Hello All been tryin to change my boot screen and im havin trouble Can anyone help me please
What's the prob. ?
I have that BSF3000 and its not workin i followed directions and everything please help me
The way I did mine was I used winrar to open up the rom went to the folder where the image is and replaced it with what I wanted once I can get on the computer in like 30-45 I will tell u exactly and I looked at some other custom images from peoples theme by opening their "theme".zip and seeing what size the mask and shine images were and the bit ddepth and everything so I could make sure I had everything right. Hope that helped like I said I can give more details if u need when I get on computer
To change splash1, boot into fastboot (back+power). Load up a cmd window, and type:
fastboot flash splash1 <file location> mysplash.rgb565
There is only 1 SPL that allows splash2 to be flashed. I don't remember which, but it says which in the bootflasher program.
If you don't have that SPL, you can change your animated screen by replacing the android-logo-mask.png and the android-logo-shine.png located in the framework-res.apk\assets\images folder. Resign and reflash your theme/rom.
which bootscreen are you trying to change? the static (i.e. G1 logo) boot screen, or the animation? For the animation, check my signature. For the static, sockpuppet has it right.
its not reading my phone nor lettin im havin trouble with the driver
if so im on gtalk [email protected]
I think first of all you need to begin here. Once you have this ready, then try the flash.

Point your driver select screen to you sdk\drivers folder.

I'm trying to create and flash a custom splash screen to my kaiser. I,ve created an image in photoshop, and saved it as a 24 bit bitmap. So far so good. Then I open the bmp in nb_image_converter and convert it to a .nb file. I then open up htcrt, and choose kaiser from the device drop-down. Leaving all fields (model ID, Country ID, version etc.) at their default values, I load the .nb file into the splash box and build the Ruu_Signed.nbh, choosing to pad the file with 0's. Everything seems to go well, but when I flash the file, all I get is a blank white splash screen. What am I doing wrong? I would really like to have a custom splash to show off!! HEEEEELP!!
Shameless bump.
Was searching for a solution to the same problem you had.
Did you manage to fix it in the mean time?
Did you convert .nb file again with SplashTool? I gues not
I took the following steps:
Created a 24 bit BMP file.
Used nbimg.exe to convert the file to splash.nb
After this I used NBHUtil.exe to create the .nbh file.
At the end I flashed the device using CustomRUU.
Strange thing is that when I try splash screens by other people the screen stays white. Flashing complete ROM now to see if it helps.
Update: probably screwed things up. Even when flashing a new ROM the splash screen stays white :S
It does show the information on the bottom while booting.. ...will continue searching

You haven't used SplashTool after converting bmp file to nb.! Read my previous post
Sorry 'bout this.. ..been looking for about 4 hours now for a solution.
Can't even think straight :S I'm having this problem with the Diamond so it should not be even in here!
Did tried the SplashTool btw everything looked successful but the splash screen stays white. Will post in the Diamond section now.
TnX 4 the help. Got the idea I kinda screwed up the splash part of the device.
Hello,
I've got from a friend who works in HTC a sample of the Touch diamond 2.
The phone is fully working but I would like to change one thing:
WHEN I SWITCH ON THE CELL, THE VERY FIRST SPLASH SCREEN THAT APPEARS SAYS: "SMART MOBILITY - TEST ONLY NOT FOR SALE".
Does anyone know a way to delete the sentence "TEST ONLY NOT FOR SALE"?
Thanks
..use an other rom! changing the splash screen menas a bit cooking!
Flash a official rom, that should fix it for you. Most cooked roms here dont include that first loadscreen.
I tried!
Guys, I have just installed a new ROM (EnergyROM_TOPAZ_20090921_StandardM2.5) but nothing changed..the "test only not for sale" sentence is still there!
Any other idea to replace the phrase?
Thanks
Maybe you could just look away when that phrase is displayed
Hi,
look at this Post. I.ve attached there a file to change the first screen
If you want to make your own look here's HOWTO (sorry, but only in german)
cheers
[HOWTO] change first SplashScreen
I,ve decided to write a Tutorial for this in (my poor) english. Even i don't know if someone needs this
Maybe some MOD can edit the title of the thread.
How To for the exchange of the initial SPLASH SCREEN
Important: I take no responsibility for any damage!
The image that appears when you turn on the device and then displays the versions of radio, ROM and protocol
HSPL is needed!
Here we go:
We need a 24BIT *.bmp in a Dimension 480x800
Extract the content from the attached file to c:\
Put your Picture in the new created Folder
With CMD (start menu, run, cmd) change in this Directory by typing: cd c:\Splash HD
Now type: nbimg -F *.bmp -p 18400 (* = name of your Picture) to start the Conversation
There’s now a new File in the Folder e.g. *.bmp.nb. Because we need a File with 786.432 byte it’s necessary to check the Dimension. If it doesn’t fit delete the File and go to next step.
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
To got the right Dimension you must use the Difference between with the following command: nbimg -F *.bmp -p 18400 (18400 is for Example, please use your calculated Value). Repeat Step 6. and 7. until you’ve got the right Dimension
When this is done type: htcrt.exe and then close CMD
[FONT="]Click on Build![/FONT]
[FONT="]
[/FONT]
Ignore warning by choosing Splash and finally click Build!once again
Now we have a flashable File.
rename *.nbh to TOPAIMG.nbh.
Copy TOPAIMG.NBH into the root dir of your Storage Card.
Be sure to have at least 30% of charge.
Turn off your device by using the Power Button.
Go to Boot loader mode. Push and hold Vol. Down + press Power button.
After that your device with have a white screen with text " Press to power button for continue upgrade or Press Volume down button for cancel upgrade , select press to power button and it will start upgrade Rom.
Reset

ok on further close scrutiny, the picture is rotated right 16 pixels and the bottom 100 pixels are not displayed (I made a grid to work that out, how sad am I)
The picture I'm using is this http://www.mobinations.com/en/cell-phone-wallpaper-preview.php?w=ford-mustang-[6].jpg
obviously I convert it to a 24bit bmp first!
Have saved bmp from jpeg in both mspaint and photoshop and have same result, are they to fault? what do you use to make the bmp?
Ok, i will look at the picture. In the meantime you could try the file below attached.

After my nightshift, i've downloaded the picture, converted it with MSPaint to 24BIT bmp and ... flashed it and all is ok didn't see any failure. Below is the result.
splash screen problem.
Hi, I tried all the files and methods above and the splash screen changes.
However the bootup sequence of my splash screen is now different, but it still didn't get rid of the carrier splash screen (China mobile) in my case. I'm a little stumped, so if anyone can give me a hand on this, it would be great.
After flashing it now boots as follows:
1) it boots up as the New picture after it has been flashed.
2) China Mobile carrier splash screen.
3) HTC splash screen.
and then it boots into the phone.
Is there a way to get rid of the splash screen for china mobile in the 2nd step?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Put the attached files in your windows folder with totalcommander or resco explorer and overwrite existing files.

HTC Original
Hi lcd4linux. Do you have the original HTC boot up .gif? You know the one where just the brand "HTC" with white letters comes up on a plain black background.
The Vodafone boot up is just too... red for my taste

still can't get rid of carrier splash screen
Hi all,
I still can't get rid of the carrier splash screen (China mobile). I want to either remove it or change it to something else...
I have tried everything on this forum.
I've used the above splash.zip, and also the topaimg file, and the very first splash screen changed to the pictures provided.
Also, I have used lcd4linux and bl4ckb1rd method for changing the default windows splash screen.
HOWEVER, what I want to do is change the boot screen that has the carrier splash screen... that doesn't change, even when I flash a new rom such as dutty's leo r4 rom, or the energy photon rom.
Again, the bootup sequence is:
1) 1st splash screen - Which has been changed using lcd4linux and the files provided by angdolphin by using a topaimg and flashing it.
2) Carrier splash screen (china mobile) - WHICH STILL DOESN'T CHANGE.
3) Windows 6.5 splash screen which has been changed to the splash screen provided by lcd4linux and bl4ckb1rd by copying 2 files into the windows folder.
I read somewhere one other way to change the carrier splash screen is to flash a stock rom. Any suggestions?
Stuck.
Thanks heaps everyone.

Yes flash the attached file, That should work !
well ive been trying to customize every little thing on my g1 to get the procedures down before i go and start programming for android, and ive been trying to find out how to change the bootsplash and all my searches have come up with is mixed results and so far i think ive pieced together the procedure for the abd method; but someone mentioned that you could change the bootsplash using a recovery mode update.zip, what would i need to do it and how? Because i really hate abd and fastboot (i blame ubuntu) because it a big pain in the ass.
You can change the animated (shiny android) screen with an update.zip. You cannot change the splash1 screen with an update. That one has to be done with fastboot.

How to which? Splash1 can be changed by using the bootscreen changer program listed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543095&highlight=bootscreen+3000
The animated screen can be changed by opening either your theme or your ROM and locating the framework.res.apk file. Open that and go to assets and then images and change the android-logo-mask and the android-logo-shine to what you want. resign it and flash. or push it with adb.
A search will bring all of this information up as these posts have been active in the past day or so.

question 1 will i need to have abd for it to work? (the exe and bat thing)
question 2 is just extract the apk change android-logo-mask and android-logo-shine (with a different picture but the same name)? and is logo mask boot 1 and logo shine boot 2? and this is done with out abd?
1. You will need adb for the splash1 change as it is done with fastboot.
2. Yes, change the logo mask and shine files keeping them named as they are now. They are for the animated screen. The mask basically sits on top of the shine file. The shine file kinda spins around behind it.

so could i just delete shine? because i just plan to have just a png picture thats it or do i have to put 2 of the same images there?
(sorry for all the questions i just it to work)
Not sure about deleting it. However if you have no transparent places on your logo mask, nothing will shine anyhow.
Thanks for clearing that up for me
Ok as some of you know i have started work on a pre dev'd rom and things are going ok with it.. But my question is... Boot Animation?? A friend and I have tried all different methods trying to get this thing working but just no luck at all..
Here's the details...
Rom: SenseLX v2.02
Firmware: 2.1 Sense
Radio: 2.22.28.25
Hboot: 1.33.0013d
Boot Screen: Stock HTC (Quietly Brilliant) screen with little green loading bar at bottom..
also has a boot sound which i can get working so thats not an issue..
Ok so now i have tried the custom boot screen i want on a different Sense rom and it worked fine!! i made no changes to anything in the bootanimatin.zip than placed it in my SenseLX rom in system/media. Now after flashing the rom, the custom boot screen and audio i chose work for about 2 seconds than the whole screen turns green... untill rom has fully booted.
A. im doing something wrong and it can be something stupid...
B. that little green loading bar on stock boot is causing me some serious problems!!!
(i unzipped the stock bootanimation.zip and seen there was NO green bar image on the .png files for the boot screen)
so is there something in the files for this rom to possibly turn that little green loading bar off??
Or does anyone know what it might bee?????
Thank you, sorry if i didn't provide enough details just ask and i will give..
nobody knows anything?
It didn't work?
Sent from my COS-DS using XDA App
naa sorry man lol we tried tho.. im thinking its that stupid green loading bar thats screwing with it.. thats why the screen turns green for the rest of the boot lol
PM me the bootanimation, i will try something.
hey ldrifta when you rezipped the bootanimation zip in back into the rom zip file, did u use the store compression method in winrar? Boot animations wont work if you store them compressed. when rezipping,all you have to do is right click on the bootanimation.zip, click add to archive, go to browse and look for the rom.zip file whereever you have it, and then look for where it says "compression method" and choose the "Store option", then reflash and see if it works.

=== nbimg v1.1
=== Convert NB <--> BMP splash screens
=== (c)2008 Pau Oliva - pof @ xda-developers
Usage: nbimg -F file.[nb|bmp]
thanks andy...i think thats the tool am using...
you need a good tool to crop any image in a desired px i.e 480/800
once u crop it, you can apply the image with the converter to get the nbh.
i use multiple cropping tools for compression.

those are called boot animations not boot splash screens...
Can I flash the boot screen by entering the bootloader with the nbh on my sd card? Or will it delete my system?
na it will not erase your system...get into tricolor and flash the splash
I tried flashing the image and all whent well but when it boots the image is blown up.
any sugestions
