THANKS! That was a spectacular video. I want to try that. However I worry a bit because in the comments to that video someone posted (only 3 hours ago) that Go Launcher updated its app and therefore its not possible to follow the tutorial. Not sure if that is true or not or if i could muddle my way through the tutorial but this is definitely a weekend project to try!!

My original post proves it works on the note 2. Running it now in fact. There hasn't been an update with go laucher since I set everything up so don't know what that post is about that you read. And the set up only takes about 30 minutes in my experience.
I just uninstalled go launcher and all necessary apps for this set up and reinstalled. No issues at all after following the tutorial again. Don't believe reviews or comments as they are filled with haters.

Since it's just XML... is it possible for one of the very talented devs here to make a Rezound TWRP 2.1 theme? I was hoping for one that looked... well like Rezound stuff... you know, red icons that matched our physical and red text and buttons and such. Maybe something less... sharp than the default theme?

Most launchers have a 'Force Launcher to stay in memory' setting. Not exactly sure where but I know for sure Go Launcher has this setting. Someone else will likely post where / how to get to the setting (or I will later today when Im not about to pass out).
Not all of us have root just yet so editing the build.prop isnt much of an option for us.

It is pretty well assumed if you are hanging out on xda you have rooted your phone at the very least. There has been a root method since before the phone was even officially released. So I am not sure who you are referring to.
Thanks for the tip OP.

A Nova Launcher representative responded with the following when asked for this functionality to be built in to their settings:
Those options stopped doing anything as of Gingerbread. Since Nova Launcher doesn’t support anything prior to ICS, much less Gingerbread, such options would serve no purpose.

The Go Launcher "System persistent" setting is in the Advanced settings. Don't know if it does anything or not? Can't tell.

I use Nemus launcher without a lag issue but it does re-draw sometimes. I'm am here to keep up with Note development and yes it is hard to resist modding with some cool options out there..but 3 out of 4 devices I have are "rooted" and one is not....this one. I think maybe some, like myself have waited to see official ICS for the Note drop. Meanwhile I get my flash-fix with the other 3!

I know by doing the build.prop change NOVA luancher runs way smoother. This tweak is also built into the noteworthy ROM. The difference is definitely noticeable.

One more thing ..make sure if your using adw ex..to disable scrolling cache....this helps with lag as well as all the rest of the good info posted here...
is there a reason why manufacturers or even launchers in vanilla android isn't default to stay in memory? launcher redraws just makes it feel and looked like a bug and ultimately deprive the user experience in my view.

lets see non rooting you can still get 1st ICS leak, 2nd ICS leak, install flipboard from the theme/apps section, Premium suite, learn more about your phone, ask questions you may have, learn tips, tricks, and fixes. Theres a lot more, but i think its enough to counter your argument.
i'm not rooted but have all the above mentioned and it has made a big difference. I have tried root several times and to be honest im happy the way it is right now and just tweak certain things i need for the time being. I dont have the time to constantly mess with my phone, so until the offical ICS is released i will probably stay unrooted
The title says it all... What im trying to achieve is to make the status bar semi transparent, and center up the clock. Im currently running scotts rom, I kindof like the stock look. Any help would be appreciated!!!

It will teach you the things you need to know to begin to LEARN to theme any rom.
The status bar is in SytemUI - after that you need to learn and experiment. Every ROM is different, sometime the files are in different diretories.
And on top of that each time the dev releases a new version you have to extract the .apk and re-theme it in case they made some changes.
It's a good starting point,
REMEMBER TO ALWAYS make a backup in recovery before you flash your themed apps, cuz even though I think I know what I'm doing, I've bootlooped them more than once!!!!
Another great tool is software called beyond compare.
Break apart the apks, put stock beside a molded stock one and see what was changed. You'll learn a good bit doing that

Will do, I appreciate that.
Going to start a ROM bounty here.
Plain and simple i love the idea of the ROM and would like to see a stable build for us.
Bounty will be played upon dev completing a stable build with no major bugs (ie. cell/data/3g,late working/MMS,GPS etc)
I know this can be done and would love to do it if i had the skill sets or the time.
Here's an idea for anyone interested or would like to know specifically what I'm talking about
