Change eri from sprint - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Tried qpst changing banner.... Didn't work. How do you change the carrier name in notification bar when dragged down? And in apps, and about phone menu..... Its .net sprint anymore. Its frashed to pageplus (Verizon) but I want it to say Moparfreak.... On my motorola I put an xml file into /data and changed eri that way....

What rom are you using? Most likely you need to pull the framework-res.apk and decompile it edit the eri.xml in the res/xml folder then recompile the framework-res.apk and push it back to the phone.

You can do it from rom control if you're rocking aokp

Ok...... I checked it out but really afraid here. Says it isn't that simple with stock GB ROM....not really interested in ics roms since they seem to be slow, laggy, crap data speeds... I simply want it to say "Moparfreak" everywhere where it currently says sprint

[MOD] CRT animation

[DEPRECIATED] I'll work on getting Stock EL29 up soon.
Well, there was a thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1270232
But it appears the link is down. So, for anyone else that wants it I've edited a stock framework and you can grab it below. What does it do? It is completely stock framework other then the fact that the CRT screen off animation is enabled. Push it to system/framework.

I downloaded using the link in the OP. Used Root Explorer to rename the existing APK inside system/framework , then pasted the DLd apk in its place.
Immediately Titanium Backup hit me with an FC, then Market. I rebooted.
When my phone came up all of my sync accounts were gone, including my Market gmail account. Smart Keyboard Pro is gone as the default and Swype is back. Etc.
That'll learn me to Nandroid first.

On the Verizon model, there IS NO "phone.apk" in the System/App folder. There is a "SecPhone.apk", but making changes to it makes you lose your Verizon service, both voice and data.

How did you install it? Did you use adb and push it to /system/app? Did you use root explorer and copy it to /system/app and then edit the permissions appropriately? Or did you just open the apk to install?

VeNuM said:
Here's your fix. If you are using a stock rom but a kernel that supports boot animation (and you are rooted), using rootexplorer or a similiar app go into system/bin. Find samsungani and rename it to samsungani.bak. Now find bootanimation in system/bin and rename bootanimation to samsungani. Thats it. Now all bootanimations correctly placed in the system/media file and named bootanimation will work upon boot...

Have you tried Absolute System Root Tools, I've been using this app for a while (on gb & ics) it comes with a lot of bootanimations and makes changing them easy
As far boot sound look in /system/etc for a file called PowerOn.ogg rename it to .bak and place your desired file there just name it PowerOn and it should work
Hope this helps

You won't find it in the folder on your phone. Get a ROM zip and extract the whole 600+ MB file. You'll find it there.
Since you are on stock, look for stock ROM zip. Should be in one of the threads under development.

What? Don't understand your statement.
I know it's not much of a test but I sent myself a video mms and it worked fine.
Edit: BTW, if you're trying to send a camera pic, I'm sure there is still some size limitations in place.
And if it's not app related, certainly the Carrier will block/resize or limit mms sizes as well.
I can verify one thing that's wonky. If you click on your own contact picture in messaging, where it would take you to the respective field IN contacts, alas hangs up for a mo', then it force closes instead (contacts), and kicks you out of the message thread.

Also, I can verify pictures send for me. I'm on credo mobile, but carrier shouldn't matter for this mod.
EDIT: pictures also coming in successfully =)
Also, probably because it IS AOSP messaging, neither counter on message icon works nor message notifier on lock screen. Though I'm not sure if it's enabled with Ripple as I have it off today.
