[Bootscreen] Black/White Quietly Brilliant

Hi everyone, I've been searching around for the Quietly Brilliant bootscreen and it was relatively easy to find but as the Hero boots by default with the Hero logo (which cannot be easily replaced with another) in black background, the white bootscreen looks out of place.
Then, I found a black version made by watzone69. But, the green HTC logo really looked out of place, hence I decided to make my own version instead. At the same time, I've also recompiled the existing white version into the original format that the stock bootscreen was in (including boot2.gif).
I can't post previews because the forum is being a *****:
"To prevent spam to the forums, new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages. All new user accounts will be verified by moderators before this restriction is removed."
I have attached both versions with/without sounds. Do note that these are only compatible with Heros that are still running on cupcake. If anyone would like to convert them into 2.1 formats, please go ahead. This is because I'm still on MCR 3.2 and won't be updating to 2.1 until MCR 4.0 is completed.

On VillainROM 12 i get to install it, but it still shows the villainrom bootscreen. Any ideas how could I get it working? Thanks!!

In order to use boot screens from 1.5 on 2.1 ROMs, you need to remove the current bootanimation.zip from the phone.
(On Villain ROMs, it is located in /system/customize/resource/ - others may vary)
Then flash the downloaded file; this puts the folder 'bootscreen' into /system/media/
If you want the original one with the little Android hiding behind 'HERO' download and flash the attachment below this post.

Despite what others say, the old (1.5) format bootscreens do work in 2.1, however, I'm yet to get the bootsound working.

Great work man, I love the 1.5 boot screen

Can now check my thread
But yeah i agreee the Quietly bootscrren looks out of place So this should look realy great

Not bad, pretty cool
I remembered I saw a orginal white bootscreen somewhere else.

Works awesome on the gratia port if you folow the instructions on post 4 its faster in boot, and the ugly boot animation is gone
Though the bootanimation.zip is not in the /system/resource part but in the /system/media folder, remove that and then flash the zip file

[BOOT ANIMATION + BOOT SPLASH] Blackboard Bootscreen/Splash

Here's my first bootanimation and splash screen.
You can get my file here. (Sorry for let you wait. I couldn't upload my file on here.)
HOW-TO (BOOTANIMATION - bootanimation.zip) (KR_KT RUU ROM USER):
I don't know where other users should put it, But if you're Korean-KT version user,
use Root explorer to replace '/system/customize/resource/KT_bootanimation.zip' with my file. (CASE-SENSITIVE! You should rename it exactly same as original one.)
And change permission to rw-r--r--. (User:Read+Write, Group:Read, Others:Read)
HOW-TO (BOOTSPLASH - splash.bmp):
Connect DHD to your PC.
Run Android Flasher and check 'Splash'.
Click Begin and select my file.
You can get Android Flasher here.
(Thanks to developer of Android Flasher )
I hope you like it
If I have any writing mistake in this post, I'm sorry
I don't have good English skill.

You need to replace the original boot animation with this one using root explorer. The original can be found in system/media.
The splash file can be added using the android flasher.

Thanks for your help, I can change the boot animation that's no problem, its the splash which I can't change, android flasher just does not work with my phone, every time I use it it gives me a error and either gets jammed or does nothing. Thanks.

i have tried using android flasher but still error..
can u show how to use it..blur

Turn USB Debugging on. And install HTC Sync and Driver.
Then Flash it with Android Flasher. (It's not recommended to flash bootanimation with Android Flasher. Just flash Splash screen with that.)

beautiful

Superb
Thanks

Couldn't get it to work on Inspire 4g .... Does not give any error nor any message on the phone.

on my phone USB debugging is always on and I have not tried boot animation but I am/was taking about splash screen.

not working on my Desire HD. I tried with different splashes and it said it flashed them successfully each time but nope. Still seeing HTC when I turn my phone on.

+1 the same thing

I don't know what is the reason, but in my case it worked very well... Even though when I wasn't using original ROM or Sense ROM.

bootanimation question in swiftdroid

Hey everyone, i just created a boot animation for my GT540, im a big fan of swiftdroid, anyway... heres my problem
i moved it to Root://System/Media
So i have 2parts in my bootanimation
Part0 which plays only 1 time and goes first:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Part1 which loops and goes after part0:
Everything works good and i really like my work, but the problem is, I see Default Swiftdroid logo at the start for like 10sec, and only after few seconds my animations pops up, is there anyway to remove the Default swiftdroid logo so my new animation would replace the Default swiftdroid logo completely ?
If you guys can help me, ill provide link of my animation, and instructions how to install it :S
a video will describe my problem better ( sorry for low quality, i just didnt had a better camera to film it )
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOtODDxYOUw my animation starts only at ~0:45sec

The swiftdroid logo is held in the kernel but if i remember there is a way to replace on the htc g1 ill have a look for you.

i dont know if it just on my computer but it look to me that part1 coud cause someone an epileptic fit.
@eoghan2t7
it would involve using the dump_image binay to extranct the boot.img. then decompiling it, replacing the image(i think it in the ram disk which also needs decompiling separatle), then recompiling boot.img and flashing it.

Does the images flash black/white to you ? :s

It is the initlogo.rle file that is shown on boot, it is in the root of the ramdisk. Just use dsixda's Android Kitchen to extract the boot.img file, much easier than manually doing it.

Thanks man, ill try it!

BTW, .rle is a bitmap-type file, but I think it is compressed, Paint and many other conventional tools cant open it, but I was looking somewhere and did find a converter, i'll have to check that out.

The name of the program you need is called to565. It will need to be compiled, but here is some info:

[Splash Screen] Incredible S AOSP 4.1/4.2 - S-OFF

Hi all,
I made myself a new start-up splashscreen to celebrate the evermore stable Android 4.1 AOSP ROMs which are coming through at the moment, and I thought I’d share it with you.
Then I made a slight adjustment in anticipation of the imminent 4.2 release.
And then, as I had the graphics to hand, I made them into a wallpaper in case anyone would like it.
For those who believe that the HTC Incredible S now has a new lease of life with Jelly Bean, these are for you...
The Splash Screens look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
INSTRUCTIONS – S-OFF ONLY (sorry S-ON users!)
You must unzip the attached folders – they are not flashable in recovery! - the Splash Screen and wallpapers are in here too.
Get just the 'splash1.img' file from within the attached .zip and place it in your adb/fastboot tools folder on your PC (google it if you don’t know what this means.).
Then go to CMD prompt on your PC and set CD to the tools folder.
Connect your phone to your PC via USB.
Set your phone in ‘USB bootloader’ mode, then type in at CMD prompt on your PC:
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img
Wait for the confirmation in CMD (takes less than a second normally).
And that’s it, job done! :fingers-crossed: Reboot to see it appear before the bootanimation.
EDIT: Added realigned wallpapers so the text isn't behind the buttons - see attached 'edited' zip for all originals repositioned!
If you want to revert back to the original white HTC Splash Screen at any point, please find it also attached. Follow the exact same instructions as above to install it.
Any tweaks or requests for variations of the above images ‘may be considered’ if, a) I understand what you want, b) I am physically capable of doing it (I’m no expert!), and c) if I get time!
Please use my files as required.
In case you wondered, I'll probably not do a new bootanimation as the standard CyanogenMod animation is and doesn’t need changing!

Any screens?

The Splash Screens look like the images in the first post...
If you want to see a wallpaper, they all look like this...
...but say either 4.1 or 4.2, and there is a bright one and a 50% shaded one of each.

If anyone else has a template or could do this for me it'd be useful... thanks!
I could research it but haven't got time at the moment...

Why dont you just use Android Flasher for the PC
Make your BMP image, at the right size for you phone
Then select Splash in Android Flasher
Select image
Flash done
