Ciao, I thought it would be nice to share with you this collection of bar files took from all the 10.3 leaks, (the latest ones posted by Adam Szucs are included) these bar files are the ONLY FULL AND USEFUL working bars from 10.3 ready to work on 10.2.1, and are all tested by me... For those who want the phone always perfectly working, don't like bugs and watermarks, but still want to feel some of 10.3 look .
(UPDATE: Last collection had intelligent assistant bar which caused crashes after reboot and adobe reader having issues, both removed. Added new file manager with search function working, choose between the two available. About calculators I suggest to use the one from 10.2.1, cause this one has issues with tips and converter. DocstoGo, Smarttags and twitter removed, were having some issues.)
UPDATE 2 ( Blackberry World removed, BlackBerry updated it via OTA... use that version. If you already installed the old version then you'll need to go back to 10.2.1 version and then update it via OTA. link at the end of the post.)
Browser (from 10.3.0.442, runs smooth, maybe drains a bit more battery. the one from .700 had a issue when opening multiple tabs)
Calculator (almost fully working, but tip and converter tasks may have some issues. Not reccomended if you need these things.)
Compass (New Icon, best of 10.3 working. something strange but takes the north... not recomended if you use it a lot)
Wallpapers (to make 10.3 wallpapers to be default "system" wallpapers on 10.2.1, after reboot.)
SMS (New icon, same of 10.2.1)
Weather (from 10.3.0.296, same of 10.2.1 but new icon and the only weather bar working from the 10.3s)
Box (new icon, works.)
DropBox (new icon, works.)
Help ( maybe no one uses this... but works and I like the icon LoL)
File Manager 1 (from latest bars, new icon, flat design and smooth but search function not working)
File Manager 2 (same new icon, not flat design but everything working.)
Video Editor (From the first 10.3 leak, the only one working but at least you get slow motion )
WITH a dark or black wallpaper to hide the icon backgrounds and these new icons your 10.2.1 will taste more like 10.3
Tips: With DocuShortcut from BlackBerry World you'll be able to create shortcuts to your apps with the icon you like, also without using 10.3 bars.
SCREENSHOTS:
New full working active frames (File Manager, BlackBerry World and Weather here) :
Don't blame me if your device won't work anymore ecc... You do everything at your own risk. Additionally,10.3 clock (unable to start chronometer but the rest is working) and some other things from latest or other bars are NOT included, because are not really FULL working or really enjoyable. but if you want you can sideload them too, here's link of some, just to mention: (bars not tested by me and some not really working) https://mega.co.nz/#F!ldhxVTYQ!RuYq50xzEc5MT7_4z_U4Hg
All of these seem to be working for me except for Adobe reader. It just crashes whenever I try to open a .pdf. Is anyone else having this problem? It's sticking around even after a couple of restarts.
Sorry, Adobe reader seemed to be working at the beginning... now it doesn't work for me neither o.o just sideload the one from 10.2.1 again, i'm gonna update the list
Also, and I should have said this originally, thanks for sharing this!

Link updated, 2 file managers inside it, choose between the two, both same icon but the first one is perfectly working, the second works and has new flat design, but has issues with search function, enjoy
The docs to go file messes up opening files. I can open docs to go but no files.
Going to revert back to 10.2.1 version. Was some files possibly missed in the list? Looks like it was just the launcher in this bunch not the actual program bar files.
Just found out in my device (z10 with .3247) the converter tab in 10.3 calculator from the above list does NOT work. In my device, only ONE side of the conversion field allows input. Anyone else have this problem? I will revert back to the 10.2.1 version if I can find it as I use this function fairly often.
Ok Guys, List updated... you were right. The Calculator had some issues with tip and converter tasks (but they worked for me most of the times) anyway I don't reccomend this calculator anymore, better use the one from 10.2.1. About Docs to go, yes, it sometimes didn't read the files, and was only able to write down... removed it,use the one from 10.2.1. Also removed twitter which seems to be the same of blackberry world and smartags, which only readed tags and not barcodes. use the one from 10.2.1.
1st of all I want to say thank you so much!! You have no idea how much I wanted this.. I wanted to ask if someone can make a mirror other than Mega pleaaaassseee??? It would be much appreciated!!

Ok.. done downloaded some files last night.
As mentioned by OP, docs to go and calculator doesn't really work.
Pdf on me is fine working great. So does file manager synching and linking.
The only issue I had is I install back older calculator bar file and succeed, but docs to go is a no go.
It shows all the files but tapping doesn't open it.
I extracted few previous OS with sachesi and tried side loading all the docs to go files but still doesn't work.
