The theme contains few bugs which I can solve easily :) but my bandwidth restricts me to upload theme for a bug fix :D:D
Also the theme is not complete yet, say less that 40% themed :)
I will be releasing v2 tomorrow with bug fixes + some more themeing :) :)

Enough speech, here is the link

Download Link-

ICS theme v1


Instructions to flash-
1. Put the zip in your sd card
2. Flash it in recovery
No need to wipe anything, install it straight forward ;)

Thanks to Nelson Mascarenhas for testing the theme

The final and stable version will be posted on Jet 3.0 xda thread in themes section

Note: Many of you are thinking will this theme suck battery?, will it slow down the phone?
Well answer is NO!!, These themes are modified frameworks which is a system element and not any app or service which will keep running and draining battery
 
consider when i am home screen pressed menu button the icons are visible but not the text i mean the text colour is similar to background in certain cases
in root explorer too when i press menu button onyl icons are visible not the text varun please change that text colour

Yep I know that bug, Nelson told me :)
I have fixed it in v2 along with lots more theming ;)

open root exploer
system folder
mount as r/w system
edit build.prop
find ro.tylockscreen=true (search from the end its near it)
remove this line and save

lockscreen is same as shown in the screenshots,status bar also as shown but still the background wallpaper and icons background on home is same as adw theme
