I meant the actual operator name. It’s displayed as text either Netz (German for "network", which is... not the actual name) or as something like ⅛£⅜±⅛°%).

- robert_tweed 8y agoOften the operator name is a bitmap logo, but they probably have a text version now as well. That looks like a unicode encoding error to me, might require a firmware update on your phone. I have’t looked at any of this for years so I can’t give any up to date information unfortunately.
- jfim 8y agoIt's been a while since I've done any telecom work, but from what I recall, the SIM card just sends a message to your phone with the operator name. The origin of that string could either be baked in the default app running on the SIM card or come from a message received from the network (eg. for a multi carrier SIM card).
