Just to give you guys a heads up, we managed to get the NJ2 system.img unpacked. With a little more time we should have something to share. Stay tuned.
Not exactly sure how I did this but...
Edit: I've been trying to get a booting stock nj2 build out of dsixda's kitchen since 6 this morning to no avail. I got so mad at one point I almost threw my phone across the room. But I didn't...

Issues with the battery....
guess it did not dawn on me that you have to have OGbatteymod.... seems rather large just for a battery. Once back installed, she's purring like a kitten....
not sure if this will, work... just trying to say, I like this very much. seems that everyone want to theme it... lot more than I would prefer, but that's awesome too
More than happy to wait for a zip that will actually work properly. sorry to hear it has been a major headache

What you got going on man new settings

Yep. It started as a quick port of S3Rx then I got to trying things in Tribute. I still have about 3 things to get working right. Bad news for themers though is its a whole new SystemUI so there might me issues. My intention is to make it a separate flashable. An upgrade rather than an update with the ability to revert. If I had the time I'd like to put together an aroma zip but there just aren't enough hours in the day.
Im still on the first version I flashed of your rom ...no updates for me if it works I leave it alone lol

Tribute-S3Rx Settings Upgrade
The features added by flashing this are:
To flash I recomend
1. Disable/uninstall Xposed framework
2. Wipe cache and Dalvik Cache
3. Flash the zip and reboot.
Download:
AndroidFileHost
The reason I have decided to make this an independent upgrade instead of an update is for those who like the themes. This required a different SystemUI. You can flash the themes after flashing this upgrade but doing so will disable most of the upgraded options.
Issue:
There is one issue that hasn't been a problem for me and I haven't been able to figure out. In settings/Network Connections/Wi-Fi/Advanced there is a check box option for "Automattically connect to AT&T Wi-Fi Hotspot when detected" and it wont stay unchecked.
As always, flash at your own risk.
Keeping in line with the direction of this ROM as a "tribute" to development of the Samsung Galaxy SIII, I give you the Tribute-S3Rx settings upgrade
S3Rx is a TouchWiz custom ROM for the AT&T GSIII by enewman17. He and loserskater have made numerous contributions to the XDA community. They are the ones who deserve all the credit for these mods and a great deal of thanks for alowing me the privilege of useing this work to enhance our user experience in Tribute.
The features added by flashing this are:
- App ops (Moved to settings/My Device/Extras)
- Notifications History
- Long press kill
- Music control
- Heads-up notifications
- Volume panel timeout
- Crt effect
- Battery Style (Previously in Display Settings)
- Clock position
- AM/PM Style
- Day of the week
- Clock color
- Keyboard notification
- Alarm icon
- Blocking Mode
- Battery notification
- Voice search app
- Double tap home
- Quick unlock
- Enable AOSP lock screen
- Secure lock screen widgets
- And several previously unavailable unlock effects.
To flash I recomend
1. Disable/uninstall Xposed framework
2. Wipe cache and Dalvik Cache
3. Flash the zip and reboot.

I have been trying to find the notifications background in the SystemUI all morning. I don't know why I can't find it. Ugh!:banghead:
