To remove the shadow you need to put a blank/transparent file named IconDarkeningOverlay.png in com.apple.springboard

Ok sorry. You need to replace AppIconShadow.png (3G/3GS) or [email protected] (4) with a transparent file named the same. They are in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileIcons.framework
