stored in the systemUI.apk or if it handles it but just wanted to share something that I've noticed :)
 
Makes me happy to at least know someone is working on this . I hate the way it looks so I have to use Nova Launcher and have used root explorer to make it look more like ICS . But its just a total pain to do it . I'm really happy you're working on it [:
 
How do you theme? Do you need to flash a rom or something or just go to something?


Editing and replacing images and values within the system and framework apps, to be simple about it.

Most people "cook" themes in a "kitchen" on their pc.

Applying a theme can be done by flashing or manually replacing the edited files. Flashing is recommended.
