This is really simple using a registry editor:
HKLM/System/State/Phone --> Change "Current Operator Name" to whatever you want :wink:

BTW, there are TONS of various options in this registry section in case anyone wants to play around with them a bit and report back?? :D
Sweet I like this and have all ready changed mine. The Treo has Sprint stamped on the front why dose it need to say sprint in the screen.Thanks for the tip :thumbright:

This gets reset back to Sprint every time you turn the phone off, then back on. :( Hence the name "State"- apparently this section gets overwritten by the operating system whenever state changes on various items...

Re: Disable Sprint Carrier Logo/Contact Lookup
 
Hi guys. This is exactly what I was looking for (a way to get rid of the Sprint and BT text and icon. I tried using Mobile Reg Editor to modify the entry you refer to but I keep getting "Access Denied" when I try and update the registry. Did you guys run into this?

Actually, I downloaded a reg editor that runs on the Treo 700wx and modified the entry and I still see the word "Sprint" and the Bluetooth logo. Anthing else I need to do to make this work?
