Will there be any tutorials on how to change the dang status bar from something other than white :) for the m835?

I have been trying numerous tutorials but nothing seams to work.

Edit: Looks like the tutorial I followed for Deodexing the phone did not work.
Any one have a good set of tutorials that worked for this phone? My goal is to be able to theme the phone with a black status bar, different font colors, and new notification icons etc.
thanks in advance.
 
I am currently working on a update.zip for use with ultrajack recovery to deodex the m835. Ill share all steps to a working deodex for themes etc as soon as i get it going.

Edit: Ok, Here is where I could use some help. Manually deodexing using xUltimate-v2.2.8 and adb shell, or update.zip using ultrajack method containing the deodexed files from xUltimate-v2.2.8 result in the same problem. Stuck at the Boot logo for ages and then to a black screen with the backlight on. Help!!! lol.

Oh PlayfulGod that would be awesome. Really Really awesome.
I am really interested in learning where i was going wrong deodexing the stock rom.
Im toying with installing CM7 but i was trying to put together a good update.zip for people who just want to theme only etc.

Much thanks for any assistance, and total rockin thanks for a deodexed rom or help getting me there. :-D

Actually That rom is quite awesome. Very sleek and fast once the metro bloatware is removed. But that's just my opinion :)
It was a joke you jerk!
