3 Free Cydia Apps to Change iPhone’s Carrier Name Read more: http://www.callingallgeeks.org/3-free-cydia-apps-to-change-iphones-carrier-name/#ixzz2N7RolMXu Under Creative Commons License: Attribution No Derivatives

When you see a custom name instead of the operator’s name on anyone’s iPhone or screenshots on the internet, you might have wondered how do they do this. This tutorial will show you three free cydia apps that can change iPhone’s carrier name. Now you can change it to any fake carrier name or even your own name. We have tested these to work on the latest versions of iOS including iOS 6.1.1.

1. Fake Operator

This application does not have any icon for itself. You need to configure it through the settings app on your iPhone.
While it does not need a reboot or respring to change iPhone’s carrier name, you do need to quit Settings for the changes to take effect. Works perfectly with iOS 4.3.1+

It can be downloaded for free via Cydia. Since, it is hosted on the BigBoss repo no need to add any new repo to Cydia. Just search for Fake Operator using the search tab.

2. FakeCarrier

This app is similar to Fake Operator in functionality. It does have its own icon but that’s not why I like this the most. The good part is that you do not have to quit the app for the changes to be effective. Just type fake carrier name and tap on set to apply it. I have tested FakeCarrier to work on the latest iOS version 4.3.1 on iPhone 4.

Again no extra Repo needs to be added as it is hosted on BigBoss repo. Just go to Cydia and search for FakeCarrier.

3. MakeItMine

MakeItMine is an app by Erica Sadun. Since, this app hasn’t been updated in a while it does not work for iOS version 4.2 and later. Also, it requires you to respring iPhone for changes to take effect. Even though respring feature is included, it is inconvenient compared to the previous two apps.

You can install MakeItMine from the ModMyI repo, which is a default repo in Cydia.

Do let us know, which is your favorite fake carrier application for iPhone and what did you finally change the carrier name to?

How to Enable iPhone Internet Tethering?

On your iPhone, Go to Settings > General > Network and select Internet Tethering

Once you set the switch to On you will be asked whether you want to enable tethering on USB only or USB + Bluetooth. If you select the second option Bluetooth will be turned on in case it was off. A bluetooth icon will appear in your status bar at the top.

In case Bluetooth was already On, tethering will be enabled automatically on Bluetooth and USB. Whether you use tethering over Bluetooth or USB tethering the speed will be the same. If you are travelling use Bluetooth as it consumes much less power.

Now that you have enabled Tethering on your iPhone either connect it your Mac or Windows laptop using the USB cable or just pair it over bluetooth to start accessing the internet.

Bluetooth Pairing Instructions:

Mac: Go to Bluetooth menu in top status bar and select Set up bluetooth device to pair iPhone. Once pairing is done. Select your iPhone from list of devices and click on Connect to Network.
Windows: Right click on the Bluetooth icon in your taskbar and select connect to Bluetooth PAN network. These options may vary depending on the manufacturer or your Bluetooth software.
Once your computer is connected you will see a new blue bar appear on your iPhone screen at the top stating that iPhone Internet Tethering is active. You can just disconnect tethering from your computer and do not need to disable it every now and then.

In fact, while travelling I don’t even need to take out the phone from my pockets. I keep the bluetooth radio On always since it doesn’t consume much power. Whenever, I need to access the internet on my laptop I connect it from the laptop’s bluetooth menu in a one click process.
Wi-fi tethering in the form of Mobile Hotspot is coming to iPhone in March when iOS 4.3 is released. Read more about it here.
Let us know if you found this tutorial useful and if you have any questions or difficulties with internet tethering on your iPhone.

he Jailbreak for iPhone 4 and all other iPhones running iOS 4 has already been released online at Jailbreakme.com by Comex in a way few had expected. Now following that here’s the unlock solution for you all. Use your iPhone 3G/ 3GS/ 4 with any carrier worldwide with this unlock.
This guide has actually been tested on the said devices and works like a charm. The unlock via Ultrasn0w will work on your iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 with almost any baseband. However do make sure that your baseband is one of the following:
Go to Settings > General > About > Modem Firmware to get this info.
iPhone 3G / 3GS Basebands:

• 04.26.08
• 05.11.07
• 05.12.01
• 05.13.04

iPhone 4 Baseband:

• 01.59.00

If your baseband is present in the lists above, that’s positive sign. Proceed with the instructions here and you will have an iPhone ready for any network. Jailbreak your iPhone if you haven’t done that already.

Steps to follow:

• Launch Cydia
• Click on Manage tab
• Click on Sources. Click on the Repo that reads “repo666.ultrasn0w.com”. If its not present click on Edit and then Add. Type the URL without quotes.
• Click on Ultrasn0w and then on the Install button.
• Finally, Click on Confirm

Make sure you have a working wifi or data connection before you click on Confirm as Cydia will try to download the app. Once the process is over the Reboot Device button will appear. Click on it and wait for your iDevice to restart. And you’re done. While it restarts you may put in any other sim card other than the carrier the phone was locked to. It worked the first time for me and without any issues. The network search is pretty fast and takes around 15 seconds maximum to register network.

Go ahead and unlock your iPhone. Let us know if you run into any issues. We might be able to lend a helping hand as always.

How to add custom ringtones to your iPhone?

Easily add custom ringtones to your iPhone using iTunes.

The default ringtones that comes with the iPhone are pretty basic and blank. You can, instead, use your own piece of music as a ringtone on your iPhone. All you need to get this done is an iPhone, Connector Cable and iTunes.
Follow these (simple) steps to add a custom ringtone to your iPhone,

Start by choosing the .mp3 file that you’d like to have a piece of it as your ringtone. Remember that you cannot keep the full mp3 file as your ringtone, instead you can trim a portion of it to be used as a ringtone. The maximum allowed length of the ringtone can be less than 30 seconds.

Open the .mp3 file in iTunes. Right-click the .mp3 file and choose “Get Info“.

Once the Get Info dialog comes-up navigate to the Options tab. If you are using a short .mp3 file as your source then you might not want to touch any of the settings on this tab. But if you trying to extract a portion of the .mp3 file then you wanted to key-in values for the “Start Time” and “End Time” items. Keep in mind that the total length of the ringtone can only be less than 30 seconds.
How do you know the start and end times? Well, if you have Audacity installed then you should be able to grab the start and end time of your clip using Audacity’s trim feature.

Now we are ready to convert the file to a more friendly format that .mp3. Right-click on the same file again and choose the “Convert AAC Version” option.

If you don’t see the option on your right-click menu then go to iTunes > Preferences > General Tab and click on the “Import Settings…” button. Change the “Import Using” dropdown menu to “AAC Encoder“.

Once the file is converted to AAC version it generates a .m4a file. Drag the file to your Desktop (or any other location that you prefer).

Rename the .m4a file to .m4r file. If you have any questions on how to do it the safest way to do is to right-click the .m4a file and choosing the “Get Info” option.

On the dialog that comes up change the extension of the file to .m4r and confirm the rename.

Before you proceed any further you should remove the AAC version of the file that’s on your iTunes.

Now, move the .m4r file that’s on the desktop to the Ringtones folder on iTunes.

Now it’s all pretty much set for you to make use of the custom ringtone. Connect your iPhone and do a Sync.

Once successfully synced, tap on your iPhone Settings app.

Tap on the “Sounds” option.

Then tap on the “Ringtone” option.

iPhone will now display the list of available ringtones and you should be able to see the newly added ringtone at the top of the page under the “Custom” section. Tap on the ringtone name to choose the ringtone as your default iPhone ringtone.
That’s all to it to get a custom ringtone on your iPhone. It may look like a lot of steps involved but basically it’s pretty simple and if you focus a little bit you can get it right on your first attempt and then you’ll love having the ability to make your own custom ringtone for your iPhone.
I hope you find it useful. If you have any questions/comments regarding this please let me know in comments.
