Its not just a splash screen. The image name is Splash but the hex value for HTC is 9d000000, not 92000000.
If you replace 9d000000 for 92000000 it will only replace the seccond splash and not the first one. you want to make sure you have it like this:
HTC 9d000000 Splash
Splash 92000000 Splash
That helps alot. Cause I was editing TNT and couldnt recompress everything cause nd2ndf doesnt have an option htc... when I get on my PC ill mess with it a bit.

No problem man. Thats what I'm here for... To share the knowledge I have accumulated through trial and error for everyone to learn from.
Tomorrow I begin my cooking experiments... =P

My reccomendation: start small... I started changing page pools and then combining nk.nbf files and things like that. Now I have basic cooking skills at that but am working on it.
If you want to know how to change the splash-screens:
Use my tools posted here, or use a kitchen that has them (like core kitchen).

I know a little about rom cooking but I guess you'll either have to edit the registry hive or edit some /windows folder file.
Where do you want your name to appear? You can put it in the version number when you finalize the .nb to .nbh. You can also put it on the splash screen and different places but you don't seem to specify where.

The easiest way to do that is by using PkgToolsBuildos-4.3b1 from ervius. You can download it from here:

Tutorials, do we have any tutorials I can start reading to cook a ROM for HTC HD?
Is it easy or is something only the xda experts can do?
The HD Kitchen is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438456
Try reading up on the wiki about using the kitchens also.
Thanks
Dave
I have the kitchen on my now, however it´s a strange program for me, I would really need some kind of manual/tutorial
Where is the Wiki for HD Kitchen, I don´t find it :S

Have a look at Alex's KaiserKitchen tutorial (even play with it if you want) you'll get most of the idea from there (on the wiki here). The idea is a bit strange at first, but you get used to it. Some useful videos here too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1968557
Thanks

i downloaded the file, but can`t open it. ned the .rar password?

There are many tutorials for the other kitchens. A kitchen is a collection of tools. All the the tools in most kitchens are the same.
Check out the wiki and search the forum, the answers are there... (trust me I found them)

The password is in the readme file. You need the latest version of WinRar (or personally I prefer 7z), so just get it, and you will be able to look the password up.

There are so many out there already. They just weren't written for the HD kitchen, but basically it is the same idea. So just read through some tutorials and you will get it. I think a good starting point is this thread.
thanks for the info. i am a totally rookie at this. i just want to try to build a rom with apps in it. i will look into it.
This is not a "release candidate" or not even a beta...w/e
Its just a test rom with manila (black version) and drivers from HTC Quartz.
otherwise its built on same base as 3.01 wwe only
I buildt this just to see for myself, and I actually like this manila better then blackstone one. (no big changes) sooo, I just decided to share the fun
no need to post bugreports or issues, cause I will not care and totally ignore them.
No need to ask whats in the rom, cause if you can read and think you would have noticed that I just wrote its the same base as 3.01
THERE IS ABSOLUTLY NO SUPPORT ON THIS RELEASE
DOWNLOAD
Rapidshare mirror?^^
I will take a look at it. For now theres anyway no rom released that pleases me.
You always find the coolest stuff. I was looking for that Quartz stuff for a while and couldn't find a thing. I'm gonna have to try this sucker out.

try the link I put in itjes 3.0 thread.
Damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
The Manila looks good. Also seen it on preview videos
What about just releasing the the manila.cab port from it? Wouldnt it be easier to install that rather than flashing it since its the same as your 3.01 rom?
superb rom!
feels slightly snappier then 3.01 but might just be subjective..

theres also an oem package appeared on dev&hacking, and more importantly a as ov yet unworking version of pie8 !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466899
watching that one closely, as im thoroughly unimpressed with pie6...
I dunno if i got an old version or something but it looked exactly the same as the old PIE.

aight, thx.
I'm going back to 3.01 from this rom, found one and only bug today.
Gps is hard locking when going into standby.
Can't work out a fix for it, and it was a sod as I was cycling 75 miles back home on a route I didn't know...

cab uploaded,
Not tested it though, but looking at it it does the same as copying the files and importing the reg.
This works fine on this rom and ITJEs 3.01 rom. I guess it uses the newer pie builds as it doesn't have an exe in there..

C'mon itje, why protect this as no support or anything? I want to extract the rom to get the tf3d from it, or can you make a cab like
ITJE'S max4g touchflo3d version.cab?
me wants it...
and the tf3d is not more than 655 manilla files, that should make the device a little snappier..
EDIT: or juust post the files!

ive been looking for that same cab to.

Ya, that would be cool.. I would be interested if such a creature existed
Start Icons Skins QVGA-WQVGA-VGA and How-to
There's not already a Vista Orb VGA but not hard to make
I'll get an image ready and resource i'll need is shellres.192.dll can be extracted with ROM Extractor attached.
This resource will have to be each person as ROMs can change the images in Settings etc.

Provide the resource requested and i'll give it a shot "all my ROMs are customized via resources but sometimes you find a ROM that doesn't take the adjustment"

oh how do I find out whats my .dll ? all I know its stock sprint phone company.
Some quick splashes I made, you have to have ENG S-OFF to put it into your phone. Get phone into bootloader fastboot, and run commands: (googlesplash.img has to be in the same folder as fastboot.exe)
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 splashname.img
fastboot reboot

Nice one thanks.
It would be great if we could make this a thread with different splash screens...
Then let's make one from this one? I could edit the title.
