Does anyone know how to get rid of the Verizon wireless branding at the bottom of the lockscreen?
if this is your first time doing it i suggest using this tool:

this will decompile the apk and has a built in text editor.
Bump, anyone with any ideas that can help would be much appreciated.
What rom are you running?
Most Aosp roms have the option to customize the Carrier text.
If the rom does not have that option, Gravity Box should work for you.
