Thanks. Nice Work

riddick1224 01-08-2008 11:59 PM
I installed your program and it worked well. but then I wanted to uninstall it. I did and every now and then it will give me an error message. Plus on top of that it won't let me install any other programs on my phone. They all say "Unsuccessfull". What should I do?

guitardoc64 01-09-2008 12:45 AM
For me it cuased more problems than it was worth, but I'm running it on a WM6 Apache, and it's not made for that. I'm keeping it for the Touch, though... nice app!

i quoted you because you decribed things that are issues with app app like this. your quote was also nice to use when decribing what and how mine worked. i hope mine will work good for others as well. hopefully better.

yes, i take pride in my work and will try everything i can to make it the best i can. updates are part of the game.

to be all honest with everyone.... it has been a while since i, or most mort people, have wrtoe anything. i miss it and was wanting something to do. i remember when you (perasite) first came to the treocentral mort forum. we were just ending an almost year long mort writing frenzy. man that was fun. hopefully with the release of the 800w (treo) the gang will come back. most of the guys said they just got board. they need a new device to spice it up agian.

your good with me parasite. i just hope people dont think i was tring to copy the other guys app when writing this. i was going to remove it, but thought... some may not have known about the other guys app, like myself. and, maybe this version will work better for those who had problems with the other one.

anyhow...

cody
Sorry guys don't mean to but in but a guy like me didn't know about the other guys app and I ran across this one and I just want to say thanx Cody cuz I liked it. You have made my phone look CRAZY to the uninformed ppc user cuz I'm currently running many of the apps you have put on here.

this was one thing i overlooked in the original build. in the first post i gave some more details to what happened.

bottom line... install the new version "personalizer 1.1" and then uninstall. all should be good then.

what happened with the first one was the notification que was not being removed when you went to uninstall it. i fixed that in this newer version.

thanks, cody

glad most of you guys like it.

timdawgdentist 01-09-2008 10:23 AM
Do you mean for us to install then uninstall or uninstall if we want to?
Sorry little clarification. It is yet another way to personalize. I like it.

Thanks CODY

Mine says "Cricket." However, I got tired of updating that registry key all the time and ended up hard coding it with QPST.

This program is great for people who are weary of editing their phone's PST settings. I'm sure a lot of Cricket users will get some good use out of this.

the first version had one thing missing that wuoldn't let it COMPLETELY uninstall. i dont know why anyone would want to uninstall it (lol), but if you did.... you then would need to install the new version over the old version before you could completely uninstall the app. the new version installs over the old version and still works exactly the same. the only difference is the uninstall part.

redifrogger 01-09-2008 05:56 PM
he's not the only one - and I don't have any custom rom on my treo 700wx.

mtiberio 01-09-2008 06:34 PM
Could someone tell me how to clean this software off my Treo 750 without spending $20 for memmaid? I installed Personalizer_1.1, decided I didn't want it, un-installed it, and now I get the notification message everytime my Treo wakes up. Please help.

JimsPoBox 01-09-2008 11:54 PM
I noticed you have both the original and v. 1.1 listed. Do both have to be installed or can just 1.1 be installed on a clean machine?

missourihoney 01-10-2008 03:24 AM
i have a sprint ppc 6700 running on alltel, so why does it say sprint pcs? why wont it change to alltel if its running off towers, I have changed the rom, whipped the extended rom clean, something is still blocking my *228 update through alltel, ive manually put everything,, its just a pain not knowing WHY, if I knew why i could change what is causing it.. anyone have any ideals? I dont just want to mask the carrier name I want it to stop putting sprint in a phone that is clearly pulling off a Alltel tower..

I have edited my registry and deleted every reference to personalizer and mortscript (this was even after an uninstall) and I still get the notification error. I am running WM6, I have the ExtendedRom mounted, and that is where I installed Personalized_1.1...

Help

try this one more time. install version 1.1 let it do it's thing. and then uninstall it. softreset. wait 60 seconds between steps.

also i see that you are putting this in your extended rom. why i dont know, but inorder to remove this you need to install the 1.1 version in the exact same plact that you install the first version.

codyppc 01-10-2008 09:18 AM
memmaid does have a free trial version that you could use to do it as well. wouldn't cost you $20.

Initially, I never installed your first version. Later, I tried installing your first version in main storage, then I installed v1.1 over that and removed them, and they removed fine with no lingering notifications. The notifications from the ExtendedRom version still linger. The reason to install apps into the Extended Rom is that it represents about 8 megabytes of storage. I install S/W there, and leave main storage for the more volatile stuff (ie cache, etc).

lol. not even considering the extended rom i did not write in the script the right code to remove from the extended rom. not many people use this. anyhow i posted a speical version just for you in the treocentral 750 forum....

http://discussion.treocentral.com/sh...=1#post1396316

post back and let me know it worked.

thanks, cody

timdawgdentist 01-10-2008 10:20 AM
I could be crazy.... But after running this program all day. And I know this is gonna sound weird but my add remove programs screen was completely blank. Tried to soft reset but no change. I hard reset then reinstalled all the programs I use. Except this new one now everything seems cool. Then again maybe its just an acid flashback.

I have a touch running
phm reg edit
m&m waitcursor
btcrawler
cube config
polen cube icon
polen vista cube, dialer, and keyboard
codyppc 40key keyboard hack
hhc customizer
google maps
vtap


if you could shed any light it would help

blasphemous_prime 01-10-2008 10:27 AM
Thanks very much for your outstanding efforts Cody. I'll give ya a few screenshots later on after work.

well, to be honest with ya... this program uses mortscript. it is very limited to what we can do with mortscript. removing the stuff you got is really impossible.

sorry, cody

codyppc 01-10-2008 12:53 PM
UPDATE... STRONGER, FASTER, and JUST BETTER THAN THE OTHERS.

NEW VERSION...

i moved the app to this site so that others didn't have to register. the attachment is now the actual cab file so you can download from your phone and install. no more zip file.

post here... or there. i will try to support the app everywhere it is posted.

thanks, cody

direct download is here.

codyppc 01-10-2008 03:00 PM
download and install the 2.0 version and EVERYTHING will be back to normal.

direct download is here.

codyppc 01-10-2008 03:06 PM
soft reset and try it agian. it sometimes takes a few minutes to uninstall and then reinstall in the same version.

you cant give up. i have spent 5 hours today writing and testing this. this version works. you being the first poster after the update doesn't look good. your not helping :)

codyppc 01-10-2008 03:17 PM
2.0 is the cab you need to be using. it is the best yet and will fix anything the others might have done.

what exactly is your phone doing?

iwillfearnoevil 01-10-2008 03:28 PM
it finally uninstalled after i gave up several times with many softboots. it took like 6 minutes to uninstall. and now 2.0 took about that long too .... not sure exact time but longer than 5 minutes which is when it powered down. when i turned back on the prompt asking for the new label appeared. thank you for helping. i'll delete my other posts since this summarizes it.

codyppc 01-10-2008 03:34 PM
hmmm, that's weird. i have done at least 20 reinstalls today just testing. never had it take that long.

at least your up and running agian

Pitchblack98 01-10-2008 11:25 PM
This new version is working great for me now. It even working good for my friend on his unlocked Tilt on T Mobile. Great work... Mine now says... "Dylan was here!" haha

clockcycle 01-11-2008 03:14 AM
I was looking for a way to do this and ran into this post about this nice program. But totally by mistake while reading some information from one phone to set up another with QPST, I realized you can use it to permanently edit the banner.

redifrogger 01-11-2008 09:31 AM
To any interested in knowing, I've installed version 2.0 and it works unfailingly now. Before my personalized text come and go, but copyppc got it working great now. Thanks again codyppc. :)

I tried that but it wouldn't even let me install the 1.1 version. I had to do a hard reset and restore my phone. Thankfully I did a system backup before I installed your program the first time.

antoniouslj 01-11-2008 01:11 PM
it also helps if you clear your caches using sktools or memaid before and after you install 2.0...

after i uninstalled 1.1 and installed 2.0, it still behaved irradically... but i cleaned everything and did a soft reset and it's perfect!

thanks cody! :wav:

hmmmm, i wounder what caches has to do with anything?

good to know though... thanks

codyppc 01-17-2008 09:46 AM
is anyone using this on the mogul?

does it work or not?

thanks, cody

iwillfearnoevil 01-17-2008 03:49 PM
yes cody. it works. it is slow to install and uninstall but that may be just me. i am using this on my stock sprint mogul, and it works. i occassionally get an error saying failed writing to registry and it lists a registry path where i'm guessing this carrier info is stored.

codyppc 03-05-2008 06:08 PM
Re: Personalize you operators (carrier) name - APP- FREE
