Manually setting the namespace for a Service Reference

When a Web Reference is added in Visual Studio the generated proxy class automatically uses a default namespace which consists of the application’s default namespace together with the web reference name. the problem is i have a profile web service which all my projects use that in order to authenticate. Because of the namespace i cant add a profile class as a link. Now I wonder if there is any way to manually set the Reference name? (or maybe there is a better way which could solve my problem.) So far I've found this:

1- Go to the service Reference.cs and then rename the namespace.(the problem is every time i update the service the namespace goes back to the default)

2- I found this :Manually setting the namespace for a web service proxy class in Visual Studio(the problem is i have to change the build event which it could cause the unexpected errors.)

Use "Custom Tool" option with wsdl.exe and give the required parameters. Whenever you want to update the service reference run the custom tool by using below mentioned option.

/n[amespace]:namespace
