Change carrier name on PA - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
I'm on the latest build of PA. Is there anyway to change the carrier name displayed in the notifications and lock screen?
Thanks.

There's no actual option in the settings to do this, but you can do it manually by editing XML files.

Messaging box color

Hey,
Just picked up this phone came from a Note 2.
Anyways i cant find any settings to get the messaging box where all the texts are from everyone to be black. its white/gray and it looks ugly with my swiftkey thanks
Cedric
Hey bud, I'm guessing you want to change the color of the bubbles? Go to the main text screen (shows all your active texts) and hit the menu button on your phone. From there you'll be able to access settings and change a few things.
EDIT= Just realized what you were talking about. I hate it too! I have everything on my phone dark and that's the only screen that's white. I'm not sure if you can change it.

Mines black by default? See my screenshot below.
But someone over in the theming section remade the apk, I think you can just install it, might have to replace the old one I'm not sure since mines black and I don't need it.
Ahh it's going to drive me crazy. And I don't want to root it.

Try this modded apk from the themes section. I believe you can just install it without needing to root

How? No idea, I've got the Rogers S4 up in Canada so maybe its our firmware? My SMS/MMS contacts and dialer are all black by default, wait till you have an unlocked boot loader and maybe flash our ROM? There's also no lag
If anybody wants to try to use my default SMS /MMS here's a link to a zip with both the apk and odex files you'll need to copy into yours system / apps folder
**THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP**
**YOU MUST EXTRACT MANUALLY AND PUSH MANUALLY**
Side note : you make be able to simple side load the apk as normal but I'm not sure. Report back if you'd like
I can also do contacts / dialer as well
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xuepksbhn22lla4/SecMMS.zip
Might be interested in the contacts apk....first going to see if I can get the MMS to at&t to work

Hey buddy I would love for you to help us out. I'm not rooted so I'm not sure if it matters. I extracted the file into the System Application folder. I can click on the APK but after trying to install it, it says cannot install application. Help!

You would have to change image in the framework res apk no dpi folder but this will change the background system wide

I used rom toolbox. I went into settings on phone changed font to anything but robots. Picked font on rom toolbox, downloaded. Then restart phone, go back into settings and now pick robots. The font you downloaded will be applied under the robots name. Then restart phone again and new font will be everywhere. Works great

If you would be so kind and give me the following information:
- your phone model
- ROM version
- is your phone rooted
Some ROM variants have problems with the Roboto fonts (inaccurate display), if you are rooted I can provide you with the files you need to fix the issue.
EDIT: also, no need for bumping your topic every 5 minutes. When someone comes who can help you solve your problem, they will help. Just be patient.

One thing worth mentioning is that when i had xposed installed with a few modules it was ok. After uninstalling them it became like this. Don't really know if there is a connection
Sent from my LG-D802
Which modules did you use? While you may be using Smart Gothic, the widget itself might use Roboto.
Try this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0b08vcipbuge9at/fonts_10e.zip
1. Unpack to /system (the .xml to system/etc, the fonts to system/fonts)
2. Reboot
Let us know if it works.
