Get your carrier logo back on 3.1 JB

For anyone sick of having their AT&T carrier logo missing, it's pretty easy to make it show up again. I don't know what would happen if you roam on another network using this method. This method was adapted from a method discovered by PurpleMan and blogged by Hara Taiki

This method uses iFile, a shareware application in Cydia. If you use it and enjoy it, please register it. It's really cool.

1) Open iFile.
2) Browse to /private/var/mobile/Library/Carrier Bundles/ATT_US.bundle
3) Open the file carrier.plst.
4) Click the Edit button.
5) Find the portion of the file that reads:
Code:


AllowPrefixMatching

CarrierName
at&t
DefaultImage
Default_CARRIER_ATT.png
FullScreenOpaqueImage
FSO_CARRIER_ATT.png
6) Immediately below this text, paste the following:
Code:

AllowPrefixMatching

CarrierName

DefaultImage
Default_CARRIER_ATT.png
FullScreenOpaqueImage
FSO_CARRIER_ATT.png
7) Save file, close iFile, and reboot.

You should now have your carrier back!

Notes:
1) The text you pasted in step 6 is the same you located in step 5, but with an empty string for CarrierName. I simply copy-pasted the text and deleted "at&t")
2) This should works fine with AT&T Carrier Logo from Cydia.
3) This method should work fine for other carriers. Just modify to reflect your carrier's bundle and logo files.
