iHackint0sh Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I have not purchased service yet for my iPhone 4 that is running 5.1.1 (jailbroken) so it displays no service. Would it be possible to change that no service into at&t or verizon or T-mobile with signal bars and/or the 3G logo? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHackint0sh Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 only if you jailbreak it,. Yes I know I have it jailbroken of course. But I have went through every theme for winterboard to get it to work and no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eep357 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 in Cydia, type Verizon into the search page and you should get a couple possible fixes. Can do AT&T too since your just looking for files to mod that part of the status bar the name of the carrier don't matter too much or, in SBsettings go to "more settings" then System Options and change there. Custom carrier (makeitmine), delete carrier name, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRacerMaster Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I'm not 100% of this will work, but it's worth a shot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eep357 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 why you trying to fake the bars? you could dive into the file system and find the images for the "bars gui" and replace the no signal and low signal images with the full bars image renamed to match the previous files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know how to edit the no service/ no sim into other names but how would I add an image to the status bar? I know where the bars are but I need some help on doing it. In the springboard.strings it shows the No_sim and Searching and No_service can I put a picture for those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eep357 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I've only done it in OSX, where for example for wifi there are like five different pdf or tiff files all of which are images of the different signal states, so wifi-1.pdf would be with one bar, wifi-2.pdg is two bars, etc. in which case you would make 5 duplicates of the full signal image (wifi-4.png) and rename them to match the others and replace the others with them too. So when system thinks its putting up a 1 bar image the actual picture is a full bar image. As to where the UI elements in IOS are hidden away I don't know, sometimes for certain UI elements OSX will use artfile.bin and sartfile.bin files which are compressed image bundles that need to be decompiled, but does not use them for the menubar images. Hopefully ios is the same way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is, it doesn't always stay equpped when in apps like cydia and will return to the wifi bars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
