What you have to do is..........change windowShowWallpaper under Theme.Holo to true and add the child element item windowBackground @color/transparent.........within the framework-res.apk of ICS CM9 Beta 0
Hope this is educational for those of that are interested.

To make the text more legible; just darken the transparency like this.....#80000000 in the color.xml

it's not the apk itself it's the framework-res.apk I modded so that any app that pulls from the background_holo_dark image becomes transparent, you see, it has to be done this way because rootexplorer is password protected when it's signed; it being a paid apk; so any modifications to it will cause it to break. Also we're not allowed to post paid apps on these forums.
