How To Remove the Verizon Wireless Banner

go into the test CDMA menu type in 47*68#13580 then go to option 4 or 5 and chnage the type of network. Then It will restart the phone and it will not have any service but you will see that its only time no Verizon Wireless Banner. Then go back into the menu and change it back to the mode it was on. It should be like CDMA normal or something like that and then it will restart and you will have service and the Verizon Wireless banner will be gone.

You can also go to the yahoo group and download the verizon banner tool removal. There are some people that say it works. Other say it doesn't

did anyone try this?

I did it by typing 47*68#13580 then hitting #04 change it to somthing differnt then press #02 (it will reboot the phone) Then I typed 47*68#13580 agian did the #04 option agian changed it back and poof service agian and the version banner is gone. I did this on both mine and my wifes phone. Worked like a charm!

I don't get why people want to get rid of the Verizon Wireless Banner??
That can easily tell you if you are on there network or not.
Especially now since most extended networks your roaming light won't flash anymore.

Because it's annoying! heheh

DO NOT DO IT!!! it will kill your transmitter! i have to go exchange my phone now...DONT DO IT@!!!

How does it kill your transmitter on your phone??

uhm yeah dude you must have a wierd phone or somethign or didnt chaneg it back becasue it doesnt do anythign to your phone....

I think i hit a wrong key when doing this because my battery went down to one bar and thats when its fully charged. Does anybody know how to fix this, please help i have a a650.

I agree that it's a bit annoying. Takes up room on the screen, and that does get important with smaller phones.

Also, with some phones, you can change the Verizon logo to whatever you want, and it is the same as having the Verizon logo on there.

But now with the new plans that Verizon has (no roaming anymore), you don't need to worry about roaming, or the roaming indicator.

I guess i should stress that this should only be done with an a670 unless you knwo what you are doing

I figured it out i hit 70 and then chaged it so the battery was always dead but i fixed it.
