[Q] How do I change provider name on lock screen. - Epic 4G General

Can anyone give me pointers on what I should use or do to change the name of my phone provider that shows up on the basic lock screen? Sprint for instance? I know certain theme-rs do this. Emotionless Beast is an example of what I'm talking about. Any thoughts?

I posted a how to. I can't link to it from my phone

I looked through about 6 or 7 pages of your recent posts and I'm still not seeing it. If you could post a link when you have the time I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advanced.

It's in themes and apps I think, the search button is your friend.

Gotta love people who use the old "the search button is your friend" line instead of offering help. You would think someone who has been on this site since 2007 such as I would know how to use a search function, would you not? I mean come on man.
Does anyone have any key words they might suggest searching for since everything I have searched for is bringing up nothing. Thanks again (all who are helpful anyway)

I too would love some help as I need to flaunt the cricket

No offense taken bro but as I said earlier, you've had a crap load of posts and I dont see a filter for just those "started" by you =] Maybe I'm just not seeing it. Thanks for the help though.

Hey man thanks greatly for the link to the answer to my original question but more importantly for shedding some light on how to search for the "threads started by X user" info. Greatly appreciated. I'll utilize the hell out of that in the future. Also thank you for being so humble and so helpful.

Yes, of course! One major difference is the ability to identify people NOT using the Search function here.....

You must not get angry, it's just a suggestion. Anyway, welcome to XDA. The right section for your question is the General. There you'll find what you need.

You're the one who is wrong here...
At least you could have shown one tiny little bit of intelligence by admitting it.

Extremely upset.

I'm posting this here because I know my fellow G2-ers will help me out. Yesterday night I posted in the straight general forum asking to trade my other G2 for a mytouch 4G. I was unaware that I was posting in the wrong place, and couldn't find the right forum. Well I received a message from a mod, saying I was docked 5 points and I lost all of my post counts and everything. This is rather upsetting because I feel as I help this forum out as much as I can, and when I'm penalized for something like this, it makes me want to remove my account. It was simply an accident. Is there a way I can get in contact with a mod, and talk to them and maybe get this turned around? Its rather frustrating. Any help is welcomed.

I don't mean to be a bother, but they might get after you for this too. This seems to be an issue with the forum/moderators, not a G2 issue...
I would contact the moderators themselves if I were you, posting a thread to the users who don't have power won't be very productive.
I hope this gets resolved though, it doesn't seem fair at all.
who was the mod?
5 points? I didn't know xda had a point system..

Patrick,
Have you been warned about posting in the wrong thread before or anything? I know it takes a warning and they will do something like that but it does seem drastic to take away thanks AND all your posts. That is a bit extreme...
there was a massive misunderstanding. everythinghas been fixed and my posts will be restored within a few days. im not sure really what happen, but im not worried anymore. i appreciate everyones thoughts.

Some mods might let things go to their heads sometime. Sometimes members can be annoying and not follow rules. What can we do? Follow rules, not be internet power hungry passive agressive pricks. Simple.

Yup. I haven't seen cases of power-hungry mods here at xda, but at other forums they're more prevalent. It would be nice if websites could have a form that regular members can fill out to report a moderator.

Not sure what happened here, but I checked your posts and nothing seems to be removed or anything... Can you confirm it's all sorted? I don't see anything untoward here. Also, mods don't edit user profiles (the home town/etc fields)

Go to my profile and check the threads I've started.
BTW, it seems like every time I point out thqt a thread in posted in the wrong place the mode end up moving it.
fwiw, I was really trying to help the op get better exposure in the place it will be seen by those who can provide answers. I don't really appreciate your flaming posts.

I'm not concerned with the fact that you probably press the report button so much they side with you to shut you up.
Nor am I concerned with the fact that you "don't really appreciate" my posts towards you.
I don't appreciate your posts.
You do nothing but back seat moderate instead of discuss.
At least here in the Evo Forum.
Oh wait, I should correct myself, you just explained that you do something illegal to get around paying insurance [and still pay more in the end lol] in the other thread.
At any rate, I have nothing more to say on this, I sincerely hope that XDA gives you plenty of posts you can backseat moderate today so that, at least in your book, you can mark this day as a "good day."
Enjoy.

How does S2W work?

Hi, I just tried out Touch Control and its amazing. I want to know how does sweep to wake work.
I read the developer saying the digitizer turns off when you lock the screen, so basically how does the phone monitor my touch? Also, will using this for a long term have any effects on my touchscreen? I hope not, because I'm hooked to this.

I dont know, Im using touchcontrol with doubletap2wake and works fine, better than s2w, battery life seems the same and it does work even after hours with the screen off
I've been using it since january-february without any effects/issue on my touchscreen, my phone is almost 1 year old

Is not that no one is interested is that when people want to find out things they generally search them. If you do some searching you will probably find all the answers you need. Also ill effects can only be determined on your end by simply testing out the app.

I've searched enough for this and I couldn't find one thread, one website answering my question. Perhaps you could research too on your behalf, and see if it's at least there after searching, before blabbering like the rest of the idiots here? I don't mind the 150 people who didn't answer, its because they didn't know the answer. But you had to mimic others and say the same things all over again. SEARCH! SEARCH! Yes Sir, I already have, so shut up.
Also, I'm not interested in breaking my touchscreen just "to see the I'll effects". What the **** is wrong in asking a question?
