It's impossible for now to restore to 6.x but is it possible to completely change the UI of iOS 7 and get back iOS 6 UI with jailbreak? Will there be anything to do this?
Got a tip for us?

Not talking about theme, talking about UI. Like when you go into settings it will have iOS 6 UI, NC will be gray back, status bar will be the same in iOS 6, and animations have to be the same. Icons are the easy step 🙁 .
A theme should be able to change all of that , To change the UI completely would be a long and stressful process. Using a theme would simplify the process drastically.

That is theming...
Best guess, yes there will be, takes a lot of time to develop it though, JB has only been out for 6 days....

I thought if we change the animations and system things it wouldn't be, but you are the pro here 🙂 . Thanks for answers.

I've only been using an iPhone since iOS 5 so this is for all you veterans reading this thread-
Has the unwillingness of people to just accept change always been this bad?

Actually? No.
No offense to anyone, but these threads of going back to iOS6, either by downgrade or theming, are slightly pathetic.

That's not being charitable.
For whatever reason(s), some see the iOS6 look as more appealing.

Well... I thought that once jailbroken, the whole wide universe was supposed to open up to me immediately! Why don't those lazy devs get up and get me what I deserve! Not just icons... UI, dammit, UI!
6 days... pffft... I can code a whole new OS in 6 days.

Just saw this at idownloadblog. This is a good start for people on 7.x looking to replicate 6.x. Luckily for me I love iOS 7. Not to mention over half the stock apps are useless to me and are therefore buried in a folder and will likely be "poofed" when MS is updated for the 5s. Therefore, the over-exaggeration of the bright, ugly stock icons is a moot point since I don't use most of them anyways. I assume this is true for a lot of iOS 7 haters. But that's the beauty of it all (no pun intended, I swear!)...we all like what we like and therefore should have choices! And jailbreaking gives us those choices. Only a matter of time until another package comes along which takes the 6.x theming even further.

I was one of the biggest resistors of ios7. After I used it for a few weeks I can't imagine going back. It's not perfect but it's got design cues way ahead of it's predecessor.
