[APP]carrier name

This is an app that changes what carrier name is diplayed in for example the lock screen and the status bar. It requires root because it modifies system files, and because it uses root it's potentially dangerous. Use it at your own risk, I'm not responsible if your device explodes in your face!
I had much trouble figuring out how to do this so I wanted to spare others the trouble by making this app. Please send me bug reports so I can fix any bugs you find.
Update1: Don't use any special characters because it will be used in an xml file so for example a double quote sign will break the file.
Update2: This will probably not work on the evo with stock rom and will not work with any rom that only shows what network you're connected to. This app only changes the carrier name wich is taken from your sim card. There are some roms that allows you to change this for example Cyanogenmod 6 where you can change so that it shows your spn.
Update3: I'm currently working on making this app work on all android devices by patching framework-res.apk
This app is also availble on the android market for $0.99, please consider buying the app it would make my face go

So I can put my own name instead =P

i will try it now, if it works well, i will uninstall and buy from the market, thanks for your hard work

not working on Dell Streak DJ_Steve's ROM v1.5.2 froyo,
tried puttin in my name with and without brackets and rebooting, didnt work.
I would really like to do this to totally debrand my device.

I really like like the concept of this app especially since the ways available to do this on the Evo are somewhat extensive.
Unfortunatley, this first version is not working on my Evo. I'm running a stock rooted deodexed rom. I will keep following this thread.
P.S. I also tried putting in my name with and without brackets and nothing worked. Also pressing the reboot button in the corner didn't work.

If any of you have access to the terminal on your device and know how to use it please check if the app has made the file /system/etc/spn-conf.xml and make sure it has the following contents:
I hope I can fix so that it works for you, it works on my HTC tattoo with cm6 and my friends galaxy with cm6. Please help my find why its not working so I can fix the problems you are having.

The text in your status bar is the network you're currently connected to and the text in the app is your carrier name that is taken from your sim card. If you have cyanogenmod you can change if spn or plmn will be displayed, usually it will be son but otherwise I can help you sorry.

That probably means your status bar isn't showing the spn, what the app modifies. If you have a rom that allows you to change it to spn it would work if you can't, you'll just have to wait for an update.

yeah custom ROM, probably.
Thanks anyway I'll keep trying.

Worked like a charm ... thanks!
Thanx ...great job man...
Simple and good idea...

some screenshot from a java app!

I am sorry but I am failing to understand what this app is supposed to do. Do you have a better description or maybe a few screenshots? Thanks.

If it's the same thing from Windows Mobile, then it's an app that will let you run java apps on your phone. The same kind of programs that basically ruled Nokia for years.

What do you know? It works. However there are some real major glitches. If you remember, almost all JAR games etc depended on left/ right soft keys. And in my SGS there is no such thing.
I tried all buttons and keys on this phone, but to no avail. Also the resolution of the games leave a lot to be desired (though for this you cannot do anything from your end).
Any suggestions on the key bug that I have highlighted above will be really appreciated. But once again thanks for making this - LONG TIME PENDING!

دمت گرم!
thanks for this app brother!

Minecraft won't work as none Java application will, this is for J2ME applications/games.

Error message: Maybe no sd card or sd card is busy, please check it
I tried this JBED package and other different JBED versions (from 2.1 to 2.3.1).
The previous versions to 2.3.1 show an FC right after trying to open. ROM details are at the signature.
JBED version 2.3.1, the one contained in this package as well on the LeeDrOiD v3.3.1 ROM for Desire HD / Inspire 4G and the add-on at Android Revolution HD thread for Desire HD / Inspire 4G, doesn't show FC but all of them display a "Maybe no sd card or sd card is busy, please check it" message. So it isn't possible to install any jar.
Any ideas how to make JBED (or other Java VM) work with this Virtuous Unity 1.31 ROM?

I do apologize for the stupid question, but: how do I install this?

Screen distorted
Hi there,
I installed the zip through the stock recovery of gingerbread on my galaxy fit. It installed fine on my galaxy fit and I now have a java app in my app drawer. But when I run the app it searches the jar files on my sdcard (don't know why it also shows my framework.jar etc. system files). When I install and run the java app the screen becomes pixelated. I mean the app doesn't run correctly.. the screen is distorted.. I can't read or view anything. Please help me fix this !!

I'm proud of u man .. thanks a lot
p.s. I'll use this app for the same books u have

[Q] 4.2 - Hard freeze when attempting to play music files

Hello all,
I've recently upgraded to 4.2 using CyanogenMod 10.1. I understand this is not the "Cyanogen forum" -- I am not certain my issue is related to the ROM.
Whenever I attempt to play an MP3 file, located in "/storage/emulated/0/Music", the phone hard freezes and the battery must be removed to restore functionality.
I've tried using the following applications to do so.
- Google Play Music
- Apollo
- Android Music Player (from the market)
I've tried the following troubleshooting steps.
- Browse manually to afile, and try to open it with all three of those apps - all result in a hard freeze
- Allow the apps to find the files, which they do, then play them -- same result
- Delete entire Music library, then transfer over a "fresh" album after creating a Music folder, then repeat the steps above - same result
- Attempted to use the file manager to modify permissions on the folder - none of the changes saved
Interesting notes
- I can copy the files, or delete them. I have no problem accessing them with the file manager. I can access image files in the same folders
What's odd is that I can read/write from the storage just fine with other applications, such as Colornote. I'm a bit unfamiliar with the 4.2 directory structure (emulated? 0?) but it seems to be related to multiple user functionality. I am familiar with Linux in general. Can anyone offer any advice, tips/tricks, or further troubleshooting steps I can take? Any help is much appreciated.
Best regards.

Barclays bank app running on rooted phones

The Barclays mobile banking app was working on rooted phones until the last update, there is a few work around but the easiest way is to install the last update & unclick auto update in Google play. This is for anyone who has already made the mistake & updated already I can help.
Please don't mirror the download, if you wanna include this in your post just include the link to my post, thanks.
1. Uninstall your app.
2. Download the last working update below.
3. Open & update via a file manager (something like root explorer)
4. & the most important thing.... thank me on this post (Optional) :thumbup:
5. (Optional) Give the bank app a email or comment on Google play so we might get future updates for Rooted users like I did!
Barclays banking app version 1.3.3
Download link-
http://www.mediafire.com/?6fc51lu9xed4d6x
Enjoy & click thanks or like if this helps
Also there is another method available here by another xda member, the link for his page is here if you would rather use his way go here-

Not trying to be *****y but this guy doesn't deserve credits for just uploading a APK which was posted 2 pages back in the above thread and he clearly knew about that thread as has posted in it, The guy i linked above who uploaded it first deserves thanks and so do i for putting the small guide together and so do the people who i gathered the information from.

He does deserve credit & if anyone wants to use his way they can go there, I'm just helping out like we do here on Xda forums, I had the same problem after updating & used my own solution which I provided in post 1, uploaded your own apk isn't mirroring, all my info was my own also my apk. You don't need the guide to make this work like you did, you just unclick auto install & use the 1.3.3 version like I did, I reinstalled mine from titanium after I found the new update unusable on my rooted device.
sent from Tapatalk2 via my Supermodded S3 using UltimaRom v13 & running Boeffla v2.12 beta7 kernel

Your method will only work if they already had the data for the app, but yet there is no mention of this, Fresh install will require the above guide and considering there is no mention of "having to have it installed before" or "how to fix barclays mobile banking app" then it implies that this will make it work on rooted phones just by downloading your APK when this is simply not the case.
Also i know uploading my own apk isn't mirroring however technically it is as the CRC would be identical on both APK's and it seems kinda stupid saying don't mirror but yet they can easily upload the same APK and you wouldn't know.

I cant get the Barclays mobile app to work on my rooted experia z does anyone know if this method still works?

I tryed to install this old version of apk but it doesnt work on rooted phone

@ x7nofate did you try this way which I wrote under here? Or may be if you clear the cache of the app? It will work?
@ xjacko the app still works on my rooted s3
Try install from the market, then open it up, it will say not supported on rooted phones or something like that, then Uninstall it, then download my link & copy it over to your phone, now find it via a file manager app (root explorer, es manager or something like that), install it (or push it to data/app via manager app & then reboot the phone) & then enjoy barclays bank app on a rooted phone, it's the version before so tick don't auto install from the play store or it will update next time you use wifi or mobile data. Or you can also use method 2 in this post by another xda member? Hope this helps you :thumbup:

Please help, I installed the Barclay's app 2 days ago and today I uninstalled it and copied your modified apk to data/app but after copying and restarting my phone the play store auto updated the app.
Now I have barclays-1 and barclays-2 apk in data/app . I've tried deleting my cache and dalvik cache and installing then reuninstalling the official app
I then tried installing the modified apk and restarting but the app won't appear in all apps, please help :/

woohoowoohoo!
Months ago I lost use of mobile banking on my rooted SG Note2, I only had Titanium Backup set to keep one old version, and foolishly ran a backup having auto-updated a bunch of apps and then realised the new version of BMB reported device was rooted.
I tried all sorts of things to get it to work.. I came across many guides suggesting what to do.. and none worked..
* I used the triangleaway fix to make device normal.
* I disabled adb.
* I disabled installation of non-market apps
* I tried hide root programs.
* I renamed the Superuser.apk app to something else
* I renamed /system/xbin/su to something else
* I ensured /system was read only.
* I scanned system and removed any files or apps which had the name "root" or "su" in them and thus might look like root.
I even got to the point where if it weren't for having an active root shell via adb I'd have lost root!.
but nothing worked.
Then I came across this thread. I removed the app installed from Google Play, downloaded the 1.3.3 apk from the link provided, and installed it.
Ironically downloading the banking app from a third party is perhaps the most dangerous thing you could do, and yet Barclays force you in to it!
At some point I imagine they will put something in the internet servers which will deliberately break 1.3.3 and force an upgrade
But in the meanwhile I am very very happy! I will no longer have to carry my PIN Sentry box around with me.

I now have a rooted Xperia Z Ultra, and I have done everything to make this work yet it still says device is rooted. I restored the app from my Note 2 which is rooted and where the app works; so there must be something unusual that the Xperia flags up to tell Barclay's app its rooted.
If you have any ideas, please shout out so I can try them out. I did all the things I previously posted when I was trying to get the newer app to work.

What kind of fool would access their bank account from a hacked program hosted on mediafire uploaded by an unknown person who cannot even say what it is they have done to make it work?

Unable to change GPS joystick as a system app

Hello Everyone,
I have rooted my phone and am using GPS joystick Fake GPS location app from the play store. I am using a private mode within this app which helps me to create a copy of the app with a different name so that POGO does not detect it.
Everything works fine till here. I am using Lucky patcher to change the installed cloned app as a system app and it asks for a restart, after restart the cloned app goes missing.
I have no idea what is gng wrong and would need some light and help on this.

You can't use Titainium backup that does it but other then that I don't know. I don't mess with things like that.
Also just be careful. They are banning people caught cheating. To the point of banning the device itself.

Use titanium backup. Saw the auto correct was a mistake. That is really the only way but even then it has been detected by the game.

It does but it requires root. You could try just moving it with a file explorer but no promises it will work. Normally system apps only work when flashed. Also they tend to code things to look in the data partition. So moving it to system can cause issues.
You can try a few but no promises.

That's most likely due to the signature. All apps in system need to have the same signature. Without it the apk won't run at all.
I can't help any more then that. People here don't use multiple versions of the same app.
