According to Dev-Team, this is caused due to a known bug in ultrasn0w and PwnageTool and it is purely cosmetic, which means your phone works fine even without the carrier logo in place. Follow the steps below to fix this issue.
HTC HD2 is probably the most awaited Windows phone of this fall!

Multi-touch functionality has been continuously attracting consumers attention for the last two years or so.
