iName "device" Glitch o_O
So I own a jailbroken iPod Touch 4th Generation running on IOS 4.2.1 w/ GreenPois0n RC6.
I was attempting to change the name in the top left corner from iPod to something different. I used "Make It Mine" & "Fake Operator" both with no success. I then tried "iName". After I resprung my iPod, it says "device".
Now I can't even change it back to normal. Can someone please help me out here. Thanx!

Yes,
I have tried many of the tools to do this... I am happy to report there is a fix. it is called ChangeCarrier in the BigBoss repo. will show ya it works in screenshot.. notice the red boxes. NOTE: Run Carrier & type in what you want, then before closing: click the "carrier" button. then respring... However I noticed that on mine I had to reboot before it worked.

to get those back u need ifile. go in ifile and navigate here:
var/mobile/Library/Libhide/hidden.plist
and delete these 2 lines form it:
<string>com.apple.MobileAddressBook</string>
<string>com.apple.VoiceMemos</string>

After I fixed the name, I just backed up my things and restored but thank you so much for helping me with the name!

Yes, Fake Carrier worked great for fixing the "device" problem. Unfortunately, I still don't have a Contact or Voice icon. I went into iFile, and found no hidden.plist file in /var/mobile/Library/Libhide
Damn.
Anyone have any other hints for getting these back (short of doing a full restore)?
