getting on my nerves too.. want a nice bluefish over there... have figured it out?

Yep you need to flash a new rom because as far as I know thats the only way it can be changed since its written at the same time as the ROM. Tom's B&Bv3 has just changed mine from the o2 default to the HTC logo, ask him how he did it but I'm pretty sure you need a new ROM with the logo of your choice embedded.
PS: Don't think you can do the log seperately either but I'm sure a more knowledgable person will be along shortly

Totally not going for me.. just upgraded to wm6 and the new activesync... maybe that's the reason?

There was a way I heard of using the RUU and replacing a file with the new image you wanted for splash...
"Perhaps you should look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12898.
There is a great program on there for converting pictures to .nb files and also a CAB which, when run, will change the boot images.
This does require putting the splash1.nb and splash2.nb files into the /windows/ directory before running MDA3_bootimage_changer2.CAB,
but if you want to just run a CAB file you can just edit that CAB and place your own created splash1.nb and splash2.nb files
in it with the location set as /windows/ (I tried it with WinCE CAB Manager and this way works as well)."

It does depend on the rom, B&B v1 & 2 didn't update my boot screen but v3 did so maybe you've got an old version? Are you actually using the B&B rom at all? Not all rom updates change the boot screen, it depends on the chef if they include em in the first place

B&B? Did i miss something?
Tried two ways:
1: making the splash1 and splash2
2: tried RUU updating the splash, but fails, think it's the new activesync.
Did i mention that i'm trying this on a htc p3300?

Sorry, B&B is Black & Blue. Its the ROM that Tom Codon has been releasing and updating for the P3300\Artemis\Orbit.

It worked, but that vanilla version is with transparent background, it doesn't look good, and the fix for a black background change the battery icon for the headphone one so, i think it needs to be optimized to work in our phones

Hate to bring up old stuff but has anyone found a fix for this as of yet. I have tried Caulkins fix... Fresh's fix and a few others but none seem to work I am running Fresh 3.2... Any help would be appreciated

Bumping cause I only just discovered that menu unlocks and I hate it. I'm on Fresh 3.2 as well - I tried to flash the fix from Flipz's site and I got a boot loop Anyone know of a fix?

[Q] Power(Home) and Phone(Call) key not working

I ported Android Froyo 2.2 into my Tilt 2 about 2 weeks ago and it was working perfectly and all of a sudden my Phone and Power/Home(key on top) stopped working. In addition, when I hold the End/Power key it only gives me the option to Power Off phone, when before it gave me options to silence/vibrate. I tried searching but no luck... any suggestions?

BLAZN has a very old version of Froyo. The Power Button Ends Call option isn't in the rootfs.img. It's in the system.ext2. You should be able to get the option by upgrading to a newer Froyo system.ext2 like FRX03.

Ah, you're talking about Sovereign's update utility which is rolled into Reefer's packages. I can't say that I know a whole lot about that since I don't use it. There's a way to check within android however. Go to launcher and click on Settings. Next scroll all the way down to About phone and click on that. Finally, scroll down to Build number and post what it says for that.

Phone boots now, Android is running great thanks. My Phone key works now, but my Power button and End key have the same function, which is End call/Lock/Shutdown. Still have no Home key. I tried the rootfs-f22-20101115-b6303c2.img and the Settings->Accessibility->"Power Button Ends Call" option and didn't work.

It's a TON easier to just use spare parts to remap end to home.
The other method is not so easy, until we get a startup.txt option to change it.

Uh... who told you that? There's certain devices that have a wifi init issue, but it's not all of them.
Wifi has been working for a very long time... For all phones AFAIK, other than a few that had that init issue.

Typing from XDAndroid Tilt 2 and I can safely confirm that WIFI does work. Everything pretty much works including CAMERA and backlight.

Delete the ts-calibration file and boot again. Should force you to calibrate on first boot.
I heard some of the newer kernels cause issues with calibration - you should only have to ever calibrate once (assuming it's a good calibration) - just backup the file once you get a good one, and reuse it over and over.
So if you can't get it to calibrate, revert to an older kernel, get a good calib file, and save/reuse it.

It runs so slowly and freezes all the time.
What's wrong?

WinMo stays. When you soft reset (from the pin or pulling the battery) you will be brought back to WinMo. Then you can just run haret again, and you're back in Android.
There's a dual-boot app - if you wish, just don't ask for support here. Post in the thread related to the tool. It's called Gen.Y.

If you are GSM, force_cdma needs to =0, you are correct. Please change this value accordingly.
Perhaps we need to tear thru the startups and clean them up!

Perhaps you're not understanding what I'm asking of you.
From the first post, it sounds like you are running an ancient unsupported build.
I'm suggesting you download that build, use it, and install LauncherPro on it.

Im using XDAndroid2.2BLAZN.092810

Something's wrong with the set up because I just downloaded it from market and it d/l'd and installed fine. I know it's a PITA, but maybe try reformatting the card, reload Arrrghhh's stock FRX06, let it build a new data.img and then try reloading it again.

Well, when I searched for that (exactly) the second app made the most sense.
When I searched for 'launcherpro' (one word) I thought it would turn up less, but it turned up more... LP was still in the list, but like 6 down.
Download the one titled "LauncherPro". The others probably just have something related to LP in the description so it pops up... Welcome to search engines, w00t.
