Can You Remove the Carrier Name on iPhone?
Officially there is no way to remove it. You can’t remove your current carrier’s logo from your iPhone unless you want to jailbreak it and spoof your IMEI or iCloud. However, with some cleverly placed photos, you can turn it into an ad for a product or service if that makes sense for your company. Since Apple doesn’t give anyone access to changing how their logo displays without jailbreaking, any solution will have to be a hack.
