Mobistar carrier logo

I guess all the tags are in the title :p

Here are the retina display compatible icons for Mobistar (right click – save as)

Use iPhonebrowser to copy them to:

/User/Library/Carrier Bundle.bundle

You must use iPhonebrowser, because just copying them via SSH will not modify the PNGs so that they show on iOS…

I didn’t have to use MakeItMine, although I have read other people that needed to change their carrier logo with it before the new retina-icons show…

I’ll put them in a IPCC after I have figured out how to enable tethering on a iPhone 4 – if that is possible…

    Je kan tethering activeren met tetherme via cydia… Een goede ipcc zou tof zijn :-)
    Waarom mogen die logo’s niet via SSH gekopieerd worden? En waarom niet in de mobistar_be.bundle?

    Because: “The PNG images found on the iPhone cannot be viewed by a standard image viewer. Apple, for some unknown reason, implemented a non-standard PNG format that includes an extra data before the PNG header and compressed image data without the traditional headers and footers. In addition, the red blue pixels are flipped (BGRA instead of RGBA). All iPhone PNG images appear to follow this format.

    iPhonebrowser converts PNG files when copying them from/to the iPhone. If you want to SSH them, you must change them to the non-standard PNG format manually…

    And you can place the icons in that directory too.. I’m under the impression that Apple played a lot with symlinks and placing some of them double in different directories, it’s a mess!

    Ik heb dit ook geprobeerd (voor Base), maar het wil toch niet lukken; ik blijf ‘BASE’ krijgen bovenaan. Is er ergens een IPCC voor Base (BelgiĆ«) te vinden?

    What are the names of the 2 PNG files in your /User/Library/Carrier Bundle.bundle directory?
