Re: [MOD] Removed VerizonWireless From Lock and Drop Down

Hm...I just flashed CM9 alpha (4.0.3) and it doesn't seem to work. I'm getting the boot looping problem Any ideas? It's not the end of the world...but I rather liked the "Google"

The framework in cm9 is different than stock. This will only work on stock. I posted a quick how to. Try it out and get it running for cm9.

Are you sure the permissions aren't supposed to be rw-r-r-- ?

I looked at mine, and those are the permissions of mine before I flash. It might help everyone who has had problems?

That's how mine were set up. Its worth a shot as you laid it out. I would just click all the buttons. It can't hurt. Can't break this thing

Lol. True...unless I drop it and then complain that it's not built well enough, side-stepping the fault being mine.

Isn't it funny how when you put the word "The" and the word "IRS together, it spells "theirs? " Coincidence? I think not.

Re: [MOD] Removed VerizonWireless From Lock and Drop Down

Just did this on my phone. Downloaded the file to pc then moved to phone. I didn't mess with the permissions just replaced the file. Happy to say that even after multiple reboots the change still sticks.

Side note, this is the first thing i've done to my phone since rooting it. Thanks for the work you did making this mod and the details on how to install it. Made it easy for a super noob like me to do!

System/framework/framework-res.apk/Res/xml. You will want to pull the Eri.XML file. Using a xml editor (forgot what one I use) you will see the code on the left and the text break down on the right. Find the Verizon wireless line and overwrite it or space over all the text to erase it. Then drop the file back into the folder with 7zip and save it. Push the framework-res.apk file back to the phone or copy paste over the stock.

When you open the xml file in an editor, does it have a bunch of ASCII characters in it like this?

Just curious because it doesn't seem to be a text file.

Yes that's it. Just write over it or space over to delete it.

It's been some time since I made some mods but I wanted to share this. It is for stock framework. It will remove VerizonWireless from your lock screen and your drop down. Install is simple. Download the file and and place on your phone. Using root explorer find the framework file and copy it. Then go into system/framework and paste. Before you paste make sure you are in R/W mode. Once you hit paste it will just reboot. Give it a moment and it will boot back up and it will look like in the photos.

I found this site, since I just got my nexus and I really want to tried this mod.

Suggestion to the OP, have you tried dropbox? It's legit, unlike most other file sharing sites online, and you can easily manage your files with a desktop app. All with a free account.

I think I'm going to make a how to. I'm on bugless beast now so would need stock again. With the how to no matter what rom or version on ics your on you can have this mod. Its simple to do.

Think you could reup it now? Really wanted this.

 

[tntdroid]

Ok I found some time to rework this. It should now work on any rom. I'm just looking for a place to put the file up for download. New link will be up soon with a new how to.

 

[tntdroid]

Everything is updated and ready to go. You will find everything in the original post.
