This will only work on an iPhone or iPad with 3G/LTE service. So no iPod support!
CarrierEditor is similar to Zeppelin, but for non-jailbroken devices!
Video explaining how:
Written explanation:
Step 1: Download CarrierEditor (MAC only for now)
Step 2: Once you've downloaded the file, open it up and copy CarrierEditor to your Applications folder. Also, make sure you copy the "Zeppelin Logos" folder to your desktop.
Step 3: Launch CarrierEditor, then click on "Let's Get Started." First, we need to find the device's carrier version. Go into the Settings app on your device, tap on "General" and then tap on "About."
Look for the row labeled "Carrier" and take note of the version number listed. Next, enter your carrier version number into the text box within CarrierEditor, then click on "Next."
Step 4: On the next screen you'll have the ability to select your device and carrier. Not all carriers are supported, but there's quite a long list of them to choose from. Once you've selected the device and carrier, click on "Next."
Step 5: Once you've made it to the "Customization" screen, you'll have the ability to add a custom logo for your carrier replacement. The application includes a wide variety of custom logos that are located in the "Zeppelin Logos" folder. (Yes you can create your own images)
Step 6: Open iTunes and connect your iOS device with its USB cable. Click on your device within iTunes and locate the "Restore iPhone…" button. While holding down the "alt / option" key, click on "Restore iPhone…" and navigate to your desktop within the dialog box. CarrierEditor has created two files on your desktop. The file names will depend on your carrier and version number. Select the ".ipcc" file that does not include the word "original" in its name.
Once you've selected the carrier update file, iTunes may show you an "Updating carrier settings" box. After you're finished, reboot your device. Within a minute or two you should see your new custom carrier logo appear at the top of the screen.
If you'd like to revert back to your original carrier logo, revisit step six above and load the "original.ipcc" file. After a quick reboot your carrier logo will revert back to normal.
