Feature description

Allow customization of text within sim icon (carrier name for example) and its color in "type a message" field for dual sim phones.

Why do you want this feature?

Number in the sim icon is not as easily visible, you have to pay attention. Colors are easier to see and our brain registers them quicker.

Btw on that thread the issue of long name has been raised, most carriers in countries I am aware of have names starting with different letters, so the initial letter of carrier can just be used.

What in case someone has two SIM cards from the same carrier (e.g., a private number and business number)?

Main, Secondary Work, Home Based on usage or something else Can be sorted out by the end user and since they would have created the differentiation between the two, they are more likely to remember what they assigned for each sim
