How to Change BSNL Mobile Display to CellOne: A Comprehensive Guide

When you use a mobile network, the name displayed can vary based on several factors. If you've been noticing BSNL Mobile instead of CellOne, this guide will help you understand the reasons behind this change and provide steps to modify the display name if possible. This information is particularly useful for users of Android and iOS devices.

Understanding the Display Changes

There can be multiple reasons why your mobile name displays BSNL Mobile:

Network rebranding: BSNL may have rebranded their services and removed the CellOne name. Network policies: Different policies in different regions can lead to varying display names. Network signals: Sometimes, the displayed name can depend on the strength and type of network signal (2G, 3G, etc.).

Steps to Change Display Name on Android Devices

To revert the display name back to CellOne, you can try modifying the Access Point Name (APN) settings. However, success may vary:

Open the Settings App: Look for the Settings app in your Android device and tap it to open it. Access Network Internet Settings: Scroll down or navigate to the section labeled 'Network Internet.' Tap Mobile Network: Find and tap on the 'Mobile Network' option. Select Network Operators: Further down, tap on 'Network Operators.' Change APN Name if Applicable: Here, you might find the option to change the APN name. If available, you can change it to 'CellOne.'

Note: Depending on your device and BSNL's policies, changing the APN name may not reflect in the display name. Additionally, these steps may vary based on the android version and device model.

Steps to Change Display Name on iOS Devices

For iOS devices, directly changing the network display name is not possible:

Open the Settings App: Tap on the Settings app. Navigate to Cellular Networks: Scroll down to and tap on the 'Cellular' or 'Cellular Networks' option. Check for Network Options: Here, you'll see various options related to your cellular network. However, iOS does not allow manual changes to the network name.

Both Android and iOS users should be aware that if BSNL has rebranded and removed the CellOne name, it may not be possible to revert it back through any settings.

Contacting Customer Support

If you're uncertain about the reasons behind the display name or need more assistance, consider contacting BSNL customer support. They can provide clarification on the rebranding and any options available to you.

For additional notes and practical tips:

Network signal variations might affect the displayed network name. Following regional policies can help in understanding why the display name might change. Contacting customer support is a reliable option for further guidance.

Understanding and modifying the network name display can provide a more personalized user experience. However, it's essential to keep in mind that certain modifications may not be available or effective due to rebranding or technical limitations.
