Restoring AT&T carrier logo...problem with a TWIST!

OK, so I have a launch day iPhone that worked great until a week ago. Out of no place, the bottom of my touch screen stops working. Don't panic I thought, according to Apple.com I am still covered by warranty until June 29.

I do a full restore so Apple don't see the hack goodies. It all went well except for one thing...the carrier logo is still custom.

I don't think Apple will do much for me if they turn on the iPhone and get:

Searching...
"H4x0r!" instead of "AT&T".

So, anyway to change it back without using the iPhone itself? Can't re-jailbreak it and use MiM because the portion of the screen that doesn't work includes the On Screen keyboard :/

Thoughts?

I still have 10 days under warranty... :-) I'm using OS X, I assume there is a way to do this "manually" using SSH and copying some files...?

Mine did this, too when I restored. Just reset all settings and turn it on and off (hard and soft). I think I eventually got mine to go away, but I rejailbroke, so I'm not sure.

Try a DFU restore. That should take care of it.

I don't know the application name on Mac...but for Windows, you could use iPhoneBroswer to browse (and change) the files on your iPhone.
I am sure you can find a friend (or a foe) who uses Windows
