Magento 1.9 – How to Edit ‘This Shipping Method is Currently Unavailable’ Message

magento-1.9shipping

In Magento 1.9 we need to edit message "This shipping method is currently unavailable. If you would like to ship using this shipping method, please contact us."

This message is displayed when the "Proceed to shipping method" button is clicked, while a shipping address was entered incorrectly (like zip doesn't match state) and user still selected that address as a shipping address.

So we want to change the message correspondingly (something like "We cannot find the address specified, please correct it.").

I have found "This shipping method is currently unavailable…" message in so many places and edited the message in all of them:

app/code/community/Shipperhq/Shipper/etc/config.xml
app/code/core/Mage/Shipping/etc/config.xml
app/code/core/Mage/Usa/etc/config.xml
app/code/core/Mage/Shipping/Model/Rate/Result/Error.php

I created "local" copies of those config.xml and the Error.php files in case they would override the core and community ones:

app/code/local/Shipperhq/Shipper/etc/config.xml
app/code/local/Mage/Shipping/etc/config.xml
app/code/local/Mage/Usa/etc/config.xml
app/code/local/Mage/Shipping/Model/Rate/Result/Error.php

I also found the message in Magento Admin:
System->Configuration->Sales->Shipping Method (so I changed the message in all the methods there)…

Flushed Magento Cache and Cache Storage…

But it still displays the same old message.

Please advice where and how to edit that persistent message "This shipping method is currently unavailable. If you would like to ship using this shipping method, please contact us." Thank you much in advance!
