Yes, it's possible!
You just have to take care with the lines you are adding.

Built.prop permissions need to be 644 on JB, if it is not - you get a bootloop.

Try the app Build Prop Editor..... (link)
With this you can safely edit the build.prop whenever you want.. just make sure that you know what you are doing or else you will definitely get a bootloop....

That's it

disabling CRT and enable back the stock fade-off animation. changing build prop doesn't get back fade off instead it just go black. It need to use APK tool to edit framework-res.apk to original as stated above. And my APK tool doesn't works. Hoping for some kind guy help on this.

I think that you need to deodex it before that change. Black one didn't work for me untill I deodex with Frapeti's files. And I think that we can't use that now, because there were some changes in new fw, and we will go back to previous with some things. So deodex it, or wait to someone do that.

In that case, maybe better wait for some custom ROM, and custom recovery. You do not want to end up with soft bricked phone, and to reflash JB again... My friendly advice.
Main thing is to change SystemUI.apk, and this one is for deodexed system. Stock is odexed.
And bobfrantic did this. He put mine SystemUI.apk in root.zip, like he said in that post, and he flashed it in recovery. And he renamed stock SystemUI.apk to SystemUI.apkold, and SystemUI.odex to SystemUI.odexold.
P.S. And if you do not get anything - here it is in short. It is file that gives you black or transparent status bar. The one where clock, batery level, signal level are located. And it is for Jelly Bean, not for Gingerbread!

Just to correct you shut_down, I didn't put the systemui.apk in the root.zip. I only rooted my phone then used root explorer to put your transparent systemui.apk into the system/app after renaming the originals. it was easy but I wouldn't recommend this to a noob or unexperienced person for sure

Can't remember now, changed color in xml of SystemUI.apk. Search XDA with "change status bar color" And for icons, I think you need to change png's inside of SystemUI.
But did it look like the s4 statusbar?

I do not know how S4 statusbar looks. And in that time mod is made S4 didn't exist. It is just transparent instead of gray background. Same icons as on stock.

Editing the stock ROM

Is there any way to decompile the stock rom and delete some unwanted apps and recompile it?
You might as well make a script to debloat and flash that...
Modifying stock ROMs would be a risky process since corrupt ones can brick you hard.

yes you can and it is not word decompile
you cant just edit stock rom from odin flashable rom
you have to take backup and use android kitchen for building rom after editing for setting up kitchen look here
use apk multitool to decompile apks and edit it and to recompile use the same with the same
for theming edit systemui.apk and framework-res.apk and tw_framework-res.apk

That's probabily because the filesystem needs to be remounted read/write.
And for that, you need to have your phone rooted (which it should with that rom).
Use this app.
It's a nice and simple build.prop editor.
Root and busybox are required for this app to work correctly.
Thanks
