new one is workin great, thanks for the hardwork Conap!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Therev29:
Worked great, thanks!!

My buddy went a ahead and tried it on his Droid 2 without a nandroid.. sigh..

Now his says roaming indicator. Tried *228 and re flashing his rom but still there any suggestions before I do a wipe for him?

wiped data and back to normal. Thought I'd add he's running fission rom.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] N-Forced:
Yea I can share em no problem, and to answer your question no this will not work for incredibly re-engineered. Conap in JsChiSurf''s carrier mod for sense based roms the status_bar_expanded.xml is the file that controls the carrier banner text. Maybe you could work with him to create a program that would edit that file to create the necessary mods to change the banner on sense roms?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
yes just delete the data/eri.xml file and reboot....is fission rom a motoblur rom or what kind of overlay does that have?

Edit: I looked at fission rom and it is an aosp rom. Did your friend try any special characters?

Just for reference for those that get a roaming indicator you can pull the eri.xml file from the phone and open it...it should open in your browser and show you what character is causing the issue.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] axv91:
You are just the best good sir! Thank You!! As for the app, yea i would love to help. I don't know much about the xml editing and stuff though, but i can test it no problem. :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jdwhite87:
I guess you have to be s-off for this to work? Wont work on my aria. I press set name and the toast pops up almost instantly. I reboot and it still says at&t. I'm running cm7.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
It's not an s-off issue probably a gsm issue...this was written more geared to cdma phones specifically verizon. The aria might not get the carrier name from the same place.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jdwhite87:
Ahhh. OK thanks!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] meazz1:
Thanks, it's working great on my CM#2.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] vtjay:

Stock Sense Rom (Rooted)

Any way to make this work in a stock sense rom (rooted)? Loved to get rid of Verizon Wireless.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] N-Forced:
Yea but you need to either hex edit or decompile and edit with a xml editor. Just follow the instructions in the thread I linked to.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jesssiii:
Worked like a charm! Thank you so much!

Don't suppose you have (or know where to find) a white circle battery for CM6?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Therev29:
No special characters just letters and some numbers.

Thanks for the quick answer and info!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RyanTX:
Love it, works awesome on CM7!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ksidirt:
Ditto.

Got this working on a senseless rom with power control mod in notification dropdown. I changed the background to black, but have 2 white lines above and below the power control widget. Does anyone know which files need changing to make those black?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jesssiii:
Works for me on CM7 nightly #5, no white bars. My status bar is black and pull down is transparent.

Also worked for me on Incredibly Re-Engineered, which it's not supposed to? I ran the senseless version but still sense, right?

Oops, no didn't work with senseless rom.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sharper4:
Anyone get this working with SkyRaider Athena?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gr8nole:
I have it working on Magnolia, which is similar to Athena. You may need to follow the link someone posted for Roms without an eri.xml file.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Psiphon:
You can use special characters like the quotation marks and greater/less than signs by using entity references (either using an entity name or number):

" (quotation mark) use "

< (less than sign) use either < or & #60 ; (without the spaces)

> (greater than sign) use either > or & #60 ; (without the spaces)

I hope this helps!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] itsmefu:
Thanks for the app, works great. Nice work.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
ah very helpful info....never thought of this. Thanks!!

Added quote to OP
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] blackstallion:
Quick question. Since I never roam, I'm not sure if the carrier name will change in the task bar or lockscreen when roaming? Or is that just a permanent label placed there by the carrier? Like the idea of changing it but don't wanna mess with it if it's linked to roaming.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] JerseyFF:
Roaming Icon

I dont have the answer to the question you posed, however bear in mind that when roaming, your bars will have an "R" overtop of them to reflect the roaming status.

Note the icons in the Device Manual (pdf See Page 40)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Your phone receives a signal from the towers. The eri.xml file which is what this app edits reads that signal to display when the phone is roaming. The name in the status bar actually has nothing to do with roaming. I'm not sure if that name would change to let you know your roaming either way wether it's been edited or not since my phone never actually roams but my educated guess would be that it would still work how it's supposed to when roaming. So if it's supposed to show roaming when roaming then it probably still will. Editing the file will not cause the phone to roam though as long as it's not in a roaming area. Does vzw still have plans that charge for roaming in the US?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
There is no way this mod will make you phone roam.... it just a text that displays a name when you are connected to a network. i remember when i flashed a evo rom and it booted into my phone and said sprint on it. i wasn't on the sprint network it just said it because of the text in the xml.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] blackstallion:
If you read my original post, I was never concerned that this mod would make my phone roam.

What I was concerned about is exactly the point you bring up; does this text simply display the verizon txt regardless of what network you're actually connected to or does it display the actual network you're on...I think this question was basically answered two posts up...also, I'm not sure if verizon actually still has roaming areas in the U.S.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Oh. Nvm then.

Roaming

So, after using version 1.2 on my OG Droid running CM7 RC2, I'm getting a carrier name of 'Roaming Indicator On' instead of what I try and set. :confused:

Any ideas how to solve this?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Tommymac1039:
Got this apk for virtuous 3.2?

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Did you get my email reply? If not I'll say it here for future reference if others have the issue...if the app will not work and leaves you with a messed up notification area or a roaming indicator you can delete data/eri.xml and it will reset the phone back to what you had originally. You can delete it through adb or possible through root explorer or similar app if you have access to the data folder.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] PyroHoltz:
Thanks, I was able to use the terminal and delete the eri.xml file and everything reverted back to normal.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Scott Sawyer:
Thanks for the app. Had something similar on my old touch pro (thanks xda) and was hoping to find something similar for my inc. was not disappointed. Like the scrolling on the home screen.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Smabbage:
Thanks for this app. It's great fun. I think it's funny that my made up network goes to the Cyanogen Devs when my phone sends it's carrier information for their stats log. :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Tommymac1039:
Using incrom version 1.4 do you have a zip or apk file for the program or application file for the thing to change from verizon to whatever I want like my name? Sorry I dropped out of high school my english writing is not so hot.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
If your referring to the ccname app I fixed the link in the first post. My web host shutdown so had to re upload it.

Using Warm Z TwoPointTwo RLS1 and it doesnt seen to work..
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Yes it only works with aosp roms...sense roms will not read the eri.xml file in the data directory.

Very Awesome! no issues.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Thought i'd try and make it a little easier...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dustinb17:
I'm loving the shortcut buttons at the bottom to add the special characters. Do you know of any others that we can type in manually?

The Radio toggle to change it is a nice touch too, makes testing things out MUCH easier.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
I think most of the other characters i tested worked ok by just typing them on the keyboard normally. Yeah definitely more fun then rebooting your phone every time lol. I did have a few times where I had to push the set name button twice before it would cycle to airplane mode but it should work out alot better then before. Of course you might want to be aware not to play with the app while in the middle of a phone call though :D
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] semi_n00b:
After changing my eri, i rebooted, and now it says "Roaming Indicator On" and shows the roaming symbol. im definitely not roaming in my own house lol

im on version 1.2 cm7.0.0rc-2 on the droid

Edit*

I also never saw the toast notification confirming the eri change
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Did you put anything besides letters in name? it will show roaming if it can't read the eri.xml file correctly even if the phone isn't actually roaming. I would try v1.3 so you don't have to reboot each time you test and try doing some different names and see what happens. It should work ok with your setup.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] phaze one:
Works perfect on CM7#31 nightly thanks!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Awesome!! I even snuck my malicious code past Lookout....I'M KIDDING lol.....
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] semi_n00b:
I've tried with letters, question mark, with symbol shortcut buttons, and the roaming indicator keeps coming back.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] phaze one:
Hahaha! Nice.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
You can delete the data/eri.xml file on your phone through adb or a file explorer app on your phone and it will go back to what you had originally. Not sure why it's not working on the D1 as it really should if your running CM.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] semi_n00b:
Sure, i know where to find it, i'll come back with results

Edit** Tried deleting data/eri.xml, toggled airplane mode, and still came up with the error..
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Ok...also if you want to try running the app and then pull the eri.xml file from the phone and pastebin it I could take a look to see if it's not creating it correctly.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] semi_n00b:
Ok, I fixed it, when I deleted the eri.xml the firstt time, I deleted it, THEN switched airplane mode. Then I rebooted and the problem persisted, so I did it again, but I made sure I was already in airplane mode, and now it works
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
Cool glad you got it working....

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
I believe it will use whatever font you have loaded on your phone....not 100% sure on that...this app only changes the xml file that the phone gets the text to display from. It wouldn't be possible to use a png either.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] AyoJake:
does this work on evo?

if not is there any chance of messing my phone up?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
It might work on evo if it's an aosp based rom. It won't mess your phone up either way. If all you get is a flashing roaming symbol then just delete /data/eri.xml and reboot and you should be back to where your currently at.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] AyoJake:
i tried it and it didnt work and i got somethin about roam off then it went back to saying sprint in the top so idk if im good or not seems to be working fine.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] simplicity baby:
I have an Evo, running deck's latest rom, and this app works perfectly for me (my kid even uses this on her Evo as well, and she is running latest CM7 nightly). This is by far the easiest way to change carrier name, cdma workshop took too long lol.

Never had the issue u posted about, and I flash new roms at least once a week. Like the previous post before yours, are u running an asop rom or on sense? Never tried it on sense, but I can tell u it works perfectly on a rooted Evo running asop.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Conap:
This won't work on sense based rom's at all. There are 2 reason's that you get the flashing roaming indicator. One is that this trick doesn't work with the rom your on or the second reason is if you put in special characters that the xml can't decipher. If you've never used it on your phone I would suggest trying it with all letters first then if it works you can try some special characters to see what works. The shortcut buttons for special characters in the app will work fine though.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] asutherland:
Hi there,

Question for ya... I tried running your app, it did successfully create the eri.xml with my desired text under \data\. However, after a restart it didn't seem to take any effect. I then took a look at the hex code in the framework-res.apk, and it doesn't appear to be using that one either. It says Verizon Wireless in the framework-res.apk eri.xml, but I'm actually on Rogers.

On my lock screen and on my status bar it currently says Rogers. It's been that way only since I put my Rogers SIM card in the phone. I assume therefore that Android is reading the info from the SIM card itself. Is there any way to alter this so it doesn't say Rogers?

My phone details:

Motorola Milestone (ex-telus)

Unlocked: Yes (using PIN bought online, now on Rogers network)

Rooted: yes

Android version: 2.2.1

thanks!

Andrew
