Hi thought i'd share this tut i have not seen many things on this.
# Note: I am not in anyway responsible if you brick your phone as this can be very dangerous Good Luck
First you need to flash a new spl version, you can go ahead without and try if it works but it's most likely not going to let you with out changing your spl to an unlocked one
Use the SPL below, flash it as if it were a rom, once flashed reboot it will boot into recovery again, leave it for a little while then hit reboot your phone should then boot up normally. View attachment update-hero-hboot-1.76.2007-signed.zip <-- (SPL)
Now either download this (Click here For Mirror's) (Splash Screen maker) to make your own splash screen out of an image or download one someone has already made (PM me if you want me to do a personalized one for you also include what you want on it and what you want it to say ), here is a cynageon mod one i made if you want to use it (extract the zip and its the .rgb565 file you want)

View attachment splash.zip
To make your own create an image with the correct resolution and open it with createG1slash.exe from the splash creator zip file you downloaded, then click convert, in the same folder the program is in you should now have a file either ending in .rgb565 or .nb it doesn't matter which one you have as long as you have one rename it to splash.(Then_whatever_your_extension_was) and move it in to your android sdk tools folder. Next open cmd and get to your android sdk tools folder in that. (Make sure your phone is turned on with usb debugging also on)
then in cmd type
adb-windows reboot bootloader
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
your phone should then boot in to fastbootmode let it do that then next type
fastboot flash splash1 splash.rgb565
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(or .nb instead of .rgb565 depending on what file type your file was)
If you get an error message doing the above and havent flashed the new SPL that means you will need to flash it as you have a locked SPL
Then lastly
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hope you enjoy your new splash screen
For the (almost) stock Splash Screen go here
(o'.')-o Q('.'Q) <--- lol

Maybe also supply a MD5 check thingy as Ive heard that playing with SPLs can lead to brickage issues if the download is corrupt.
But thanks for the share pal, bookmarked for future ref.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the info I will look for one tomorrow, your welcome

i've got one now but im wondering how would i use it with the attactched zip ??

So you need to get the MD5 check sum for the original file you have on your pc. Then just put that long code up in your post so when people download, they can check the MD5 on the file they have and cross reference to make sure it is exactly the same as your copy.

Ah okay thanks will do that asap

Thanks got the MD5 sum andput in op

Hello,

Nice pic Yeah sure will do it right away (btw just saying i don't know if having bright backgrounds will work i will test on my hero first then upload also i will do a couple for you like i did for Lord Lucan ) Oh and also just checking this is for hero just couldn't help notice the x10 bit

Here you go (i havent tested the red background one but the worst that will happen is you put it back into fastboot and flash a different one (i think))
If there not what you wanted just say and i'll do some more

Just one more.....
Is there anyway to flash original before selling the phone?

Yeah sure i will look around for the original then upload, How come, you selling your phone or is it a just in case situation

Here you go it's not exactly the original but you'd have to be very good to tell the difference

Brilliant thank you, yeah I occasionally swap to her x10, but this is for my hero
Sometimes the hero drives me so crazy, I jump on her x10 and use that for a while, but I can't help coming back to the Hero...

Original Diamond Splash/Boot set needed

So many Rom cookers change the splash, boot screens. I was wondering if someone had the original three...the first one just says touch diamond, the second is the animated HTC logo, and the third is ofcourse the wm 6.1 welcomehead. The first touch diamond one is the one I really needed.
Yes I need this too. Does anyone know how to dump splash screens? I can install a stock rom and then dump it. But only if someone can give me a guide I think it is different from other guides because this device is VGA. but anyways if someone can find it I will dump it.
Here is the 1st Splash
I seprated from other ROM. Use RUU to flash it.
Please unlock and backup before flash.

Managed to flash the 1st screen, but im having a problem with your welcomehead file, i cannot seem to find it when it is extracted? any ideas why?
Thanks so much guys, this was actually one of the steps I was stuck at in trying, for the first time, to flash a custom splash screen. I didn't like the ones in the cooked rms, so I wanted to make it simple to put my own after changing a ROM. I guess you guys want to see what I got so here they are. I also put them in a zip just in case someone liked them.

This file is not extracted, it is in "\Windows" and it is a part of the boot sequence.
Both files are those of the official HTC ROM 1.37.406.1

Sorry what i meant is, when i extracted it from the zip file i couldnt find the welcomehead file in windows XP.
But its alright i managed to locate it using a third party app. and re-save it and it appeared.

Ok !
Indeed, the file is hidden because it's a system file.
On Windows, you've to unhide it with file settings.
I modified the attribut of the file to make it easier to use.
Ok, got an o2 Diamond and just changed the splash screen with the .nbh from HERE.
But now the splash screen is from top down to 3/4 of the display the new one from HTC and the last 1/4 is the old splash from o2. Looks pretty ****ty
Anyone got an idea?

Download fastboot from that page, unzip, then open Terminal and chmod +x fastboot-mac, sudo mv fastboot-mac /usr/local/bin/fastboot, then follow the instructions from post #1.
Sir, you are the best. I have been wanting to ditch those annoying skateboard droids for awhile now. I tried doing it before but I can't ever change the image to the rgb565. Your bootscreens are pretty sweet too.

A splash screen is a screen that opens while something else is loaded that helps the user verify that they did in fact initiate an action (booting, opening photoshop, etc) like the grey Apple screen on a Mac or the Windows logo when you boot a PC. On your phone, the splash is the Androids on skateboards screen. You'd see it if you rebooted your phone.

I'm pretty sure the answer to this question is "yes" but do you have to be rooted to change the splash screen?
If so, is there a version of the 2.1 OTA that is rooted and will look and work just like stock?
Thanks

[JAN25][FLASHABLE BOOT SCREENS] android boot screens

Hi Wonderful HD2 Android Community.
Now that Android is running on NAND smooth enough to be a daily build, I decided to create some boot screens to remove every last trace of "Stockness" from my HD2.
I have created two boot screens to replace the standard white HTC (or operator) screen which appears when you first turn on your device, before MAGLDR starts.
These boot screens are a simple and classy. Sample JPEG images are attached below so you can see before you flash, along with the ZIP files for each boot screen.
Any boot screen I post has been tested by me on my own HD2, so there shouldn't be any issues. However, flash boot screens at your own risk. I do not take any responsibility for any damage to your device. Flashing boot screens voids your warranty.
Please note: I am hosting these files on my own server so I can track download numbers, so these are all direct links to the files. Not links to download sites. Safe to download at work

The zip files must be extracted. Do not try and install via CWM.
Please note, to flash boot screens, your phone needs to have HSPL2.08 installed, or installation will fail.
Instructions for Win Mo 6.5.x users (Flashing using CustomRuu.exe) - Not sure why you would want to use an Android boot screen if you are still running WinMo though.
* Make sure your battery is at 50 percent or greater before beginning.
* Whilst the device is in Windows Mobile, connect your HD2 via USB.
* Connect device with 'Windows Mobile Device Center'.
* Run the CustomRUU.exe (with administrative privileges)
* Press update
* Success!
Instructions for NAND Android/WP7 (Flashing using CustomRuu.exe)
* Make sure your battery is at 50 percent or greater before beginning.
* Completely power off the device (unplug USB connection if present)
* Press down the "Volume down" and "Power/End" button simultaneously.
* You should see a red, green,blue and white screen with the word "Serial" in the bottom.
* Connect your HD2 to the PC via USB (the word "Serial" should be replaced by "USB".
* Run the CustomRUU.exe (with administrative privileges)
* Press update
* Success!
I hope you like these boot screens. I will be adding more over time so stay posted.
If you appreciate my work, please use the "Thanks" button or if you feel inclined, consider a donation.
Thanks!

Very Nice hope you come out with more
is there a chance for us to replace your boot screen picture by another picture in that .zip file then?
I'm not sure what yo mean. If you create your own NBH file with the image you want to flash, you can use the CUSTOMRUU.EXE to flash it.
Great work dude, Keep it up.
Going to try these later, thanks a lot

I'm pretty sure that I've heard that the cyanogen skateboarding dude is integral to the initrd.gz file. You'd have to have a developer cook up another one for you. After that one, there is a bootanimation file that you can change yourself with root explorer or droid explorer.

[BOOT ANIMATION] Vaudeville Android - with Preview

I posted this over in the Vibrant forum, but wanted to share it with all of you. I have one other that I posted there that I'm redoing to include a shutdown animation as well. Let me know what you all think of this!
The zip is flashable through CWM on at least galaxy s phones and a mt4g, so I imagine it works on others, too.
Credit to jlbmgrnr for collaboration on the idea and packaging it.
- Standard disclaimer about me not being responsible for phones getting messed up goes here -
file: dancing-boot-anim.zip is just the dancing, without the fake apple bootscreen.
file: bootanim-dancing-edify.zip is flashable with CWM3

I love the vaudeville green man. Can you put up a version without the -unqualifiable- apple?
In 2011, it's not as if we still have fight to get the green man a seat at the table.
awesome boot animation man. already installed it to my HTC Desire HD. good thing it's 480-800 resolution by default. i thought i would spice it up by adding my own custom sound mp3 to go along with it. sound file link at the bottom of this post.for those with a DHD you can push the files through AndroidSDK adb with the following commands. for this instance i am using the rom LeeDROID 2.2.2. connect your dhd to your computer and make sure it is set to charge only and make sure debugging is set to on.
first download vaderville-boot-anim.zip and extract the contents to a folder on your computer. first go to system folder and then media folder and find the bootanimation.zip file. copy and paste the bootanimation.zip into the same folder where your adb.exe is located which is usually program files\android\android-sdk\platform-tools\. open up adb through your cmd prompt and execute the following commands to load the new boot animation.
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
also extract and put the android_audio.mp3 file into the same folder as adb so type:
adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local
now we test everything out by rebooting
adb reboot
if everything goes well, your dhd will reboot and play the awesome boot animation along with the "new york, new york" song by frank sinatra minus the voice. this tutorial can be applied to any android phone provided you know where your rom stores it's boot animation file and sound file.
thermanlee maybe you can ask jlbmgrnr to add this sound file to the package so it can be flashed through cwm. in the bootanimation.zip you can open up the desc.txt and change the resolution to fit your android phone and then save and flash it. enjoy
Awesome
Can has MDPI version pweez?
nice!!! good work mate...
Awesome! One of the things we were going to do is add sound, but we weren't sure how. Thanks for the heads up. I'll let him know if he hasn't already read this.

It may not, and I didn't even think about that. I'll look around tonight and see what I need to set up differently for CWM 3, and I'll repackage it if I find any info.

[MOD] Dark downanimation.zip

Hi!
I've made a dark downanimation.zip (animation while phone is switching off) to replace the stock one from HTC. It's like the original one, but on dark background, to go with the dark splash screen and bootanimation that's floating around in the ARHD rom thread. Tested in my Desire HD (480x800). Don't know if someone else had already made this, but I couldn't find any...

Thank you all! Probably you're looking for it in the SD card. In root explorer, select the ".." to go up a level and the system folder is there. Don't forget to select "mount r/w" before pasting the file.
Absolutely awesome downanimation. Using it now!
This one should be flashable, havnt had chance to try it yet myself though so let me know and Ill remake it if not.
Quick splash screen question, are they 'permanent' or do they revert back to the white HTC every time I reflash?
I flash roms quite a lot and usually incorporate boot/down anis in the rom cleaner script. Never dealt with splash screens before.
Cheers

As far as I know, it reverts back. Thanks for the flashable zip, I'll try it later and report.
EDIT: Working flashable ZIP! Adding it to the first post now, thanks!
Bummer. Gonna have to see about getting the cleaner script set up to flash the splash as well then, cuz I really like the look of this one

Well, I'm 99% positive it works. It depends on the ROM and screen resolution. Combination ARHD + [480x800] works!
Looks great on my HTC ThunderBolt
Thx looks sweet
Could you please link "dark splash screen and bootanimation that's floating around in the ARHD rom thread"

Nice one looks alot better now thx for share & too creators.
Sent from my DHD using tapalagatalk....
Thanks, love the green on black.
This is absolutely looking great. Unfortunately i m using HD2 and not-a-big fan of android OS yet. until then i wil have to stare at the animation from my laptop / pc wondering if you would release the same for 480x800 device. jus the png file will suffice...
xD
good job mate... hope you can build start up black screen like this.. =)
