Just to let you all know that this carrier fix is no longer necessary as long as you want to update to the latest baseband which we can now unlock with blacksnow. Just upadated my 3G, jailbroke it and unlocked it with blackrain and blacksnow. Carrier problem fixed and still unlocked!

Hi!
It seems every iPhone upgrader with Jailbreak has this problem.
I have jailbroken and unlocked my handset using PwnageTool 3.1.4 using the custom IPSW file for OS 3.1.2 Am using a 3 (UK) SIM and the iPhone is showing Mobistar, all basic functions are working fantastic!

Have been reading several forums, all stating ONE obvious FACT.
‘Custom JailBreak’ has some sort of old/incorrect plist for carrier details, which is why so many people are having exactly the same carrier name displayed.

I have found that you can edit a file on your handset linked to your network service provider. This does require some technical knowledge and you have to be very confident to be able to do this on your own.
It is 95% possible chance that we can FIX this issue.

I am going to try this..

If you wish to learn more, google all your questions. I spent weeks on it!

Hey

Issue I have is that while it does show the logo the SIM card is registered to (ie: Optus in Australia), I am currently roaming in the UK where Optus have affiliated carriers who give you cheaper rates, so it’s actually important to know which carrier’s network I’m on at any given time (to avoid paying a truckload in fees). Unfortunately though, the reception here is often crap so I leave the network selection on Automatic – just so I can get a signal and receive calls if necessary. However, without going into Carrier settings each and everytime to check who the network has flicked me to, I have no way of telling as the logo will always say ‘Optus’, regardless…

Without turning downgrading to 3.0.1, anyone recommend any other solutions to the carrier logo prob with 3.2.1 (on iPhone 3G).

Cheers
S
