OP updated to include a 178dpi mod for those not comfortable with doing it themselves. Enjoy!
So it was a 3G version? If so I will know for certain that these do not work for that version. Please let me know. Did you try reboot menu alone? The android.policy.jar mods should completely identical on both devices, it is the SystemUI.apks that are causing the issue (which is in the tablet mods and the battery mods)
Would be nice to see the TabletUI mod without Reboot menu. Can you make one, please?
Thanks for suggestion, I just wonder if you can make kill all mod in recent app. That will be great and handy, I know everybody use it all the time.
Please note, these have at this point only been tested working on the WiFi version. I believe the reboot menu and volume skip mods will work with the 3G version, but flash at your own risk, and perform a nandroid backup prior to applying.
I am sure many will agree that choosing between a true stock experience and the plethera of custom roms (and thier many lovely options) can be a challenge. Myself, I usually go with the CyanogenMod myself, just for the options. But I always come back to stock for its dependability. So I have made a few mods that are odexed and flashable from your custom recovery.

The first is the 4-way Reboot Menu. My source is from this thread here. It did not work initially so a slight modification had to be made, which the thread maintainer was glad to help talk me through. I opted to not do the volume skip at this time. If there is any interest I will add it later.

Next is an odexed version of Tablet UI. I used AuxLV's app, Tabletizer from here, and then odexed the files. The only real issue with it is that the stock launcher is virtually useless with this implemented and a third party launcher is needed. I personally like Nova Launcher (and was used for the screenshots), and Apex did work too. At this time, this mod will also implement the Reboot Menu from above as well (they both modify android.policy.odex). If this mod is wanted without the reboot menu, let me know.

This is a 100% battery mod that uses images that I created for the status bar. I have made this compatable with Spannaa's flashable battery themes (thread found here). This is essentially his "Base Statusbar Battery & Pulldown Battery Toggle VRTheme" with my PNG's. So any of his themes are compatable!

This below is only the Volume Skip mod. Control Play Music with the screen off by using the volume rocker to skip tracks!

Had a request for this, so I threw it together. This is simply a build.prop modded for 178dpi (tricks your device into thinking it has a larger screen than it does). He originally asked for 160dpi, but that broke tablet UI, so upped a bit. This will work on either odexed or deodexed stock. I included below a picture of this implemented. Also shown in this picture are themed softkeys found here (and work on either odexed or deodexed)

Need a rom to flash these on? Look no further!! Below are links to both Odexed and Deodexed Stock roms! They have been rooted (with SuperSU, busybox installed, and all apps that are not odexed within the rom are updated as of 03/05/2013. They are also set to zip align at boot (this will help keep the deodexed version running as smooth as the odexed version). No other modifications have been made yet. My thinking is that anything else is easily added afterwords, and will fall into the mod section above.

EXTRAS!!
This last part will be for extras I find that will work within either Odexed or Deodexed 4.2.2 stock roms (and maybe others). These are not my creations, but will work and I will include links for the given mod.

Hi, I got all mod, thank you.
Can you make "expand screen" and "wake device up from volume"?
It will be perfect!
I had some challenges getting tablet UI to work. I had dpi set to 175 and it did not switch new ui. Only when I changed to 178 it showed up.
Still reboot menu is still the old one. Do I need to enable the new one somewhere?
Otherwise great stuff... Any clue if you could do the quick app launcher as part of the status line on bottom? My custom ROM on A500 has that...
Mine does not look like that in portrait cause the app drawer icon is missing...can u please tell me what goes wrong?this is my screenshot...I used nova launcher here

TabletUI works on stock 213dpi and 178dpi as you discovered. I had the same issues with alternate dpi's breaking tabUI. As for the reboot menu you need to flash the tabletUI version that includes the reboot menu as not all versions include it. It is not something that is togglable from settings.
First things first: Thank you for the mods.
Is there a way to adjust the padding for the status/soft keys bar? If I could get that just a tiny bit smaller it would feel less like a waste of real estate.
