    Default changing answer and decline text

    how can i change the text that shows up when someone calls me. right now it is the default "Answer" and "Decline". i want it to say "Bro" and "Ho". i dont want to create a whole new button..just change the text.

    i think ive googled enough to find out that it's the General.strings file that i need to edit. i cant find a converter anywhere on the internet so i can edit the file. if this is the wrong file to be editing, please tell me. if its right, can someone find me a converter that works and is fairly easy?

    thanks!

    Yes, you can edit the strings in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/TelephonyUI.framework/English.lproj/General.strings (replace English.lproj with the language you have set on your phone).

    See my signature for ways to edit such files.
    Windows tool to edit .plist, .strings and .nib files: pledit.
    Or use a website that will convert the binary form to a readable format.
    On iPhone you can convert those files in a terminal with plutil (installed with Erica Utilities from Cydia), or edit them with iFile (from Cydia).
