One of the most asked and sought after tweak is how to change your Network Operator's name to something much more cooler! As usual, a Registry Editor must be installed on your Treo before proceeding.

1) Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/RIL/OperatorNames using any Registry Editor.
2) Create a new String value using MNC/MCC of your operator as value name.
3) Then under value data, type any desired name.
4) Turn off your Phone or remove the battery (pls allow a min of 20 secs before turning it on again)
5) Turn on your phone again to see the change.

For a complete list of operators, you can check out:

Mobile Network Code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Here's an example. Lets say the Carrier is AT&T which MCC is '310' and MNC is '090'. Then the string value should be set to '310090'.
