I found some stock apps a little too different to ICS's stock Holo theme so I decided to fix that.
These will only work on deodexed ROMs.
All icons by Zer0_Cool

Mms (with/without Next Line Mod):

All credit for the Next Line Mod must go to mikko3024 since it was his modified Mms.apk I themed.


Contacts (updated with fixed bottom actionbar and new icon):




Calculator:


Simply place the required apk file in /system/app/
Oh and make sure to backup the old apk file just in case.

UPDATE
I've seen some users having problems getting some of my apps to work.
If the app does/doesn't work for you could you post a comment telling me, please list the app you tried to install and the ROM you are running.

I copied this to system/app with root explorer and rebooted. But then had no mms app in app draw.

Edit: I am using nova launcher in case that makes a difference?

Thank you.

First time I'm tempted to forego the warranty and root the phone. Assuming that's all that's needed?

Sorry I'm not familiar with the term 'deodexed.'
No.. You need custom rom also .. The one whcih has all deodexed..

Deodexed means :

Apk files have respective odexes that devs use to supposedly save space. Deodexing means you convert it back to a .dex file and put it back inside the apk. This allows you to easily replace files (not having to worry about odexes), but the main point was to deodex services.jar so that you can change all text to different colors (such as the clock color to white) and to deodex services.jar, you need to deodex everything.
I have only rooted phone, with custom rom, but i cant use it also... As artvandelay440 said, stock ppl cant use it :)

Cheers

edit : I rooted phone, because it is easy to unroot it .. but im keeping stock rom still ... i want ota upd and rest.. And to be honest, im bit tired with flashing.. (one of the reasons i bought GN)

No foregoing warranty... If needed just unroot and you'll have your "warranty" back! =] And you need a deodexed rom... so you need to install a custom rom... such as GummyNex, AOKP, or CM9 builds, etc.
