I was really getting tired of my carrier name showing up twice on the lockscreen and taking up extra real estate on my notification drop-down so I figured out how to disable the SPN from showing and how to customize the PLMN to say whatever I want.
KEY FILES TO EDIT
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/optable.db
/system/etc/apns-conf.xml
/system/etc/spn-conf.xml
In the apns-conf.xml make sure your provider is listed with a numeric value.
Here's an example: numeric="311370" mcc="311" mnc="370"
* As you can see the numeric is the MCC plus the MNC.
In the spn-conf.xml make sure your provider is listed with an spnOverride.
Here's an example: <spnOverride numeric="311370" spn_display_rule="SPN_RULE_SHOW_PLMN" spn_override_only_on="310,311"/>
The optable.db needs to be edited with SQLite Database Browser to add your numeric and the text to display.

Flash these files AFTER you have flashed a ROM and booted up at least once! I tested all four files on TUD 3.0.0 Beta, CM7 A3, and various CM7 Crackflasher builds.
*Screenshots are from CM7 Crackflasher build #54 with the Jungle Waterfall livewallpaper
Very cool mod. I will try this out when I have the time!
thank you
Love this, it worked great on Bionix with 1.3 kernel. For some reason running the same rom with the new 1.4b kernel it no longer works and yes I tried reflashing and wiping a few times. Any ideas?
Hey could you make me one and either PM me or post it up?
I'm on CM7 on a Nexus S, and I don't see a '/system/etc/spn-conf.xml' file. It doesn't seem to exist on mine. I'm on the latest nightly (#8) and have updated everything. Am I missing something?
How exactly did you get these files? I'm having all sorts of trouble with this. First off, the optable.db file is zero K, even when I extract it through ASTRO or Root Explorer with R/W permissions. Secondly, as I mentioned in the last post, the 3rd file is missing from the stated directory.
I'm really confused, as it seems that none of these instructions add up for a Nexus S. I'd like my T-Mobile message to instead display "Nexus S: Pure Android, Pure Google"
Did not work on Modaco R9, CM7 or The Cracker builds...

spns-conf.xml does not exist on the Nexus S originally, but if you place it in /system/etc/ the OS knows to use it.

You might be on to something, it worked for about 3 seconds then went right back to T-Mobile.
Still doesn't work. Mounted /system and /data. Does it only work for certain carriers? I'm using a&t
Is there a way to apply this to ALL carriers, rather than selecting one manually.
thanks
Hello, I would like to move my ringtones to the internal memory because I've noticed that since I started using Swap, It delays the ringtone from starting. This is what I observed, Randomly the ringtone starts after 2 or 3 vibrates, other times its not at all and uses the stock beeping ringtone (I guess since the SD is being used, it cant go in it and get the ringtone) So bottom line, My ringtones take a few seconds to ring after a few vibrates. I already know that I have to convert them to .ogg, but does anyone know another way to make the system pull up the ringtone faster?
I would like to know that myself. Im sick of having my default ringtone going when i selected a custom one for one of my contacts. whats the best settings for the ogg files too as this may be helpful to us both

Alright... So you wanna do this, here is what you will need:
*ADB Installed and working
*Root Manager of some sort
*Format Factory -This is freeware, so it's not warez.
1st, Download and install Format Factory. This is the program I use for everything. If you have one of your own preference, it can be substituded.
**Do a custom install, as this will try to install adbars otherwise. (You have been warned.)
2nd, Open Format Factory and click "All to OGG".
3rd, Select your ringtones and click "ok". On the next screen, click "Start"
4th, Open your Root Explorer program, I use Android Commander
5th, With your Root Explorer program, navigate to your newly created OGG files (normally found in Documents/FFOutput on your PC) in the Root Explorer.
6th, Move these files to /system/media/*** on your phone. And you are done.
Please note: ""***" represents the respective folders. i.e. "ringtones", "notifications", etc.
Hope this helped you. Click "thanks" if it did. - Any questions, ask.
EDIT: DO NOT change the OGG settings in Format Factory. They work fine at default. Once you get used to, and comfortable with doing this, then play with the settings to get your desired file size and quality.
I tried doing what you said, but although I successfully managed to push the files, they still don't appear in the ringtone/notifications menu

did you make sure the phone looked for new media, or restart ya phone? i had to do it with mine
I was going to say that I had checked the phone after restart and they still weren't showing up - but I double checked again and now they are. Thanks! I'm not sure how to check for new media, though - is there a procedure for this?
Been trying this using ES File Explorer but keeping getting a message that paste failed. Any ideas where i'm going wrong.
I have S-Off and root
you can try this, it a little easier if you have the tools but yoo have to reflash the rom so be sure to backup your apps, contacts blah blah blah...
1. unzip the 'rom.zip' file, open the folder and look for the system/media/audio folder
2. now you can add & remove ringtones, notifications, alarm sounds that you want or dont want...
3. zip the rom file back up
4. sign it with an auto sign program... (very simple to use)
5. flash rom and enjoy your customizations
6. restore your backed up contacts and apps...
(you can also remove some unwanted stock apps to save space, be sure not too remove system required apps though lol)
Cheers Idrifta, ended up getting it to work using Root Explorer.
o nice!!! haha good to know... better than my method lol
The following worked for me.. Check this
I followed a link and it worked for me on jfltetmo running on cm11-m9 and having twrp v2.8.4.0. I explained the steps in my answer here: How to install a ringtone into internal memory?. All the credit for the steps go to villo-2.
like some i'm fond of the Sense UI, but not the slide-down lockscreen.
I prefer the CM lockscreen also known as the vanilla stock lockscreen, which consists of you sliding left or right to mute or unlock your phone.
Well after i managed to do some searching and reading up, i found that the Sense ROM contains the vanilla stock lockscreen, but overrides it with an apk of their own lockscreen.
follow these easy instructions to switch back and forth if you like...
**MUST BE ROOTED!!**
1. FIRST do a nandroid backup of your phone. (always a safe practice when changing anything on your phone)
2. go into Partitions -> and unmount your /System/
3. connect your phone to your PC via USB
4. go into your android SDK windows directory
(default) C:\android-sdk-windows\tools\
5. type "adb devices" (minus quotation marks) and make sure your phone is recognized and listed in the output
6. type "adb shell"
7. type "mv /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app/HtcLockScreen.bak"
8. type "exit"
9. type "adb reboot", and unplug your phone from the USB
and enjoy.
simply...you just renamed HTC Sense's lockscreen app. since the Sense UI can't find it, it goes back to the default vanilla stock lockscreen. if you want it, just simply nandroid restore or follow the instructions again and rename HtcLockScreen.bak to HtcLockScreen.apk
***
only BUG i've found in using this method is if you use the HTC Sense Alarm clock you won't be able to disable the alarm from the lockscreen. you'll have to unlock your phone first and choose it from the alarm popup.
****
found a stock alarm clock apk that will work with the vanilla lockscreen.
1.Put the file in the tools folder of your Android SDK
2.Reboot to Recovery
3.Mount System
4.Open CMD prompt
5.cd to tools folder (c:\android-sdk-windows\tools)
6. adb push DeskClock.apk /system/app
8.Reboot
Good info, thanks.
Finally, I love the stock lockscreen rather than Sense's
Very nice. Thanks.

Trying to locate the source of the problem, but since doing this hitting menu will unlock the phone. I know this is an option for CM Roms, however i'm running the Liberated Froyo Rom. I know they put in the trackball wakeup option, but i can't find any of the settings that would govern that and menu unlock. it didn't do this with the sense unlock screen.
other question, any way to make the answer call when locked screen be the stock one and not the sense one?

There is an HTCDialer.apk in the phone's /system/app/ folder. I'm guessing renaming it may replace it. Not sure but worth a try. Just repeat the steps above just the same. I prefer the Sense dialer over stock tho.
It's not so much the dialer (or maybe it is) i have issues with . Right now when i get a call with the phone locked i get the sense answering screen (curved bar to slide up or down.) I'll do some playing tonight to see if that really is part of the dialer or not. I'm not overly familiar with all the software components of android, so it's a learning process for me.
Same here. Just trial and error and learning
you are amazing. i have been trying to sort out a solution to that hideous sense lock screen FOREVER! i love CM, but Liberated seems to run much faster on my phone, so i'm sticking with it.
now that you have fixed my lock screen complaint, i only have one other problem to sort out...skipping music tracks with volume button. i sure miss that feature from CM.
good info.. Although, mine wont work.. It says it cant rename, no such file or directory found. I have checked over and over and it really is in there. My spelling and slashes are perfect. Any ideas?
you need read/write permissions. boot into recovery and select Partitions and Mount System.
then connect in ADB and enter the command

Ditto with 92, I tried several different ways of getting this to work and got nothing. I for the life of me can not figure this out. Is there a way to post a screenshot of this? or get more info? I'm rolling on a FR008 ROM.
Thanks
I made a copy of froo8 zip in my downloads directory using Astro. Then opened the copy with Astro, deleted the htclockscreen apk. Booted to recovery, nandroid backup, install from zip, and installed the backedup froo8 zip.

Hey, I used this method to change the lock screen however when my phone is on silent the right volume slider is turned 90 degrees. Any idea why or how to fix. Sorry no pic because I'm on my phone.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
My right volume slider doesn't change positions, Just colors. 90 degrees what direction? Mine points to left.
Sent from my Liberated Aria
Well i flashed the liberated 2.2.2 rom hfr003 and the issue seems to have gone away. Not sure what it was but the slider would rotate to look like you were suppose to slide it up rather that to the left.
Good info, thanks.
I have the FR008 rom flashed on my HTC Aria. Even with using the DeskClock.apk, I cannot turn off the alarm at all! (on the lock screen or after unlocking the phone)
Here is a collection of alarms, notifications, and ringtones collected from stock and various roms. This is a CWM flashable zip. If you enjoy this, remember to thank the devs here. I just made a collection from their work. If anyone has other audio from other devices they want added just let me know and I'll recompile.
List:
Captivate Stock
Atrix Stock
Armani Stock
Andromeda
Cognition
Continuum
Dragon
Phoenix
Serendipity
Twingerbread
Talking Notifications
and others I may have forgotten.
Now converted to Edify! These are flashable from the newer CWM.

I found an online MIDI converter, converted them to wav, and then over to ogg. I've attached a CWM flashable zip to this post with the 5100 ringers. I can't stress enough about doing a backup before you apply this as I haven't tested it yet.

Yep, that is also possible for those who don't want to let it automatically place the files for them or who want to pick and choose the tones they want.
I updated the original post with my corrected Audio file (removed duplicates) and included a link to download the stock Captivate tones as well.
Enjoy!
Great package! I flashed without any issues, but I am seeing duplicates of some of the files. If I look in the directory where they are with Astro, I am only seeing single copies of some of the files.
Any ideas? How can I clean this up?
Thanks for posting these BTW!!

Try another reboot. If that doesn't work then go into settings --> applications --> manage applications --> all --> media container. Force a stop and clear data. Reboot. That should force another fresh media scan with no cached data.
What duplicates were you seeing? That way I can along double check my source files.

A couple of questions... if we don't want all of them, can we just delete the unwanted ones out of the zip before flashing?
Also, if we should want to just direct load them onto the phone (assume that is possible?), where should they be put?
Related to direct loading, there seems to be beaucoup file manager apps; anybody tried a bunch and find a clear winner?

1. If you delete the ones you don't want then it won't be flashable through CWM
2. You can direct load them to /system/media/audio/ and then notifications or ringtones or alarms

I tried what you suggested and I'm still seeing the dupes. As a data point, I was using whatever came stock with Cog 4.0 (clean flash from stock) and Cog 4.2.2 (upgrade over top of 4.0). Not sure if there were dupes before, but confident there were not.
Here is a list of the dupes:
AT&T Tone
ATT Tone (this one is lower volume .... going to try and delete via Astro)
Bird Loop
Bollywood
Calypso Steel
Classic Bell
Digital Phone
The floor
Gutta tone
Luminescence
Noisy one (Noisey one .... spelling difference, but same tone)
Popple Tone
Pure Tone
Samsung Tune
Single Tone
Winter
As I said before, I only see one file in the list when I look in the directory with Astro.
Let me know if there is anything else you need!!
Thanks for looking at this as well!

Nope. That's the most current one. I'll do a little more research and see if I can find out why you're getting duplicates.
Did you run the CWM version or did you extract them to a folder on your sd card?
Also try deleting the data/cache from the media storage and then another reboot.

I notice my Ringtones created by Ringdroid do show up and they are in a folder like that.
You can exclude media by directory by adding a file to that directory called .nomedia
First off this work is based on Digiblur's PRL Write Enabler from the Sprint Galaxy S3 forum. I simply modified it & packaged it for our Sprint Galaxy S4 devices.
Here is the original S3 post that this was found in... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159054
Also, post #8 below provides additional info.
I tested it by flashing with TWRP and it worked on my stock, rooted S4 with the MDC and MDL releases.
If you're on a stock rooted Rom and not using TWRP, you can just copy the HiddenMenu.apk from inside the zip file downloaded into /system/app/ and overwrite the one that's there. (You'll need a root enabled file browser to do this of course).
Thanks to Unknownforce here is a version for MJA...

This certainly will save me from having to use CDMA WS to switch like I just did yesterday. 55014 was not working well for me in my market so I switched back to 25014.

You mean the install of the zip?
If so, you can pull the APK out of the zip and replace HiddenMenu.apk in the system folder (make a backup first). You may want to also set the permissions to rw-r-r after replacing the system app. Reboot, then you should be good to go.
@ChadH42,
I know it seems like I'm harping on you but I'm really not..
You need to update the OP on - 1. What is this? 2. What does this do? 3. Why is this in the Development Section.. ?
A good OP leads to less questions.. Development Sections aren't for information. That would be considered a Discussion Thread that belongs in General.
Let's keep the Dev section clean from the start.
My suggestion - Edit the OP on the What's/Why's?/How To's and you won't get posts like mine.
To the OP, updated your title as [WIP], and I suggest you provided additional information so that folks aren't bricking their new devices.
I will check in, if you need anything, let me know.
What this MOD does (in case the OP takes a little while to chime in)
What this MOD does is modifies our ##DATA# (select View) menu to allow for the PRL Write option to appear and function. With this menu option, the user can change their PRL on the fly from the device itself by placing a copy of the desired PRL in the root directory of Internal Storage and name it "test.prl" (no quotes), dial ##DATA# (choose View), tap Write PRL, tap the sub-menu option Write PRL ---wait--- and then the device reboots with the test.prl PRL applied upon reboot. Not every PRL works and sometimes it takes a couple of tries.
A tip for multiple PRL options is to, of course, keep a folder of the PRLs you like and keep them labeled in there. Copy the desired PRL to proper place as needed and just remember to rename the copy to "test.prl". Switch back and forth as you please. I hope this helps clear some confusion and helps some find purpose with the MOD like I have.
For a clear set of instructions that I did not want to just copy verbatim, check the link below. Also, if you are having issues with the zip not installing in CWM, just extract the APK from the ZIP (inside the system/app folder), use Root Explorer or your favorite root-access file explorer to place the APK in the APP folder, apply the proper permissions and reboot.
Ref from the GS3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1748516

I just tried this mod with the Force ROM and it did the same thing (blank options). The only thing I can think of is that it works with the odex version of the stock ROM so maybe its a problem with deodex ROMs of which Force is one.
O okay. Its currently not a necessary thing for me at the moment, just nice for when I travel to Alabama. Hopefully later on someone gets it working on deodex.

I am actually running it on the Rooted Stock DeOdexed ROM. So I don't think it is an Odex/DeOdex issue...might be a Force ROM issue.
Also, moot point for Force ROM (1.0+) anyway because the PRL Write mod is already included with that.
I'm also having this problem and I'm pretty sure it was working this morning. I haven't flashed anything since then.
edit-- I tried:
1. wiping both cache's
2. killing background process "OIThiddenmenu"
neither fixed it.
I reinstalled the stock odex ROM and flashed this again and it worked.
Just an FYI, OP, I get Error Status 6 when trying to flash this via recovery, which indicates one of two things. Either the format of the file is incorrect or there is a syntax error. The syntax looks fine, but opening in basic Notepad shouldn't "look pretty" like it currently does. So it's likely it was edited with a non-Unix-compatible text editor like Notepad or MS-Word...
To make modifications to an updater-script (or just about any Android/Linux files like this) you need something like Notepad++ or gVim.
Anyways, I did a quick test with this, and it does in fact not work on my ROM as it is, but I see why it's failing, but I don't know what exactly it's trying to reference yet. (It fails with an id number instead of a name, so I'll have to de-compile some things to find it.)
I'm not sure it's a ROM issue or a MOD issue yet. (meaning it might have to be updated for each custom ROM, depending on how they are configured) But I'll track it down and update when I can.

Thanks for all your help here..
I had the error status 6 problem in the beginning and thought I fixed it. You are correct that I used MS WordPad to edit the files.

I think TWRP can read the non Unix type characters, which is why it works on a different recovery.
I'm hoping it's a mod issue and I can just modify the mod to work universally regardless of the rom. But we'll see.
