I'm running the new "HTC_WWE_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship" and my operator comes up as "Get More..." Which is pretty lame. Anyone figured out a way to change this? My digging through the registry turned up nil.
Help?
Chances are, no. It's a feature of the SIM card to be able to hold custom names that the operator wants to display. It's called EONS (Enhanced Operator Name Service, I believe). There's no way that I know of to tell WM to ignore it.
Well shoot, now i'm stumped. On the t-mob ship roms it came up fine. The HTC rom says Get More..., strange. I also have a t-mob wing (herald) and the touch-it rom said the same thing (Get More...).
This seems to be something common with roms designed for markets other than north america. Thanx for the input.

edit: here you go.

good luck. Worked for me. Might have to play around with it to get it to work. You don't have to reboot the whole phone to show the new network name. just go into the communications manager and hit 1 (or turn off phone) then re-enable it)
It works but switches back whenever u soft reset. I don't see the big deal to be honest.

not a big deal because it is not happening with you.
i was wondering if we can somehow edit the operator's name into something else. like.. "blah is blah"
Click the link in the 4th post. It explains how to change the operators name.

Hi,
About two months ago during one of the numerous rom flashings on my SPVM3100 , I came across a strange issue. I called Orange many times and they changed my SIM card twice but finally said they don't understand this and gave it up. My SPVM3100 is over two years old - so they're not gonna replace the device.
Here's the issue:
whenever someone leaves me a voice mail, instead of receiving the normal "voice mail" notification and it's icon in Today screen, I receive a text message! These texts are unreadable (consisting of only 2 signs, like a triangle sign and an @ sign. Or an @ sign with an underline sign _).
Whenever I receive such texts , I know that I have a voice mail ! I dial the voice mail service, listen to the voice message and delete it. But each time my voice mail box becomes empty another annoying text is sent to me - perhaps cofirming that the mail box is now empty (I wish I could read this new sign language )
The phone shows that the texts are coming from the SIM Card !! (so we thought that perhaps the SIM has problems and that's why Orange changed my SIM Card twice).
This is really annoying.
The Orange tech people exhausted their knowledge for the past 2 months but couldn't solve this problem , gave it up altogether , and are now asking me to contact HTC ! (which I'm sure would be useless).
That's why I'm asking this from xda developers and gurus to see if they have any explanation for this bizarre behavior of my device.
Thanks for any insight and sorry to make a thread for this annoying issue.
have you tried flashing with a different rom? i know similar things would happen on motorola phones, and required hex editing of certain files to turn that feature off.

Fallen,
A six-month-old critically annoying problem was solved in 30 seconds
I am sure we all know xda developers and gurus are genius.
As I said in the post, almost all technical guys & gals in Orange did literally exhaust all their knowledge & experience in the past six months to solve this issue but it was obvious that they didn't absolutely have any clue what the cause of the problem was; whereas Olipro had found the cause and the remedy very quickly.
This is really serious because Orange is a huge multi-billion corporation and they claim to have their own top developers/programmers/technicians and yet they shamelessly suck !
Now on to my second question :
On almost all original (HTC and AT&T) ROMs , the HTC Home Plugin shows the network as "Orange". But on some of the cooked ROMs the network is shown as "UMTS Orange". I know the meaning of UMTS and I understand that whether the network is shown as "Orange" or "UMTS Orange" the phone appears to function the same.
I just want to know what happens in some cooked ROMs that the phone recognizes the network of the SIM card as "UMTS Orange" and not the usual "Orange" ? I talked to some Orange technicians, their replies are really rediculous - one of them kept saying: "you must change your mobile settings" ! But she didn't have a clue what she was talking about as she didn't know where those damn "mobile settings" were and how they could be changed! I can swear she had never held an SPVM3100 or a Kaiser in her hand.
I've searched the forum but haven't been able to find a clear answer yet. I am asking this question just to improve my personal knowlege on this issue.
Thank you for your guidance and insight.
hey,
I get the same problem too when installing new Cooked ROMs.
In order to get rid of the 'UMTS' in front of the Operator name you have to edit a registry entry.
Use a registry editor and navigate to: HKLM---> Software---->OEM---->Phone Setting
In there find an entry labelled 'Enable3GLongName' And change it from 1 to 0.
Restart you're device and it should just say 'Orange'
Hope that works
Nesh

Thanks bro. Yesterday, before reading your reply I reflashed my device and
this nwe Binky11's V3.8 ROM got it right. So for now, I don't need to do the registery; however, I made a note of your advice for future reference.
I should keep reading to see what happens in most cooked WM6.1 ROMs that they get the network name as such and why the original ROMs get it right.
Thank you very much for your reply.
Hi!
So i looked on the forums and post of the zenfone 2 , and i cant find anyone asking this... Or i am a fool because i don know how to do it, or it cant be removed on stock rom (updated to the last one)
This voicemail is from years ago, so i dont remember the password :silly: sry, but i dont want to call "customer care" because they are slow and time consuming
Cheers!
Funnily enough I had a similar problem, no way could I get rid of the notification icon.
I fixed it by rebooting the phone, icon gone ?
Who is this voicemail with?

Ok, I'm with Rogers (Canada) and normally it won't go away until I check all my messages. I saw that you said you forgot the password for it. If you don't want to talk to them over the phone use their livechat option. I normally do that if I'm on the computer doing other stuff as well, just a suggestion.
Hello everyone,
Not sure (again) if this is the right subforum to post about it, feel free to move the thread if so.
Today I called my service provider (Vodafone Greece) to enable VoLTE and WiFi-Calling. Supposedly they did but I don't see the VoLTE or WiFi Calling Icons on my status bar.
Anyone has any idea why this happens? I have restarted my device as prompted to.
Also, I had some packages disabled but I enabled them again. (IMS ones since I read those are responsible for those services.) Not sure though, If any others are needed to be enabled that I may have disabled by accident.
Thank you for your time!!
For some reason VoLTE icon won't show up but I get HD calls.
No idea...

WiFi is sorta working, the icon appears from time to time.
As for VoLTE, nope... I might actually go over a store and ask them what's up.

I went over my carrier's store and they said, I got the service activated and working but the icon won't show up... Go figure...
Same here, just the icon is not showing up. They say I use VoLTE as it is shown in their logs.
It must be as usual, firmware issue.
If its an unlocked phone, those icons almost never show up, the features do work, but no icons.
I have an unlocked S20 Ultra that has been on both Verizon and T-Mobile, and it has never had those icons show up, ever. Prior to this one I had an S10+, unlocked, and those icons also never showed up...

I wonder if there is any way to modify some manifest or so, via ADB, to get those icons?

Make sure the your device imei is added on to the Carrier DB
Just noticed on my lock screen
"Public Storm Warning Signal #1 PAGASA
Can't get rid of it, turned emergency alerts off and I'm not anywhere near the Philippines
Same here.
Yep, even in the Europe.
Yeah just had it in UK.
Gone again, just the date and weather showing
I got this as well in the US. I clicked on it, looked around at the map and read some of the text then dismissed it without issue. The screen wouldn't time out afterward though until I turned it off manually. Now it's back to normal. ¯\(°_o)/¯
It's gone now.
I just had the same, never seen this before and had to goggle it.
Philippine weather warning system.
weathermen here in the UK cant even get our weather correct so I'm not sure how the Philippines can!

The irony would be if the Philippines didn't get the notification...
As long as no one is getting the false incoming nuclear warheads alert as Hawaii did a few years ago.

My emergency alerts had all been re-enabled after this months patch for some reason so i just disabled them again.
Seeing this weird alert today in usa I'll write it off as Google spy systems
fyi, https://www.androidauthority.com/pixel-alert-philippines-3076290/
I had it this morning too...
