Root [Virgin Mobile] removed

I appreciate the offer but other than theming the contacts and dialer, I've pretty much accomplished everything I set out to accomplish on this mod unless you can figure out a way to enable the Wi-Fi in-out indicator (I've pretty much given up on it).

Sounds good! And thanks again for all your help and advice!

Minor updates to framework/UI (because sometimes an edited XML is nicer looking than an edited PNG)
Fixed framework-res.apk bug (forgot to re-sign it last release)
-------------
This will likely be my last update for a while.
I still plan on trying to fix the lockscreen so that the "google" target gets properly highlighted and eventually I will get around to theming contacts/dialer but I've come very close to accomplishing what I set out to accomplish, which is to give us a "stock Android 4.1" look and feel.

AOSP-style notifications in drawer (complete with blue square behind the icons)
Tweaks to status bar clock, including small AM/PM

Do we really need am pm at all? Thb the small text looks strange and its not really needed anyway :) but keep doin what you're doin:beer:

I can definitely remove the AM/PM. I can't remember if it's there in AOSP or not so I'll look out up later. Update planned for tomorrow or Monday. Tweaks to the framework buttons and status bar icons. Working on the Wi-Fi in-out indicator again and think I might have it this time.

EDIT: checked some screenshots for the Nexus 4 (didn't get much more AOSP than that) and sure enough, there's no AM/PM so say goodbye to that!

Better status bar icons for Wi-Fi and battery
Fixed status bar clock color and restored to original font size
Removed AM/PM from status bar clock and notification drawer clock
Borderless dialog buttons
Added Roboto 4.3 FlipFont package (can be uninstalled)
Tweaks to SecSettings.apk
---
The borderless dialog buttons were pretty easy; just a few edits to the framework-res styles.xml and done, there's probably more to do on this and I'll work on it as I come across it.
Status bar icons and clock color also relatively easy.
Roboto FlipFont package was scavenged from the internet somewhere.
The hard part was removing the AM/PM from the status bar clock! Tried four different mod guides about six different ways each before finally getting it. Still trying to figure out the Wi-Fi in-out indicator, this may be my last update until I get that. Enjoy everyone!

EDIT: Screenshots updated
 
Is there an all stock deodex'd rom anywhere? Besides victorious.

Not that I know of but there are various ways to deodex a ROM ranging from easy and mostly automated to extremely difficult. Search for "deodex on device" and you should be able to find a couple of ways to do it without the need of a computer.

Titanium backup has an option to undo sys dalvik integration, think that would work to de-odex?
 
With 922b3 zip I have full size am pm

Edit: I just realized im still odexed and have been running this fine the entire time lol. Ill deodex tomorrow and see BBC what it looks like
 
Update coming later tonight to include overhauled SystemUI (notification bar icons/layout/clock) and installation of 8sms, True Contacts, and AOSP Camera by default. The apps, of course, can be uninstalled if desired. Testing now to make sure there are no ill-effects from the SystemUI changes. The Wi-Fi activity indicator continues to elude me and I'm about ready to give up again on that. If anybody has any idea which smali file contains the code to display the activity indicator, please let me know.

SystemUI:
- Battery icons
- Signal strength icons
- Clock color/text
- Various other status bar icons
- Finally fixed signal cluster layout for overlapping WiFi and signal status
Apps:
- Added True Contacts for AOSP-like contacts
- Added 8sms for AOSP-like SMS/MMS
- Added Android 4.3 Gallery/Camera
------
Every APK is zipaligned in this release. Enjoy.

With that said, the mod is basically feature complete. Unless I run into bugs, there will be no further updates.
 
Finally got full stock rom deodexed, thanks to Teachme, thanks bro. (That picture kills me). Finally get to check out your finished theme.
 
No solution. I'll continue to poke around for it but it seems Samsung has hard coded it out somewhere.

yeah i completed went through the smali for this and a nexus 7 tablet rom and even making them basically match in what values were put where and removing all the booleans checks and all.... no arrows.

somewhere it goes "no".

It's odd because our phone seems to share a lot of code with the Galaxy S2 (although I suppose this is true of most Touchwiz ROMs) and that phone has Wi-Fi activity indicators, but they appear UNDER the signal indicator. I'm going to tear into an S2 jelly bean ROM and see what I can find.
