The one that shows up in the status panel, which is replaced by roaming etc when not on the default network. I ask this because I'm not on Sprint (imported) so it kind of bothers me that it shows that. I know there's ways to change it on HTCs and the Droids, but I'm at a loss on what to do on Galaxy S.

Sprint. I loaded a custom PRL that identifies my network as its home, so basically I'm looking for a way to change the home network identifier from "Sprint" to whatever. In the examples I mentioned, people changed it to their name in an understandable display of narcissism.

Alot of the deva have been trying their hardest and it just keeps boot looping they said. It can't be done right now because unlike the fascinate, the Epic runs TW2.5 instead of 3.0. Gotta wait for 3.0 to be availible on the Epic I believe

Really? Whenever I long press an app it only gives the option to put it on my homescreens. When i press Menu in the app drawer it only says List View , and when i long press the bottom icons it does nothing lol. But when I press the home button it lets me edit however many homescreens I want and it also has the numbers on the dots at the top showing which screen im on so I thought it was just a partial 3.0 or something haha.

Open the launcher, hit menu, select 'view type', choose 'customizable grid'.
Then hit menu again, and now select 'edit'.
Of course this is if you are rocking the Epic Experience ROM

The reason we got 2.5 is cause 3.0 wasn't working right in landscape mode. Are phone automatically goes into landscape once the keyboard is slide out. The other galaxy s phones do not have these keyboard. So landscape mode wouldn't pose a issue

WOW MAN I LOVE YOU!
lol I was like what the EFF why can't I move my bottom icons thanks so much this tip should be included in the features of the epic exp rom!
Porting the lockscreen would require using baksmali to mod the framework-res.apk. I've looked at it and it was way over my head. People without coding experience need not apply.
so, if it doesnt work right with TW2.5 and epic experience has TW3.0 from the fascinate then why dont we just port it onto epic experience? wouldnt that make it much easier?
EDIT: epic experience uses TW3.0 from the vibrant past 1.2.01. not sure what the difference is but it still should make porting it easier.

My kids had the transform for a while; which came with sprint id. Sounds like a good concept; but it really wasn't very good.
Who knows, perhaps they learned from the whoas from Transform users. Maybe, doubt it though.
I know for myself; Sprint ID will never be installed on my Epic.
Good luck!!

Assuming you're on Windows.
Open your file manager to the SDK path:
C:\path\to\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools\ (Image)
Double click on ddms.bat (ddms = Dalvik Debug Monitor Service)
Note: just minimize the command prompt that appears, it will go away when you close ddms.
Enable USB debugging on the phone and connect to the PC
Select your device within the list (Image)
Select Device > Screen Capture (Image)
From there you can take a screenshot by pressing the Save button.
Note: you have to press the Refresh button with each screen transition. It is not a live screen cast of your phone.
If you have issues, then make sure you declare the JDK bin path in system environment variables under "PATH". If device shows as "offline" in ddms, then try another USB port.

Btw, to get there, u have to open the apk as an archive. When you get there, open the file with a text editor (notepad++ is best) and press ctrl-f or apple-f if on a mac and search for every mention of the word, sprint, and change those to cricket or whatever you want.

It's funny, I change this on all of my roms and that's not how I do it. If that works, then I've been doing it the hard way, but the way I do it is to decompile /system/framework-res.apk and edit /res/values/strings.xml. Changing the word "Sprint" to whatever I want with Notepad++.
