Well my experience is most of the times, you fail to solve such problems with the help of written instructions. You can get out of this problem easily if you see a practical demonstration. I would advise you to search this problem in you tube. I am sure you will widgetsoid within half an hour or even sooner.

I haven't seen the DX Liberty ROM, but to strip the power widget in the status bar pulldown background you'd need to decompile the SystemUI APK, and edit the status bar expanded XML...stripping all of the statusbar quickpanel code from that XML

Okay...I stripped the SystemUI of the power widget pulldown quickpanel...was a little different in that the status expanded XML didn't have the actaul code for the quickpanel in it, but rather only a command to include (call up) a separate quickpanel XML that they had added into the layout folder... so I stripped that include command, but left the quickpanel XMLs since there were like four of them with quickp[anel references and didn't want to strip the actual XMLs as well in case they were referenced from other XMLs or APKs.... but the power widget panel should be stripped from the statusbar pulldon now...

I haven't tested a DX install script so see if this update.zip works, hopefully I created a proper script to install the new SystemUI .... Also, in case some other aspects of the quickpanel remain, just make sure you can nandroid back...
I'm pretty certain this should take, but don't have a DX to text it on so just adding in the cautionery comments just in case...
