Save the gif file to your /windows directory and then use Advanced Configuration to set the gif as start up gif.

I know this program, but i cant change there the bootscreen into a gif. Only bmp or png. I remember that on stripped 6.0 for htc hermes there is animated logo of AT&T logo, so it should be possible to change.

Hi my HTC TYtn2 comes with a cool animated boot/splash screen..
After the loading of the versions, etc...."it says smart mobility"
then a logo of animated htc will play before it goes to a static "windows mobile 6"
so if i were to flash a custom rom,. will it erase my animated pic?? anyone know where to get that cab or something before i flash..so if i dont like i can just flash the boot/splash screen
If u use the latest version of kaiser tweak u can disable the opening splash screen.
The animation is in the Windows Folder named "animated.gif". Its hidded so u have to unhide it with a application like Resco Explorer. Just backup the animated.gif file and place it back into the Windows Folder after flashing....

Excuse me for my ignorance, but can someone explain the process on how to replace the splash screen?

Easiest way would be to download Kaiser Tweak here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333898 be sure to get the latest xml file by Nikagl there's an option to disable the startup animation in it, along w/a bunch of other recommended settings.
Splashscreen replacement

Hi seree86, to replace the splashscreen by another do it this way:
Just make your picture 240x320 (or 320x320 for landscape and portrait booting), save as welcomehead.96.png and copy to \windows\ on the Kaiser.
Of course it would be useful to backup your original welcomehead.96.png before, so you can switch back if you want to.
It may be necessary to use Resco Explorer or the freeware app Total Commander, I'm not sure anymore if this worked with the "standard" file explorer.
For more information see following thread:

Have a nice weekend and a happy new year,

EDIT: To change your startup animation overwrite the the animated.gif in your \windows folder with one of the abovementioned file explorers. If you don't want to overwrite it copy your otherwise named GIF in \windows. Afterwards use a regisry editor like e.g. the freeware PHM Regedit, goto hklm\software\htc\startupanimation\GIFFile and edit the string to \windows\*filenameofanimation*.gif. You can also disable the startup animation the way brianlb described in the post above.
Got a little confusing, so I'm rewriting this post:
Here are a few boot and welcome splash screens I made (as well as a transparent PNG of the HTC logo that I drew from hand in case anyone wants it ... It's the fourth image down there, named transHTC.png).
Each one of these can be used as a welcome splash screen pretty easily ... All you have to do is rename the image to 'welcomehead.192.png" and stick it in the windows folder. You may run into permissions issues, but you can change the permissions on the file using something like Total Commander.
If you don't want to mess with permissions, I've included a cab file for the blue floral background + windows mobile 6.1 text image (the first image named welcomehead.192.png) called "splash.cab". Note: This cab will overwrite your current welcome splash screen image and can not be uninstalled (afterall, all it's doing is overwriting an image.) I can make other cabs for the other images upon request.
I've also included two roms (RAPHIMG.zip and HTC_logo_w.zip) that you can flash to replace the default boot splash screen. The first one, RAPHIMG.zip, contains the rom with the blue floral background and HTC logo while the second one, HTC_logo_w.zip, contains the plain white with HTC logo. Flash them the same way you'd flash other nbh files, either by using RUU or the SD card method. To perform the SD card method:
1) Unzip the zip file and rename the included nbh file to "RAPHIMG.NBH"
2) Put the RAPHIMG.NBH file in the root of your SD card.
3) Reset your device using the button on the bottom (next to the miniUSB port) while holding down the Volume Down button.
NOTE: This will put your device into the bootloader ... don't be alarmed!
4) Follow the prompts to flash the new rom (don't worry, it only affects the splash screen.)
5) When everything is done, reset the device again using the button on the bottom and stare in awe at your beautiful new splash screen.
Would it be possible for you to make one for the first bootscreen with the htc logo? Would be greatly appreciated , I just installed this one and its is Great! I am keeping it
I made a plain white one not too long ago over here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=465172
I'll make one with the same floral background but the HTC logo instead of the text tomorrow and package it up as a rom (splash only of course) so keep an eye out for it.
I'll make some more if there is an interest.
Can you please make a cab for your upcoming one
Made one myself... Not my image but I made the cab file for it.
VGA ONLY!
Can someone make one with the black default diamond background?

lotion said:
I got sick of my old splash screen so here's a new one. Just run splash.cab.
Note: This is the loading splash screen, not the boot splash. VGA, portrait only.
EDIT:
I added a matching boot screen and packaged it up as a rom (RAPHIMG.zip). You can flash it like you would any other ROM (it only overwrites the splash, everything else remains intact). The easiest way to flash it is as follows:
put RAPHIMG.NBH in the root of your SD card.
Hit the reset button on the bottom of your Touch Pro while holding the Volume Down button. You'll go into the bootloader.
Follow the prompts. When it's done flashing, hit the reset button again.
Oh, and one more just for kicks.
Here's a boot splash with just the HTC icon (HTC_logo_w.zip). I ended up drawing it by hand because I couldn't find one large enough for my liking.
I've also included the HTC icon I drew on a transparent background (the seemingly larger HTC logo below) in case anyone wants to use it. All I ask is that you give credit to me for drawing it.
And here's another welcome splash using the default manila background.

splash.cab is the blue background with the Windows Mobile 6.1 text.
I'll make cabs of the other ones tomorrow. You can always try renaming the images to welcomehead.192.png and putting them in your Windows folder in the meantime.
Do I need to flash HardSPL before I change my default splash screen by following the above directions? Does it remove the entire AT&T splash screen completely, including the 3g animation and everything? That would be great.

HardSPL is a requirement whenever you attempt to flash anything onto the phone. Both of the nbh files above will replace the ATT boot screen.
how can i flash it with RUU? i find only the .nbh-file...
Nice work thank you

Any RUU will do...you can find one on any of the ROM threads. It won't let me upload it here since it's an exe file. Beware that some anti-virus programs tend to see them as trojans -- they are not.

When used as a welcomehead, the image is not full screen. Does it have to be resized? BTW, I used the png version on the first page.

Nope, they're all 480x640 (VGA). Did you try to use the 4th image (transHTC.png)? If so, it's not meant to be used as a splash image ... That's just a copy of the HTC logo I drew in case others wanted to use it. Use the 3rd image (HTC_logo_w.png) instead.

No, I tried using the one with the diamond background (labeled welcomehead.192.2.png). It doesn't come up full screen. All I did was rename it, then replaced the one in the Windows directory.

Hi.
Is there anyway to put the xperia animation from the stock bootscreen into the roms installed from here? Also how to?
It's just that blank 5 seconds makes me feel uneasy.
I'm using Jack 2.1 lite if it makes a difference
Thanks.
Edit: its after the SE logo and before windows boot logo
Just clean SPLASH from your custom ROM and replace it with the stock one. Then save your 'nbh' rom file and flash it. You'll have a stock bootsplash screen.
You'll need stock boot splash and HTC Rom Editor.
download the zipfile, then extract the x1 animation to your phone memory\windows. then import "4bb051cd-9056-4e0a-a3e7-b08541f178f6.reg" to your registry by resco explore 2008's registry plugin then restart phone will show the cool animation after se logo^^

Hello foxcheng,
From what I see from your file, X1 uses HTC Animation (HTCAnimation.dll) to display the animated .gif. Is this right?
Hi, i installed a ROM that change the starting logo from htc (the one that plays a sound). Can i change that again without change ROM. I want to roolback to inicial htc logo.

You should just have to replace the file in the windows directory. In most ROMs the file is called animated.gif. I have attached a copy of the original logo in the Zip file attached. If you want to change the startup sound, I have attached the original sound file as well. Otherwise, you can do it in the kitchen when you cook your personalized ROM.
Oh yeah, Don't forget to rename the file to the same name as the file already in your windows folder. Tell it to overwrite the file! If it says that it cannot overwrite the file, then the file was locked when cooked, & you're SOL unless you can cook up your own ROM.
it's locked , thanks anyway
