Root Stock rom carrier name

There is one floating around here on the triumph boards somewhere, I will try to find it in a little bit.

There is an instruction thread here:
http://androidforums.com/triumph-all-things-root/416573-tip-how-change-carrier-name.html
There are also about 3-4 others asking about it.

You don't have to go elsewhere to get the info.

When looking for the stock one I realized I used up my attachment space and removed it. I will post it up a bit later tonight when I get to my home computer. I will also edit my posts that said it had the download previously to include the link for it.
 
I forgot to tell you agent thanks for the carrier text for att it turned out your zipped up the folder not the "metainfo and system" so I uploaded it to mediafire fixed.Thanks to your tutorial I also figured out how to make my own carrier text :D. Thanks!
AT&T Carrier Text for CM7 Beta 8 I tested it myself it works.

Ah. I change my carrier name to something I want (not at&t or sprint) but I just push it using adb. Much easier than messing with a flashable zip.

I use custom too, but what are adb codes, I thought it was only installable via CWM.
 
First off here is the link:
carrierstock.zip
I am 90% sure that is the one that says sprint, if it says something else, let me know and I will fix it.

It basically lets you push/pull files from your phone while it is still on. There are other things you can do with it as well. Here is the Android Developers page for it.

I know what adb is.....I have had to use it root my other phones/tablets, I just wanted to know the exact codes, not look through an entire post.....:(. I think I found out how though :/ "adb push framework-res.apk /system/app".

That is close but it would be in system/framework. Cant remember the exact wording as I use a scripting program for it (apk multi tool).

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk

then use something like apk-tool to decompile it (can also pull from apk-tool)

edit the carrier line in /resources/xml/eri.xml (for CM7/MIUI - it is in another file for stock, don't remember off the top of my head)

recompile the apk (if using apk tool, copy unmodified files and when asked delete the modified xml file and resources.arsc from the keep folder)

push with apk-tool

or use adb push unsignedframework-res.apk (or whatever you have it named) /system/framework/framework-res.apk
 
I already know how to make my own carrier text with apk multi tool, as I already have and am using it. I just want standard adb codes to push it, please read before posting (As I clearly say that I used agent's tutorial on how to do it awhile ago)..... Also, thanks agent for codes.

There are options to do it with apk multi tool. If you already have them both (like you stated) there are options for adb pull/push (cant remember the options number but I use that since I am already using it to decompile/recompile.
