That's right folks. I don't know if I'm the only person in the world that didn't know this or what, but here's a short-n-sweet guide to change the carrier logo via the IPCC file. What's nice about this is that you CAN do this on a iPhone 3GS, as I have shown in the SS below. I tried to use a feature that only the 3GS had to prove it.

You do NOT need to jailbreak for this!!



This guide is for windows

What you need:

WinRAR
An IPCC file
Whatever carrier logo you want.
iTunes 8.2 w/ IPCC updating enabled.
Carrier Logo (One from SS here)

To enable IPCC update, be sure that iTunes is not running, and bring up a run dialog (WINDOWS+R) and then copy this: "CProgram Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe" /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1

• You need to change the IPCC file from *.ipcc to *.zip (seriously, do not put an asterisk there)
• Now browse the ZIP Payload > *.bundle >
  • Locate the files Default_CARRIER_*.png and FSO_CARRIER_*.png, where * is your carrier's name
  • Delete them
• Now Alt+A (click Add) and locate the carrier logo you want to insert. Be sure that it is named properly
• After you've inserted the new files, close out of it.
• Rename the file back to *.ipcc
• Go into iTunes and SHIFT click "Check for Update", change the file type to IPCC in the box that pops up.
• Locate the file, click OK.
• You are now rockin' a custom carrier logo on your iPhone.

The only thing I don't know about is where to locate IPCC files. I'm on AT&T, on an iPhone 3GS (32GB), and was able to find one easily. For all other carriers, IDK, sorry. I'm sure that google is your friend, but yeah.

Neat mod this might serve as a little drool factor for all the kiddies waiting impatiently for the 3G[S] Jailbreak

That's what it serves for me for now. It's the only other mod I was able to do, besides enabling MMS and Tethering on my 3GS
