Hi Calix,

you're great!!!
It worked just like you said.
I bought a Verizon Storm2 9550 and use it in ISRAEL @ Cellcom.

After I followed your instructions I have "Cellcom - 3Comxxxx" (my WiFi connection name) at the top of my home screen instead of the annoying announcement.

Thanks a lot, man.
You are the man.
