[Q] Changing splash image / boot animation ( HBOOT 2.10 / 3.70 OTA ) - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! I rooted my Week old EVO that came with 2.10.0001 HBOOT and last night following the instructions on this thread and everything worked perfect, but Im having trouble changing the boot splash image and boot animation.
First, I tried using this method:
- Move the splash screen file (.rgb565) to sdk/tools folder
- Power off device
- Boot up into boot loader (hold volume down key while pressing power)
- Navigate to "FASTBOOT" with the volume keys and press the power button
- Plug device in (you'll see "FASTBOOT USB" highlighted in red)
- Open a command window in Windows (Windows key + r then type "cmd.exe")
- Prompt to sdk/tools
- Now type this into adb window to install splash screen:
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 evosplash1.rgb565
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But it gives me this error:
sending 'splash1' (750 KB)... OKAY
writing 'splash1'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And then tried this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9633485&postcount=6
But after the bootloader reads the PC36IMG.zip file it just goes back to the menu and does not give me the option to flash it.
Is it even possible to change the splash image with HBOOT 2.10??
And then my other issue is changing the boot animation. This is the one I want to use and used the procedure explained in the thread. It seems to go through fine but the default animation from the rom Im using keeps showing up. Is the file structure different on the new OTA or something (Im using VirusROM REVOlution Z RC1 PORT 1.34) ? Ive changed this on my old EVO with no problems.
Thanks for any help!

[Q] bricked htc desire

hi,
first, excuse my poor english
then, I have a problem with my dear desire :-(
I have a rooted desire with an oxygen gingerbread rom. I was using it in the subway, as usual (I was looking at some video on youtube), and it freeze, as it sometime happen. I remove the battery to shut it down, replace it, power back and... it didn't restart! It show the white screen with green HTC letters, Vibrates 7 Times, and nothing more!
I can go into Hboot, but then, when I select recovery (to flash a rom), the phone reboot, vibrate 7 times, and that's all.
I have try with and without sdcard and simcard, => exactly the same.
what can I do? thanks for answers
Bring your back to complete stock. Download stock ruu here:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
Boot your phone into fastboot mode and run the exe. When you get cid error, create goldcard with linux, put this in your desire and flash ruu again:

This is not the fastboot mode. To get your phone into fastboot, you have to start it with pressed back and power button until the white screen with the three androids at the bottom appears, where you can see "FASTBOOT" in red highlighted letters.

Hi,
I have no longer access to the boot loader; but I'm pretty sure that it is in fastboot since when I'm sending an img instead of hboot with fastboot.exe, it succeed to transfer and begin installation (but it fails with the "partition fails error", as the ruu file do)
Why can't you access bootloader/fastboot?

because when I boot my phone, pressing vol. down, back, or anything, it always start on the htc black screen. If I unplug the phone, I access to hardware information and below "RUU" is write in orange

You have to press and hold volume down/back button FIRST and then power button. Do you do this in this order? When I read your post, I understand it so, you first press power button and then volume down or back button.
sorry, yes I press the button before pressing power; I know how to be in fastboot: I ever use it. I can not now, but, as you can see, when the phone boot on this special htc ruu mode, it is in fact in fastboot:

[Q] Help rooting Wildfire S please

Hi All
Spent most of yesterday trying to root the good lady's phone, using http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1195275 Much more difficult than I thought! I have got as far as having unlocked the bootloader but when I try Flashing the Custom Recovery UI, I get "CID incorrect" Researched what this meant and have now managed to create a goldcard and have tried again with this card fitted in the phone but nothing seemed to happen so I copied the PG76.IMG file on to the sd card and tried again. This time I get some action the message i get is "Main version is older", please see attached image if anyone can help me out I would be most grateful. Many thanks.
Since you have unlocked it, download the recovery image of CWM and the root.zip. Then, considering you have the fastboot files, type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
Then boot into recovery and flash the root.zip from there. I'll give you more detailed instructions tomorrow, if you need them, since I'm on my phone now.

Hi Tyr Fifteen thanks for coming back to me. I have the files on the PC I am connected to and when I run the command:
Code:

the cmd window shows waiting for device and sits at that for ages >10 minutes?
The phone is telling me that it is in HBOOT USB PLUG highlighted in blue and also says FASTBOOT the same with a blue background. If I kill the cmd nothing still happens at the phone screen. Your help is much appreciated thanks.

After it shows HBOOT USB PLUG, it's highlighting FASTBOOT right? Press power and enter Fastboot mode.
The HBOOT USB PLUG should change to FASTBOOT USB. If it remains FASTBOOT, (re)install the drivers. It's waiting for the device to be in fastboot, it wont work in HBOOT mode.

I guess I must have not known that I needed to press the power button, the guides for rooting all assume a lot of knowledge that the new user needs, but does not have. Is there a guide that hand holds you through the whole process. I will try again when I have access to the phone this evening. If I do need to install the drivers, is there a guide I can refer to please?

For the drivers download and install htc sync. Then uninstall htc sync, if you wish. That's all. But since it shows HBOOT usb plug, I think the drivers are already installed.

Hi Tyr Fifteen
I seem to go from one issue to another, on a positive note you were right about the drivers as the phone was waiting to be in fastboot, when I hit the power button it went ahead and pushed the recovery image to the phone, at last! Now I show recovery version 5.0.2.8 and when I select "install zip from sdcard" I just see the CWM bowler hat and nothing happens? In fact CWM recovery does not respond if I select any of the options in the menu. I have to take out the battery before I can restart as normal. Any ideas please? Please see enclosed pictures showing menu and result of selection of any item
Maybe you should try it again I used this utilitie to root my phone a long time ago. It worked great.

I came across this tool before but as there was no info on how to use it, i did not bother. How is the phone connected and what are the prerequisites etc. Do I connect to the phone by usb and then put the phone in fast boot usb and run the batch file in the tool?
Connect your phone with your computer, activate usb-debugging in your setting and than start the "one click.bat". I hope, i could help.
Hi
I have just managed to download the correct Recovery image as suggested and it appears to have installed correctly.
Code:
c:\WFS>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4494 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.700s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 2.200s]
finished. total time: 3.900s
I have then removed the battery for a couple of minutes, restarted while holding down the volume minus.
I get the white screen showing hboot at the top highlighted in blue and fastboot highlighted in blue further down.
The sd card is then checked? and I can then select recovery and press the power button.
I then wait for the recovery options but all I am seeing is a white screen saying HTC followed by a black screen with all the four screen button lights on?
There is no mention of any recovery options at all.
Has something gone horribly wrong?

When did you buy the phone? I guess its 2012... Because that model is nasty. You need to flash a modified recovery for it. Search a topic in general section I think. You can't flash cm ROMs. only stock based ROMs, sadly. However, there are few 2012 lucky guys who can. Try that recovery and try installing cm9 or 10. If it works, good for you, and if it doesn't, oh well.
Good luck.

you have to also install the kernel for that rom to work out.
go and download a super sick kernel for CDMA version, rename the .img in boot.img, install android sdk, put the boot.img in the Android/android-sdk/platform-tools, go to bootloader, insert your usb cable - MAKE SURE YOUR BOOTLOADER SAYS "FASTBOOT USB" in red, open up a cmd (windows) and CD to your sdk directory like this
Example:
Code:
CD C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
When you are there, run this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
it should output something like
sending boot img.. okay
writing boot img.... okay
then when this is done, in CMD run this:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Or just use the toolkit provided in the forums.......go in bootloader and connect your mobile to PC.......then u should see the letters fastboot usb.......then flash the kernel using the program and your problem will be fixed

Well i just finished changing my account from Ricky Halo to xTractatorix and thank you for the reply. I just re-flashed the stock firmware casue i was kinda freaking out but now ill just re-unlock bootloader and root it and then follow those instructions adter i flash the ROM thankyou. I had no idea what i had done wrong.

[Q] Flashed recovery but can't boot into it?

I've followed the steps to unlock the boot and flash a new recovery via fastboot (tried both CWM and 4ext).
When I load up the boot menu (power + volume down) and select recovery, it just shows the HTC boot screen (white background, green text) and gets stuck until I remove the battery. I can still boot into the phone normally.
In the boot menu I see:

What exactly did you do to fastboot flash the recovery? Like, was the phone in fastboot mode? Did the computer recognize the command? Did you run it from the folder where the boot.img is saved on your computer?
Yeah I ran using a .bat file from a CWM guide I downloaded from xda . Entered fastboot ftom command prompt in windows and flashed from there. It reported both copying and flashing of the *.img file was "[OK]". Then I typed fastboot reboot and it loaded up ok.
However when I turned off the phone and used hardware buttons to enter the boot menu and choose recovery, it just hangs as I described in my first post.

What was this bat file? And was the phone in fastboot mode, that is, where you go to hboot and choose fastboot with the volume keys and select it with the power key?
Basically I was following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168500
And I got onto step 2 of rooting and that's where I'm stuck.
The *.bat file is the one from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474490.
I was following these instructions to flash the CWM recovery: http://theunlockr.com/2012/10/02/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-the-htc-desire-hd/
Was the phone in fastboot mode? Were your drivers installed properly (HTC Sync with phone unplugged)? Were you in the folder holding the recovery.img?
Fastboot is disabled, HTC drivers installed properly, phone in debug mode and recovery.img is in the same folder as the *.bat.
I should note that the Android version is 2.3.5 - is this a problem for flashing recovery?
