The Rom Dosnt Seems to Work Well .. Here's The Solution :
Download This(A Fix-With Everything Working): DXKL2_Theme_ICS.rar
Copy It Into the SdCard Like This Structure : sdcard\clockworkmod\backup\2012-01-13.19.07.30
Now Open Clockwork Mod and goto Backup and Restore ...and Restore This Rom !! Now Status bar and Everything Else Would be working...but swype gives a Force Close so use Root Explorer and delete it From /system/app.
