Hi there, anyone know a way to get the 4G symbol to say LTE on the reception signal? I prefer it. Thanks for the help! :)

I can do it for you. When do you want it to say LTE? When you're connected to HSPA/+? 4G?

Well I live in Canada so I have access to band 4. I'd like it to say LTE when it's on LTE. :)

AW: LTE symbol instead of 4G possible?

It would be nice to know how you are proceeding exactly, because mine doesn't say H+, but just H. (I can see the correct type of connection in settings) This does not appear on CM, but on stock and AOKP.

That's the way it's shown in the ROM's. I can still change it for you to say LTE instead.

You should probably make one for stock 4.2.1 while you're at it (H or H+ to 4g). A lot of people are asking for this. Might as well make a thread in themes and apps for it. :)

Yeah, I probably will after I make some more signal mods. Hey, can someone give me the SystemUI.apk from the latest ParanoidAndroid? I can't download it for some reason. I also need someone who is on stock to pull the SystemUI.apk. The easiest way is to do it using adb: adb pull system/app/SystemUI.apk

Here is stock. Are you going to change the "H" to "4g" or "lte"?

Is it possible to teach me how to do it? Paranoid android is currently a nightly so the ROM version changes a lot.

It'd be easier to make a zip themer/metorph file don't you think?

Here's the H-4G mod for people who are on stock: Stock H-to-4G mod
Just add it to system/app, change permissions to r-w-r-r and reboot. Let me know if it works. I still need the SystemUI for the latest PA and an LTE logo. I thought there was one already included in the SystemUI.apk.

To mod the SystemUI.apk yourself you have to copy the logo you want to replace the signal with to your desktop (that's where I put it, you can put it somewhere else). After you do that, open up the "drawable-sw600dp-xhdpi", find the icon of the H or H+ (depends what ROM you're on), change the name of the 4G logo on your desktop to match the one in the folder, and replace it. Do the same thing for "drawable-sw720dp-xhdpi" and "drawable-xhdpi". That's it!

OP, how's this for an LTE icon? I don't have a Nexus 4 (One X), but I just looked inside the SystemUI posted above and the icons are the same resolution. I created it myself.
