Is it possible to change network name?

Hello.
First I want to say thank you to everybody, because I learned so much with this forum, and specially to all "ROM cookers".
Because I don't know very much about ROM cooking I want to ask if it is possible to change the network name that appears on the HTC Universal, because it is an old name, it shows as "UMTS Xfera" and the comercial name for that network is "Yoigo". I don't know if it so much work or if I can do it myself, but I don't know which file I should change.
And one more thing, I have been looking to create a .CAB file with my operator settings without luck because I only get some of the settings (I used a .CAB file for an other operator changing the settings) but no the full configuration, is there a "how to" to create the file?
Thank you in advance.
Regards.

yes, i just cant remember, google it.

Thank you Midget_1990, after a while I found how to modify it, you have to add an entry to the registry with the operator and network code (CCCOO) and the name you want to be shown on HKLM/Software/Microsoft/RIL/OperatorNames.
I have posted it here for anyone who needs it.
I will continue looking for a CAB file with GPRS & MMS settings for my operator.
Regards.

Ok so How you do it ?

Here you have the instructions (from Modaco Wiki):
-----------------------------
Customize operator's name
To show specified operator name set
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\ONSDisplayRule=0 (DWORD decimal)
And then at
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\RIL\Operator Names
add the code and the name to display. The value is 5 digits "CCCOO", where CCC is 3-digits country code, and OO is 2-digits operator's code. For example:
"25099"="BEE LINE"
For country and network code, go to wikipidea for [mobile country code|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listofmobilecountrycodes] and [network code|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MobileNetworkCode]
To show operator name based on the SIM card used (eg for cases where dual SIM adapter are used), set
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\ONSDisplayRule=1 (DWORD decimal)
For my dual-SIM adaptor, when I switch between SIMs, the phone with default settings showed always one and the same name, until I reboot the device. Then, it was not able to retrieve operator's name from one of the SIM cards I use. Probably it is an adaptor fault. But anyway, after I changed ONSDisplayRule to 0 and set more up-to-date names for operators that I use, I now always see the name of the operator of the chosen SIM.

Some help needed for Voip Dialplan on Wm6

Hello every one,
Using different cabs and advices from this forum, I managed to get using the native internet calling feature of my device.
I'm able to make calls, but something is still bothering me with the dialling process: I have to re-enter the entire phone number that I want to call before every call I place since my sip provider (Voipbuster) requires that the number starts with (00) plus the (international area code) while all my numbers in contact are stored like (+) plus (international area code).
Can any one helps me out with an Ipdialplan.xml model, that fixes this issue?
Of course, it should works no matter the total amount of digits the contact number includes. 11, 12 etc.
Thanks in advance.

[QUESTION] Two numbers on the same sim card.

Does the magic by default or any other android builds support having two numbers on the same sim card?
And if so has anyone tried how you can call/text from a specific number?
Thanks in advance ppl

My friend this is a general question.. So it should be placed on the General threads... bla bla bla bla...
Now back to the answer.. I think that the question you are making is related to Twin SIM cards. This can have two numbers on the same SIM. If android will run use this cards without prob.. why not? Never tested, but If old phones can do it why not Android?

Not an expert on this but isn't all handling of this happening outside the phone and at the mobile provider ?

Yes, is out of phone question in my opinion too.. But, we can take this question if this phone is capable of reading Twin SIM cards.

Doesn't the phone OS allow the user to choose between numbers?
I posted this under the android subforum cause my question is if the OS supports it and not the hardware.
If the sim has 2 numbers you must be able to choose for example from which one to send an SMS from, or from which one to make an outgoing call.
This is something that android will have to handle.
Am I saying something incorrect here? :/

I managed to find the proper name for this twin sim thingie.
It's called ALS "Alternate Line Service" and is NOT supported by any Android device so far.
I'll try posting on the android google group for some more info.

Dialled number changing software for android sought.

I live in a country where it is obligatory to dial long distance company prefix for calling other areas and countries, thus I can´t have all numbers stored in an international standard notation. Like I can´t store a UK number like +44 1273-701648, I have to store it like 00XX441273701648 (where XX is a two digit long distance company code, like 23 or 41 ). Same with in-country numbers - I can´t store them neither in international nor in regular local form, for example - I live in area code 011, so to store a phone number in area code (081) 3421-3266, I have to store it as 0XX8134213266 (where XX is a two digit long distance company code, like 23 or 41 ). At the same time, I have to store numbers in my own area without any prefix at all. So far so good, as long as I don´t leave my area or country.
If I will go to another area, like (081) - I will have to cut off all 0XX81 prefixes since I will be in roaming locally there. At the same time I will have to add 0XX11 to all numbers from my native area code. Worse - if I will go to an area from which I have no numbers stored let´s say 019, I will have to keep ALL locally stored codes, like 0XX81... BUT also add 0XX11 to all phones from my native 011 zone.
When roaming abroad it is somwhat easier - I´ll have to cut off 0XX and add country code +55 to ALL numbers. But also I´ll have add area code 11 to all phone numbers from my native 011 zone.
When I was using WM6.5, Magicall by Mobiion was able to do it for me. Is there anything similar under Android?

Did you check android settings?
There is an option for automatic prefixes, atleast on my i9000.
It might be possible to make a widget that gives quick access to enable/disable the prefixes.

Nothing like this on my X10 mini pro. At least visibly, but I´ll try to look into it. Thank you!

Thank you everyone for feedback. I was advised to try out Prefixer and it is exactly what I needed.

[Q] "enable home country when roaming"

This is one of the phone settings in my DS.
Can anyone explain exactly what it means ?
I know the basics of roamiing but this one is beyond me.
A google search on that phrase reveals nothing ;-(
- Thanks !

It adds the international dial code to numbers in your contacts list when you're roaming .
Eg , if your phone is set up in Ireland , it adds +353 to the beginning of any dialed numbers when roaming .
It adds +44 to UK based phones when roaming.
It can be useful if you don't have your numbers saved with the internatiomal dial code .
Click on "home dialing" to see more options.
Hope this helps.

That's very useful to know for when I go on holiday.
Actually, I have set OUTLOOK to include +44 on all my numbers as "UK", so I probably won;t need to use the function - But at least I now now ;-)
