What it is:
This is a port of the stock Android 2.3 Gingerbread Theme. Theme includes a 1% battery modification, the numbers are a bit larger in the current version and should be easily readable. Version 2.0 is updated for EB13. MUST BE ON A DEODEXED EB13 ROM TO FLASH THIS!!!
README: As of 2.1, both AOSP and TW versions of this theme are natively compatible with ROMs with CarrierIQ removed (ACS SyndicateROM Frozen and Bonsai 3.0.1). The versions indicate which lockscreen is included since that file is needed for the reboot mod. It does not matter what lockscreen you currently have, the theme will give you whichever one is indicated.
Coming Soon: A new pulldown is being worked on and also an addon to remove the battery % numbers. Also, addon for haptic feedback removed on AOSP lockscreen for no-CIQ ROMs. GB themed market notifications!
Android Customization Suite: I have also now fully integrated the ACS Tool so check it out. As of 3/2/11, V2.0 is not in there yet but watch for it soon.

*Install Notes for 2.1: Check /data/app for com.google.android.gm-1.apk, delete it if you see it (root explorer). Then flash the theme. Not necessary for Bonsai 3.0.1, unsure about other ROMs. 2.1 contains updated Gmail: 2.3.4.1.

Previous Versions (DK28)
Code:
Version 1.9 - AOSP - TWNEW (12/14/11): Thanks to mysteryemotionz pointing me in the right direction, I now proudly bring you an addon to remove the am/pm from the statusbar clock, see below. I've replaced the previous modded services.jar with this one, it prevents battery pull popup also but no longer contains the data governor killer as I have read it is not recommended.
README: Lots of changes coming to you in v1.9! First, I've removed Browser, Gallery, Email and Mms from the base theme due to different versions across ROMs. I have created ONE (and i'm not going to create any more, lol!) App addon zip with a custom mix of these 4 apps. To maintain compatibility with Bonsai v2.0.1 I've included the Reboot mod in each of 2 versions of the base theme, one for the TouchWiz lockscreen and one for the AOSP lockscreen.
Compatible with Bonsai 2.0.0 AND 2.0.1 (should be with all DK28 ROMs)
AOSP and TW versions
Reboot mod (thanks Mammon!)
Browser, Gallery, Email and Mms removed from base theme (addon)
removed services.jar (governor/battery full mod) from base theme (addon)
Full integration with the ACS Tool - everything is available within it!
Changed default contact icon to green android guy from Nexus S contacts.apk
Changed charging battery animation to be like Quantum ROMs configuration - shows battery percentage while charging (thanks a454nova and dameon for the xmls)
Changed calender icon in widget picker to match stock Gingerbread (for acer i think, lol)
If you flashed 1.8.4, just flash THIS to fix battery charging animations
Note: you only need this if you are flashing for the first time or are coming from 1.7 or earlier, this just fixes a small bug in 1.8. If you flashed 1.8 there is an addon for just the browser at the bottom of the OP.
Changed pulldown header and notification backgrounds to transparent, more overall sleekness
services.jar now has both battery full popup killer and data service governor killer (remove from /system/framework or flash the stock services.jar addon to revert)
themed highlight presses in contacts and music player (changed from tw blue)
Fixed contacts button in dialer
Added no quickpanel button text mod to full theme (making addon to revert)
Edify update script! (compatible with CWM3, deletes cache and dalvik for you!)
5mb/hi-res MMS mod/themed app included
Mod included: No full battery popup! (to prevent installing this, remove services.jar from zip/system/framework)
Fixed roaming signal bars
fixed some tabs to be themed (kinda broke background to contact icon in dialer half of the word contacts doesnt show, not a big deal, will fix next update)
system app icons from Nexus S dump - calculator, camera, calendar... (updating some of your apps will basically do that automatically, ie: Maps etc, if so i removed those from the theme)
gingerbread launcher removed (download from market)
Lots more themed app icons and status notifications: email, gmail, browser, contacts, MMS, calculator, youtube etc...
Dialer v2 is included! Fully themed, new sleekness modeled after the dialer from the Nexus S dump (thanks dameon!), no more orange message button and top bar is black, gray and sleek!
changed back to Sprint branding as some didnt like it, i'm not going to maintain 2 additional versions, lol
browser loading and downloading animations fixed! (thanks dameon!)
Fixed Silent quick panel icon, changed to green (pretty much for Boktai1000 who pointed it out, cause i'm that nice of a guy. If you never noticed, you dont have to bother downloading this version)
Sprint branding changed to Epic (mysteryemotionz!)
Data network mode in poweroff menu is themed to match now
Quick panel activated icons are now android green (well pretty close, looked better on this crappy monitor, i'll probably fine tune later but its definitely better than the orange!)
Menu icons in browser are now themed lighter to stand out on dark background!
Settings.apk is themed!
Gingerbread dialer v1 is included! (its basic for now but should get better in time)
AOSP lockscreen removed but you can download it here. (Note: this will NOT install the TW lockscreen, it just no longer includes the AOSP lockscreen)
These 3 are mods of sevices.jar, so it will revert any mods already made to that file if there are any, NOT FOR USE WITH SRF 1.x or Bonsai 3.x! see below
Remove Haptic Feedback from AOSP Lockscreen (only flashes framework.jar, so you need to already have the AOSP lockscreen/AOSP version of theme installed. Don't think it has any effect on TW lockscreen tbh)
zip worked just fine for me. love the theme thank you very much!
some possible input from me, it must be possible to change the text on the notification menu, check droid-lifes "Apex 1.3.0 With Gingerbread By Fabolous" post (can't post links yet)
if you were able to get it to look like this, that would be sweet.
also another thing that needs improvement, is the quick toggles on the notification bar when they are highlighted they look pixelated around their borders.
Got it working for me now just needed to redownload it thank you very much and like the post above me said making he text in the notification darker or at least readable would be sweet but very nice theme
