[How-to Toro] (Carrier banner and Hide Clock)

[BixBix78]

Guys,

I have been trying to no avail to remove the verizon wireless banner from the status bar. I've tried edited the eri.xml but haven't managed to get it to work. Any help out there?

Oh yeah also tried JRummy's root tools also with no luck



Edited 5-7-12


Note this spn-conf.xml it designed for cdma toro

No more verizon banner (Thanks nachtschicht and xer09aradox)

Push spn-conf.xml to /system/etc (this file will not exist in the directory)

Reboot. Profit

This will remove verizon wireless from lockscreen and statusbar. If you want custom text add your text in every line between quotations after spn as below

spn="Enter text here"

Ok next is hide clock



Decompile MiuiSystemUI.apk
Navigate to MiuSystemUI\res\values\strings.xml
Find lines

<string name="status_bar_time_format_12">h:mma</string>
<string name="status_bar_time_format_24">HH:mm</string>

Edit to below

<string name="status_bar_time_format_12"></string>
<string name="status_bar_time_format_24"></string>

Save, recompile, sign with apk manager or

pull resources.arsc from recompiled apk and add back into original apk.

I haven't been able to figure it out either. It's got something to do with being a placeholder for no icons I do know.

OP updated no more Verizon Banner

and hide status bar clock

Isnt working for me. But im also running the center clock mod. Would that effect this?

[BixBix78]

No. I started with centered clock mod systemui.

If you are talking about hiding vzw banner idk. I pushed the file and rebooted and I'm good to go.

If you are talking about hiding clock

Did you sign recompiled apk with apk manager or pull new resources from recompiled apk and add it back into original apk?

Also did you push via explorer or add to an update zip? For reference I signed the recompiled apk with apk manager and added to an update zip and flashed.

I'm mobile now but I think it's system ui res/layout/navigationbar.xml and is a hex code towards the top

The spn-conf.xml fix for removing Verizon Wireless from the status bar is not working with the most recent release. Anyone know why or if there is another fix we could use?

Carrier name 1.2 apk from xda is working on this week's release

Do you know how to change the carrier label manually. Where is the carrier name locate it? I'm using panadroid and I have tried to access the Eri.xml but I don't see the freaking "Verizon wireless" text. I see some t cdma 64 thing instead.
Any help?
thanks in advance
