Hello,
I have a DHD is bought from Germany with T-Mobile. It has a first splash screen is including t-mobile splash screen. I have flashed lots of roms but I can't solve this problem. How can we remove this?
Thanks
you need eng s-off, look in the themes section, there are 2 threads about changing the splash screen
It is eng-offed and rooted but when I changed my splash screen,firstly t-mobile splash showed up after than I have seen custom splash screen.
Did you flash splash1 or bootanimation(splash2)?
my dhd is (was ) a T-mobile device too and this method works 100%
how to remove tmobile splash screen from htc desire hd
Hello,
I have a bought HTC DESIRE HD from UK with T-Mobile. It's first splash screen is t-mobile and then htc. How can we remove t-mobile splash screen and please provide the troubleshooting steps so that it would help everyone ?
try boot flash pro from the market, its what I use whenever I want to change my splash screen. Pick the picture you want as your splash, press 1 button and jobs done

Okay, so my friend decided to 'debrand' his desire. It was a Virgin branded phone with the 1.15.405.4 CL155070 firmware installed. First he followed the debranding instructions on modaco.com to install the Generic ROM yet for some reason the Virgin splash screen remained. So I gave him a link to the 1.15.405.3 ROM I used (before .4 had come out) and the same thing, the Virgin splash screen remained.
I'm confused since my own HTC had an Orange splash screen and when I debranded it that was replaced with the 'Quietly Brilliant' splash screen.
I can get my head round the fact that the Virgin ROM is pretty much the Generic ROM, but can someone explain the splash screen situation to me please?
I am the aforementioned friend. Everything went through as expected. Would love to shed some light on this.
Cheers!
Shameless bump as we've rolled down a few pages, anyone have any ideas?
I have a virgin branded desire and I was able to replace my virgin media boot logo, but I rooted my phone to be able to do it.
The process is pretty simple, you need to be in the "recovery menu" (if you read up on how to root your phone, you'll find out how to get into this menu, it's the same menu you go into to flash rooted roms) and just flash a new boot image.zip from the SD card.

Not fussed about the actual branding of it, as their is very minimal branding from Virgin anyway. I'm more interested in being able to update with HTC's generic firmwares.

Im on generic rom coming from Virgin, If their were any softwarte updates i would try but their is not, so can't. lol.
Everytime i check it says i already have the latest firmware.
im guessing it will be ok, but obviously you WILL lose root if ya update.
Yep my theory (by numbers) is that virgin use the generic firmware so it will update at the same time as HTC.. the virgin splash screen must be stored deeper in root.
Its just strange how my orange splash was replaced with the quietly brilliant one when I flashed it with the generic.

it's happened to me too
i think that all brand rom have virgin boot animation inside, and it depend on the device imei number.so at first boot (while showing htc logo on white background) it determine which boot animation to load.
The rooted updates just don't update the boot image. That's all. You can update it manually (see my post above), but it doesn't matter, the logo is separate from the firmware, so if you flash the "generic" firmware, even though you'll still have the VM logo, you'll get the "generic" updates.
So did anyone manage to get the OTA to 2.2 once they put generic 1.21 firmware onto their virgin desires?? It worked fine for my orange debranded desire using the same method but my mates Virgin branded will not see the 2.2 OTA update like mine did???
My phone was already rooted with clockworkmod so I flashed it by hand. I was being too nervous when this thread was started. Rooting was a good thing.
Any of the unbranded RUUs will get rid of the branding. Custom ROMs (that you apply as zip files) won't update certain parts of the phone.
I've got an O2 Ireland-branded HTC Desire.
This means when I turn it on, the first thing you see is a big O2 logo. After a few seconds this disappears and changes to the the boot animation.
Flashing ROMs changes the boot animation, but it doesn't affect this initial logo.
Does anyone know how to change this logo?
I'm assuming it's stored on some part of the phone which is... hard to change? Is it part of HBOOT? Can it be replaced with the unbranded version?
if your phone is rooted then the easiest way would be to install root explorer and copy and paste the bootanimation zip file you want to use over the original one. or you can buy bootanimation changer app from market and do it that way............sudeki300
I know how to change the boot animation. But that's not the problem. What I'm trying to change is the logo that appears *before* the boot animation. You know, the thing you see the instant you turn your phone on.

Hi, I was in this case,the best way is to re-flash the droid with an original (you will have the HTC logo in place of your operator), after that you can use a custom rom.
Does anyone know which part exactly of the offical HTC update would replace this logo? Is it HBOOT? SPL? Something else?
Could this be extracted from the HTC update and flashed separately?
the only way i know of is to debrand the phone by rooting it and flashing a custom rom. or just get hold of a generic htc desire official rom and flash that....................sudeki300

the file in question is bootanimation.zip. It's not simple to extract it and re-compile the rom; 2 solutions:
- use a kitchen to create your own rom.
- try to replace bootanimation by another one, I try it since few days without success, I'm working on it because the HTC logo is no so sexy.
The original rom from HTC is RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865
Not that i know the answer, but just to clear things up:
-he is rooted.
-he has changed bootanimation.zip.
He is talking about the logo before bootanimation. Normally 'HTC' in green, in his case 'O2' (I guess in red).
The question is: where is that 'pre-bootanimation-logo' stored and possibly how to change it?
Flashing rom or flashing bootscreenanimation.zip does not work.

You will have to flash a stock rom and put up with the htc logo, as it stands we cannot flash the splash screen seperately because we do not have an unlocked spl yet

Hello sir - are you saying that I could get rid of the ugly Telstra boot splash screen and replace it with a stock HTC splash screen if I flashed a factory ROM? (Yes, I am talking about the boot splash, and NOT the boot animation).
Anything would be preferable to the splash of a carrier I am not even using.
If so, would I need to re-root, or would I have to de-root first, then re-root?

Is there any new solutions for that ?
The HTC logo is so ugly :/

The unrEVOked team should be coming out with an s-off HBOOT soon, which should allow you change this.

I need to return my Evo to sprint, but i have a custom splash.
Will the RUU take care of it, or do i need to find the stock splash screen which i cant find ANYWHERE!!
Help!
Moving to EVO area.
Why is this labeled "[resolved]"? I don't see an answer, and in fact, have the same question.
Yes using an RUU will Resotre your Boot and Splash Screens to the Stock Screens for that RUU
I have got my new Desire and have been trying to remove the ugly T-Mobile branding from my phone. I have used Unrevoked and flashed a new ROM successfully. However, I still have the T-Mobile splash screen (not boot screen). I understand to modify this I have to be S-OFF, but my bootloader says I am S-ON. Can I still change the splash via the recovery menu? Or is more hacking required? Also, does anyone have the stock HTC boot screen (and sound) in a recovery-flashable zip format.
Thanks guys!
bumping for fun and profit.
