[Q] Change Carrier Name on Stock Rom - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Okay so i am wondering is there a way to change the carrier name on a stock or custom ROM, Ive already tried the QPST, and CDMA WS Methods and neither work weather it be the stock ROM or a custom ROM.
.
On the stock ROM the carrier name is blank when in CDMA Mode, except when i switch to GSM only it shows T-Mobile, and on all of the custom roms it only shows my MCC and MNC ie 310012.... is there a way to modify this that i haven't thought of?

Do you want to change the banner?
Or do you want to change your network provider?

yea i would prefer to do it on a stock ROM, due to the fact that most of the custom roms Ive tried don't have the ability to switch to GSM on the fly

It depends on your ROM. With CM7 access is under
Settings - CyanogenMod settings - interface - status bar tweaks
I found a way to do it in terminal emulator on my old OG Droid a long time ago. Good keyword for your search is "carrier banner"
Good luck!

If you are talking about what I think you are - there is a thread located here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=872222
It is obviously a little more work than just changing what it says, but it can be done.
Yup I used mystery's guide to change mine.
If you have the AOSP Lock screen mod it also shows up on there.

Accessing ##DATA# on MIUI

I have a Evo 4G on Boost but when I flash a non-sense ROM I can't access ##DATA# from the dialer to change the MMS to myboostmobile.com, is there any other way to change it without a sense rom? I tried using a sense rom to change it then flash to MIUI but it resets it back to the original URL. TIA
Which android version you have?
this right here......is my.. pretty boy swag!
My understanding is you have to be running a Sense ROM for those functions to work.

You're exactly right. :good:
Use voice dial and say "open apn settings". It will pop up an make sure what you said, but it should work if you said it right

Can The Carrier Name Be Changed?

As the title suggests, is there anyway to change what the carrier name says on the lock screen and on the drop down notification window? I've searched around but can't find a lot.
Thanks.

No I don't think so mate.
The carrier name is set by your network values.
So if your on "Orange" for example, there is no way for you to change it to say "O2".
I'm using Leedroid V6.4.0, and in the Tweaks section I can change the carrier caption or hide the carrier name
yeah you can on viper rom as well, just use venom tweaks to change it
can even add the carrier logo if you wanted

SuiteTools doesn't have the option however I just came across this apk which works a treat. I have attached it in case anyone else wants to give it a go.

[Q] [Question] Change Default APN's

I managed to port a rom from T-Mobile to AT&T, and it worked very well aside from the default APN's
are T-Mobile still. How can I change the default APN so when the rom first boots, it uses the proper Telus APN???

I know how to change the properties and make it work, but I want my rom to load Telus APN's by default, so that people who use my rom dont have to waste their time switching their APN to Telus again.

At&t 4g lte icon on tmobile note 4

Well I got the lollipop at&t 4g lte icon product name from TEKHD and it works good and i noticed it also takes off the sfinder and quick connect.
If you guys wanna try it out you need build.prop and edit this two lines and reboot.
ro.product.name=trlteuc
ro.product.device=trlteatt
All I had to change was product.name=to trlteatt nothing else unless your on Canadian firmware
This has actually been posted and discussed before in several forums. You can also try
trltevzw - verizon
Trltespr - sprint
Trltexx - international
And a few more that I can't think of right now.
do I need to be rooted to do this? i tryed but it is read only.
Build.prop editor works best with root.
Is there a wat I can get the LTE icons and kill "ATT" like in Gravity Box. I'm on TEK rom and love it, but the carrier text tweak is not killing the "ATT"
One thing that tripped me up was the persistent gap in the layout. In a Doh moment I figured out it was the spot for the download booster ucin, typically shut off.
Working, thanks a lot. All i changed was product name too
Has anyone figured out how to get this to work on 5.1.1 roms?

Along with the build prop edits you must also change the sale_code.dat file in the csc folder from tmo to att. Works on the latest Tek rom. I'm using one from a stock Att Rom, but editing the file with file explorer, etc..may work as well.
I'd like to see screen captures of the different logos....they may all suck? LOL

Does changing these files have any effect on anything other than just icons? Would changing tmo to vzw affect any other things because of gsm/cdma differences?
on my side, i have a sm-n910w8 wich is a canadians version....it worked perfectly!! i alway liked to have the carrier id on the status bar (i"m a rare one i guess loll) it didn"t change anything about the gsm/cdma thing...
well....have installed marshmallow on my note 4......have tested to see if we still able to change the data icon...and onm my side on stock rom android 6 i"m not able anymore to change anything....i change the ro.product.name and the sale_code.dat and it change nothing???? somebody have tested it to see???
thanks.......
Is this possible with MM 6.0.1 n910t?
Sent from my SM-N920G using XDA-Developers mobile app
should have made an update since my last thread......i"ve marshmallow on my note 4...you can"t change the build.pro to have for example the at&t data icon since marshmallow is still not available for the note 4....this is why the build.pro change mod doesn"t work......
Well.....saw that att upgraded finally the note 4 to marshmallow....have made a trie to have the att data icon by the build.prop.....it didn't worked.....maybe i made something wrong?? Someone had succes to make the change?
Thanks in advance.........
