Any way to make stock Gingerbread look like ICS - Xperia Play Themes and Apps

Well, after knowing the bad news about ICS, I would like to ask if is there any way to make my Xperia Play menus look as the ones on ICS.
I have 2.3.4 Gingerbread, official, rooted.
Thanks.

There's a theme around here somewhere for the Play on 2.3.
Ill try find it

You can buy the awesome app "statusbar+" and can theme your statusbar on stockrom to wich every look you like

One solution: Holo Launcher and a ICS wallpaper :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I recommend Gin2Ics, you can flash the whole ICS-based rom, or just the ICS theme, which is also very good.

If you don't want to change rom, flash jjkkyu Xperia S UI for Xperia Play Extreme Final Edition theme pack. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546134

Gin2ICS is very good rom (thanks to vocal1992). Very snappy and amazing looks. I think you should try this as there is option for both locked and unlocked bootloader.

I had Gin2ICS with HoloLauncher.
It looked exactly like ICS, except for the Sony apps and Settings obviously.

I agree, Gin2Ics is the way to go. It's fast, stable smooth and looks like ICS; even has the status bar. It's updated constantly and the developer is great
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631144
Check it out, the instructions are fairly simple and it works on both locked and unlocked bootloaders. PM me of you need any help installing. Trust me I've been using it for about 3 weeks and I've never looked back.

Gin2Ics almost works R800x
So I flashed this to my R800x with a locked boot loader and it almost works. The issues that did show are the dialer/contacts is a little messed up and no cdma base band so no connection. I did find a post about flashing base bands to a locked boot but seems it has stalled a bit.
Any ideas or maybe point me to a post where i can figure this out??

you should try Gin2ICS ROM by vokal1992
it's great ​

CENTERclock on gingerbread
Just wondering if any one knows how to edit the statusbar on gingerbread (centerclock).. Would be really awsome if ant one knew how..

U can still use the theme though

Gin2ics is great, but it show me some errors like: random devicemonitor crashing, preintalledservices.apk crash (fixed putting stock app) and an unfixeable com.android.phone crash forbids me to make calls) Maybe that I've installed it in stock rom .42
Finally I opted by Nabeel's ICS. Cool.

you have tutorial how to flash Gin2ics in first post, believe me,phone looks great after flashing and no errors using this fantastic rom

I'm looking into it. For now I will say no because I don't want you to nuke any changes that were made to the updated rom.
If a update to the theme is needed I will get it out ASAP for you.

Okay, i create theme for my mods )
@Fuss, I have reloaded ICS on my mobile and when i update with this zip the reoaded ICS settings are wiped off as both of it carry SystemUI.apk. Will it be possible to integrate both the apk in one.
@fuss, I have three requests:
1. Can you please update your cm9 rom with this multitasking enhancement.
2. Can you make flashing INFINITUM idiot proof single step flash (without alpha2)?
3. Can you put a clean wipe script in rom installer (making it idiot proof).
Thanks for your work!!

[REQUEST] Building GB ROM

Hello. I was just hoping that someone could build a good-looking gingerbread rom, just because our phone is more comfortable with it (low battery-draining, fast). I am using oxygen gb by popdog123 right now, and it's a very good example, but it could be creatly polished. For example, I don't like the typical gingerbread lockscreen-clock, and there are room for improvements. I know that popdog123 was planning to build Cerebrum GB from scratch based on gb(I was thinking, finally!), but haven't seen him for a while, so the project seems rather dead.
I've been testing a lot of roms based on ics and jb, and I just can't stick with the battery drain issues, as well as lag here and there. For our phone to be snappy and healthy, we should take a few steps back and try to accomplish a good, stable, well-designed gingerbread rom, with some customizations available.
Do you agree?
