Changing the carrier display name of the Shadow

[Guest blink55184]

I was able to change the display name of my carrier from T-Mobile to whatever I want…However it does not last through a soft reset, nor does it last if you use the Comm Manager to turn the phone off then back on.

To edit it, navigate to:

HKLM>System>State>Phone and edit “Current Operator Name” to whatever you’d like.

Maybe someone can finagle a way to make it last a reset--- Here are a few other strings I was playing with trying to get it to work:

HKLM>Software>Microsoft>RIL>Operator Names

HKLM>Software>HTC>SIM

HKLM>Software>HTC>SIM>ONS>ONS Value

tnx very much for the info, although it also doesn't seem to last when the phone goes to sleep ... i've been looking to change the carrier name in my previous post

i already tried

HKLM>Software>Microsoft>RIL>Operator Names

and it doesn't seem to work w/ the neo interface :( ... i'll try the other ones and look more into it

Yeah, I saw that thread when I was trying this- I read it and tried the stuff too...No luck

Freddy pointed out this utility that claims to be able to change the carrier name

Neither he or I have tried it....

I think the operator name is initialized everytime the phone searches for a carrier. I doubt there would be a way to stop that from happening....correct me if I am wrong!!
