GingerDx uses T-mobile theme. Download one of them and if you want to edit the default framework what you have to theme is not the usual framework-res.apk but the SystemUi (or something like that) app in system/app. Then you push back the modified app to system/app. You can use apktool to modify the theme.

In that case, just install and apply that theme,then go to gingerdx setting to set the statusbar transparency to theme and reboot

Not all launcher can have transparent statusbar,
If you're using launcher pro,you should use live wallpaper to get the transparent statusbar
I suggest you use zeam launcher

Sorry,thought you only need transparent statusbar

Just like i've said before,you can use apktool to decompile framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
You need java installed on your pc first

But gingerdx already have a feature for transparent statusbar
I've tried it and it works,but i found a lil bug on date when pull down the statusbar

here's i made the patch for GingerDX v.007

1. apply theme that support transparent statusbar like MIUI or Meizu
2. go to gingerdx setting and set statusbar transparency to theme
3. reboot to CWM Recovery and flash statusbar_patch.zip

i only patch the centered clock and modified pulled down statusbar because GDX already have feature for transparent statusbar
